First episde was terrific. The highlight was definitely Mason of this episode. The ending was really, really sad. It was so sad to see

Spoiler

Mason go back to being a depressed booze hound again after seeing him so charismatic earlier on in the show.

Also, I hate George's mom. She's a fuckin' bitch;

Spoiler

I'm glad they're getting divorced

I love the show. But you can download up to episode 5 already! Still watched it though so the show can get ratings. I love the show, hoping for Season 3 to get the go ahead.

 

[AlphaSnake]

There's already 5 episodes of Season 2 on the net!?!? You've got to be kidding me...

BTW: Ellen Muth has an unusual adorable quality to her. I'd hit it.

They went up a week before the premiere.

 

[AlphaSnake]

I don't see them on IRC. Where are you guys getting them from?

 

[DrForester]

Like the frist epsidoe, but it lacked the comedy I enjoyed, It seemed to serious rather than have the nice balance of serious and comedy. I did feel sorry for Mason though.

The 2nd episode made up for that. Roxy shooting mason in the foot just about had me on the floor. Was funny, serious, and shows me more and more why I like Rube so much, aside from being Indigo Montoya. Wonder how long it takes before someone finds out (Or lets him know they found out already) that mason's drinking again.

I'd also like to know where these episodes have popped up.

SPOILER TAGS! COME ON, MAN! Thank God I only read that first line! ARGH!

 

[AlphaSnake]

UGO: Working with Mandy Patinkin, do you ever try to get him to say, "Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."?

EM: Oh, no! That's all he hears, so I leave that out.

LOL!

Forester: Check PM, brah.

 

[AlphaSnake]

Just saw episode 2 (still can't find those episodes online!) and Dead Like Me has quickly become my favorite series of all time.

 

[BuddyC]

The series just moves too slow for me: George is essentially the exact same person she was at the beginning of S1. It's looking like S2 might change that up soon, so here's hoping.

 

[golem]

im still working my way through the season1 dvd but this show is really good... i didnt really get into it till i watched the first eps though

 

[AlphaSnake]

So far season 2 is rocking.

Spoiler

Mason and Daisy made out.

Mason is such a fucking riot, seriously. He's definitely the funniest character of the show. Jasmine Guy plays her part better and better with every episode; God bless her. Rube...I think we're gonna' see a new side of Rube soon. A side we'd never expect to see, and I can't wait. George is definitely maturing, she seems to be getting past the fact that she's dead. And Daisy...Daisy's trying hard to find herself. Definitely not the show's deepest character, but still interesting. She's fucking beautiful too.

 

[Paradox]

Yepp, I love this show.

 

[SKluck]

Show fucking rocks. I remember seeing commercials and whatnot when it first started season 1, but I didn't have showtime. But season 2, shit, I love this show. I need to get and watch Season 1 ASAP. My precious Wonderfalls and Firefly are gone, this is like a spiritual successor.

 

[AlphaSnake]

First off: Eric McCormack = awesome. I've always enjoyed his acting and he's downright terrific on the show right now. I absolutely detest his character and I pray to God Ray gets his from Mason when the time is right.

Which leads me to Mason...George seems to have settled down. She's accepted the fact that she's a reaper. She's accepted her role. Meanwhile it seems as if Mason is about to unravel. Mason is very subtley developing. His last line to Daisy in the last episode damn near made my heart crack. For some unexplainable reason, I really, really feel Mason's pain. I choked back a tear when Daisy completely blew him off. I think a lot of it has to do with his facial expressions too. Callum Blue's acting is fantastic.

Daisy herself seems to be lost. She's lost beyond hope and the thought of a powerful man wanting her rekindles her former days as a potential star on the rise. She's no longer the platinum blonde airhead she was at the start of her run on the show, she's matured dramatically.

And like I predicted earlier, we're slowly getting details about Rube's past life. I knew this season would sort of open Rube up and show the viewers what he's made of.

