I love how Raising Hope has the actors from My Name is Earl (using Earl for short) on the show and they make references to "Earl" every so often.

The creator of Raising Hope also did Earl.

Last night's 1st episode had the entire cast from Earl on and it was awesome.

I really liked Earl and was pissed when it was cancelled.

It took me awhile to figure out what was going on. Once I saw Nadine Velazquez I realized they were doing a reunion.

I loved the first few seasons of Earl (I like Jason Lee a lot). Stopped following it after that; is it still worth watching after the third season?

I think the entire series was good, but - spoiler alert -
there is no series finale. It ends on a cliffhanger and just never had a next season.

Hmm, annoying, but I can deal with that. Thanks for the info.

Season 4(?) (prison) was a step down, but later on in it we do finally get to see what happens with the one-legged girl.

I still need to watch the last season.

Once I saw Randy and Joy, then Darnell, I was like "all we need is Catalina", and then she shows up I was all like "YES!!"
Loved all the references to Earl too.


I can't find a video of the original clip but the episode where the legless guy chases Earl always cracks me up:

Earl was great for quite a while, but near the end it got pretty stupid and definitely deserved to be canned. I remember one episode with Danny Glover I caught that REALLY sucked and I never really wanted to catch up on it after that.

yeah Earl was awesome. It had a few shark jumping moments in the last season but it was still good to the end.

Hope is another great one. Im only on season 2 because of netflix but cant wait till they add more.
