The characters are wacky and the stories are ridiculous but unlike some other 1-cam sitcoms everything in Earl seems to fit and the characters are likeable.  Far fetched as it is I know I've met some of these characters in real life and I haven't hated them--or at least I was justified in hating them.  And I like how they make a distinction between book smarts--which Earl lacks--and cleverness--which Earl has in spades.  That's something few television programs seem to grasp.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ryuukuro]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 5th 2005 12:46AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2005/10/04/my-name-is-earl-in-hd-rocks/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2005/10/04/my-name-is-earl-in-hd-rocks/</guid><description><![CDATA[Pretty cool.<br><br>But no, that guy is not from the Staples commercials, he's from the OfficeMax commercials.

The one with "High Def Rocks" is on at 9:30 Eastern. <br><br>I'll have to check it out as I've been hearing good things about this new series. Happy to see the sly promotion of High Def in the "Easter Egg." Cool!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Lanny]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 8th 2005 10:50PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2005/10/04/my-name-is-earl-in-hd-rocks/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2005/10/04/my-name-is-earl-in-hd-rocks/</guid><description><![CDATA[The show is amazing... the characters are right out of Raising Arizona meets Dogma (isn't that another Jason Lee flick?).<br><br>And everyone seems a bit familiar... which means I definitely need to look into getting an advanced degree, even if it's at some inoquous internet night school.<br><br>As for the HD issues: give it until just after Q1 of this next year, and I believe there will be a lot of happy campers in the HD world. It's coming fast now.<br><br>Side note: I had the opportunity to work with a Sony developer on a Scan Doubler, mimicing HDTV back in, yes, 1988-89. It was awesome, but buggy, and cost $25,000 just for the interface box between the TV (or projector) and the source material (usually a Laser Disk... remember those).<br><br>So what we have going on now is absolutely phenomenal in comparison, and price issues are moving downward at a rapid clip.<br><br>Enjoy!<br>ME]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mark Alan Effinger]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 16th 2005 9:33PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2005/10/04/my-name-is-earl-in-hd-rocks/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2005/10/04/my-name-is-earl-in-hd-rocks/</guid><description><![CDATA[I love the guy who plays his brother.

That is your friends setup. He needs to have his set adjusted. He should not be seeing any motion blur. I have an older Panasonic 53" HD set and the DTV HD tivo and everything looks supurb.

HDTV signal is crystal clear, don't be fooled by a bad TV. Quality HDTVs that don't show pixelation during motion are still quite expensive 4K+, today's HTDVs are rated as such just because they can process the signal. If you're sceptical, go down to a high end electronics store, ask to see their top of the line TVs, then go back to Best Buy and try not to throw up at what they have for sale.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Doom]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 11th 2006 3:28PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2005/10/04/my-name-is-earl-in-hd-rocks/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2005/10/04/my-name-is-earl-in-hd-rocks/</guid><description><![CDATA[I really wish that the Philippines have HD.<br>it will be better if he have those kind of programming...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[evileyeTHEBLOCKER]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 17th 2006 5:04AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2005/10/04/my-name-is-earl-in-hd-rocks/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2005/10/04/my-name-is-earl-in-hd-rocks/</guid><description><![CDATA[Old Man,<br>  Those artifacts you are seeing is your friends TV set, not HD.

They compress the crap<br>out of HD to get more channels through the bird. You local<br>cable outfit will do the same thing. It's breaks<br>our hearts to know what the pictures really look like when<br>they leave the transmission site versus what the home viewer<br>ends up seeing.
