Six Feet Under
Aug. 4th, 2008 09:05 pmSo I just started watching Six Feet Under recently. I hadn't seen it before. It's kinda funny recognizing all these actors from other works. Look! Dexter, and the wife from Ira and Abbey and the cop from The Lost Room and the college student from Starting Out in the Evening!
I'd heard that it was well-written, and I've been quite impressed with the writing so far. I'm part-way in to the second season. In an episode I watched tonight, there's a great sequence in which Nate visits his friend (Lili Taylor) and there's this great scene where the text doesn't confirm that they slept together, but everything about their goodbye scene makes it clear that they did. And all they're talking about is a shirt. Very nice.
