The series is regarded by film critics as one of the most successful. This is true even though I saw it 18 years later.
Very good selection of actors. Performing roles at the highest actor level. An unusual plot and a beautiful “clip” performance of the plots: brief and informative.
At the heart of the event is the family funeral business. Mom (in the sixth ten), eldest son Nate (35), youngest son David (30), daughter (16). His father, the head of the company, had just died in a car accident. Business is established, you need to competently support it.
In terms of genre, all genres are present in the series. Moreover, I will not be able to single out a single life situation that was not touched upon in the film: 5 seasons, each with 12 episodes per hour. Not one boring or unsaturated event.
The peculiarity is that the funeral business did not have the best effect on family members: everyone’s personal life is unsuccessful and even tragic. So the audience (including me) is doomed to watch for the rest of the seasons.
I recommend watching.
