i have just watched the show a couple of times and i think it is great!!! it is good fun and funny. the band seem like any other group of friends 1 minute they r great the next they r fighting that i think good cause i hate these series where every 1 is best of buddies all the time so that realism is great. also the fact that they all have there own personal problems which help them in there tasks is good most show don't let characters have other lives b4 they became what every they r doing now. its great also the fact that i am the hardest person to please makes it worth a watch! the slightest thing will put me off watching some thing. (for example i did want to c harry potter cause i hated the books and the fact i ex-friend read them!!) but from the moment i saw the trailer for dead last i was hooked!! its suppose to be a kids/teenage series its not meant to have great plots and triller endings just funny and entertaining and thats what it is!!!! BRING IT OUT ON DVD OR VHS I Don't CARE JUST RELEASE IT SO I CAN HAVE IT FOREVER!!!!

There's actually a real-world band called Dead F***ing Last. I wonder whether that's where they got the name for this show.I confess, I only had an interest in watching this thing because Harry Groener was guest-starring on it. But I have since acquired all the episodes on DVD, partly because of Tyler Labine (currently starring on ABC's "Invasion"). He was far and away the most believable and convincing of the three "rock stars". This series wanted to be a supernatural spin on movies like "Almost Famous", and it would have succeeded, had the WB not been such arses about scheduling it. The rest of the cast and the writers would have gotten better with time. It's the curse of television sitcoms that time is one commodity they can't afford.Best episodes: "The Crawford Touch" guest-starring "Ghoulies" Michael DesBarres as a evil rock producer impresario who traps the gang and forces them to contact his resident ghost, a Kurt-Cobain type genius whose final record is hidden/lost forever. "To Live And Amulet Die", simply on the strength of my Harry being in it :) as an evil professor obsessed with gaining the band's magical amulet. The pilot and the lion's share of eps I'm sorry to say weren't that good. But they *would've* gotten better-- and Labine is fun to watch in every single ep; we can only hope "Invasion" kicks him off on the strong career "Dead Last" should have.Just an aside: no series about any band will ever succeed without extended footage of the "band" performing at least one honest to God hit. "Dead Last" made the mistake of cutting away right when The Problem hit the stage. Nobody is going to believe your series about a struggling rock band unless you actually show them playing; I'm sorry, but it's a fact. There's a reason "The Monkees" lasted more than one season.

Dead Last I can say defiantly made an impression from the moment I accidentally channel flicked onto it. This show really was one that stood out because there was a playful banter between the characters, even with the dead folk. It's not everyday you can come across a show that has all the elements of brilliance.From script to the acting, Dead Last, is one of the finest TV moments I've lived through. Luckily after viewing the pilot, I had an obsession to tape the following 12 episodes just so I could have them forever!QUOTE: Vaughn being attacked, almost killed by Nate in the sandwich diner."I don't wanna be next...I wanna be last!" ... We wish it did last!

It is such a cool show, it makes you feel good, that your not the only one talking to ghosts :P I gotta say, this movie might seem weird sometimes, but the hot guys in it keep you in your seat. Especially Kett Turton. That dark hair, dark looks, and when he smiles he just melts you.
