Mason (1939-1966) is a fictional character on the Showtime comedy-drama Dead Like Me portrayed by actor Callum Blue.

Fictional character history

Mason claims he was born at a rock and roll concert behind the amplifiers and died drilling a hole in his own head seeking a permanent high. Mason is originally from London (he reaped Rolling Stones guitarist Brian Jones in 1969), and was transferred to his present location some time ago. He is the only reaper besides George whose doppelgänger has been depicted. When he appears to fellow reapers, he is portrayed by Callum Blue.

Mason collects money from the dead, deals, smuggles and uses drugs. He has become an alcoholic in response to the pressures of his job. He is attracted to Daisy, and is often protective of her. He became jealous when she became attracted to another man called Ray (Eric McCormack), whom Mason felt was dangerous; Mason eventually killed him while trying to protect her. While he is drawn to attractive females, his feelings for Daisy seem to run much deeper. He has an edgy relationship with Rube; they dislike, but tolerate each other. Rube has on more than one occasion referred to Mason as "a fuck-up".
