Dead to Me (2019-2022) - Important Main Prop Bird.
Made of wood.
Original prop bird that plays a major role in the Liz Feldman created comedy television series 'Dead to Me' (2019-2022), starring Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini as two grieving women who bond during therapy.
The prop bird plays a big role in season 1 when Jen kills Steve by bludgeoning him with a toy bird that Judy gifted to Jen's younger son, Henry (Luke Roessler). It happened in a fit of rage after Steve teased Jen about the way he and Judy hit Jen's husband, Ted, with their car. Jen hides the murder weapon in her safe. That's where the bird remains at the beginning of season 3. The mystery of Steve's death begins to unravel in Dead to Me Season 3 when police find his body. Upon further investigation, they find something stuck in Steve's skull - the bird's tail.
Aside from the bird's literal significance as the murder weapon in Dead to Me, it's also symbolic. Birds frequently appear throughout seasons 2 and 3 - the bird in Jen's garage, Judy's sparrow bracelet, the thousand paper cranes, and of course, the wooden bird. As Thayer Birding notes, some species of bird - including the sparrow and the crane - symbolize freedom. When Jen killed Steve with the wooden bird, it might have symbolized Judy finally being free from her abusive ex. Birds can also be a symbol of strength, grace, death, love, and happiness, all of which are explored throughout Dead to Me.
