Bryan Fuller is so talented, and yet is repeatedly screwed (looking at you Gaiman). Everything from Wonderfalls to Hannibal, and all the actors are willing to come back to finish Hannibal, speaks volumes of him making a good set for everyone.

Did anyone else notice the ‘’’clue given in the pool’’’ by one of the little imp~like creatures….. Obviously, there was ‘nothing said for us to hear’, but he did stop his ‘buddy’ from causing her ‘’’early death’’’. As soon as it happened, it was clear to me that the ‘imp’ knew something about her… Enough to stop the other imp from causing her ‘accidental drowning’. I really like the show.

Gravelings

[@craigmurrayauthor]

a great show. When Reuben had to reap his own daughter....tears

[@Danioton]

Rube didn't reap his daughter. A reaper friend of his let him know of her impending death so he could be there. His daughter recognized him in his reaper form implying that sometime in their past she met him as a reaper. In other words just as George was 'haunting' her family, in particular Reggie, Rube must have done something to interact with his daughter before he shut off all contact with them. Whatever happened it was bad enough that he never contacted them again, and it made him very angry about George's attempts to spy on her own family.

[@richard3365]

@@Danioton They didn't beat the audience over the head with it, but it was explained in like the third episode. The more you interact with your past life, the more you lose your memories of that past life. Like when George tries to tell her mother a story so she knows who she is, and then she forgets that specific memory she was trying to tell her mom. Rube even commented on it after that happened, implying that it had happened to him and he had decided long ago that keeping the memories were more important than trying to reconnect.

there are jobs in the afterlife. a reaper once brought a spirit to me. She didn't believe she was dead or couldn't comprehend them. I had to explain it. Later on I left for work and there was a funeral next door. I lived bordering a cemetery.

[@David-q3k9e]

They made a final movie to try to finish the series....

[@AuthorGuy1]

They made the movie to see if there was enough popularity to jump-start the series, which apparently there wasn't, but the movie did provide some closure anyway.

[@pontram]

Wonderful, wonderful silly show. I loved the sarcasm, the ridiculously funny office scenes, weird George and her even weirder sister Reggie. The combination of comedy/melodrama in the afterlife, the work as a reaper, and day job in office is truly unique and funny, but also sometimes sensitive. And, to my astonishment, it has quite a nice German translation.

[@alexandertiktok3059]

That was Reggie (the little sister) feeling like nobody can see her because the parents were concentrating on George and her problems and ignoring Reggie's issues. Or was it George was pretending she didn't exist? I can't remember exactly.

You didn't cover this but it was heavily implied that there was a lot more going on than anyone knew and that Rube was keeping some big secrets

"Dead Like Me" is a fantastic series. Well cast, well written, well developed, and delivered! The associated movies are good as well. The "farewell" movie is a fine ending.

[@devilemperor6668]

This Show is Worth Watching... With Only 2 Seasons & 15 Episodes each , You get attached to the characters...

[@richard3365]

Season 1 only has 14 episodes ... and there's a direct-to-DVD movie, called Dead Like Me: Life After Death, that came out about 4 years later, basically the group is dealing with how to make everything still work after Rube gets his lights (before the movie starts). Personally, I thought it was a pretty good wrap-up of a prematurely cancelled show. It also wraps up how George's family have dealt with, and ultimately moved on from, her death.
