One marriage has come to a tragic end, another is beginning, and a third is on the rocks. At Fisher & Diaz, formerly known as Fisher & Sons, lives are in flux, as Nate, David, Ruth, Claire and Rico struggle to find their way.
Welcome to the sweetly twisted world of HBO’s highly acclaimed original series Six Feet Under, where at Fisher & Diaz Funeral Home, tending to dead bodies is all in a day’s work.
The award-winning show was created by Alan Ball, the Oscar-winning writer of American Beauty. Using dramatic irony and dark, situational humor, the show approaches the subject of death through the eyes of the Fisher family, who own and operate a funeral home in Los Angeles.
With a bevy of Emmys as well as Golden Globes, including a win for Frances Conroy for best actress in a television series, under its belt, Six Feet Under heads into its fourth season Sunday, June 13.
