"Weeds" delivers a gem

Jul 15, 2010 16:41

In a debate about whether to euthanize an elderly relative who recently came out of a coma-like stupor just long enough to say "Kill me" in Yiddish:

Older son: Yeah, sure. Death is no big deal, because life is just, "Blah, blah blah."

Fuckup uncle:Life is just blah blah blah. You hope for blah and sometimes you find it. But mostly it’s blah. And waiting for blah. And hoping you were right about the blahs you made. And then just when you think you’ve got the whole blah-damn thing figured out, and surrounded by the ones you blah, death shows up. And blah. Blah. Blah."

It loses something without Justin Kirk's delivery, but that may have been one of my favorite TV speeches ever made.
