Six Feet Under: Season 1

This darkly comical HBO television series follows the members of a dynamic but dysfunctional Los Angeles-based family that operates a funeral home. It has an ironically grim but intriguing premise: Each episode is based on the death and extenuating circumstances of the family's current client. Captivating, original and utterly engaging, this Emmy Award-winning series is the brainchild of American Beauty screenwriter Alan Ball.

I started out liking this series a lot, but...I have nothing against gay people but I would rather not see two gay guys kissing or in bed together. Nor do I like the gay bar scenes. The first two discs had a limited amount of this (maybe one scene per episode) so it didn't bother me much, and I could fast forward through it easy enough. However by the third disc it started getting excessive. By the last episode on the third disc I think there were three of those scenes. Otherwise it's a good series if you don't mind the gay stuff. I haven't bothered renting the fourth disc.
