If last season tended toward painful self-evaluation -- it made for great drama but a head full of bleakness -- Season 3 hints not so much at a more clearly defined, lighter tone but perhaps more living life out loud than living it in the head.
So daring, richly multi-dimensional and culturally provocative that it's almost anti-television. [3 June 2001, p.2F]

nFeet Under esa serie te cambia la vida junto con Los Soprano es la serie más real y humana en cuanto emociones, creo que posiblemente son las que tiene más carga emocional y dramática, muestran la cotidianidad del ser humano, cada personaje en esa serie presenta un desarrollo psicológico y existencial, cada uno de los personajes se desarrollan de una forma que es como ver el mundo de cada personaje, son series interpretativas y superlativas. Mínimo lloraras con algún capítulo de algunas de estas dos series. Por cierto Six Feet under tiene el mejor final de la historia de la televisión según la crítica. Por último Six Feet Under trata sobre una familia dueña de una casa funeraria,dónde la día día la familia Fisher tiene que lidiar con diferentes muertes y como esto va afectando a la familia, creo que es una serie que te mostrará que la vida se debe disfrutar al máximo sin importar que, es una serie con mucha ironía humor negro y existencialista, es una serie bastante oscura, en ocasiones puede llegar a ser fuerte para la gente con tendencias a la depresión y demás. Por último voy a decir amigos que está en HBO max, fue de las que empezó la era dorada de la televisión en los 2000 que lo conformaban series como The Wire o Los Soprano, de hecho de ahí salió la gran frase “ no es cine es HBO ”

The dialogue is smart, and the comedy is edgy, and from the six already previewed out of this 13-episode run, the characters may drive you crazy with their constant navel-gazing, but they do grow on you. [3 June 2001, p.2]
A surreal, visually striking, insightful comedy-drama about the American way of death and a troubled middle-class family that deals with mortality every day. [3 June 2001, p.6E]
Tender and sometimes humorously bent. Yes, some very nice moments in initial installments of its 13-episode commitment from HBO, but nothing shooting you to the moon. [1 June 2001, p.C1]
Frankly, the first episode of "Six" is not impressive. Discomfiting, certainly, and with sparks of promise, but not exactly compelling. But, somewhat surprisingly, after watching two and three and four more episodes, the show grows on you...Six Feet Under is going to be an acquired taste that some will never acquire.[1 June 2001, p.C08]
Six Feet Under is as artificial as the AstroTurf funeral directors place around a grave site. [3 June 2001, p.91]
esta y los soprano son las series mas humanas y perfectas que he visto No sabría como expresar lo que siento...
Ayer me terminé la serie completa, aún estoy conmocionado. Nunca habrá nada parecido en la pequeña pantada. Six Feet Under lo supera todo, va más allá de ser una serie, es puro arte, es la muerte, pero sobretodo es la vida, es perfecta.
Esta irrepetible familia ha cambiado mi forma de ver las cosas. Me ha roto el corazón y me ha hecho llorar de alegría. No sé que más decir, todo me suena tan cursi, simplemente se la recomiendo a la humanidad, aunque suene pretencioso.
Gracias a todo el equipo de la serie que no se ve, que ha conseguido un apartado técnico maravilloso, y al que sí, los actores, que han demostrado que puede haber interpretaciones sublimes fuera de una sala de cine, y a Alan Ball por dar a luz la mejor serie que habrá jamás

The romantic relationships in this show are so ridiculous that I can't take the show seriously like it wants me to. The central cast of characters are abused so badly in relationships that it makes no sense that they wouldn't recognize it, let alone do anything about it. It's actually kind of silly. Why is Nate in love with Brenda? She's written to be the worst person imaginable. It makes as much sense as him pouring **** of bleach.

Not as good as people say it is; the characters were decent but nothing compared to other HBO shows like The Wire and The Sopranos. The message was good, but overall I wouldn't recommend it to most. Also, the ending is one of the most overrated endings of all time.
