    While the Earl in a coma era is a solid plot, the sitcoma got old after the first episode, and we could have done with just seeing Earl in the flashbacks to when he was bad, and the unconscious body. Nonetheless, the sitcom clichs were relatively funny, and the twist that one of the clichs of getting hit in the head waking unconscious people up in the real Earl life was quite funny.

    With Earl out of his coma, the show will probably return to normal, but I did like the originality of the season, particularly the prison episodes. This episode was alright, it had some funny moments with the cripples, and Randy looking after Earl, but most of all it has Earl back to his original self or did the coma make him gaymoreless

    • Murderball "Killerball", the game played at the end, is an allusion to the real world game of "Murderball", the premise of which is to carry a ball through a goal to score a point. The game is full contact and allows ramming of one's wheelchair into another, thus the different design of the chair. Electric wheelchairs are not allowed. There was also a documentary about the sport in the film "Murderball". Edit
