Six Feet Under

I'm sad that Six Feet Under is ending. I love it. Angela and I don't watch many shows, but that is one that we never miss. Well, I'm a liar. We did miss it last night but we Tivoed it and we're going to watch it as soon as we can.

Angela's grandmother arrived last night at 8:01pm, right after they did the "last week on Six Feet Under" recap, and smack dab in the middle of the theme song. Dang it! Eunice is a sweet lady and I love her dearly, but if only she would have planned the ten hour drive through three thunderstorms a little bit better and arrived at 9. Kidding! Before you start writing nasty comments...we were happy to see her, at whatever time she happened to arrive. We could have invited her to watch it with us I suppose, but the idea that Nate died from complications of a stroke he suffered after having sex with someone other than his pregnant wife as a means of finding inner peace might be a little bit much for her.

Maybe we should have turned Six Feet Under off completely, but we left the TV in the bedroom on HBO while we visited with Eunice in the living room. I walked through the bedroom once to go plug my cell phone in or something, and as I was leaving again I saw Claire get into a car accident. Spoiler! Don't ya hate that?! Now the suspense is killing me. Is she okay? Is the whole cast going to be six feet under by the time the series ends next week? I haven't told Angela about the accident. It would worry her too much, and she's trying to have quality time with her grandmother.

Michael Blake makes fun of me on Kidd's warm up show (5-6am), for never watching the cool TV shows like American Idol, The Bachelor, and other reality crapola. Maybe I'm just an oddball, but I don't see the appeal in those. HBO and Showtime's original series are much more clever. And smart. I like smart. Now that Six Feet Under is ending I guess I'll have to get hooked on Weeds.

Jen, my Honey and I LOVE SFU!!!!!!!!!! We never miss it either and we're SO SAD it's ending. I wish you'd seen last night's episode so we could discuss. OMGosh ... you will DIE (die I say!) at a particular scene. It's so disturbing that I haven't been able to shake it even today. I won't give anything away. But I'm sure you'll agree. I've got the heebie-jeebies right now just thinking about it. How in the world are they going to end the series??? Next week is 75 mins - so excited!! Have a good evening! :-)
