That's right, Swedes, tonight is the night! 20.00 at SVT1, the pilot episode of Dead Like Me will be aired.

And in honour of this, I've made a Doyle and Mason comparison list. I made an insanely long GIF animation yesterday, but didn't finish it, and it's at my school, so this'll have to do for now.
