I was quite disappointed by this show and am wondering if I even saw the same show as all these other people. The show I saw featured poorly written 'trying too hard to be awkwardly realistic' dialog spoken by actors who were trying too hard to be quirky.
Even worse, though, I just found the entire concept of the show to be too dumb to be interesting. Supposedly the lead character is selected to be a grim reaper after her own death, which means she must live on Earth as a walking undead. But for some reason she has to get a job so she can earn money to eat and have a place to live. Um, isn't she dead? Why exactly does she need to eat? Is she going to starve to death ... again?
It just all felt like the producers were trying too hard to create a quirky dark comedy, but I never felt that the actors were able to pull it off. It sort of surprises me how universal the praise is for this show, because the show I saw was at best mediocre. 5/10.
