Six Feet Under

[bcholmes]

So 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.

OH JUST WAIT.

I love that show. Lost cable before I could watch the last season, unfortunately. But the writing was so good, and the characters were so wonderful in their fucked-upedness.

It is a show where everything has consequences. Often fatal ones.

right now I'm working my way through Northern Exposure.

Mmm...I loved that show. Didn't manage to see all of it.

Also loved Northern Exposure, which Laura Seabrook mentioned above. Good ensemble shows are delicious.

I watched from beginning to end. Some of it will blow you away. The final episode for sure.
