Six Feet Under (2001)

Every episode (barring the finale) begins with the death of someone. How much more twisted can you get? As it turns out, plenty more. My favourite TV series of all time, perhaps.

Much better production values than most TV shows of its time, I never really though the show was that great. Sure, there were great episodes. But my major complaints are with the writing. There are obvious attempts to sensationalize numerous story lines, and certain characters behave totally out of character at times to advance these sensationalist storylines. One example is Nate from season three onward. On the other hand the Brenda character actually starts to become more believable in later seasons. So I do have mixed feelings about the show. It certainly wasn't perfect.

Six Feet Under has to be one of the best ideas ever created for a television series. What can you expect but satire and dark comedy in a show that revolves around a funeral parlor family... Brilliantly written and directed. Funny, dramatic, melodramatic... You either love it, or hate it.
My only reason for not voting this 10/10: I didn't care for the series' finale, I thought it could have been waaay better, but it certainly still remains a great series to watch at least once in your lifetime. Give it a chance, if you haven't yet!

When Six Feet Under was all said and done, it was hands down my favorite TV show of all time. Unless something dramatically peeks my interest, it continue to stay that way for my entire life.

The only show that ever made me laugh out loud and cry out loud. The Sopranos will never touch this.
