yeah, it's a pretty funny show, I've caught most of the episodes and they're repeating the first series of episodes again, so people can catch up on them,,,plus Jamie Lee Pressly ain't too hard on the eyes. and also the hotel maid.

Quality show! Caught the most of them in the states and downloaded them once I got home. Very funny. And yes, the ladies are very hot!

Jaime Pressley
Nadine Velazquez

**Drumcondra Red** · 06/01/2006, 9:36 PM

Just saw it for the first time, very funny!!!

**dcfcsteve** · 07/01/2006, 12:11 AM

Watched it myself. Like the idea and the way it's produced, and will definitely catch it again.

Scarily - I find myself getting more and more into the whole Karma lark as I get older. To the point that when I got home from the Israel trip in April and found my front door had been kicked-in (by the Police, as it later turned-out - but that's a whole different story...), the first thing I did was ask myself what I'd done wrong during my trip !!

(Takes deep breath) - repeat after me "You are not Earl, you are NOT Earl....! "

NBC has shifted Earl and The Office to Thursday nights so Thursday nights are great again. The highlight of Earl is seeing Jaime Pressley play the perfect White-Trash girl, she is quite a looker. Plus Darnell is also a riot.

Some funny quotes:
Darnell: [spending Christmas in a nativity scene so Joy's parents don't find out that she and Earl are divorced] It's cold out there in that manger - I don't know how Jesus did it.
...
Joy: Is his sister gettin' married? 'Cause if she is and she didn't ask me to be a bridesmaid, I'm goin' down to the strip club and slap her off that pole!
...
Catalina: What is a county fair?
Randy: It's like Disneyland for poor people.

on last Thursdays' episode, the hispanic/ maid character get's into a tiff with the Jaimie Pressley character and curses her out in Spanish, the Jamie Pressley replies " sorry, I don't speak maid", made me laugh

Maybe another 260 things will be added to his list

**SaucyJack** · 02/03/2006, 12:57 PM

and to "Arrested Development" fans, the show is being picked up by Showtime on cable, from what I've heard.

I have watched most of the episodes so far and I must say that I'm not overly impressed. A lot of the jokes seem to be robbed from older shows. (eg The replacing birth-control pills with tic-tacs was used by the Simpsons about 10 years ago).

it isn't bad, but not in the same class as other US comedies in recent years in my opinion (eg Curb Your Enthusiasm, Scrubs, Futurama, Family Guy etc)
