The Joy of Joy's Hair: A Tribute to the Hair of My Name is Earl's Jaime Pressly

A consistently funny (if somewhat subtle) reoccurring joke on the frequently gay-friendly NBC show My Name is Earl is the fact that Earl's trashy, trailer-park-living ex-wife Joy (played freakin' hilariously by Jaime Pressly) has never had the same hairstyle twice. But after 72 episodes (and counting), the show's miracle-working hairstylists have been forced to make Joy's "do's" increasingly ridiculous (and, correspondingly, more freakin' hilarious).

To prove all that work has not been in vain, the eagle-eyed viewers here at AfterElton present...The Joy of Joy's Hair: A Photo Tribute to the Many Trashy Do's of Jaime Pressly!

Incidentally, f you've never watched the show, check out this "We Are the World"-type promo clip from the start of this season (when Earl was in prison), which is simultaneously satirizing about six different things (and also includes a brief appearance by series reoccurring character, Gay Kenny). If, like me, you think it's (freakin') hilarious, this show is for you. It's on Thursdays at 8 PM on NBC, or watch the episodes online.

Like i said, it's subtle! But now that I've called attention to it, you'll notice it in every show!
