Dead Like Me is about grim reapers and life after life. George is the lead, she is a lazy 18 year old who dies in the first episode. She becomes undead, has to take souls and escort them to their afterlife.
Sound gory? It's not. This show is funny. And I really liked it! I only planned to watch the first episode, but I just couldn't get enough. The deaths remind me of the Final Destination movies, creative and kinda funny.
The show got me thinking...is this really what happens after people die? The person who created this has such a great imagination! I love this show and can't wait to watch the second season!
Jenn's book recommendation was Louise Keen. The cover of the book totally screamed "READ ME!" What girl doesn't have a hard time getting her jeans on!?
I'm sure a lot of people see themselves in the main character, Sunny. After loosing 98 pounds she still sees herself as a fat girl...but tries her hardest to be the skinny girl that everyone wants. She sees a therapist to understand her issues with food, love, and her body. In the end she comes to find that she is tired of being hungry...in more than one way.
I have really mixed feelings about this book. I liked it, but it is clearly written with British humor...which I never find funny! I have a hard time watching Robin Hood Men in Tights...I just don't get the humor! So, if that type of humor and writing isn't your thing...you might not like this book.
I think me and Jenn would get along perfectly. Why? Her food recommendation was pizza and beer. I could have gotten creative and made my own pizza. But I took the night off from cooking and took advantage of a free large pizza from Dominos. And topped it off with some delicious pumpkin ale. Perfection!
Jenn, thank you for introducing me to my new favorite TV show...I seriously can not get enough! And thanks for giving me the night off from cooking! Let's get together and eat a pizza together!
