Totally Frakked: Dead Like Me Returns In Movie Form
Good news for everyone -- I like to call them "people with taste" -- who mourned the far-too-soon cancellation of Dead Like Me. The Showtime series will return in the form of a made-for-DVD movie.
Dead Like Me, much like creator Bryan Fuller's other project, Wonderfalls, fell off the air far too soon. The story revolved around George, a teenage girl who met an ignominious end -- a toilet seat from a space station fell on her head -- and found work in the afterlife as a grim reaper, stealing the souls of those about to die.
A pitch-black comedy with a modern fantasy bent, Dead Like Me never really found a wide audience, but it deserved one. If you're a fan, you're probably already putting the new movie on your wish list, if you haven't seen the show, pick up the DVDs and check it out. You won't be disappointed.
