Six Feet Under went out with a good one. I felt a little iffy about this final season, but the last three or four episodes were stunning. Ever since (major spoiler) that major character died. It’s almost like the character stifled everybody else in the series. I almost applauded when they finally kicked the bucket. Narm. Heee. (end of spoiler)
I haven’t got the exact quote here, but Brenda said something in, I think, the penultimate episode that sounded completely new to me (as in an ‘original’ observation) yet so totally recognisable.
It’s when she tells her still unbelievably creepy brother Billy (Spoiler)(And, CHRIST, Brenda, don’t touch his unbelievably creepy penis. Not even in dreams, ok?)(end of spoiler) that she always thought that as she grew older there’d be more people, but that’s not how it works.
How true is that.
