Love this show! Characters are insanely funny and premis of Karma is great for bringing a positive tone to a comdey that at times could be considered vulgar. I let my near 11 yr old watch it with me. I am a little less conservative than most parents, but I am ready to explain when things such as gay bars, hookers, and such comes up...although most of the time , he doesn't even ask cuz he doesn't get it. I.E. Hookers he thinks in the first episode- Earl tries to pay a girl to kiss and date the gay guy (because he doesn't understand 'sex' fully). If you are uncomforatble as parent explaining such things then wait till at least closer to 12.

This is one of my favorite TV shows
If I had kids, I wouldn't let them watch it since it has many sexual innuendos and sexual situations and one of the main characters sometimes works as a stripper. The first season started off fairly mild, but the second season is a bit much. Several episodes surround Earl as a prison inmate and the show seems to poke fun of jail life. Adults will love this show, but kids shouldn't be watching this.

A show I don't miss!
I find the characters likeable & the writing top notch. (A well deserved writing Emmy!) I'm looking forward to seeing what they'll do in the second season.

Great premise, very funny
I'm not really into network TV, but this show caught my attention when I happened across the pilot. It's funny, and not PC. I love the message of repentance and forgiveness - and am pleasantly surprised to see it be the basic message for a TV show.

refreshingly silly
What a great concept! I former jerk atoning for his bad behaviour. We thoroughly enjoy the silliness of Earl, Randy & gang. I just love that there is no laugh track to insult my intelligence.

Hilarious, For Teens and Adults
I wouldn't recommend this for under 14. But it's a very funny show about making things right with people you have wronged. There are stereotypes: rednecks, mobile homes, beer drinking. But in the end, the show always has a happy ending.

Good Goal, Bad Surroundings
Poor Earl just wants to make the world a better place. Little by little he works to fix his past mistakes and help others have a better life. While his intentions are good his actions, and those of people around him, are not always the best. Each episode has a clear message but there is enough violence (thanks to his ex-wife) and questionable content to make a parent pause before allowing anyone under 14 to watch.

I like it so far
I think this show is funny and has a good message. Earl used to only care about himself and then learns about karma and decides to turn his life around. It reminds me of a 12 step program in that he makes a list of all the bad things he has done and vows to correct them, whether it be apologizing to the people he has wronged or quitting such behavior as smoking. When he does good things, good things come his way. We could all learn a little lesson about this!

THE redneck comedy!
This is an amazing show for a redneck comedy! I have followed this show for some time now and it is still fresh and fun to this day! It is all about a man named Earl and his younger, innocently funny brother Randy who tackle a list full of past events that hurt other people. This list is led by Karma.The show though does feature some vulgar humor, some occasional language, and characters such as a prostitute, gay character, and Joy, Earl's ex wife who is sassy, rude, and funny! The show is a teen must and is guaranteed to delight your redneck comedy urges!

I heard from a lot of people that it was a very funny show, so i tried watching it and it became one of my most favorite tv shows ever. Has some sexual humor in the show and some language, nothing much to worry about. Very good show.

Must see......
This is my favorite show ever! Joy and Catalena's relationship is so hilarious! I like the newest episode with the carnival. This show is a must see for anyone who likes slapstick comedy. p.s. the 6th or 7th grade version of Earl is cute!
