Six Feet Under produced tears not just because of all the drama, but because the show will be missed. Tears were welling up during the "In Memoriam" special the hour before.

As the final tears were drying up and the credits were rolling, suddenly reality interceded. Who in the hell moves to New York City driving a brand new car?
It is assumed that Toyota must have paid at least $5 million for the product placement of Claire driving across the country in her brand new blue Toyota Prius.
