COST DAD THE ELECTION
9pm 2005-11-22 ALL NEW!
MAYOR HICKEY - BEAU BRIDGES GUEST STARS AS EARL’S FATHER - Earl (Jason Lee) sets out to mend his relationship with his father Carl (guest star Beau Bridges) by trying to cross number four off of his list: "blew dad’s chance to be elected mayor." Four years prior, Carl ran for mayor to oppose the other candidate’s plan to redirect airplane traffic away from the affluent part of town and towards Carl’s neighborhood. His campaign was going very well, until a misunderstanding between Earl and a police officer was caught on tape and broadcast as the opposing candidate’s campaign commercial. Now Earl submits his father’s name to run again, even though Carl is adamant that he does not want to be mayor. Earl, Randy (Ethan Suplee), and Catalina (Nadine Velazquez) recruit unregistered voters to boost Carl’s numbers, hoping to win not only the election for Carl, but also a relationship with his father for Earl. Jaime Pressly and Eddie Steeples also star. TV-14

1. Is this show any good?

It looked kinda lame to me
But I dunno...

2. Yes VERY funny IMHO

I say that meaing that for what its 8th episode it really is a great concept (nedless really) and has some great little off topic moments.

It is making fun of rednecks but without being demeaning or without celebrating redneckness.

3. Hilarious.

Only Earl can make things right by locating the extended mix of 'Cherry Pie' for his ex.

It's actually quite good natured and sweet at times.

Plus I love Jaime Presley, she ALWAYS plays a hot trailer park queen.
