Previously on My Name is Earl, Earl awoke to the realization that he had to actually get to know Billie, the woman he just married. It turned out that she wasn't his dream woman after all. While he took Joy's advice to learn to live with the little annoyances, Earl found it impossible where karma was concerned.
It seems that Earl has had the last straw after Billie asked him to shave his mustache. Fans will see how this one turns out on tonight's season finale. Read on for a preview.

Before we get into this week's My Name is Earl, which featured Jon Heder, let's recap what's happened in the season so far. We started off with Earl in prison after admitting to a crime he didn't commit in order to protect his ex-wife and the unborn baby she was carrying. Once inside, he struck a deal with the warden to work off his time through various tasks, lost all of certificates and, eventually, just escaped. In escaping, however, he was officially pardoned for his crimes, where he promptly gave up his list and was struck by a car. After spending weeks in a coma, leaving his brother, Randy, to finish his karma list for him, he wakes up from a lifetime-long dream where he married his dream girl, Billie (Alyssa Milano), decides to seek her out, finds her and promptly marries her. So basically he went from an inmate to a disillusioned criminal to a coma patient to a married man in one season. That's quite a jump from the first three seasons of Earl merely scratching another item off his list each episode.

This week's My Name Is Earl, again starring Alyssa Milano as Earl's make-believe wife, gives us the conclusion of the "Earl in a coma" saga. Unconvinced that his good deeds will succeed in rising his brother out of his coma, Randy takes Earl out into the world to allow him to his own list item. With nothing but the best intentions, Randy searches frantically for a list-item Earl can accomplish himself, despite being unconscious.

Last week on My Name is Earl, Earl was left in a coma and trapped in his TV Land subconscious, leaving it up to Randy to finish off his list for him. This week, Randy and Joy take their first stab at the karma list. Using Earl's drool to choose their task, they select an incident where he and Randy stole a motorcycle. The owners of the bike turn out to be the hosts of American Chopper.
In Earl's coma dream, he is greeted with the wonderful news that his imaginary wife, Billie (Alyssa Milano) is pregnant with their baby. Accidentally eavesdropping on a phone conversation with their make-believe neighbor, Joy, Earl believes them to be talking about an affair Billie is having with another man. In typical sitcom fashion, this misunderstanding leads to some outrageous circumstances and ends up foreshadowing Randy and Joy's real-life adventure.

After the long hiatus, My Name Is Earl finally returns with an hour long second-half-of-the-season premiere. Following suit with the beginning of the season, it again had various guest stars, not only featuring Alyssa Milano as Earl's love interest, but also giving us Carrie Aizley and Paris Hilton.
We open with the NBC President taking time to give us a quick recap of what happened prior to the writer's strike, taking care to poke fun at the writers with some jabs undoubtedly scripted by the writers themselves.

If wishes really could come true, I believe that we'd never see the likes of Paris Hilton or Kevin Federline on our television screens again. However, we live in a world where wishes are nothing but wasted breath, which is why K-Fed just finished up a three episode arc on One Tree Hill and Paris Hilton will soon be appearing on NBC. Yes, the network announced today that the airheaded heiress will be embarrassing herself on the one hour return of My Name is Earl on April 3. The episode, entitled "I Won't Die With A Little Help From My Friends," finds Earl unconscious and seeing various things from the real world in his comatose state. One of the things that pops up in Earl's mind is Paris Hilton, who will be playing herself in the episode.

He quickly meets up with his old crime buddy, Ralph (Giovanni Ribisi) and is soon back to his old ways, much to the disappointment of his friends and peers.
