Why it’s on the list: Six Feet Under is possibly my favourite TV series of all time, though I only came to it partway through the second series. I have all 5 series on DVD, I’ve had them for at least 3 years now but so far have only managed to find time to watch the first 5 episodes.

How/when I’ll judge this task to be completed: I will have watched all 5 series by the end of the 1001 days.
