* [[Angst? What Angst?]]: Despite the fact that he was doing his wife behind his back, and she eventually left Earl for him, Earl and Darnell are best buds, once even bonding over a shared naked dance from Joy. Darnell was hiding in the closet.
** This troper admired this mature way of solving the conflict. By the way, don't forget that Earl hadn't married Joy out of love, Joy had tricked him into the marriage with a stranger's child. It would be no wonder if Earl was even grateful to Darnell for disburdening him.
* [[Author's Saving Throw]]: The pilot episode glossed over the circumstances of Joy's infidelity with Darnell and Earl's reaction to seeing "his" child turn out black, which mostly played it for laughs. "Look What's Coming Out Of Joy" showed that Joy did regret cheating on him and genuinely hoped the baby was Earl's, Darnell wasn't entirely an absent father and still sought to be in his kid's life secretly, and Earl was devastated when he finally realized the truth and would have left Joy if his father didn't encourage him to stay just for the kid's sake.
