Wonderfalls is a great show as well, but it can't be watched piecemeal, I've decided; especially not interspersed with Dead Like Me.
Wonderfalls should be watched in bursts, several episodes at a time. It *does* take a while to get going; the first couple of episodes were only so-so. However, I'd say that just about everything after "Crime Dog" is golden.

The season 2 premier wasn't all that great. But, the other two were good, still have one more good.
And they mentioned Albany. I like, totally live there. *guffaw*
I forgot how funny Crystal's character is,

Ha! I love Crystal. "I really like your friend Roxie..."
Aw man... I really want season 2. My friend said his brother got him season 1 for like $10 so he's going to ask if he can get me season 2 for the same.

I think the funniest moment of Dead Like Me that I saw was in a bar. The main character (I never remember names well) and Daisy were standing up to do karioke and just as she said "I lost my virginity!" the microphone turned on and the whole bar heard... she she improv.ed a song about loosing her virginity.

Stupid spelling mistakes. At least it was a word, 
$10 bucks would be hella awesome! The price has really come down though in retail stores, by like 20 bucks. Or at least on their websites.

Now I'm jealous,
At 4 bucks for each disk to rent, it would probably just be worth it to buy. But meh, I'm lazy about that kind of stuff.

I already opened it and everything, though. The thing I thought of was to break one of the DVDs... take it back and say it was broken. But... I'm not sure.

I guess you could scratch one with something. But, that doesn't sound very legal,

Yes... I suppose I'd have guilt. And then I would get reaped, fill someone's quota, and have to be a reaper living with the guilt of scratching a DVD... and being a liar just to get free stuff. And... stuff.

You could join the police force though after you died, to make up for it.

I could. But then I would still be unsatified with my life because I hadn't taken advantage of living life while I had it. And I would still be mad about the leg warmers.

Indeed. Sounds like a no-win situation. Oh well. That leg warmers thing was so sadishly weird. I can't even imagine my sister (that doesn't exist) killing me over socks. But, I guess peeps do all kinds of crazy things.

I guess he has the fact that he was drunk/high on his side, but I can't even imagine doing that to myself when I'm drunk/high. Not that I usually am either, of course. Uh... But yeah, I get a headache just thinking about it.

I'm still waiting patiently to learn about Rube's death. From that picture in his wallet, I was guessing Civil War era... and that money too.

Well, if his daughter is still alive, then I'm assuming it would have to be later than the late 1800s. Since they keep bringing that storyline up and all.

$32 (tax included) at Best Buy. Which isn't bad. Season 1 was listed there for $50. BUt.. then again, I had been paying $107 for Voyager seasons last year... so... maybe I'm biased.
