An interesting factoid we learn about Randy in this episode of My Name Is Earl is that whenever he finds a hat, which happens from time to time, he invariably gets lice and a brand-new personality to go along with it. Hence the amount of time he spends during this installment speaking what he thinks is British English, complete with cultural references and unique vocabulary.
While Randy’s busy with that act, Joy, and eventually Darnell, devotes her efforts to capturing Pigsquatch, a supposedly mythical, giant prehistoric pig that she sees in the flesh one day. …read more

This episode of My Name Is Earl threw me off at the end, in a very. very good way. Read on to find out why.
One day while Earl is driving Catalina to work, he spies a hot tub along the side of the road that reminds him he owes Joy one. Back in the day, when they were married, she landed a gig as a spokesmodel for a hot tub company but never made it in.
While she was spraying a can of aerosol hairspray on her hair (and most of the rest of …read more

Watching the one-hour My Name Is Earl season finale made me realize something — the show is very rarely funny anymore. When I do laugh, it’s usually at the ridiculous sight gag-type situations, such as Randy falling over after a driver throws a bagful of garbage at him when he’s doing what Billie wants him to in order to “earn” a Klondike bar. (Get it? The ice cream’s advertising tag line is “What would you do for a Klondike bar?” So, Randy would do just about anything, including humiliate himself, for …read more

How ironic is it that when Earl gets ecstatic over his alleged soul mate Billie’s decision to start her own Karma list, everyone nearby reacts negatively? Very, and the contradiction — or at least the gunshot — should have warned Earl of the difficulties to come with regards to his new wife.
Once the glow of being newlyweds diminishes, Earl is left with the shocking realization that he and Billie have different opinions on just about everything, from which Van Halen is better (the one with Sammy Hagar or David Lee Roth) to whether …read more

The hospital decides to kick out still comatose EARL, and RANDY is offered a choice: put Earl in a state-run home or accept $2000 in Camden cash, redeemable at over six local locations. After he sees the Camden cash can be used for paintball, Randy chooses the second option, of course.
As he reveals to doubtful JOY and DARNELL later, however, his main concern looking after Earl is to get his older brother better so he can start taking care of things on his Karma list himself. In fact, that’s what Randy becomes preoccupied …read more

Still in a Coma
Following EARL and BILLIE’s double car accident, Earl remains in a coma in the hospital. RANDY has already learned that his brother’s health will improve if he crosses things off on his Karma list for him, so Randy arrives at the hospital to determine which item he should tackle next. Since all Earl does is drool these days, the only way for him to choose the next item is by drooling on the list. His spit lands on “Stole a motorcycle,” to Randy’s great dismay.
Earl and Randy Take a …read more

NBC’s Karma sitcom My Name Is Earl returned last week with a tragic double episode focused on the aftermath of Earl’s recent coma-inducing car accident.
Emmy-winning actress Jaime Pressly plays Earl’s razor-sharp but loyal ex-wife Joy, of course, and she appeared on the Ellen DeGeneres Show last week to promote the sitcom’s post-writers strike premiere.
Just follow the jump to see how Pressly’s been doing these days. We already know her acting didn’t suffer during the prolonged, forced hiatus. In fact, you can catch her — or least her voice — as the character Mrs. Quilligan in the current animated …read more
