Continuity mistake: At the end when Stuart decided to let Earl go he pulls the list out of his pocket, and gives it back to Earl, and it is all crumpled up, but a second later when we see Earl holding the note it is neatly folded.

1/10. White trash meets Eastern spiritualism. Mad Magazine described the show this way in their satire of it and it fits nicely. Despite having some moments of humor it's all boring and too preachy at times. We grow bored soon knowing Earl's going to do something good by the end of each episode. I couldn't honestly believe a white trash guy would suddenly buy into something so out of his depth. The rest aren't better ranging from dumb as all get out to slutty to one even being an illegal alien. Ha, ha. A real barrel of laughs this show.

Police officer: It's police policy not to waste resources looking for a missing person in the first 24 hours because they usually show up on their own, and after 24 hours, if they're still missing, it usually means they're dead and we don't look for them that hard then either.

Trivia: One of the lamps stolen by Ralph is the 'special prize' leg lamp won by the father in A Christmas Story (1983).

Answer: The premise of the show is he atones for mistakes he did in the past. Winning a car for Joy probably atones for something he did wrong regarding her in the past.
