I just hope they end the series with being the last season on the last episode they sait it to be contuined. I was thinking of buying the seasons but seeing they didn't end it unless like i said then i wouldn't mind buying them. But i've watched several episodes and really enjoyed it myself.
No, they ended the series with a cliffhanger, of Earl turing out to be the actual father of Joy's (played in a wonderfully by the white hott Jamie Pressly) first born son Dodge, and "Crabman" probably not being the real father of Earl Jr. The reason it had the "to be conutine" tag at the end is because the producers of the show was banking on the show being picked up by another network, which sadly didn't happen. It would be nice if at least one more episode was made to give a better "ending" to the show, but sadly that doesn't seem to be.
Jason Lee busy with a fairly successful movie carrer especially with the huge success of play Dave on the highly successful Alvin and the Chipmunk flims and is also doing a new show on TNT called Memphis Beat, so another an "ending episode" and another season seems pretty unlikely.
Though in my opinion, I enjoy when a show goes out while still being a really good show, like the Muppet show, Fraggle Rock, Everybody Loves Raymond, and My Name is Earl are shows that I put into that group of great shows that could of pretty have an even longer runner. I really don't like it when shows seem to have stay on the air longer than they should of, which makes it hard for me to enjoy even the early epsidoes when the show was really good, examples for me include "That 70's Show" and "the Drew Carey Show." That's just my opinion.
