interesting. I first watched the series as a whole when I was also Claires age, and now I"m almost 33 and am *dying* to rewatch it. I have such a specific pleasant memory of the first viewing and I almost dont want to taint that. My best friend Kelly had become obsessed with SFU as her family had HBO and mine didnt. so when they came out with the DVD set, she bought them all (I bought Sex and the City lol) and after school on Fridays, we would walk to my house, pack the bong and watch another episode. It was so profound we would end up talking about it the rest of the weekend. Later on the Friday nights, we would start drinking and reenating scenes or drunk drawing portraits of the characters 😂 I still remember waiting to see the last episode, and I cried like a baby. There was a beautiful Oak tree outside my bedroom window. I sat on the bed next to it, with Kelly on the left side of me. This way the cigarette smoke could et caught in the wind and taken outside. the leaves all different colors, and the sun was setting on the Friday we watched the ending, it was around Thanksgiving/Christmas time at 4pm. Some things are just so perrfect, you just never forget. See why I dont know if I should rewatch them? lol xoxo

This entire show was actually described in one statement via Claire’s first Gallery art show (the one she had this graveyard picture and a lady relaxing and having her beer ). This might have actually impacted my thoughts of Train for a while. And thank you not for such a satisfying ending. I could have never imagine it. It’s just indescribable.

I first watched it during lockdown and quickly realized that it was one of the most POWERFUL and moving pieces of storytelling art I've ever experienced. So few people realize the brilliance of the writing, acting and directing, this is a very special show. This is a show that isn't afraid to explore how messy, beautiful, terrible, scary and profoundly blissful life can be. Incredibly realized characters portrayed y brilliant actors at the top of their game, I just can't get over the uniqueness of the show, I've never seen another show like this. Sopranos was close and shared a lot of the same brilliance but in the end, Sopranos came off to me as more of a story of a character, whereas I found the characters and experience of Six Feet Under were simply more relatable to my real life. Each characters arc is, at least interesting, and at best, incredibly deep and moving. I really liked how the show doesn't really have heroes or villains, just filled with real characters trying to make their way through this insane thing we all find ourselves in. And yes, the final episode is probably one of the most perfect endings I've ever seen, it's absolutely profound. If you've never watched, you need to. I salute you Mr. Ball and your cast. Well done.

I have watched SFU about five times, and it amazes me how different the experience has been. From the first curious, really sad and exciting time 20 years ago where it blew my mind, to now laughing through most of it - it is just so quirky. But the saddest scenes still hits just as hard now. I also changed my mind completely about Lisa, from just being annoyed at her to thinking she was one of the best characters on the show :)

@maspleben 2 жыл бұрын

Right? Thank you for your comment, I am exactly in the same position. Lisa's character appears to me now as so tragic. In fact I really like what they did with her character. As you say, despite watching it multiple times and finding most of it so pleasant, there are these moments that are still terrifying for me to experience in the show. And I think the most dreadful part for me is the finale of season 4, when the truth about Lisa's disappearance is revealed. And before that, when Nate accepts the death of Lisa and her "death white screen" appears, making it the truth.

I feel like he was saying that the network was slightly worried about him directing the pilot because he had never directed before (he wrote the screenplay for American Beauty but Sam Mendes directed it). He didn’t say that they were doubting his ability, they were just apprehensive since it was his first time directing. I’m sure they wouldn’t have allowed it if they didn’t fully believe in his capabilities. He went on to direct 5 more episodes of SFU so he certainly proved himself! 🙂

I just finished watching the whole show. I watched some of it when it originally aired in the UK and the first scene with Brenda and Nate at the airport left an impression that this was an edgy show. I think 5 seasons was the perfect length - long enough for the characters to have proper arcs but not dragged on too long so as to get ridiculous or boring. I really love all the Fisher characters and how over the course of the series they become so open and close and loving with each other. I also love the little edits with fantasies/hallucinations that really highlights how even in moments where people feel alone or scared or sad, they're all kind of tied together by the people who visit them in those visions. I literally finished the last episode about 20 minutes ago and am still processing what I think about it - I'll be honest, I'm a bit sceptical about shows that fast forward into the future like that for the last episode, and I think parts of that sequence were a little corny or over-the-top, but I guess the concept made sense for a show about life and death. I will say though that this video missed an opportunity to have the end credits as a white screen saying: Six Feet Under 2001 - 2005

Finished the series for the first time a few days ago. Such an amazing series. The finale will really stay with me for a while. That shot of David remembering Keith just destroyed me.

Totally enjoyed this show and where I first saw Michael C Hall. David and Keith are my favourite couple in the show. A reunion would be great . 👍

I love the show. I watched it many years ago and now I got the box set. It was an excelent script, with many great scenes. 🥰 Greetings from Chile.

Watched it for the first time, watched the finale yesterday. Wow. This serie ends very unraveling and confronting in a short burt. It gives the brain many things to digest

Just finished the last season. Oh how much I LOVED this show. Not sure why it took 20 years to get in my radar but it is so well done and yes, the finale is THE BEST. Well done, everyone. Thank you!

In the last episode, Brenda's death was the funniest and David's death was the saddest for me because he saw Keith before he died!

This show has been my favorite since it premiered. The laughs, anger and tears.. the way i bawled when Nate died. I still feel all those emotions when I rewatch it. Brilliant show

I have never watched much TV. But this show was sooo great and meaningful, and I got hooked in. :) I have been drawn back to watching it lately. Will be interesting to see how it is, now at 55. I bet it will be even better. Watched the last scene 3 times the other eve, bawled my eyes out, again ❤

Just watched it (again) but this time with my twenty something daughter and we both loved it. I was thrilled that she loved it as much as I did… I mean who wouldn’t. Perfectly cast!

Brilliant show, I was addicted almost immediately....but when you binge watch this particular show, and you suffer from depression as a result of losing quite a few loved ones.....damn, this show will drain you emotionally, so much that by the time you get to the end, you're probably gonna find yourself in a really REALLY dark place. I tried to watch it again a couple years ago because I really liked the show, but I just couldn't get very far. Its too painful.

Remember watching this series as it aired being blown away start to finish. Having just re-watched recently- and since airing, both my dad & oldest brother passed....well, it was very different experience and even more impactful the second time around. Still one of my favorite series ever made.

I recently started rewatching this series (I was a huge fan when it came out in 2001). I lost my dad last year and this show seriously hits a lot differently once you’ve gone through that kind of grief. Also, I can’t believe these people have barely aged in 20 years! They all look so fantastic! ❤

Rewatched the entire series again, finishing just yesterday. I watched it for the first time I think when it first came out on DVD (Blockbuster or the Netflix-as-DVD-mailing-service), and LOVED the show both times. I rewatched the ending scene many, many times, since everything about that ending was perfect, but the last time I watched just the ending scene, I'd forgotten a lot about what had happened in the rest of the show, so I figured it was time to rewatch it since it was on Netflix (now, a streaming service, with no red envelope in the mail).

I've been looking for a show that resonated with me as much as Six Feet Under for 20 years and I don't think there ever will be. The Fishers will be with me forever.
