[TV] Six Feet Under/Entourage finales

I Tivo'd them both, and last night watched Entourage...It was ok, but the nudity helped out a lot...

I will be watching Six Feet Under tonight...

I can't believe there both over... What the hell will I be doing Sunday night?

 

The only reason I've watched any of SFU this year is because of Rico and Vanessa.... OK and Claire & co. But as for any of the other people, I just wasn't impressed with them this year.

 

I thought that was the best Six Feet Under episode all season. I really didn't see that whole Lisa's brother in law thing coming. It sucks that we'll have to wait another year and a half or however long it is....this is my favorite show on TV.

I tivo'd Entourage and I'll be watching it tonight, along with Dr. 90210

 

Heard great thing about this show but I haven;t seen a single episode of it yet. I'm totally hooked on The L Word. Now that's an awesome show!!

 

Damn, I'm trying to get a Tivo but the only problem is that I'm not from the US so pretty much finding out if its easy to hack the thing.

 

IMO, that was the best SFU of the season. In fact, after watching it, I almost felt like it made up for a season that was, at least for me, a disappointment. The whole thing just felt disjointed and disturbing - more like an ode to disfunctionality and drug use than a portrait of a troubled family.

The acting was good as usual, but the storylines were obtuse with plots that seemed to come out of nowhere and just disappear into thin air.

The finale really brought closure to some things and left others wide open. It was hopeful (if gross with the nasty opening sequence) and felt like some of the earlier season episodes - like it actually meant something.

 

I perfectly agree with this assessment. In earlier seasons I was a lot more into the characters and this season left me kinda disappointed in the direction the writers took claire and david (among others).

One thing I did like is that the writers actually made me feel guilty for Lisa being gone. I remember watching with my sister and actually rooting for Lisa to have died.... but when it really happens and you see the aftermath... it sucked. This show just bleeds life lessons.

 

Not the best season for SFU, the finale was one of the best episodes, but I gotta go with the David kidnapping episode as the best of this season. Some of the scenes in that episode were so intense it was hard to watch, it made me realize how scary something like that would be and how thankful I'd be to come out of it alive.

 

I freakin' HATED that episode. I mean, 30 minutes of nothing but David being tortured by some sociopath lowlife? WTF??? It took me like two days just to get over watching it. It sucked beyond belief. What's worse, your point about coming out thankful to be alive is exactly what DIDN'T happen to David. In fact, the way he became terrified and miserable is common with post-traumatic stress. It took an entire season and a visit from dear old dead dad to begin to set things right.

Apparently, HBO and the producers of the show received boatloads of complaints for that one.

 

Watch SFU and I didn't see the brother in law thing coming at all...Very wierd...The Rico/Vanessa thing hits home and I hope I see MenuS next season...

Overall, a real good season, but I missed Arthur...
