Six Feet Under - Television at its very best

[leafstk]

I don't know how many of you follow or have followed the HBO Drama, Six Feet Under, but I've been glued to it since its inception. Its had its ups and downs, but its now over and I'd be very interested to hear other people's oppinions on here who have followed the show.

I thought the final show this Sunday was absolutely perfect, though I acknowledge the writing has slipped somewhat the last season or two. I'll admit I cried like a baby the last three or four episodes, it couldn't have been wrapped up better in my oppinion. The main message I guess is, Get busy livin' or get busy dyin' cause its gonna happen, lol. I just wanted to chime in and say that this series deserves mention as one of the top notch television drama's of ALL TIME. Hats off to Alan Ball 🙂

I'm not a cry-baby....but after watching this last episode I'm a little bit worked up.

I don't want to ruin it for anyone, but I'm just going to say that the bonding moment between Ruth and Claire was when my crying turned into loud sobbing that then lead to me crying into a pillow until the end of the show.

.... and those EYES!.... I was truly dumbfounded by this episode, powerful, powerful stuff

It was wrapped up wonderfully, everyone's demons seemed to be killed... and it brought a definite closure, more so than any other series I've witnessed. And if I may add, as much as Nate was the main dude in the series, I think Claire was the focal point from the beginning.... she wanted out of that family surrounding for a LONG time... the way it ended was just brilliant *sobs* 102!!!

Sometimes erotic, sometimes tragic and devastating, sometimes funny and never anything less than sheer pefection.

Completely addicted to this show. I hate when they kill off (no pun) the good ones!

The wife and I really got out of it with the show last year...but this year was MUCH better. We had heard a rumor that all of the characters got killed at the end. Turns out it was true...but so much better than I had expected. We really enjoyed that last show! I especially like how they didn't leave anyone hanging...wondering what the characters lives would be like after the show ended. The only problem (well not really a problem) I had was the way Keith died...why was he working as a guard again?!?! Other than that everyone else kind of went naturally which was kind of nice. Especially the way David saw Keith before croaking!

Overall an excellent show and one of the single most satisfying end to any series I have seen! (Right there with the end of th last Newhart show!)
