Yeah. The Rick situation is messed up. It's kind of sad he has to bring his personal feelings into his business.

And Melissa looks way too thin! Yikes!

I wonder if they are so busy thanks to the show. I know, if I lived near the funeral home, I'd be using their services.

I'm kind of glad to see Emily split from her husband. He came across as being a bit of a loser when he was shown in past episodes.

I have missed this family!

I am so glad Shonna freaked out on Rick. I don't know how they put up with him.

Matt seemed like a nice enough guy, but he kind of gave me the creeps as well.

I was shocked when Matt said he was 41 years old. I thought he was far older! I was surprised that at least for the time-being, they were getting along since I wonder how long a guy like him who refrains from drinking, smoking, swearing (esp!) is going to be able to handle that situation day in and day out. I saw there was an attempt to curb some of the language, but unless they all make a major attempt, I don't see it lasting. They always have to bleep so much of what they say! It's a good thing Rick came around or else he would have ended up with a business with no employees and he just may have realized that precarious position he was in. He really had been acting horribly!

I really enjoy this show. Good for Shonna! Rick needed to hear all that. I think he will be much better when he finds a new girlfriend.

Can someone help me? I started watching Family Plots this season, but missed the last season. How did Chuck and his daughters come to work at the funeral home. Isn't Rick the owner? Is Rick related to them?

I have the same questions Juju. I caught a few of last seasons episodes. Rick is not related. He is the manager; I do not believe he owns it. He had a relationship that ended badly with one of the sisters as you saw.

I went to their site and Shonna is the funeral director and a blurb on the A&E site says she brought her family into the business. She must be the owner, most funeral directors are.

According to the website, Rick is General Manager, but it doens't indicate ownership.

Oh, just found a San Diego website article that says, Smith's corporate-owned mortuary on Poway Road was chosen for the series after she responded to an advertisement in a trade publication seeking a family of undertakers to star in a real-life version of HBO's Emmy Award-winning drama "Six Feet Under."

It also says, Originally from the Detroit area, Smith's family followed her west to San Francisco, then to San Diego. Her father and sisters got involved in the funeral business, she said, while helping out during busy periods.

So there's a corporation that actually owns the place, Rick is the GM, and Shonna is the lead mortician/embalmber.

I just watched last night's episodes. I was LOL at the way the argument with John and Chuck ended. Just like guys -- they had a five-minute phone call, apologized, and it was over. And just like gals -- they were still stewing over it long after the guys had put it behind them! It's a stereotype, I know, but it's there because it's often true. Us gals just tend to talk, talk, talk when something bugs us and it's much harder for us to let it go.

Of course, there are always exceptions to the rule. :-)

I agree with you, Max.

As much as I like Shonna, she seems to be the worst when it comes to carrying on the drama. She always says she doesn't want to get in the middle of things, yet she's always in the thick of things--stirring things up.

I wish they would have shown Chuck at moments when he is being as bad as everyone says he is. We only seem to see Chuck when he is goofing around.

It's hard to sympathize with (or even believe) everyone when they complain about Chuck when we never see him do the things they say he does.

Thanks Max and Fruitbat for the information. I hate watching something and you feel like you are missing something. I really like this show. Hate I just discovered it. I agree with Scorpiomoon, Shonna is somewhat of a drama queen. She needs to lighten up some. Thanks again.
