under something

Currently coursing through Season Three of Six Feet Under on DVD, and it's proving to be quite enjoyable, with each episode juggling the usual, let's see, 5 or 6 major storylines at any given time. It would be almost interesting (if one had the time) to sketch out how an episode is constructed, as it hardly seems linear in terms of doling out even time and even intervals for each of the storylines throughout each episode.

The interactions between Nate and Brenda at this point in the series are so coldly distant, yet something really intense seems to be still burning away there.

This is why I really appreciate the television medium in some ways-the ability for serious, drawn-out character development and complex structure that just can't be achieved in most feature films. James has his own beefs on some films as well.

Live show wise, will this be the show of the year tomorrow?
