How Jason Lee Felt About My Name Is Earl

[@obviousthrowaway5462]

Greg Garcia did a Reddit AMA in which he stated that Earl was never going to finish his list, and that the final episode would revolve around Earl coming across an item he couldn't rectify and while struggling to figure out what to do, someone with a list of their own with Earl on it comes to Earl seeking atonement. Earl asks this person where they got the idea to make a list of all the bad things they've ever done. The person replied that another person had their own list who got the idea from another individual. Thus Earl ends up realizing he sparked a movement of sorts and that he put more good into the world then bad and tears up his list seeing that he is a redeemed man.

[@Wolfsheim23]

[@BrendanMoonHotCheddar]

I had a friend from my primary school that would talk about how much he loved My Name Is Earl every day. We live in Australia and he won a competition to go to an xsports competition in the US somewhere. He told me a story when he got back that he was sitting in the crowd and he saw Jason Lee walk past and he shot to his feet and yelled out "Earl!" and Jason turned around and put on a southern accent and said "How ya doing buddy?". As kids from the other side of the world that was the coolest thing ever and I have never forgotten it, I assume my friend still thinks the same thing. Such a bloody legend.

But have you seen the actor who played Randy recently? That would change the dynamic between Earl and Randy drastically because Randy would be bigger than Earl is now. As much as I would love for this show to come back, I don’t see it happening because of that factor and there are probably other things stopping it from happening too.

[@FuckFeminists]

Thats the only flaw with it - the idea of karma is pure evil. It actually says that 1. the world is just (the sickest idea I can think of), AND 2. that all the victims of society, such as the poor, the marginalised, the otherwise oppressed, and the disabled, suffer the way they do because they were at some point bad people.

Supposedly the ending according to a Reddit AMA made by Greg Garcia was that Earl would never be able to actually finish his list. Earl would come across one item on his list that he couldn't figure out how to rectify. And so he struggles for some time trying to find out what to do, until he meets someone else with their own list of everything bad they had ever done. Earl was on this other person's list and so Earl asks where this individual got the idea to make a list of their own. This person tells Earl they got the idea from someone else having their own list and that individual got the idea from another individual. Earl ends up discovering that people from all over became inspired by him and created their own lists and then tears up his own list walking into the sunset realizing he put more good into the world than bad.

There are some shows where you see the title and the premise, and immediately think "well this show can't last beyond a few seasons without making no sense anymore or outgrowing thier title (2 and a HALF men, then the kid grows up and leaves type of deal). An ex con having a list with a lifetime of crimes and misdeeds on it to make up for? That premise could go on for YEARS! It would stay consistent of a premise with him making a life long amends, while still constantly bieng fresh because his "list" could take him so many different places, directions, story lines and bringing in new characters.

Honestly...My Name is early was not only great, but has a serious amazing and great overall message about being a better person. Something I really cant recall in any other TV shows. For me, My name is Earl is on the level of the Office. I can always watch it, I will always enjoy it, and I always come back and watch it again when theres nothing else for me to see.

My wife hated me after I got her into watching it and I never told her it ended in a cliffhanger. It also left a void in our daily watching habit after it ended since we only watched 2 episodes a day on Netflix at the time. Soon after we tried researching to see if there was any news it would be properly closed. Wishful thinking on our part. The show truly had heart. Loved it

Earl was in a episode of rasing hope I think and I think he was doing a list thingy also. Give that a look 👀.

Jason Lee feels like he’s a substitute filling in for a celebrity, he’s such a chill cool dude. I wish they would’ve continued Earl, or made a movie to wrap it up, but it always seems like my favorite shows get canceled too early, or just run forever until they turn to crap… so maybe it’s good that they never ruined that one.

Jason Lee is so iconic. There is a canon ending though. Earl starts to stress too hard over the list and it starts to make his progress regress until someone walks passed him with their own list. It was then when Earl realized he had done enough good in the world.

I know Jason will never see this, but his work in My Name Is Earl is right up there on the top with Will Smith from Fresh Prince for me. I'm currently re-watching the show for, probably the 10th to 15th time and it is just one of the best comedy shows ever made. I've never been as heartbroken for a show being cancelled as I was, and still am, for My Name Is Earl. I hate when Hollywood relaunches shows and movie franchises, but this I would love to see happen, because the show still has a fan base after all these years.

[@brhettdavis7061]

I remember loving this show as a kid and being devastated that it was cancelled. My dad actually went to school with a girl that worked at NBC and her job was specifically doing the promos for Thursday night shows. They had a little reunion thing and we both decided we were gonna give her a piece of our minds (in a fun loving way) about how they cancelled Earl. She was honestly super sad about it too, but I specifically remember her being like "this new show parks and rec will be great" and looking back after that convo they had Community, The Office, Parks and rec, and 30 Rock all in one night. It still sucks but if Earl was going to be canceled I'm happy it was for quality stuff.
