Dead Like Me Movie Coming Next Week

Well..next week if you don't understand the internet :P.

Not sure how many people even realized that there was going to be a Dead Like Me movie. In fact I had never heard anything about it until I saw it online the other day. If you don't know what Dead Like Me is, it was a show from Showtime that had maybe a couple seasons. Nobody really ever heard of it, but it has been played on stations most people have like Sci-Fi since and many people found it to be a pretty good show.

"Georgia Lass is aloof and emotionally distant from her family and shied away from her life. After dropping out of college, she takes a job at Happy Time Temporary Services. On her lunch break of her first day, she is hit and killed by a toilet seat from the de-orbiting of the Mir space station. Probably forgetting to get a term life quote before that. She is informed shortly after her death that, rather than moving on to the "great beyond", she will become a grim reaper in the "external influence" division[5], responsible for reaping souls of people who die in accidents (many of which are of Rube Goldberg-style and complexity[6][7]), suicides and homicides."

Anyways, if you liked this show, which there were a lot of us that did, you should check the movie out. I thought it was pretty good. 7/10 probably. Only thing most people will complain about is that Rube isn't in the movie. It isn't a big deal though if you are bright enough to understand what the movie was trying to do with the reapers. The lesson they are supposed to learn, or the test theya re given.
