    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Inspired by the Piers Anthony novel "On A Pale Horse", but working on the notion that there are multiple Grim Reapers working the planet.
    • Quotes

      George: Life sucks, and then you die. And then it still sucks.

    • Crazy credits
      Episodes in which clips from previous episodes are used, in particular, the flashback episode, Nighthawks (2003), give screen credit to the writers of any excerpts that are used, even if the clip is momentary.
    • Alternate versions
      In the German version Delores' surname is "Diemit" instead of "Herbig". She introduces herself as "Delores Diemit, die mit den grossen braunen Augen" for the translated pun "Delores Herbig as in her big brown eyes".

    original
    This program is only like 6 Feet Under in that it deals with death. The rest is totally different. The characters are believable, sad, and sometimes stereotypes, but what show doesn't use stereotypes?? The cast is great, I wish they would use the Roxy character in their story lines more. Actually, this program deals more with life and how to live while you're alive than with death. The deaths are always wildly improbable, but then again, if you watch the news people die in weird ways every day. The music is appropriately atmospheric and thoughtful. The story lines are always a mix of sad, inspiring, and philosophical. These characters learn something and grow with each episode. An excellent show all around.
