ur age has nothing to do with it, duderino. Chest and Pedro and even Ebeaman manage to explain themselves fine. u still hav only repeated the same thing, u didn't like, that much we know already. what i was asking is what didn't u like about it, i'm sorry if that's too much to ask.

out of all the teens who hav ever grown up on this board, i think u are the slowest to realise that it has nothing to do with ur age at all. chest grew up before our very eyes, into writing coherent reviews. "just" is "just" worthless.

There's a trailer for Season four on there that is just outstanding. It's a piece of work unto itself. Can't wait.

Anyone watch the first of season 4 yet? I thought it was pretty damn great. I don't really think its all kicked off yet though. It felt like the conclusion to an X-Files end of season cliffhanger, in a way. Really liked the direction in this episode.

Well, it was all to do with the coping of the Season 3 finale. I enjoyed it (especially since it helped me remember how season 3 ended) and thought the main point of it was for closure and a chance to start in a new direction (for the family). I thought they had written off Russel, but now there's still a chance he'll go psycho mid-season and hold Claire hostage in some artistic way.

And I forgot how much I liked Arthur.

Honestly.  What the hell was up with tonight's (July 18th) episode?  I think they finally, officially jumped the shark.

Raikus

Why? Because they centered on one major event? I thought it played a bit stressed, but overly feasible into the story. Giving David a life changing event seems to be in order. I'm glad they finally gave a season revolving instance--something that's been missing so far.

We'll see where they take it, then you can ask if they jumped the shark again.

After some sleep and some thought, that's exactly the conclusion I came to.  Don't get me wrong, I didn't hate last night's ep like I'm sure a lot of people did.  And I know that complaining about something coming out of left field on this show is like complaining about 24 being in real time.  But it was so brutally unlike anything that had ever happened on the show before that it's not out of order to be disturbed by it (not only because of what happened and who it happened to but because it's such a departure from the show, in my estimation anyway).

My girlfriend's initial reaction to the episode was identical to mine: "This is like that episode of The Sopranos where Dr. Melfi was raped."  The fact that Six Feet isn't The Sopranos (as the writers of Six Feet like to acknowledge isolated incidents like this in other episodes of the show) is a great comfort but it's all about where they take it.  I mean David smoked crack, for Christ's sake!  I was tearing my hair out during that!  Not so much the incident as the tone of the episode felt like it belonged in a different show.  Most unnerving hour of TV I've seen in a long time, if not ever.

One great thing a friend of mine pointed out was that the dog that David followed led him to grief while a dog led Nate to overcoming grief.

I get the sentiment, believe me. Last night's show wasn't one of my favorites by any means and I know what you mean about it being starkly out of contrast. I too had a beef with the *SPOILERS* post-crack smoking sequence but I've been taken down so many different roads with this show that I was very skeptical about and they've turned out great.

I could be way off on my assumption that the writers can pull this event back into the sequence of the show, but I've got faith. If nothing else it made me very anxious to see next week's episode (something any previous episodes this season failed to do).

That episode was so intense.

Interesting comments. Weren't both dogs labradors, too?

Also for x-philes - wasnt the opening location used in '3' the episode between Scully's abduction three-parter.
