[QUOTE="Henry, post: 1704822, member: 158"] ANOTHER vote for Dead Like me. PREMISE: 18-year-old girl, with tons of promise but a college drop-out, is killed because "It's her time to go." She gets inducted into the working afterlife - she and four other people are Grim Reapers, the ones who go around taking souls when it's a person's time to die. She goes from having no purpose in life to having the biggest purpose the universe can give her. :) Starring Ellen Muth, Mandy Patinkin(Alien Nation and a whole heck of a lot of stuff), and Jasmine Guy(Different World and heck of a lot of other stuff). Ellen Muth is an amazing actress, IMO, and plays a dead sarcastic Gen Y'er beautifully. Over the first season, she learns WHY the afterlife works like it does, how hard Reapers have it, and how to deal with her family since she is near them but can never tell them who she is. Funny show, suddenly turning morbid or poignant when you least expect it, and always giving an excellent view into the characters and why they are who they are. My wife and I watched season 1 through Netflix on DVD, and it was so good it ALMOST made us subscribe to Showtime when they announced season Two. In the end we couldn't see paying for a year when all we want is one show, so We'll just sadly wait another year for the next round of DVD's... WARNING: NOT a family show. Strong language throughout, very mature (notice I didn't say "adult") themes. In my opinion, rated "PG-13" to "R" on the MPAA scale. ----------------- Show Two: Coupling Not that American - made crap. The BBC version is short (only 7 or 8 episodes a season) but is funny as heck. In a way I'm glad the American conversion failed, because there's NO WAY they could have converted that show without watering it down for censors. You wouldn't get away with some of the terms used or the partial "exposure", because they wouldn't get past censors on network TV, least not in prime time. WARNING: DEFINITELY not a family show, but it puts "Friends" to shame as an urban comedy about relationships. In my opinion Rated "R" on the MPAA scale. [/QUOTE]
