Thread: Dead Like Me

Tweet

My ten-year-old daughter is after me to purchase a DVD set of Season One of a TV series called "Dead Like Me". Apparently it's about a teenage girl who is killed but, instead of going to Heaven, she is assigned to be a Grim Reaper, claiming souls an instant before their bodies die. Or something like that.

Anybody familiar with this? It sounds like something a Hallowe'en Fan would be into.

I was an interesting show, but not really horror or anything Halloweenish.
They did two seasons and then a movie.
My wife was more into it than I was.

I enjoyed the few episodes I saw , I'd say get it if you got a deal on the set.

I enjoyed this show when it was on, but Mandy Patinkin was in it and I like anything he is in....
Its not scary or anything like that, really its more about the trials and tribulations of being a young woman only she's a reaper, if I remember correctly.

I enjoyed the series! Sometimes you can watch reruns on Scifi...or now SyFy.
The show was different! If you like Pushing Daisies for its quirkiness then you'll probably like this show. I believe they have 2 dvd versions a pg13 and R version.

Yes, I loved that series myself. Have the dvd's too.

I just recently discovered this show and loved it. I purchased the entire series (sadly only 2 seasons and a movie) for $20 at Best Buy about 2 months ago.

I agree...anything with Mandy Patinkin is worth the money.

very addicting show, theres 2 seasons worth of shows :3 I loved the humor in it and some parts were kinda squeemish. One episode had me in tears, because shes a reaper she cant have a choice in reaping souls, no matter who the person is, she has to do it and this conflicts with her alot. Lots of good actors in it from our favorite tv shows and some were in awesome movies. Look on the wiki for the actors,

Buy her Buffy the Vampire Slayer instead if you want something more halloween-ish.

It was good.
