Dead like me on tonight best episode! sky1

one of the best episodes of dead like me is on tonight at 2.40am sky one
it has the excellent A.J. cook in it, should look great in HD

Sunday Mornings

Mason rescues a college student Charlotte (guest star A.J. Cook) from a date rape and she becomes fast friends with George. However, their friendship might be at stake when George realizes that Charotte is enamored with her English Professor, who turns out to be George's father, Clancy. Meanwhile, Roxy takes desperate actions to stop a renegade from acting badly, but that might just turn and hit her in the back

Never watched or even heard of Dead Like Me before, but just watched it after your recommendations. I must say I was pleasantly surprised. Especially liked that actress who used to be in "A Different World" (80s American college comedy sitcom)

One question, if they're dead, how is it they can be seen by others??

Thanks.

They can`t. Only other dead people can see them. I watched all this the first time round and thought it was a breath of fresh air (so to speak). I mean any show that starts off with the lead being knobbled by a toilet works for me.

I'm confused. But they were talking and interacting with living people.

The reapers can be seen by living people, but they do not look the same as they used to (to the living people), only other reapers and the audience can see their old face. In one of the first epesodes Georga looks in a window and can see someone elses face (same clothes etc.) in the reflection. The same girl played Georga when whe went back home and spoke with her mum (mom ), and here mum had no idea who she was and Georga couldn't tell her.

I think it's explained in the first episode a bit like this; When you die a reaper saves your soul and you go tot he other side. When a reaper has saved x number of souls they are released to go to the other side and the last soul they save takes there place until they save x number of souls. and so on, and so on... I think

When Georga dies her reaper had just hit x number of souls so he went off to the other side and left her with his 'job'!

Hope that makes some sense

It would have been better if they showed them in the correct episode order
How hard could it be to have put them in order?
You might just get to see the first episode in a week or two
