About Six Feet Under

When death is your business, what is your life? For the Fisher family, the world outside of their family-owned funeral home continues to be at least as challenging as—and far less predictable than—the one inside.

Six Feet Under is a drama series that ran on HBO. Its themes are business, family drama, depressing, and anxious.

Its 5 seasons and 63 episodes were broadcast from June 2001 to August 2005. Seasons run to about 13 episodes.

Peter Krause leads the cast as Nate Fisher, Michael C. Hall as David Fisher, Frances Conroy as Ruth Fisher, and Lauren Ambrose as Claire Fisher. Produced by HBO.

In the United States it streams on HBO Max and HBO Max Amazon Channel. Shameless, Malcolm in the Middle, and The Sopranos make useful companions to Six Feet Under, all filed under dark comedy, dysfunctional family, and family. TMDB voters put it at 8.1 out of 10 across 1,192 votes and it carries a TV-MA rating.
