My Name Is
Earl Season Two
Just
because you turn
over a new leaf and
want to start righting all
the wrongs youve done,
it doesnt mean life will
be plain sailing...
WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND. And Earl J Hickey (Jason Lee) suddenly believes
in Karma. With his change of heart, he decides to make a list of every-thing
he's done wrong and to track down his victims to try to make amends
and make himself into a better person. My Name Is Earl returned to the
small screen
on Monday 28 January (2008) when the second season of the award-winning television
series was released on DVD by Twen-tieth Century Fox Home Entertainment.
Having had a small lottery win in Season One, newly-reformed trailer park reprobate
Earl had something of an epiphany that has caused him to change his life's journey.
This funny and heart-warming series follows Earl's encounters as he faces the
very solid ghosts of his past misdeeds, joined by his somewhat dim-witted brother
Randy (Ethan Suplee), the sexy Catalina (Nadine Velazquez) a jumping
stripper at a nightclub and cleaner at the motel where Earl and Randy live
Darnell (Eddie Steeples), owner of The Crab Shack bar and Earl's gum-chewing
ex-wife Joy (Jaime Pressly), nail technician extraordinaire and bone-idle, self-serving
trailer-trash queen.
Not
the brightest star in the sky, perhaps, but despite his shortcomings Earl is
chalking up his successes. But what can you do to make up for seducing your
best friend's mother marry her? Or for making fun of a hirsute schoolgirl?
And how the devil do you atone for making someone believe they've heard the
voice of God particularly when by coming clean you drag them straight
back to square one? Or for stealing someone's identity or being responsible
for an overweight cat?
In addition to the regular cast, My Name Is Earl Season Two also
features a diverse range of guest appearances, including Christian Slater, who
plays a stoner-turned-environmentalist whom Earl and Randy robbed years ago,
and Roseanne Barr, who plays Millie, the woman Earl once tricked into thinking
he was the voice of God.
Other guest stars include: Jenny McCarthy, who plays a hot gym instructor, Amy
Sedaris, an obsessive cat lover, John Waters, an eccentric funeral director,
Judy Greer, a bearded lady, and John Leguizamo as Diego the hostage-taker.
Along the way, Earl is kidnapped by gunmen and is refused his applic-ation for
a credit card. And he also becomes embroiled in Joy's ongoing court case for
grand theft auto and kidnapping. Don't ask!
One-liners
abound, including Earl: "Women like Randy except when he stops pretending
to be someone he isn't"; Joy to Catalina, who has kicked her: "Do that again
and I'll make those booby implants fly around the room like a loose balloon";
Judy to her overweight cat: "Mummy won't be too critical because critical mummies
make for bulimic teenagers who become needy adults and drink a lot of red wine";
An angry Catalina to Joy: "…your eyeballs are too big you look like Finding
Nemo!" And, when Earl begs Catalina to go back to her job as a jumping stripper
so that Chubby (guest star Burt Reynolds) will put up the bail money for Joy:
"I will jump for you [Earl], but I will never jump for Joy."
My Name Is Earl was created by Greg Garcia, written by Michael Pennie
and Directed by Mark Buckland. Producers include Jason Lee
and Danielle Sanchez-Witzel. Produced by Henry Lange Jr.
