Talk:Dead Like Me/Archive 2

message: On the IE/UK Season 1 box, for the episode "Rest in Peace" it says its George's 1st anniversary. Is this correct? Cause if it is, wouldn't they have passed Halloween by in the 1st Season, meaning that even if they don't show it, George should already have known about the face thing. Is this a box error, or a plot error? - RedHotHeat 19:02, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

message: Do we have a source for the following statement?
:This is generally considered as a deliberate joke by the writers, since the original script had the names "Das Waffle Haus".
The phrase "generally considered" makes this sound like a fan speculation, not a documented fact. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 15:30, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

message: The article features the word "recently" numerous times, but considering the series has been cancelled a while ago, it doesn't seem like the right word anymore. I think better would be "later in the series" or something similar. Retodon8 12:58, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

70.110.142.239, a similar (or the same) link was added a while back, and IIRC, the consensus was to keep it off the encyclopedia page (article).
There is also a petition going on at http://www.petitiononline.com/dlm1218 to continue the show

replies: text: The petition is futile. Despite being an amazing show, I don't think the show will ever come back in the same form.  If the reruns build up a larger fan base, a similar show may come back like Star Trek did.  Just look at all the variation of CSI shows, the Charlie's Angel come backs, the same theme can be done with a different team of grim reapers with a different story line.  I guess one big factor is that the original DLM was on ShowTime which is a premium channel and the fan base was limited.  Now it is rerun on SciFi channel which is also cable TV not available to all audience.  If this show starts to be rerun on the syndicate including those broadcast-over-the-air local channels, then there would be a slight chance the fan base would build up to a critical mass.

message: It says on the main page that Roxy is probably a Southerner because of her passion for Peanut Poppies. Wasn't she given thePeanut Poppies by the guy she had a Post-It for a year later and then stopped his death by breaking in to his house and cutting the power?Pinkfloydfan 03:27, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: And if you listen to the VO it is stated that Peanut Poppies were especially popular in certain southern states. Icundell 11:52, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That may be true, but the voice over says that the guy Roxy was ticketing got them from his mother in south on birthdays and holidays. Pinkfloydfan 15:28, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: But the implication is about where she got the taste for them. Icundell 17:45, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The implication to me was actually that she got her fondness for them from when he gave her some. 08:21, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

message: From the current edit:
"Reapers have no special powers except fast healing, yet at one point reapers sit on a virtually unclimbable tower in the middle of the city without being noticed in broad daylight."
In the pilot, Ruben explains to George that he (and other reapers) can choose to be corporeal or not corporeal. The part about being on top of a building isn't explained, but the rest is :) -Kf4hzu 05:32, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Kf4zhu, Reapers can interact with the living (IE: Talk) but they are not supposed to (Interferance). The only ability they have is healing. They cant change there state etc. Matthew Fenton (contribs) 07:55, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

message: Dead Like Me premiered on Sci-Fi Channel on July 18th, 2006 with the pilot episode.  However the episode is now two hours long and includes many of the deleted scenes featured on the DVD release.  Some of the new scenes are George getting her new identity papers at the DMV (BTW...  There is no DMV in Seattle.  Here it's the Department of Licensing or DOL.), George seeing the Plague Boys in the park, George seeing other reapers during a bus ride and numerous other smaller scenes.

:Thanks for the tip, I'll set my DVR on Sci-Fi channel. I've already seen the first season on Showtime in HDTV, watching it again on SciFi in standard TV would really "blur" my memory.  :-)  I look forward to the second season that I missed.  Kowloonese 00:17, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
