The characters on
Six Feet Under were fascinating to watch, but they often made horrible romantic choices. Even the couples that stood the test of time had their issues. Most of the truly memorable train wrecks didn't last, though. Here's a look back at some of the show's weirdest relationships.
Ruth Fisher and Arthur Martin - Ruth and Arthur's relationship was arguably the most awkward pairing in

Well, this isn't a big surprise: TV Guide's Mike Ausiello has just found out from FOX that
The Return of Jezebel James has been canceled after three episodes.
Jezebel James was the first project for executive producer Amy Sherman-Palladino since she and her husband, Daniel Palladino, left
Gilmore Girls after the show's sixth season.
Reviews for the show --
including mine -- were largely negative; almost all of them cited how Sherman-Palladino's unique writing style and pace were thrown off by the studio audience / laugh track used for the show. FOX obviously didn't have any confidence in the show, because it was airing episodes on Friday nights after cutting its initial order
