Wow... what a great show. I've watched season one and I'm completely addicted. Does anyone own the DVDs to season two and would be willing to let me borrow them? |

I might have them on tape.......I have taped almost every episode. I know I have the last 2 seasons completely recorded. I'll search through my videos and see what's here, and will let you know. |

bump... anyone else? I'm also interested in seasons 3, 4, and 5. The DVDs are expensive to purchase (about $75 per season). Thanks! |

Hi John Notehead and I have season 3 and 4, but not 2....let us know when you are ready! Season 5 isn't out yet, but it's on our netflix queue.... we also discovered the show on DVD...and we never quite caught up to it while it was on the air. I am so excited for season 5, but also sad - because then it's over <sniff>

Pippmesiter.... I watched all the seasons of Six Feet on TV and loved it almost as much as the Sopranos. And yes, it ends, but the final episode is wild, bizarre, fascinating, weird, and ultimately very satisfying. |

soulful korben season 5 comes out sometime in March...I can't wait!! It will have to compete with Sopranos... I know a little bit about the last episode, because it was very very difficult to avoid finding out if you read a newspaper or surfed the web at the time. I managed to avoid every article for about 2 weeks and then some stupid blurb in NY Magazine ruined it for me. I almost cancelled my subscription

It's well worth rediscovering. I had watched it since it first started and have found it to be one of the best shows ever, right up there with The Sopranos. And everything Korben Dallas said about the final episode is absolutely true. |

We're in the middle of season 2. We're renting it from netflix. I don't understand people who don't have netflix. OK, that's an exaggeration, but not by much. Yeah, this is good stuff. Really good stuff. Does HBO ever do something that isn't good? I don't get HBO. I just rent their DVD's. I don't mind being a few years behind.

I've watched the last 10 minutes of the final episode over and over (kept it on TiVo) - it's one of the most inspiring (and satisfying) 10 minutes I've ever seen on television or film. I won't spoil anything, but I can't imagine anyone could capture the beauty and finesse of the final episode with written words. You have to see it and hear it. Everytime I watch it I cry, but it doesn't make me sad - you know?

I'd like to see that final 6/FU episode again - in slow motion - or with a remote to stop it in places and take in what I'm seeing. It was brilliant. |

WOW I really can't wait!!! Korben - I have heard lots of good things about Weeds, also a Showtime original series....waiting for that to come out on DVD Tom - I never saw last season's HBO series with Lisa Kudrow. (can't even remember the name) I think it might be said that show wasn't very good... Never saw carnivale either. Sopranos, SITC, Deadwood and six feet Under are all pretty amazing. |

I really liked the Lisa Kudrow show, it wasn't about huge laughs, but it was a good build-up to all the big and little vanities that are cringe-worthy whatever your position in the fame-o-meter. I was disappointed it was cancelled, it was a subtle show that needed more time. "Entourage" is great too, also "Curb" - HBO is worth the extra $30 a month, cheaper than 4 movies and oftentimes better. |

Pippi, I have seen Weeds a number of times (elsewhere, as I don't have Showtime) and it is also a great show. Very funny, with just the right amount of poignancy. Mary-Louise Parker just rocks. I've been keeping an eye out for the DVDs also. The Lisa Kudrow series, I thought, stunk. And I have Six Feet Under, seasons 4 & 5, readily accessible on videocassette (sorry, no Tivo yet). |

I've watched discs 1 and 2 of Season 2. Blockbuster doesn't have the other discs, and I'm too darn cheap to buy them. Thanks. |

composerjohn, Netflix! They have everything. If you are frugal, you can get their bargain basement plan. I don't know the details, but it's cheap enough.

OK, I have downloaded all 10 episodes. Is there any way to burn them onto a DVD? Composerjohn - still looking to see if I have season 2. As Mrs. Composerjohn can tell you, I am very unorganized! |

One way to find out, isn't there? Theoretically you can, but Apple has all their proprietary sh*t going on, it may not let you. |

Well, I have been clicking around on it, but all I can get on the menu is "copy", so I suppose I would have to get a DVD in there. It is not as straightforward as burning a CD, where there is that little "Burn CD" icon. I thought I was on to something good. Hmph. |

ess, try putting a blank dvd in the drive, and when the window pops up, dragging the weeds file onto the dvd's window. Try finding the weeds file in the itunes folder, rather than trying to drag it directly from itunes. |
