"Six Feet Under" |
HOLLYWOOD - ***Spoiler Alert***Fans of hit show Six Feet Under are in shock, after watching Peter Krause's
character, Nate Fisher, die in an episode which aired July 31.
Reluctant mortuary owner Nate passed away after suffering a brain hemorrhage--just moments after doctors had offered reassurances he would survive.
Initially in a coma, Nate had recovered enough to be able to tell his
pregnant wife, Brenda--played by Rachel Griffiths--that he had decided to
leave their troubled marriage.
Later, while his brother David, portrayed by Michael C. Hall, was visiting
Nate in hospital, both fall asleep and shared a dream that they were on a
surfing trip with their late dad. David awakened to find Nate dead.
The same brain condition that led to Nate's death, identified in the series
as an arteriovenous malformation, had been diagnosed once before in a past
episode and treated with surgery.
There are currently three episodes left of the show's fifth and final season.
