Dead Like Me
 
I adored this show. Never saw it on the tele, however, it was on Showtime and the SciFi channel from what I understand. I mean, the characters where great, the actors were funny, the tone and voice was just comical and cynical. Honestly, I don't have a favorite character because I just...I like them all. The movie wasn't awesome and I was disapointed it only ran two seasons, but overall, just great.

But it seemed like no one saw it. :(

Eh. I bought the first season (or was it the whole series? I don't remember) because a) I was a big fan of Bryan Fuller's Wonderfalls and Pushing Daisies and b) because I was out of good TV shows to watch at the time. Watched a few episodes, and was vaguely intrigued, but it really just felt like a warmup for those other shows. The episodes felt long-ish (which makes sense, since they were on Showtime), and kind of meandering, and I didn't love the characters right off the bat.

I'm sure I would've liked it more, so I'll probably pick it up again at some point, but, yeah...I like that it exists because it clearly made those other two shows much better, but it didn't grab me nearly as much.

This show was great. I love Mandy pantikin and own the 2 seasons and movie. I feel the movie didnt do it justice though, mainly coz they killed off Mandys character. The humour is dark and sarkastic and im sad it only lasted 2 seasons :( The cast was incredible and the storylines were so interesting :)

Ugh, I tried with this show but couldn't get into it, even though it has Mandy Patinkin, who I love in everything.
