We tried to watch all the films that were nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars. Now that he is gone, I don't watch movies at home at all. Just makes his side of the bed look like a giant black hole. <br /><br />BUT, now I think I want to rent "Six Feet Under." You should be in PR. You lured me through the back door. Very cool. <br /><br />I'm headed over to Netflix right now.<br /><br />Thanks, Pal,<br /><br />.................cjcj Schlottmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18217936774632262633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-352920971254096499.post-68898271376421463032011-04-15T18:55:28.497-07:002011-04-15T18:55:28.497-07:00That was one of the all time best series either. ...That was one of the all time best series either. I watched it over five years. This was BN (before Netflix). Now I highly recommend Damages, starting with season one. <br /><br />The Hangover...

Our movie watching suffers until we hit a lull in new shows. :) Never saw Six Feet Under, but I remember the critics loved it.

I remember giving up on Six Feet Under when a particularly obnoxious woman showed up. Was she a body worker? I can't remember, but I thought No, I'm not open to her and the havoc she's going to cause. It might have been a time in my life when more than enough havoc was happening and I didn't want to add another drop. (Did you know havoc comes in drops?). But that's quite a rave you've given, Katie. I might have to go back and try again. Thanks for all the passion you bring to things. I have an image of you in my mind with a sort of glow all around you.Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05809623586640912620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-352920971254096499.post-22722935516321052862011-04-14T08:49:27.286-07:002011-04-14T08:49:27.286-07:00I do empathise with not wanting a book to end.I so...I do empathise with not wanting a book to end.I sometimes put a book aside to delay that final page being turned but my biggest fear (and those close to me will bear me out on this)is for someone to start speaking to me urgently just as I reach the final paragraph. It's a bit like someone stopping you mid-yawn come to think of it. Normally I don't hear anything when I'm reading - doorbell, music, children, husband, earth quake ... but at the end of a book - I am so afraid of being interrupted I hear a pin drop!<br />Not sure I could wade through all those episodes of Six Feet Under but I understand the concept!I also love the way you hate being told what to do, even by yourself. I think I am the same way LOL! :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-352920971254096499.post-44731381116418424842011-04-13T14:42:17.397-07:002011-04-13T14:42:17.397-07:00I liked "Dead Like Me," which is certain...I liked "Dead Like Me," which is certainly quirky, but I also remember "Six Feet Under."<br /><br />I had a friend who used to say (when he got almost to the end of a book that he loved) that he would throw the book into a corner...He was so sad that it was about to end, and he couldn't bear the thought of it being "no more" so he would try and postpone the end by tossing it aside.<br /><br />I too mourn when a great book ends. And I LOVE when a book makes me cry...Sioux Roslawskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17924021828536277618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-352920971254096499.post-4366516080733472012011-04-13T14:20:34.408-07:002011-04-13T14:20:34.408-07:00We've resisted Netflix so far, but this makes ...We've resisted Netflix so far, but this makes me want to sign up right away.
