Finally finished Six Feet Under. Seasons 3 and 4 were such a slog but season 5 was a really good piece of HBO TV. Curiously enough I remembered last episode as an emotional high point that made me cry but it landed flat time (that is I cried just a little bit). Maybe that’s because it was centred around the youngest of the main characters while the rest of the season was about middle aged people trying to figure out their lives while being expected to have their shit together. I can relate to this being kind of hard.

Ludwig is a joy but I feel season 2 should have increased the stakes rather than becoming cozy detective drama. Still very enjoyable but I feel catfished.
