Six Feet Under: One of the most satisfying endings ever for a TV show
That's all I'm going to say - don't want to spoil it for others

RIP SFU - what an amazing and incredible show!

7. I'm so amazed, I can't even watch Entourage tonight
it doesn't seem right to end my evening with another show so I'll catch Entourage tomorrow night instead!

26. As soon as it ended, I had to get on the computer and
find a thread or threads discussing it, as my husband doesn't watch it and I had no one to talk about it with. Thanks again, DU, for giving me someone to talk to when I need to.

I could really relate to David on so many levels and he will be sorely missed every week.

18. I didn't think so.
The whole theme of the show was death. So the ending was absolutely perfect.

24. They even left a blank white screen for us to
"fill in the blank" with our own name before the credits rolled.

Or so it seemed to me.

13. That definately ripped my guts OUT.
They didn't have to do that. I'm exhausted now from all the crying, but you are right. It is satisfying.

15. Brilliantly done
Edited on Sun Aug-21-05 09:46 PM by anti_shrub
Actually I'm amazed that no one else ever thought of an ending like the one they did, since it addresses what a lot of people think when a show ends.

*edit* removing possible west-coast spoilers...sorry folks!

25. It was gorgeous.
Edited on Sun Aug-21-05 09:42 PM by Kurovski
There were things that I've heard in my own life written into this.

Only three very small spots seemed jarring, but they had to expedite things and the rest was so breathtaking, I forgot about them after they happened.

Did anyone catch the "TV" jokes? When Kieth and David were "doing what they did", the boys were watching "Fairly Odd Parents". And when Ruth was going deep into her "thing" She was watching "Just Shoot Me."

Edit: took out spoilers.

32. These writers are geniuses!
they ended this wonderful show about life and death exactly as they should have. I loved the flash forwards. So many shows leave you wondering what happens to the characters. I still cannot get over how amazing this ending was. Emmy's and Golden Globe better do the right thing. I think Claire was amazing this season. Her work deserves an award.

I will miss this show tremendously...:cry:
