yeah it's funny, and to be fair claire isn't half as bad as some of her friends, like that guy russell (i think that's his name, the nutty one she went out with)

I'm finishing up a Diploma in photography at Sutton College in B'ham at the moment, in September i'm going to UCE, its not great, but i need to be able to stay at home whilst im studying.

I thought you were a lot older?, how old are you?

Russell was great whilst they were friends and when they were dating, but after they broke up he was a dorky loser. I always liked Billy.

billy was even more insane!

i'm 27, i didn't go to university at the normal age.

Billy was great!, apart from when he went mad and attacked Brenda (a couple times). Gabriel was the worst boyfriend she had.

Six Feet Under may be the very best SOAP OPERA ever made

I cannot watch more than 30 minutes. it is tedious harping on everything horrible that can happen and does happen in life, but it all happens to these 6 people that live and work in a funeral home.

boring as all fuck.

makes my girlfriend cry though. she loves it no end.

Bunbury · 03.27.2007, 01:53 PM

it was my favorite tv show...

Alan Ball is a genius and ended it perfectly.

anyone who didnt cry a little during that finale is dead inside.

Rob Instigator · 03.27.2007, 02:06 PM

I cried when Cheers ended.

the last episodes of buffy and angel, respectively, were quite emotional for me. especially angel i supposed because the show died an untimely death.

No.

I watched the first two seasons or so, but it all began to feel a bit like a day time soap opera only with much better acting. This is not to say it wasn't good; it was just easy (for me anyway) to get bored with it.

Now, Curb Your Enthusiasm on the other hand...

As for shows currently on air, I'm pretty much obsessed with the Office.

Spiritual Amnesia · 03.27.2007, 02:30 PM

yes, Six Feet Under is definitely the best show ever !!!

The English one is definitely better, but the American one is great. Steve Carell (as Michael Scott) and Rainn Wilson (as Dwight Schrute) make it very witty and funny.

It's very, very good, but no. The original is better. Jenna Fischer's cans almost give the American version the edge, but not quite.

!@#$%! · 03.27.2007, 02:41 PM

can they say "you're a cock" on american tv??

I watched season 1 of the British version. To be honest, I didn't like it as much. I think the situations in the British one were more awkward but not as funny. Maybe I just didn't like their delivery, or whatever. I like the American one more, but I think they are both great.

Depends on your preference. I'm a fan of British comedy, whereas British comedy and American comedy are quite different on television.

Is it just me or does the SIX FEET UNDER theme song sound exactly and I MEAN exactly like the music for SIM CITY the videogame?
