“The Big C” - one of the best written TV shows ever. This last season, called “The Big C: Hereafter” ends next Monday. So sad. I teared up last week! Laura Linney and the entire cast are outstanding. The writers are top notch. Darlene Hunt created the show and writes some of the episodes. TRULY great storytelling here.
"The show came to me in a period of time … when I was having real existential moments of thinking about time and the time that we have and that it is limited. It just is. It’s human nature to — thank god — not have [death] be the first thing you think about every single second, but there is a reality to it and as I’ve been aging and parents are dying and I’ve unfortunately lost friends who were way too young to go, you realize, what a privilege it is to age and that’s not a message we hear a lot in the United States."
— Laura Linney talks to Dave Davies about aging and where she was emotionally when she began work on the Showtime dark comedy series The Big C, in which she plays a terminally ill cancer patient.

I don’t want to let them down.
By dying?
By leaving before they’re ready.
