"My Name is Earl" season premiere, 9-21-06

Can’t wait - tonight’s the night! Earl, Randy, Joy, Darnell, Catalina, Patty the Daytime Whore and all of our favorite wacky Camden County characters return. According to our local newspaper’s TV listings, Earl sides with Joy in a dispute she has with Darnell, and an entertainment center doesn’t work out the way anyone expects.

Hope they avoid sophomore slump. I’m definitely looking forward to it…

C’mon back after the show to critique or gush.

Goddammit, I’m going to be out late tonight and I didn’t set the VCR. I thought it was next week . . .

Squeee!! I’m so excited!

I heard the Season 1 DVD set is quite good, so I’ll be picking it up today on my way home. I rarely but TV series, but every episode I remember is worth revisiting (and Greg Garcia, who made the best Emmy speech a few weeks ago, apparently has some equally good commentaries with cast & co.).

For the “Dad’s Car” episode, they have a commentary by Natalie Garcia, Mary Buckland, Carol Lee, and Debbie Suplee; the mothers of Greg, Marc, Jason, and Ethan.

There’s also an “alternative” pilot episode where the hospitalized Earl switchs channels from Carson Daly to an episode of Family Guy and decides to devote his life to following Stewie Griffin’s advice to seek vengeance on everyone who ever messed with him.

Bless you for starting this thread early on in the day! If I hadn’t seen it I wouldn’t have known to watch tonight!

The DVDs are out? Sweet, I missed one show last season, I’m hoping I don’t miss any this one. I can’t wait for tonight, but for some reason I’m thinking the baby will be awake until 8:10.

I’ll send you a dozen roses if you’ll call Olivia de Havilland and ask her to record it for you.

I like that it’s clarified she’s not just any old whore, but the ‘daytime’ whore.
:smiley:

Thanks Elendil’s Heir, I did not realize the start was tonight.
8pm EST by the way. I’m glad I checked the listings.

I’m shocked that Eve evens watches Earl. It seems so beneath her.
I can just imagine her looking down her nose at Joy and saying, “Well, I never…”

They remind me of the folks I knew when Ah dun lived in Bawlmer, hun . . .

:rolleyes: Oh, believe me, I know too many people that are just like the characters on Earl. I don’t know any Daytime Hookers, but I know lots of Earls and Joys.

Does anyone else see the words “My Name is Earl” and start singing the PRince song, “My Name is Prince” only with the name Earl instead of Prince?

Oh. My. God. Helium balloon thing funniest evah.

“It was a crime of principle, like when Rosa Parks stole that bus.”

Loved that one and I loved Joy’s aside “He pulled a Ferris Bueller on Me”.

Great first Episode.

CRAP CRAP CRAP

DID IT ALWAYS START AT 8?

I thought it was 9 !

%@#^^#%^@%$%%@@!!!

This was a sneaky surprise that **Elendil’s Heir ** saved {some of} us from.

I love it :smiley: . That was great. I freakin’ love Ethan Suplee.
