Wow. That's the longest episode description I've ever read.
Am I alone in not getting how Catalina being deported is Earl's fault? Sure, he could have paid more attention to her and less to the mountains of money he was winning, but she's aware of her own situation - if she was gonna be late for work, it was her own fault. Not to mention, speeding while being an undocumented alien; not smart. She got deported because of her own errors of judgment, not Earl's.

I'm glad this is going to air tonight. I thought after last week that Catalina's fate was going to be the mid-season cliff-hanger (for some reason I thought it was a Christmas episode, likely to be the last until January but I guess I imagined that).

DOes that mean theres no office?
I wish Catalina would stay gone. She was alright in S1, now shes just stupid and annoying. Why cant she talk either? She has a lisp now and slurs her speech. Did she have a stroke?

Sounds like a winner, although Randy's love will probably still be unrequited. 
And I can't see Joy's pleasantness lasting long, even with meds.
RICOLA!

TIVO WARNING.....my Tivo had 2 "Earls" scheduled for tonight - 1 from 7-8, the other from 7:30-8. So Smallville wasn't going to be recorded. I think initially they had this scheduled as 2 1/2 hour eps.

Jaime Pressly being good in a role is still hard to buy.
That said, Joy on happy pills = greatness.

This episode (these episodes?) was (were?) great.
I loved the village version of Earl and Randy...kidnapping the friend's mother to force her to smoke until she died.
Joy going off on the people while hopped up on nice pills was also outstanding.

I also loved the guy playing "Time After Time" in Spanish after Randy got his heart broken.

a couple of (geeky) nitpicks: a) since when does it take just a couple of hours to get a passport?
b) I didn't know everyone in Mexico speaks english.

Great, great episode. Quite a few laugh-out-loud moments from me tonight including Darnell's turtle on Joy's pills,"Bugle Boy Jeans" and Randy wanting to throw the dead son back up.
Season 2 DVD is a lock for me to own just for this episode alone.
