  • PaleyFest LA 2021 sponsored by Citi and Verizon. Stars and creatives of HBO's Six Feet Under (Alan Ball, Robert Greenblatt, David Janollari, Alan Poul, Peter Krause, Michael C. Hall, Lauren Ambrose, Frances Conroy, Freddy Rodriguez, and Rachel Griffiths) gather with moderator Lynette Rice at PaleyFest LA 2021 to celebrate their show and its twentieth anniversary. Topics include: how Ball's time as a youth in funeral homes influenced the pilot script; Ball's secret for creating indelible characters; the on-set practical jokes involving "cadavers"; how the ongoing relationship between Michael C. Hall's David and Mathew St. Patrick's Keith proved groundbreaking; Ball's determination to write female characters that weren't defined by the men in their lives; the stereotype-free depiction of Latinx leads Freddy Rodriguez's Rico and Justina Machado's Vanessa; how Ball planned the memorable series finale; and the show's effectiveness twenty years later.

    What Rachel mentioned at 24:30 about guest actors is so true!! The list I made includes Rainn Wilson, Chris Pine, Jenna Fischer, Josh Radnor, Justin Theroux, Catherine O'Hara, Sandra Oh, Adam Scott, Ben Foster, Illeana Douglas, Zachary Quinto, Jayma Mays and I know I'm missing many others......(yes, I created this list on my own, and yes, I'm a total SFU geek!!)

For example, "that's the girl that came in for a funeral in Six Feet Under" for the one women in White Chicks 😂 It's kinda a joke for me to mess with my husband now because he won't watch it! But it's always accurate.

      Angles of America is a great show, also made by HBO and music composer Thomas Newman. It’s very entertaining show and it has the same concept as six feet under ( life changes and everyone will eventually die).
      I do however still prefer six feet under cause it’s more of family drama while angels of America is more about the struggle of being gay in 80s-90s

    Saw the series when first out and it destroyed me then. (In a very good way). Just re-watching the series now in March 2022 and the familial bonds, humanity and moments of tenderness between characters feel particularly poignant and comforting in these strange, strange times we live in. My partner is seeing it for the first time, and it gives me such pleasure watching her devour the show wide-eyed, and go with the rollercoaster of each storyline and character arc. During the pandemic, it’s become possible to become overwhelmed with high quality streamed dramas, but SFU ALWAYS stands out as the very best - even 20 years on. And for me - the beauty of SFU has always been that while on the surface it deals with death, all of life’s experiences that happens before it - the good and the bad - are so, so vital and vibrant in their imperfections; and all human failures and frailty are just part of who we are. And that that’s ok because it all shapes us and brings us home to one another. For sure, as Frances Conroy says here, people create new bonds and find new friends because of the universality they find on SFU. Ultimately - this show was made with love and that shines through, and is the feeling I am always left with. ❤️

I'm 63 and we're both happily amicably divorced now but both of us had to deal with the deaths of our Parents in the time vicinity of this show. We had both just moved to Europe and I was feeling the first spark of myself as a success making things happen and experiencing creative success. And Susan loved traveling in Europe so much and we were still a reasonably happy couple. Yeah just stumbled across this show on Netflix and it brought back such a blast of memories and feelings. It was high art that somehow insinuated itself into one's life.

      And being with someone who loves you unconditionally and allows u to work thru your grief no matter how long it is.

    The surreal "day dreams", the dead characters ranging from terrifying to tragic to hilarious - each one bringing their own lesson, the perfect distribution of real estate for the characters - each ep focusing on each of the family members the perfect amount, and ultimately the INSANE amount of drama the family members all went through. Those things, along with the acting, the music, the cinematography - really made this show memorable for me.

    I had an experience about 5 years ago. my mom was in the hospital suffering from multiple pelvic fractures. She hadn't fallen, it was due to her osteoporosis. But, at that time, she seemed to have given up. I was very stressed out...and out of the corner of my eye, it seemed as if I saw the ghostly images of my dad & my oldest brother. I felt certain that Mom was slipping away. Turns out, she lasted 3 more years....and I sadly & always will regret that I wasn't there) when she finally slipped away, as Ruth Fisher did.....but without any of her 4 surviving children present. It's been more than 8 months now...and I have come to grips that, just like both of my grandmothers, they chose to leave alone. I'm almost 59....her "baby" and as much as I mourn her passing, I've reached that level of acceptance....because, at 91, she was ready to go. (not unlike Ruth Fisher)
