It reminded me of Dead Like Me and Pushing Daisies because it covered the same subject matter.  Only difference is it took place in Heaven.  I found it funny that they said all the artists dwelt in Hell.   I jokingly responded to that, 'Oh, well, guess *I'm* screwed.'  (ROTFL). I also stopped watching Superstore because it was really hitting me way too close to home.   Don't get me wrong, I don't mind laughing at myself and the bad decision I made to re-enter the world of r...
