2nd January 2024 - 22nd April 2024

I just watched the last two episodes together last night and it just made me a giant weepy mess and the end made me feel so much that I didn’t even know was possible to feel for an end of a series. The end, oh my god! I don’t think I’ll ever witness a series finale that poetic, beautiful, poignant, sad and meaningful all at the same time. Just watched it with tears streaming down my face while I was holding my headphones with both hands and watching it with my jaw dropped literally. I have watched so many extraordinary works of television but I don’t think I’ll ever watch a series finale as great as Six Feet Under. And as I’ve come to learn that ‘Everyone’s Waiting’ is the single greatest ending to a series in television history, I couldn’t agree more.

Right now I’m just in a bubble of melancholy and sadness sort of reeling from witnessing and accepting the end of one the greatest television series ever made. Turned 27 this year and have had this show on my list for almost at least a decade maybe. Was introduced to it when I watched a steamy 20 second scene between David and Keith somewhere on YouTube and searched it, read a little about it as to not spoil it for myself and have been on the top of my watchlist ever since. Finally got around to watching it and just fell instantly in love with all the characters and the lives of the Fisher family.

And I can’t help but feel that this show has completely changed me and had just made me appreciate life in all its beautiful fragility. It has made stop wasting what precious time we have left and to go out and live life and seize it while I still can. I just am so, so deeply thankful to Alan Ball, Michael C. Hall, Frances Conroy, Peter Krause, Lauren Ambrose, Mathew St. Patrick, Rachel Griffiths, Freddy Rodriguez, the amazing writers and crew who made this incredible work of art.

Six Feet Under has left an indelible mark in me and will forever be a part of me. From now on, listening to Breathe Me by Sia will be always be in tribute to this exceptionally extraordinary series.
