Has anyone else seen this show? It's awesome.

It's about a girl who gets struck by a toilet seat from the falling space station Mir. She dies and becomes a grim reaper where she has to go and collect the souls of people who die.

It's quite good. The acting is pretty top notch, and the stories aren't boring. Plus, the main character, George (short for Georgia), says a lot of profound things concerning life, the afterlife, and her undead life.

it`s just showing in croatia now :D

it has this intriguing combo of dark humour and profound life philosophy, and for some strange reason the group of reapers functions lovingly....dodgy punky brit, 40`s hollywood blonde, cyincal dancer who invented leggings, and George- lost as only a teen in "Western modern" world can be lost :love:

Love it! Was in Holland for awhile on the obscure sunday late evening. Very typical, but me and my sister were watching it every week. Only thing that annoyed me was George's sister. Oh, and her boss... But has some great dark humor, some great philosophical stuff and is nice and very entertaining to watch.

I don't watch it regularily, but I always watch it when I catch it. Love it - definitely has that dark humour that I enjoy.
