Editor's Note

This made-for-Showtime series introduces a misanthropic female college dropout, Georgia "George" Lass (Ellen Muth), whose already mundane life becomes even more annoying when she dies. Instead of putting her out of her misery, Rube (Mandy Patinkin) forces George to perform the duties of a grim reaper while maintaining an otherwise ordinary existence. Unfortunately, this means working at the same temp agency that employed her before her accident. Created by Bryan Miller, DEAD LIKE ME features standout supporting turns from Patinkon, Callum Blue, Jasmine Guy, and Rebecca Gayheart. Includes all fourteen episodes from the show's groundbreaking first season.
