Buy this series now. I cant say enough good things about this series. This comes a close second to Band of Brothers. Congrats HBO on one hell of a series.
5-star series in a 4-star presentation
I assume you have already come to terms (and made your peace) with the fact that SIX FEET UNDER is by and far one of the best-written television shows in history. If you haven't, all you need to do is watch an episode.
Let's talk about the Gift Set Box instead.
The box holds all 5 seasons: 25 discs (including 2 audio soundtracks) as well as a beautifully-executed hardbound 'memorium' that describes and reflects upon the principal characters (DO NOT READ THE BOOKLET IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE COMPLETE SERIES).
The box itself is large enough to hold the original seasons' in the original interior "fold-out" trays. The box itself is decorated on each side to look like fresh, healthy soil, complete with grass roots at the top.
The actual TOP of the box has fine, green astro-turf-like material attached to it, complete with a resin "headstone" in the center of the top panel that reads SIX FEET UNDER.
In order to get into the box, you open it from the side, upwards. This reveals the interior panel of the box and inside you are treated to what it would look like if you were laying in a coffin. The cast looks down at you respectfully, and each season slides out in its' own wallet.
All in all, an excellent presentation that is only slightly awkward due to the way you need to pull the side "flap" of the box up in order to get into it. I also have noticed quite a bit of the green "grass" comes loose around the edges of the set. These are minor quibbles. The entire case sits at the same height and width as other standard "complete season" box-sets, so placing it into your collection poses no problems. However, given the quality and presentation of this beautiful set, I would recommend finding a flat surface for showcasing the complete series instead of losing it on your DVD wall.
Best show I've ever seen!!
I absolutely love this show. I fell in love with it from the first quirky episode with those silly comercials. As it went along it got better and better. It got you so engaged and involved. I felt like I knew these people and by the end of the final season I was sobbing like a baby and couldn't sleep all night because it stuck with me. I just couldn't stop thinking about it. That is definitly the markings of a great show. I hope my opinion helps others want to watch it because it is worth every penny you pay. By the way I got mine on ebay for $99. Happy Viewing!
