Sorry if this is a re-post, but I checked and googled and didn't find a thread about this.

I was watching Dark Angel on SciFi tonight (7/17), and they showed previews for Dead Like Me, which SciFi is going to be showing Tuesdays according to the ad and the listings at TVGuide.com.

If you don't know what Dead Like Me is, I'd suggest you check out IMDB, and at least watch the pilot episode. Dry gallows humor, clever writing, and interesting characters and stories. Not Firefly (of course, nothing else is!) but better than most, in my opinion.

I've never seen it, but it looks pretty good. I'm gonna give it a try.

People love a happy ending. So every episode, I will explain once again that I don't like people. And then Mal will shoot someone. Someone we like. And their puppy. - Joss

The only problem with this being on SciFi is that if they saw fit to edit out the word crotch from the episode "Ariel" then you know DLM will be full of bleeps. They dropped as many F-bombs on that show as there are c***s***ers in Deadwood.

I own both seasons, but I will be setting my VCR to record...yes I still own a VCR...for the ratings, cause I love Bryan Fuller. He was the executive producer and creator, as well as he worked with Todd Holland on Wonderfalls, who had Jewel Staite on it! Surprisingly, Rebecca Gayheart was on Dead Like Me in the first season but left, and she was the original Inara on Firefly too! Oh and you get a guest appearance of Jewel on the season finale. It's a great show, hope everyone watches it!

I'm watching it right now. I will miss the cursing, but I really forgot how much I loved this show. Glad it's back on TV!

Hooray!

I only own 2 TV series on DVD and they're "Firefly" and "Dead Like Me" (both seasons); I've also given both as gifts to friends and family. I really like the dark humor and the ability to have the episodes be sad and hilarious at the same time.

I've been tempted to pick up a "Der Waffle Haus" t-shirt over at CafePress (I've already gotten a couple of great Firefly-themed ones there); the person selling it is also a Browncoat so there are clearly more than a few of us out there who love both shows.

I hope they get great ratings; maybe we can get another season or two, or a movie follow-up from them, too!

I own both series of Dead Like Me on DVD, awesome show.

They just started showing Wonderfalls in Oz last night & it looks like a show that I can get hooked on. Imagine to my surprise though to find out that Fox cancelled the series after 4 episodes :(

The people at Fox do not seem to understand what good television is.

I've just finished watching seasons 1 and 2 on dvd, liked it, maybe really liked it, but didn't love it. Is there a season 3? MORBID AND CREEPIFYING to think of live person (country club guy) shagging the undead (George/Milly).