The only one left is Roxy. We know absolutely nothing about her. She's so hard headed and punchy -- I love it. I wonder when we'll find something out about her.

God this show is the best.

 

[rc213]

This show does indeed rock and I wanna hit George's Mom ALL-NIGHT-LONG! OH-YEAH!

 

[AlphaSnake]

Laura Harris (Daisy) is where it's at.

Protip: Google is your friend. Use it. =D

 

[Tommie Hu$tle]

+10 to AlphaSnake for the protip reference.

 

[rc213]

I find myself paying more attention to George over Daisy, cant figure out why. There's something about her...

 

[AlphaSnake]

Bump. Talk!

 

[AlphaSnake]

Hahaha. The last episode rocked. The ending was great! Go Mason!

 

[Killthee]

Spoiler

About fucking time they started answering some questions.

 

[AlphaSnake]

Spoiler

I can't wait until the next season. I will flip out if George and Joy cross paths in Happy Time. Seriously, that'll be an event to remember. I also like how we finally get some answers regarding the deaths in show. Apparently, there are various group of reapers; death from natural causes, animal related deaths, gruesome/freakish deaths (group where George and co. fall) and etc. I certainly didn't expect to see Ray get murdered by Mason...but hey, I hated him. I love how a graveling came out of him and not a soul.

Best. Show. Ever.

Spoiler

You didn't know there were different groups of reapers? They talked about it in the very first episode. What group Rube ran, and George would join. Very fucked up about the graveling, so this is how gravelings are "born"? The thing is Daisy knew this, Rube talked earlier in the episode how she was involved with living men.

Spoiler

I guess it completely slipped my mind. I've always wondered why they had such weird reaps...always these freakish accidents and stuff. And yeah, so is that how gravelings are created? When a reaper kills someone without taking their soul? Or when a reaper gets physically involved with a human? I was just a bit lost their.

Spoiler

Nope. When a reaper doesn't reap the soul before the death they feel the pain of death and are trapped in their body until they're reaped. George refused to reap in one of the early episodes and had this happened to one of her reaps. From what I understood a graveling is created when a evil man dies. Instead of going to where ever the hell the blue light takes them or staying and reaping they become gravelings.

Yeah, I remember the one where George chose to accidentally miss her reap and the guy died with his soul intact. That was funny. She then reaped him in the morgue. Oh, and the bluelight is their personal heaven, btw. Wherever they wish for it to take them, that's where they go.

 

[DrForester]

Spoiler

i don't think he became a gravling cause he was evil, I think it was becasue he wasn't supposed to die then. Mason and Daisy got involved with the living and ended up killing someone before their time. They've reaped evil people before, like when they went to the office where someone shot all his coworkers then himself, one of them swiped the shooters soul

Spoiler

But the premise of the show revolves around everyone having a time card related to their death. It could be a plot hole...but somehow I doubt it.

 

[DrForester]

So tonight was the season finale.

Kind of wish they spread it out a bit more, they showeda new epiosde every week and now it's going to be next summer before we see new episodes.

Finale was good, the whole season did a nice job of brining out the characters a whole lot. Finaly got Rube's backstory.

Spoiler

liked how reggie found out about George

 

[SKluck]

Sucks the cable/pay shows only last for 15 episodes or less.

Thought there was going to be 16 episodes. Damn.

(Haven't seen Haunted yet)

 

[AlphaSnake]

That ending was great.

Spoiler

Reggie saw George!

For the millionth time: best. show. ever!

 

[SKluck]

Anyone catch Huff? Taking DLM's time slot for the winter. I saw the first episode and it was interesting I suppose... But I'm a fan of Hank Azaria.

 

[Incognito]

My parents have been raving about this show, and I recently purchased ShowtimeOnDemand and it lists quite a few "Dead Like Me" episodes.

So I should watch?

 

[DrForester]

those are all the season 2 episodes, the first episode has a decent rundown of the frist season, but you might be a bit lost to some of the broader details of the show.
