S4 DVD News!

I'm not a fan of the cover ... it's a little creepy.

Quote:
There's a new pecking order at the Fisher & Diaz funeral home, but Nate, Ruth, David and Claire still try to make every day above ground a good one. Death and dysfunction are par for the course in The Complete Fourth Season of Six Feet Under.

HBO Home Video will release Six Feet Under: The Complete Fourth Season on August 23. This 5 disc set will contain all 12 episodes, and loads of bonus materials. The set will sport an Anamorphic Widescreen (1.78:1) transfer, with English Dolby Digital 5.1 and English, French and Spanish 2.0 audio tracks, with matching subtitles.

Here's a look at the extras for the set:
20 Minute Featurette "Cut by Cut: Editing Six Feet Under"
"Costas DVD Plus" - Bob Costas interviews the Six Feet Under cast
7 audio commentaries
Season 1-3 recap

The set will retail for $99.98, the same are previous seasons. Don't forget to pick up season 3 on May 10th.

Here's a small shot of the box:

The cover irks me.

-------

from HBO.com

Quote:
This June, the groundbreaking Six Feet Under heads into its fifth and final season. HBO.com caught up with Executive Producer Alan Poul as the production hit the halfway mark for an update on how--and where-- things are going.

HBO.COM: Do you feel more pressure than usual going into your last season?

ALAN POUL I wouldn't call it pressure. I would say that there's an awful lot of effort, a feeling that that we have to do it right. But we have a tremendous amount of support from HBO in terms of coming to our own conclusions about how it should end.

In a lot of other network situations, there might be other parties with a vested interest in creating room for a continuation or for a spin off or for some kind. And in this case we're just being told to figure out how it needs to come to a close and make it the best finish that we can.

HBO.COM: It's not Six Feet Under's style to go out in a gauzy finish; do you find yourself fighting off sentiment?

ALAN POUL Yeah. I mean, listen, we're all going to be very moved, and I think we want people who are watching to be moved. But on our show I don't think we've ever tried to move people through sentiment. I don't think overt appeals to sentimentality are part of our style book. So the ending will involve life and death and will involve darker turns for some people and lighter turns for others. The most important thing is we want to have a sense that every story has reached its appropriate conclusion.

HBO.COM: Do you feel good about the decision to conclude the series?

ALAN POUL Yeah, I think one thing that that we're unanimous about is that this is the right decision.

This way we can get out feeling strong, feeling we're at the peak of our game. Feeling the show has not become less than fresh and hasn't become a burden on anybody. We never wanted to have a feeling that the show was an open-ended proposition. Because that allows your storyline to spin into irrelevance or absurdity, and we all felt that we were telling a story that was going to have a beginning, a middle and an end. And now we get to do the end.

HBO.COM: So you're about halfway through filming, how far ahead have you mapped out the storylines?

ALAN POUL We have outlines up through episode ten, and on episodes eleven and twelve, we have a general idea, but the writers are still working on it. This keeps us flexible, so we see how things develop, how the actors play things, how the recurring characters are doing. Because when we bring in new recurring characters, their portrayal's and how they interact with our permanent cast really affects what we decide to do.

A good example would be in seasons three and four; the Russell story was deeply influenced by everything that Ben Foster brought to the role.

HBO.COM: Are new characters influencing this season so far?

ALAN POUL We have a lot of new, recurring characters. And also, you know, we're so aware that this season is different from all other seasons because it's the only last season we'll ever have. So in terms of bringing the story to a final, final, final close, we're not jumping to conclusions. There've been a lot of scenarios bandied about.

HBO.COM: What are some of the themes we'll be seeing this year?

ALAN POUL Well, most broadly put, the show always has to do with life in the midst of death--or death as the a part of life. And also with people's notions of a family. We've tried to stay true to those themes through five seasons. But in one change, this season has a lot of focus on parenting.

It becomes an issue with all the major couples.

Parenting, relationships between parents and children, ideas about what constitutes good parenting and creating families out of unorthodox structures are all issues that will play a more central role this season than they have in the past.

HBO.COM: How about you personally-- are you feeling the emotional pull of the last run?.

ALAN POUL Yeah, but I'll tell you something, going into production on a season is like being in a long, dark, tunnel. Being halfway through, we're at the point now where we can't really see the light where we came in and we can't see the light at the end yet.

I know there will come a time when we will become tremendously nostalgic, sentimental and sad that it's ending. But that would be premature.

I don't have the time to spare to feel those things right now. You know when you're when you're in the middle of a season you're still breaking stories and preparing scripts for the later episodes. But you haven't finished all your editorial and sound work on the earliest episodes. So there's not a single car that has completely rolled off the assembly line.

Thanks for posting that

I'm so excited about season 5 yet so saddened by it.

And the season 4 cover is just really freaky.
