treble 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2007 I'd fast forward 2 years. Use flashbacks showing him getting advice from other inmates and using that advice while trying to scratch stuff off the list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dandy 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2007 I would have him be in jail for at least the first few episodes of the season. Being Ralph's cellmate will definitely get Earl in some bad situations. Randy can not function without Earl, as was shown after the sentencing, so he has a story as well. Joy and Darnell will have their own thing to do, and the deaf lawyer will be trying to get Earl out of jail. I'm sure that can take up 6 episodes or so.

BlackFlagg 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2007 I'm guessing they'll gather up the people he helped on his list and have some Free Earl rally. Hope they don't do it to soon though as this has some could make for some good TV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2007 I'd fast forward 2 years. Use flashbacks showing him getting advice from other inmates and using that advice while trying to scratch stuff off the list. He doesnt have the list anymore, which essentially jumps the shark on the series if they try and do the show without him having a list, even if he makes up another one or something.. Season 3 is a "2 years later..." deal with flashbacks throughout the season to his time in Jail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MDH257 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2007 At a meeting with TV Critics, the producers revealed that Earl will stay in prison for at least a few episodes. Live from the TV Critic's Press Tour Earl will keep its title character in prison for a while. He's been there before, and some people still there remain on his karmic list.
