"Offbeat and utterly charming." - New York Times


CENTURY CITY, Calif. - Everyone's favorite white-trash, dim-witted loveable loser, Earl Hickey continues his hilarious plight to make up for a lengthy list of detestable deeds in his quest to become a better person, as "My Name Is Earl" Season Three arrives on DVD September 30 from Fox Home Entertainment. Earl's life has been full of poor choices and mistakes, but after winning a lottery jackpot he has an epiphany and vows to change his ways. In the third season of the Emmy Award-winning series, Earl finds himself back in prison, where he attempts to end the war between two rival gangs and needs all the help he can get to survive on the inside. Come visit Inmate 28307-016 and the rest of Camden County's losers, users and boozers in the outrageous, uproarious and always inappropriate Season Three of "My Name Is Earl."

Jason Lee (Alvin and the Chipmunks) leads the charge in his Golden Globe-nominated role as Earl, the man trying to do right his past. He is joined by an outrageous ensemble cast including Ethan Suplee (Cold Mountain) as Earl's hapless brother Randy, Nadine Velazquez, ("The Bold and the Beautiful") as the sexy love interest Catalina, Eddie Steeples (Torque) as Crab Shack owner Darnell and Jaime Pressly (Not Another Teen Movie) in her Emmy Award-winning role as Earl's ex-wife Joy.

Season Three features appearances from guest stars such as Paris Hilton, Giovanni Ribisi ("Friends"), Craig T. Nelson ("Coach"), Beau Bridges (Stargate) and Alyssa Milano ("Charmed"). A critic and fan favorite, "My Name Is Earl" has received the People's Choice Award, two Television Critics Awards, a Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series and Emmy Awards for writing, directing, casting and editing. The "My Name Is Earl" Season Three DVD collection includes all 22 half-hour episodes plus bonus features including gag reel, "Creating The Characters" featurette, deleted scenes and more; the DVD set will be available for the suggested retail price of $49.98 U.S. / $69.98 Canada.


SYNOPSIS:
Life behind bars is a real pain in the butt. Just ask Earl, whose commitment to good karma has landed him in the Big House. His shackled hands are full: there's a gang war to stifle and a gala prison prom to plan. Even conjugal visit day is one big headache! With a pregnant ex-wife and a hilariously inept prison guard for a brother, Earl suffers a karmic crisis and finally goes over the top!
