I agree on what you said about Six Feet Under, though I think Twin Peaks is generally the best TV series ever made. I had to give up Six Feet Under during season 3 because I just couldn't bare seeing all these characters I loved so much put through the wringer.

Yes I'm fully with you on Twin Peaks - and without that there would have been no Buffy, no X-Files etc. Lynch is a god. I feel like I have been waiting for about a hundred years for them to release season 2 on DVD. I hope it finally happens soon because I've never seen it...

It has been released!! No need to wait anylonger; head for your nearest HMV. :-)

Oh my God. I'm so excited; I just ordered a region-1 set from CD Wow for £30 - bargain! AWESOMES

My brother warned me of SFU "It will only break your heart" and my friend cpratt advised me to get out when I heard the words "vegan chef". I did, but poor monshu kept watching, hoping for a return to form, until finally surrendering about the same point as you did. The first season, however, is still some of the most brilliant television I've ever seen, though I still don't understand: Why couldn't they offer Rico a partnership? The brothers never really over an explanation besides, "We can't".

[wwidsith]

Hehe, yeah it peaked early. But what a peak..

Maybe they just didn't trust Rico? Or wanted to keep it in the business? I don't think the series went necessarily bad, but just incredibly uncomfortable to watch.

monshu and I felt like they basically chucked out everything we liked about the characters. Much as I like Lili Taylor, Lisa couldn't hold a candle to Griffiths' Brenda and Nate became--in monshu's words--"neutered" after his marriage to her.
