| SIX FEET UNDER KJ1 BEGINS DISCUSSION CLUB FOR FANS OF HBO HIT SERIES Club HaNgOvEr has been chosen by King James as the venue for his discussion club devoted to the third season of Alan Ball's macabre hit series, Six Feet Under. SFU, as fans refer to it, takes a raw and uncensored look at the lives of the widow and children of Nathaniel Fisher, a funeral director. After Nathaniel's ironic death (he's killed in his own hearse by an oncoming bus) in the very first episode of the series, the dysfunctional Fishers are forced to cope with running the family business as they each attend to their own very dramatic personal lives. The show is at once clever, dramatic, eerie, emotional, compelling, unpredictable and often hysterically funny. Alan Ball's creativity comes alive, as do many of the corpses who interact with the Fisher family to offer clarity to life's struggles. The show airs each Sunday night at 9:00pm Eastern Standard Time on HBO. Enter Club |
