Been watching the first season of “Six Feet Under” on DVD and enjoying it immensely. It’s like an Anne Tyler novel come to life. The acting and writing and visual look of it are all outstanding. Plus it’s refreshing to see popular entertainment deal with death and dying, even in SFU’s relatively mild fashion.
Saw Michael C. Hall, who plays gay mortician David Fisher, on Leno last night. He seemed to hold his wedding ring up in front of his face like a shield throughout the interview. Then as he was wrapping up the interview, Leno said, “Nice to meet you. AND NICE TO MEET YOUR WIFE AS WELL.”
How odd. I just watched the first episode on DVD today myself. I completely agree with your review, it’s an excellent show.
I’m glad you got to see the show. I still haven’t seen much of season one, but the DVD set is a bit pricey. Hope you get to see season 3 when it starts tomorrow night.
Around here, the first season DVD set is about $80, which is like renting each disc four times.
