Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

RaspberryLucozade I really did try my hardest to get into this show but each and every time I would just come away feeling bored and irritated. I find it tedious and completely lacking in subtlety and suspension. How it ever got beyond the commission stage is beyond me.Georgina 'Georgia' Lass ( Ellen Muth ) is an awkward cynical teenage girl whose life is empty and worthless. One day, she is crushed to death after being struck from a falling toilet bowl. She is then revived as a grim reaper by a team of fellow reapers who include the smug Rube ( Mandy Patatkin ), the dim-witted Mason ( Callum Blue ), the hard-hearted Roxy ( Jasmine Guy ) and the loud and vindictive Betty ( Rebecca Gayheart ).The death of Georgia has a profound affect on her parents, Joy ( Cynthia Stevenson ) and Clancy ( Greg Kean ), who relationship is on stony ground. Georgia's sister Reggie ( Britt McKillip ) is also affected by her sibling's death, so much so that she goes through a phase of stealing toilet seats for sometime thereafter.Ellen Muth irritated me as the gawky Georgia. She was devoid of any emotion whatsoever, and the rest of the cast were just plain boring. The biggest offender though in the cast was Mandy Patatkin as Rube. His character's arrogance and intolerance towards people was really too much for me. For instance, there was a scene in one episode where in an airport waiting area, his patience towards the repeated cries from a baby snapped, to which he loudly exclaimed: ''I'm gonna kill that fuckin' baby!''. That was my cue to stop watching.Two seasons were made, which was two too many for me. I'm sorry if you like the show and do not agree with my harsh review, but it really just did not click with me at all!

tapio_hietamaki 'Dead Like Me' perfectly captures that early 2000's cynical comedy style. It's a dark comedy, but not too dark to be uncomfortable. It starts with the main girl getting squashed by a falling toilet seat, and instead of moving onto the next world she is recruited as a grim reaper to collect the souls of others.The cast consists of the other reapers - all rather eccentric characters who don't take their jobs as collectors of souls very seriously - and Georgia's grieving family. The episodes are a mix of stand-alone and longer story arcs - I don't recommend skipping episodes, but you won't be lost even if you do.

ElessarAndurilS Dead like me was a quirky show that made me laugh at a dark side of life. 2 seasons was short, but I'm not sure I could have watched more. The characters simply were, no attempt to develop them was made and while I found it entertaining after 2 years I was OK there wasn't a third. It had some unique thing about it. Georgia's little sister torturing her parents was funny as was her generally cynical humor. One of those shows that I'm glad I got to stream for free because I wouldn't have watched it on TV and never have paid to see it specifically. But with it there to watch it was worth watching and gave me some laughs.

gopal4320-840-668506 I haven't quite figured out why I like this show but I think it's because of Ellen Muth and, of course, the excellent writing. Ellen Muth, who plays the lead character George who seems to have almost no muscles in her face, somehow projects a humanity into the show without seeming to do anything. It's fun watching her adventures as she seems to stumble through "life" from one death to the next without ever falling. I find myself pulling for everyone in the show to pull off whatever they're trying to pull off, even if it's a little sleazy, and always look forward to the next episode. Most of the characters are people I didn't care much for at first but as the writers revealed who they really are I came to love.The show opens with George moving towards her death and that death, in all its spooky, unorthodox glory set the stage for the rest of the showI'm quite disappointed this worthy show only made it through two seasons. I could have enjoyed the adventures of George for years.
