Secret Messages in My Name Is Earl
May 10th, 2007
 OK, not quite secret messages, but hidden enough if you don’t speak Spanish.
In tonight’s episode, as in the first season’s finale, Catalina spoke directly to the viewer. She delivers the lines as if angry, but they’re really messages of thanks to the audience. If my high school Spanish is trustworthy, tonight she said something like, “Thanks for watching our program. We’ll miss you this summer,” before telling Earl she thought it was funny he thought she would want to help Joy. I’m less sure what Marlee Matlin’s message was when she entered the court room, but I think it was, “Don’t look at me like that, you son of a bitch!” Tonight’s was a funny, funny episode. The scenes involving Marlee Matlin were brilliant. |

Apparently, if you speak Hebrew, you could follow Borat’s “Kazakhistani” gibberish in BORAT. It was actually mumbly Hebrew with a bizarre Eastern European accent.
