Sorry for your loss Clint. Six Feet Under was one of my favorite shows, second only the Sopranos as far as Sunday night shows on HBO. It certainly has one of the best closing scenes I have ever seen. I can remember watching it when it aired, crying, how I felt watching it. I was nearly done with graduate school and getting ready to start my own life. It really spoke to me and i cried again rewatching it.
Thank you, Caleb. It’s amazing how many people I know have vivid memories of the series finale…definitely reminds me of a time and place I enjoy revisiting regularly. Cheers to you!
So sorry to hear of your loss, Clint. And also so glad for you that in the loss was also a beautiful reconnection. That 6FU scene....😭😭😭. The Verve wasn't blowing smoke about it being a bittersweet symphony, this life. ❤️🩹 Thanks for sharing with us here.
Thank you, Keith. It’s been an interesting week and I’m glad I’m not the only one to find the SFU scene therapeutic. It’s my “I need to cry but can’t” remedy, bookmarked and at the ready for whenever I need it. Hope you’re doing well and don’t need to revisit it very often. But tears—in my book anyway—help the flowers and plants inside our souls grow big, beautiful, and strong.
I hate when I'm suffering from cry-constipation (and it happens fairly often), because you're absolutely right...that kind of drought impedes the growth of soul gardens. Here's to lots of gentle rains, whether courtesy of the Fishers or not. 🌦️🌈
Thanks Clint! The show was one of my favourites and I remember the final scene having quite an impact on me. I understand how watching it again can be cathartic and gives one a sense of oneself and what's important in this life and the treasured memories we revisit time and time again!!!
(Silly me, I remember being sad when Claire's first boyfriend, played by Eric Balfour left the show, as I found him so Hot)
Take care, Keep well and Stay the course! My Sincere Condolences,
Gone but not lost. Just in different rooms from you. Maybe you cannot see but you might picture. Perhaps not hear, hold or anything but you can remember, feel the warmth, share the love. The connection is firm and strong. There is no separation.
So true, Dr. Ray. I suspect Debra’s in the other room, making magic of other’s ethereal hair. She was an amazing hairstylist who loved baldies like me too. Whatta woman!
Thank you for the reminder of our respective places in the eternal spectrum.
Are you still in the UK or back in Thailand? Either way, wishing you much love and light. Cheers!
I arrived home late on Tuesday, not entirely healed but okay. I still havem't unpacked but I have put clothes through the washing machine. I will have lunch with my Argentinian friend today(I was her English teacher when she with her husband came to Thailand (he is the manager of a leather importing company). We have been friends for 22 years. Thanks for the good wishes, which I send back to you.
Oh…that was a rough one. But was a turning point for David’s character…and so well done. The season with Nate searching for Lisa was the one I didn’t enjoy, but also knew was part of the arc. I truly believe they conceived the show as five seasons and I was on board for it all. Though I was a late adopter, coming during season 2. :-p
Oh Clint, sometimes you hit me at the pit of my soul and today was one of those times. Not only did your wonderful description of your talks with old friends seem so special, so meaningful and then you let me watch those final moments of what was a marvelous movie. I cried as I watched life progress as she drove down the highway. Imagine for a moment, what I, at two months short of being 83, must have seen and felt as the film progressed. Thank you, for doing what you do so very well.
Oh, dear Walt. Thank you for your kindness and perspective. I sense Debrat would LOVE you. Many years from now, I hope we can all be reunited and share some laughs. Life is for living, at any of every age. Cheers!
Not that this is a particularly hot take, but that final scene of Six Feet Under is the most gutting thing that’s ever happened on a TV show. I see why this moment reflecting on a late friend made you think of it. You’ve honored her well.
Thank you, dear Doug….it’s been an emotional couple of days, but I’m doing well and feeling grateful for the time I had with Debra and our other friends way back when. Cheers!
Lee, you can never tell me enough about your experiences and your sacrifices in caring and loving those guys…may they live on in our memories and the embers of their collective candles. I honor and remember those I knew as much as possible…I’m so grateful you do too.

In the immortal words of Degrassi, “whatever it takes.” Or at least that’s what a younger friend of mine likes to say. So I stole it. :-p

Glad you made it home safely and are feeling well enough to meet up with a dear friend. Continue to heal, dear one. And keep shining your light!
Thanks Clint, for reminding me that Six Feet Under was the best US television series ever made.

It was indeed. Even the season (four?) that drove me completely batty. :-p
There was an episode called "That's My Dog" that turned some against the show, but I watched until the end.
