What you (don't) know about the creator of My Name is Earl

Anyone with an eye for detail knows that the Internet Movie Database isn't always accurate in
its bio or trivia sections. This isn't so much the fault of the site as it the fault of people who submit information,
but in the case of My Name is Earl creator Gregory Thomas Garcia, he has only himself to blame. It seems that
Garcia actually submitted some information about himself for his IMDb page which stated he was the grandson of
Cantinflas, a Mexican comedian who passed away over ten years ago. The thing is, it's not true. Garcia was just having
a bit of fun, but that little tidbit has made it's way into a few news stories about him. I've always found the truth
to be overrated, anyway.
