In some ways, HBO's Six Feet Under plays kid brother to stellar BMOC The Sopranos: it's spunkier, less refined, chancier, and a bit of a punk. Nevertheless, the show set in the Southern California mortuary Fisher and Sons deserves its place in the pantheon of great television series. The initial season was a showcase for the most original characters, including tight-lipped brother David (Michael C. Hall) coming out of the closet, emotionally trippy mom Ruth (Frances Conroy), and the most complex girlfriend on the face of the planet, Brenda (Rachel Griffiths). Slowly, the major force in season 2 is the unassuming lead, Peter Krause. Part of the long line of good-looking actors who never get respect because they make it look too easy, Krause (Sports Night) finds the perfect blend of optimism with a wonderful, bittersweet anguish as Nate, the prodigal son. The initial season's happy ending is forgotten as relationships change, the business is still under fire from the evil conglomerate Kroehner, and a lively dream sequence is just around the corner. As with the premier season, creator Alan Ball lets many others direct and write the show, but his stamp is all over it. The eccentricities of the characters are shaped, and not always suddenly. Take daughter Claire (Lauren Ambrose), who sheds her bad boyfriend only to find more complex relationships on her road to discovering her own groove. One person in the mix is Ruth's beatnik sister (Patricia Clarkson, in an Emmy-winning role), a joyous embodiment of thriving--if aging--counter culture. Another new character is Nate's old girlfriend, the granola-loving Lisa (Lili Taylor). With Brenda heading down another destructive course, Nate is at more than one crossroads by season's end. For fans who groove with the wild, serio-comedic world of the Fishers (and let's face it, many didn't), the second season goes down like a fine meal of fusion cuisine. The show shares an unfortunate family trait with its HBO big brother: although both were lavished with multiple Emmy nominations the first two seasons, both took home only token awards. But then there's always next year. --Doug Thomas

A story that hits the mark on many levels of the family and its dynamics December 27, 2008
Six Feet Under was enjoyable the first time around watching it and even more so the second and third time around. The story lines are well written. I enjoy the fact the Fisher family is shown in all its dyfunction and the way society handles a upper middle class family.

Ten Feet Above November 18, 2008
Kind of movie that is very interesting to watch. Exciting scenes, some to make you cry. All the actors are superb and are totally right for their role in the movie. Perhaps Krause and Hall would make a good gay movie??? I rate this a ten along with Queer For Folk. Thanks for a fab. series.
The Most Original Series Out There July 11, 2008
If you're looking for something original and unique, you've found out. Six Feet Under is unlike any other TV show I've ever seen. It's fascenating and I'm hooked!!
Season 1 was a little slow for me, but I am so glad that I stuck it out. In this season we come to know the characters better, the stories get a bit more interesting and it becomes apparent that death happens in many ways and there's always an interesting story behind it and behind the person.
Run, don't walk to the video store or where ever you have to go to get this series. It's amazing!
Six Feet Under Second season April 5, 2008
Six Feet Under is not for teens or young children. It's full of adult content. It might not be for anyone who wouldn't want to watch show with gay couple in it or hear all the cussing. But I find this series to be very well done and story lines so true to life. I have enjoyed the whole series from start to finish. I'll watch it again too.
