Six Feet Under
First, a little background.
Emily and I have been watching Six Feet Under together for as long as we've been dating (almost 20 months now). This last season however, we've been having her friend Margaret over to watch with us. (She's a poor grad student who doesn't have cable.) Anyway, what's pretty cool about this is that she kind of looks like Claire. At some point I even started bitching at her during some episode when Claire was doing something stupid.
For the sake of convenience we record every episode on TiVo (well, a very poor imitation...) and watch it later. Usually we'll cook dinner, or at least make some bruchetta, before watching the show. Sometimes when someone is busy we skip a week and then end up watching two episode in what night.
That's what we did tonight and it was the last two episodes of the final season.
Frankly, it was the best television I've ever seen.
Better than the any episode of M*A*S*H. Better even than that episode of West Wing where Will Bailey makes it rain.
Update: Ryan prefers the West Wing episode where President Bartlet names two nominees to the Supreme Court. That was also a good episode, but still pales in comparison to the Six Feet Under finale.
Update: The superb song that was played at the end is 'Breath Me' by Sia. You can download it here.
