Dead Like Me (Seasons 1–2)

Dead Like Me (2003) is a darkly funny Showtime drama you can watch online on iFILM. Eighteen-year-old George Lass dies when a toilet seat falls out of orbit and lands on her head. No tunnel, no light, no peace — just a new job collecting souls.

George is drafted into a crew of grim reapers who pluck people's souls a moment before they die, then loiter through their afterlives like everyone else. Mandy Patinkin plays Rube, the dry, unbothered boss who runs the team out of a waffle house and a temp office. Around him: smug Roxy, slacker Mason, and needling Daisy. Ellen Muth makes George a sulky, resentful kid who only starts growing up once she's dead, watching strangers' last seconds and slowly learning what her own life was worth.

Created by Bryan Fuller before Hannibal and Pushing Daisies, the series ran two seasons and 29 episodes, treating death as ordinary office work rather than tragedy. If you like deadpan humor with a real ache underneath it, this one lands. Stream Dead Like Me online on iFILM.
