My Name Is Earl

Airs: Tuesdays on NBC (30 mins)
Premiers: September 20, 2005
Genre: Comedy

Cast:Eddie Steeples as Darnell, Nadine Velazquez as Catalina, Ethan Suplee as Randy, Jason Lee as Earl, and Jaime Pressly as Joy.

Storyline:Earl’s life has been full of poor choices and mistakes, but after winning a small lottery jackpot he has an epiphany and vows to change his ways. Upon discovering that he is the holder of a winning ticket, Earl is hit by a car and the ticket blows out of his limp hand as he lies unconscious in the street. While recovering in the hospital and watching television, Earl has a karmic epiphany, thanks to Carson Daly, who attributes his success to doing good for others. A light bulb goes off in Earl’s dim head and he sets out to right every wrong he has done starting with a grade school geek.

It's on opposite House, so I'm going to have to pass. I'm a little disappointed, but I'll get over it.

Then how would I watch House?

Anyway, my rabbit ears don't pick up that channel too well.

When I was a kid that's how I used to try to watch porn on Skinamax.

"Is that a boob? I think that's a boob."

C'mon, Stout - it's only a 1/2 hour show. Go to the electronics department in any store and tune in. :thumbup:

This show looks funny. I love Lee as an actor, though I haven't liked some of his movies. Too bad I don't have TV :(

I thought the show was funny, Jason Lee was great a usual, but I have a feeling it will fail. I loved the line, "I know where your mom parks her house."

I liked it.

I think it will get better as it goes along if it has a chance. They have a long list of story lines as he trys to make things right with everyone he f'ed over. They should be able to keep it fresh.

I loved the show, absolutely loved it. Well shot, funny, different. It is reminding me of a very jacked up "Quantum Leap" where Earl needs to "put things right" in several different situations.

Great lines in this one too:

Muscles can't buy Mad Dog.

Ok, a Homosexual American.

Oh, you know Carson Daly too?

Carson Daly, who is he? Is he some kind of spiritual leader? A holy man?

Hey Earl. Hey crab-man.





And the brother, the very fat guy from Remember the Titans...he's lost a ton of weight. And he's funny.

Very well acted, if ridiculous, show.
