(Season 5, Episodes 4-6) Man, for two people who “love” each other, Nate and Brenda sure like to hurt each other… a lot. This block of Six Feet Under episodes really saw them return to their season one and two form of emotionally kicking the crap out of each other. I went into their renewed […]
(Season 2, Episodes 19-22) Good lord, I’m not sure if more could have happened in two episodes than we got in these final two installments of season two. What a completely satisfying ending that absolutely makes me beyond anxious to get on with season three and see what comes next. We got major developments for […]
(Season One, Episodes 15 & 16) It would be disingenuous of me to say that “All good things come to an end,” because I just haven’t’ been able to jump on board the bandwagon that everyone else has. As many people have advised me, the show definitely grew on me as time wore on, but […]

And, there was a definite sense of character and team dynamic that, up until now, felt rather weak. I have my fingers crossed that this fun […]
(Season 2, Episodes 5-8) Thanks for all the tips explaining Scully’s near absence this season after last week’s column. Now that I know she was pregnant, I can’t help but notice all the chest-up angles and seated shots she’s been getting. It was clever of the writers to ultimately work her pregnancy into the story […]
