What an odd question. |

It's not a weird question. I wouldn't call it girly at all. Although I'm trying to think if, say, my husband would like it. A lot of what I like about it are the little details, the decor, the fashion, the fact that these 40 something women look like 40 something women. I'm constantly trying to put myself in their shoes: would I EVER jump into a deep friendship so quickly? Would I allow myself to to be vulnerable to the emotional and financial benefits of being such close friends with someone? Would I parent like Jen is parenting after my son lost his dad? Interestingly, these are the little details. The bigger story isn't girly at all. |

I just finished it the other day and I can't wait for Season 2 (hope there is one!).
Also, I'm a bit embarrassed to admit this, but this show is what finally taught me what money laundering is. I mean, I knew what it was in theory before, but now I really get it. So thanks Dead to Me. |

Loved her in the whole thing too! But also, she played ”Chutney” (the girl with the perm who accidentally shot her father instead of Brooke Wyndham) in Legally Blonde and was pretty amusing! |

Haha same!!! Even “Office Space” didn’t explain it that well...and they read the definition from a dictionary!!!

That’s the fun of it! So many threads to pull for a Season 2: -how much did Judy know? -what’s with the “my take on Mexican lasagna” neighbor and her gun enthusiasm? -why was the MIL a pill addict? |

I just finished watching the season. I liked it, didn't love it. I wouldn't definitely keep watching because I love the dialogue between Jen and Judy. I'm hoping the gun-loving neighbor gets involved next season with a cover-up for Steve's death. She would be a funny addition to their duo.
On a side note, it's disappointing, but not at all surprising to see so much of this thread devoted to dissecting if the actresses are attractive or have had work done. It's ridiculous and makes you look like assholes. |

| Am I the only one who thinks a second season is unnecessary? I thought the ending brought the story full circle -- after searching tirelessly for the killer, Jen finds herself in the same situation as Judy was. I was satisfied. |

No, I agree! Surprised about talk of a Season 2. I'm satisfied with the ending. |

I "think" Season 2 filming has started! I live in Laguna Beach, and CBS Paramount trucks were parked all over town today. Could be another show, but a girl can hope

It's a tv show, so you only see snippets of a character's life that pertain to the storyline---unless the premise of the show is an ensemble with multiple storylines. As such, you won't see the main character grocery shop, shower, get her teeth cleaned, etc. You just need to assume those things are happening. #TheMoreYouKnow |

Breaking Bad is where I finally figured it out, and how difficult it would actually be unless you were connected with a large crime network to do it for you. I hope they have a second season of Dead to Me, but I also think it could end as it did. Maybe it should, because there is so much potential to descend into new coverup ridiculousness. |

No, it's not girly. My husband and teenage son sat down and watched it with me. |
