Doing the right thing isn't always easy. Just ask Earl Hickey, a recovering ne'er-do-well with a lifetime's worth of dirty deeds to make up for. In order to turn his life around Earl needs to accrue a whole heap of good karma, an ambition not helped by his sociopathic ex-wife and intellectually challenged best buddy. My Name Is Earl continues it's very funny, slightly surreal, irreverent but good natured take on trailer trash America and one man's haphazard quest for redemption.
