I thought it was a very good first episode. Better than Entourage and The Comeback were. I'm a little surprised at how well Rico is doing dating again. I'm also a little surprised how quickly Nate and Brenda are getting married.

I thought the wedding was filled with powerful moments. When Ruth slaps Claire, and then Brenda's two conversations with Lisa and Nate were quite moving. I also liked how Nate looks at the bird eating the wedding cake, and we're reminded of Lisa.

I don't really understand why Nate was crying in the doctor's office in the show's last shot.

Your thoughts?

Good episode. Did a good job of establishing the major plotlines for the season. Given that this is the last season, I just hope they don't bring in so many new tangents that they have to abandon major stories or wrap things up in a half-assed way. The writing has always been good so far though, so I think they'll be ok.

I laughed at the opening scene death. Is that wrong?

Glad to see the creators of Six Feet Under havent lost their fastball. Good first episode.

Nate cried because he kept putting off his grief. He had that moment alone to grieve.

It was excellent. But I wanted to kill myself after.

A friend was over watching it while I played poker. She said it sucked, so that's my opinion.
