Pros: Some good moments, watchable, interesting concept, David/Keith
Cons: Some flat characters and dull moments, not as deep as it thinks it is
Summary: Six Feet Under is the HBO show that everyone seems to love for some reason. I knew I had to investigate especially after my friend, for years, had been raving about the show--telling me that it was going to be my new passion. Well, as much as I ... read more

Pros: cast and writing absolutely dead on, outstanding series
Cons: none for me
Summary: To say that Six Feet Under was a tad bit bizarre is putting it mildly. Since it aired on cable the language and activities are more straight forward than on conventional TV. The run time was from 2001-2005, 63 episodes, nominated for 164 awards ... read more

Pros: Michael C. Hall, great premise, interesting storyline
Cons: some dull characters like Nate and Claire, a few annoying loose ends
Summary: While waiting for the latest season of Dexter- I decided to go back to the series that helped Michael C. Hall find stardom. An excellent mix of dark humor and morbid themes, Six Feet Under explores the life of an odd family and their two sons, Nate ... read more

Pros: Endlessly inventive and amazingly well-acted.
Cons: Nothing worth mentioning here.
Summary: NOTE: The bulk of the review below was written a couple of years ago, and only after seeing Season 1. Since that time, I've seen the whole show, and will provide an "update" to my thoughts at the very bottom. *********** Thank God for DVDs. We do ... read more

Pros: Brilliant, one of the best shows ever
Cons: Too morbid for some people's tastes
Summary: Words can hardly express my excitement regarding this show. I simply loved every second of it! The intrigue is rich, the characters - well-drawn and constantly improving, filled with sarcasm. Also, the direction, writing and acting are absolutely ... read more

Pros: Best Drama on TV - Hands down - Fascinating on many levels
Cons: None
Summary: What a stellar first season. This is a premier drama that only shows on HBO. A drama that resides in a home mortuary - how original and compelling is that! Even though death is a major theme, it never comes across as ghoulish. The begining of each ... read more

Pros: Basically everything.
Cons: Graphic imagery.
Summary: When I saw the preview even before the series started I was interested in the series. The characters seemed very, very, very interesting. The story I was clueless about. When I watched episode 1 I immediately wanted more. Six Feet Under turned out ... read more

Pros: Original, Strong Cast, Interesting Character Development, Expect the Unexpected
Cons: Subject matter may be offensive to some viewers
Summary: If you have not tuned in on this HBO series yet, consider yourself forewarned, this show is not for the fainthearted. This bizarre series is jam packed with sexually explicit trysts (both heterosexual and homosexual), graphic death scenes, vulgar ... read more

Cons: Depicts the realities of death and dying.

Pros: The acting and the ever improving story lines. Revolving guest stars.
Cons: Their business is death, the guest stars disappear faster than Murphy Brown's Secretaries
Summary: Now that the first season has come to an end, I feel that I can give Six Feet Under an appropriate opinion. Like reading a good book or watching a classic movie, you have to see episodic television from the beginning of the season till the bitter ... read more

Pros: Wonderful odd(in a good way) plot line, cast is full of personality, Uncensored
Cons: May be too graphic for some, maybe difficult understand if starting from the middle
Summary: The creator of the movie "American Beauty" Takes his talent to the 'small screen'. In fact it's anything but small, it's like watching a mini-movie every week, I look forward to it and as the season finale nears I'm really excited, but sad to see the new ... read more

Rated Show by the Epinions community Oct 8, 2004
Pros: Many compelling story lines and a great comedic element mixed together.
Cons: A bit graphic. Not a family series for the younger crowd.
Summary: This show really captured me. I did not get familiar with it when it was on cable but was introduced to it by my Mom. I then just rented the season all together and this proved to be a great way to watch this series. The characters in the program
