Mine too. It just pixelated , and then I totally lost signal. No storms or anything. I don't know what was going on.

I just knew I'd come one here and everybody would be "best episode yet!"

I believe it is mentioned earlier that they will be running all three again on Saturday night.

It took me three episodes, but I finally figured out what I don't like about this show...

it's too damn short.

This show should be a hour long. And, add me to the list of those that aren't tired of Jamie's scheming. I gotta say...I voted against her in the girl 'o the week thread over in Adult Talk, but she's looking kinda cute.

Nowhere near as cute as Nadine, though..

I love everything about this show from Crabman to Joy scheming.

I was watching in HD, but completely missed the sign in the background. Too busy paying attention to Earl.

She's my favorite part of the show, and not just because she looks great in HD.

I'd like to see the show get hourlong treatment a few times because I really think it could handle it. In fact, I think they really could have greenlit it as a "drama" (as in an hourlong show, not as in an actual drama) with minimal tweaking like expanding the cast by one or two people for more side stories.

I liked the exchange about the clock:
Randy: "That thing almost put my eye out"
Earl: "Well you shouldn't have been so close. You knew what time it was."

Weird. I had the same exact problem. Didn't really have any bad weather, but this didn't record and Supernatural cut out during the second half too. Ah well, picked em both back up on reruns this weekend, thank goodness.

Funny stuff. Still looking forward to this every week. I think everyone else has already mentioned the funny stuff.

Finally, an episode that I really enjoyed. I was not impressed with the previous episodes, but this one was terrific. I'll keep watching with episodes like this coming.

I am going against the grain here and say that I enjoyed this episode the least. I found the whole plot about getting the car back so contrived. Couldn't he have just said "I need to retrieve my checkbook from the car?"

There were some funny spots (I laughed at the copy center guy not realizing his co-worker was gay), but I liked the first two episodes more.

Welp I found my replacement for Scrubs till it's back on the air. NBC finally did something right and re-aired the first three episodes. I just finished all three and have to say it was hilarious. The karma theme is awesome! to Earl

I thought the same thing, but then I saw the sign on the wall, that stated no checks, and that brings up Earl's comment about these are they type to steal your change in your ashtray.

yet the rest of the plotlines scream reality. Pretty small nitpick.
