Did we have a 'Six Feet Under' discussion thread yet? <spoilers>
Last night's episode was really good. David is so totally going off the deep end and Freddy really screwed up. And Claire, what's with her. Is she a lesbian or just bi-curious or is it just a 'college thing'

This has been the best season yet!

1. The worst episode was the david fag bashing episode. What a bore
that was, I was hoping for him to off him by the end because david wa so damn stupid. The Claire thing, at least she's with a hot lesbian! Go for it Claire! Freddy...LOL...just like a guy. What I couldn't understand was Brenda telling Joe half the truth then lying about if he knew Nate? WTF? If you're going to tell only half the truth what's the point?

5. I could barely watch that episode
But I am positive that he will get an award for that. I normally watch the first episode at 9 pm, then re-watch it later when my hubby gets home from work. I couldn't watch it a second time.

I'm sure Nate & Brenda will get back together. The new guy doesn't have a chance.

Freddy...what was he thinking? Stupid men.

We need a lot more from Kathy Bates, I hope she hangs around for the rest of the season.

6. The episode was painful and disturbing, but it had a good payoff....
...in the last couple of episodes.

Seeing someone trying to cope with post traumatic stress is a pretty good story.

8. I was actually flinching by the end of it...

He will definitely get an Emmy for it. The flashback scene from last night with a gun in his mouth, gave me shivers.

I just really, really hope that David doesn't start doing drugs...


(on edit: I can't spell)

9. Did he smoke the crack in that episode?
Or was that just another fantasy sequence. I mean, if he did smoke the crack, he was pretty turned on by it and I could see him reverting to that!

11. Yes he did, thats why I think
That if the flashbacks get to bad he will start using. He was very turned on by it. That was almost as scary as the rest of the episode. The whole joy of the buzz.

Thats why I am so sure that he will get an Emmy. From terror to joy, to terror again. That was some damn good acting. IMHO :)

3. Lisa as the Petunia throwing onions at Nate was funny as hell!
So was "I have lots of sex and it's really gay!" from Keith.

Could have done without cotemplating the used condom scene however.

4. Did we really need to see a condom filled with semen
I know I don't! When we're done just go to the bathroom and flush the damn thing down the toilet

7. that was a good episode
Edited on Mon Aug-02-04 03:23 PM by No2W2004
Keith not getting the joke was funny. Wonder if it really was a pass or not? and the "I'm gay, I have a boyfriend, I have gay sex and it's really gay" was great.

Rico...man. dumb...dumb....dumb

The scene with David after the bar, and then his breakdown was really disturbing.

Lisa the onion throwing petunia was probably her finest moment in the series in my opinion.

and Claire.......sigh. wonder if will just be "experimenting"

EDIT: oh, yeah, the condom....YUK!

10. Getting too depressing, and pace is getting too slow.
It seems like they're turning this into "Carnival," with the dreadfully slow pace.

Watching one train wreck after another is awful.

Didn't anybody tell David to never pick up strangers?

Didn't anybody tell Freddy not to go home with strippers?

Didn't Mom ever think to wonder why her new hubby went through so many wives before she got married?

Can't anybody tell Nate, that a good deal of the pain he's feeling over losing Lisa is the guilt he feels because he never gave that marriage more than 50%?

And Claire, hah! Can't we just read the Ciff's Notes on one-dimensional, paint-by-numbers, stereotyped art school types.

Watching this show is like watching your best friend get drunk, get into a car and kill somebody.

People used to make choices on this show, that every once in a while made them better people. Now I wonder, for what?
