Let me say right up front that somehow Alan Ball, the creator/writer found a way to push the envelope so far that we were all left speechless. And breathless.

Globe and Mail
Six Feet Under is back for another season of harsh life lessons and deliciously dark humour. It has been far too long.

Immensely smart and elegiac. It is a fitting conclusion to what has been a magnificent fifth season for the drama.
