‘Under’-Performing

Sheila’s as disappointed as I am by this season of “Six Feet Under.” I personally thought Sunday’s episode was much better than the previous one, but it’s still not the same show it used to be.

But we both plan to keep watching…

Oh and Steve - just thought of another thing:

To my mind, even the deaths which start each show now have a gimmicky feel to them. They seem to be commenting on the device - rather than catapulting us into the world of mortality (the way I feel the deaths used to.)

Like: the Christian woman seeing the blow-up dolls? The girl cracking her neck falling off the bed? I don't know. They didn't have the same "wow. There by the grace of God go I" feel that the other seasons had.
