Earl Celebrates His Birthday Next Week on "My Name is Earl"  2/9/07

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 15

MY NAME IS EARL (8-8:30 p.m.)

"The Birthday Party"

I'LL CRY IF I WANT TO -- BEAU BRIDGES REPRISE ROLE AS EARL'S DAD 

It's a special episode as Earl (Jason Lee) celebrates his birthday -- but the day not only marks another exciting year in his life, but more importantly, a time for Earl to reflect on all the items he's crossed off his list during the past year. 

When Randy throws Earl a birthday party at the Crab Shack, however, Earl finds it hard to remember the good things he's done when everybody at the party keeps reminding him of how he's screwed up in the past. Right when Earl thinks his day can't get any worse, everybody has a special birthday surprise in store for him. Beau Bridges ("Barnum") reprises his role as Earl's father. 

Nadine Velazquez, Jaime Pressly and Eddie Steeples also star.
