      Transparent is similar to the dysfunctional family themes and have relatable characters. I would go with that, but six feet is still the best.

        Watch it again.
        I just finished a run-through for about the tenth time - I basically had it on loop for a few years after it initially ended, heh - and am still finding new depths and ways to respond to the characters. At the risk of sounding a bit wanky, I think you can only truly appreciate the growth and complexities with multiple viewings.

            Nice. It really is necessary sometimes, nothing else can quite compete! This was my first time watching the series in quite a few years, and I needed that break but it was so good going back to it. It's like visiting old friendsreally screwed up old friends, who I want to hug and strangle in equal measure, but dear friends nonetheless.

                If we are talking about well-crafted story-telling, I like
                Breaking Bad
                , but it's not really similar to SFU and quite dark.
                United States of Tara
                is a very light drama/comedy.
                The Big C

                • great story about learning to deal with an approaching death in a funny way.

                Never say never

                    Nothing, it's pretty overrated.
                    You should actually try United States of Tara though

                      It's hard to find a show that fills the space of SFU and there's nothing else quite like it. One thing SFU did for me was to heavily invest me in the characters..and make me not want to leave themaside from the excellent writing and acting.
                      Here's a few that might help;
                      BSG
                      was a good choice..although it reminds me more of
                      LOST
                      ..(which also is a good choice if you haven't watched it. I fell in love with those characters no matter how crazy it got)
                      Breaking Bad
                      (if you can find a way to relate to either Walt or Jesse it's excellent)
                      Rectify
                      (it's not for everyone and it's a slow burn but if you're into character development it's one of the most haunting shows out there)
                      Friday Night Lights
                      (I hated football but loved this show..It's better than you might think even if you're not into football or teenagers)
                      As far as excellently written or just enjoyableand maybe investing in the characters there's these to try
                      Ray Donovan
                      The Americans
                      Fargo
                      GOT
                      Orphan Black
                      Kingdom (I'm not into MMA but it's a good show with interesting characters)
                      Outlander
                      Bloodlines

                        I'm now addicted to Rectify.. and it's all your fault! Haha Thanks for the suggestions!

                          Bloodline (Netflix) reminds me of SFU somewhat.
                          No so much the storybut the family dynamic is pretty similar.
