FB Post - Am rewatching the fabulous HBO series SIX FEET UNDER, written and produced by Alan Ball. It;s the story of an L.A. family, the Fishers, who live above the funeral parlour that they operate. It is pure geniusl I've already seen the entire series twice (it is that good!), once with an old friend on our weekend dinner and movie binge nights, and again on the box set (VHS methinks) purchased at BMV. I have since given it away. It's available for rent or purchase on Google Play.

A beautifully written and executed series. More than death, this show is about life and in each episode you find new reasons to be thankful for the people that surround us, our circumstances, the beauty of the simple things... A must watch

One of my all time favorite show. One of the first and few shows to know how to make a proper final episode
