Everything Ends

Wow

I just finished all 3376 minutes with my surrogate family - the Fishers and friends. Finished all five seasons of the HBO series Six Feet Under, created by Alan Ball (American Beauty), and I must admit it had a profound effect on my life. Really, calling it TV is almost an insult, this is a piece of art, in that it makes us question and think about such issues as death, sickness, grief, family, homosexuality, parenting - all of these huge and frightening themes, that so rarely are dared touched by any media. And this from a TV series! It's so fucking brave and beautiful, and at the same time entertaining and funny.

I can without hesitation say that this is the best series ever to come out of TV. I'll miss you.
