I watched the last ep last night.  It really did change my view of the whole show, which I wasn't expecting.  I want to think about it before I pass final judgment.

That ending makes me sob.

I liked that show OK. I'm kind of like Nate, all self-absorbed, compromised, 40ish. And I run like him, too.

Sure hope I don't die.

This thread has convinced me that I don't have the attention span to delve into this show right now.  Deleted from my Q.

Don't get me wrong:  the show drove me crazy and I found just about every character annoying.  The first season I liked, but everything went steadily downhill from there.  Nevertheless, the last episode made me weep.  But then I'm a softie that way, so it's not much of an accomplishment, really.  I cried at the end of Chopped the other day.

i'm watching kitchen confidential instead. i never gave it a chance when it was on tv and now i'm friends with one of the cast so that bias should carry me a long way.

I hated the weird puritanism of this show. If a character was ever having an emotional crisis, they immediately went on some sort of sex rampage. Even the mom.

That was the point. The whole family was full of bottled-up emotional basket cases living in a funeral home.

I haven't  seen that show since the season when what's-his-nuts came back from the dead. I lost interest. Should I go back and watch it all again?

I guess you could call them...CASKET cases? Am I right?

I'm in the process of getting one of my friends to watch this, but before that I got him to watch The Wire so I'm preparing myself for the inevitable disappointment. Plus he's far less sentimental than I, so I'm not sure the finale will put it over the top for him like it did for me.

That actor from SFU really shines as "Dexter", though.

Huh.  He's one of several reasons I gave up watching Dexter.  I liked him much better on SFU
