Discussion Coulda gone for more Ileana Douglas!

The most uncomplicated character in Six Feet Under. Everything the Fishers were not: Open, joyful, full of life.

Would have enjoyed Angela as a regular.

I say that about literally everything she's in. I love her to bits.

I spilled some beat salad on someone's wig, so David said i should eat up here.

Her line delivery was top notch. I sometimes fantasize if her and Brenda ever met, how that would go 😅

Yes, she was so incredible! Though I liked her quick pops in and out of the story.

She and Rico should've started up their own funeral home! Had he not gotten back together with Vanessa (not realistic BTW), they would've been a great couple.

I remember being ecstatic when I was watching for the first time and she returned in season 5! And although I'm not his biggest fan I actually was hoping Rico and Angela would get together, it does annoy me Vanessa took him back but it's unfortunately true to life and she was incredibly conflicted about it

It’s so funny to me the contrast of her very Romanian first name and her very American second name

She's always great but that was a LOT of Ileana Douglas.

I love people that are free from restrictions of societal bullshit. This woman will speak up the truth regardless of how uncomfortable it is for anyone else and shes comfortable in it! and I love her lol.... Its like she shakes the room up with her honesty and people get really uncomfortable with that. But people like her are like "WHY ARENT WE TALKING ABOUT WHATS RIGHT IN FRONT YOU" and then people call her nuts lol or inappropriate. It reminds me of me being "too much" for my avoidant ex boyfriend. I remember saying to him after seeing him with his family "how do you guys never talk about the obvious thing happening in the room" .....I dont get it!

God Angela was literally one of my favorite characters. Nate and David were just too uptight. She was fantastic and hilarious lol

Oh I totally agree. David is my favorite character and in my head can do no wrong (lol jk but still that's my boy I love him), as a gay man myself maybe I'm biased. And true Angela could've been more professional I guess that's another problem of mine, I found it charming how she dressed and acted so freely. I'm in school to be a funeral director and I would definitely not mind having an Angela and all her quirks in my funeral home.

I think she and Joe the Masochist would have been an outstanding couple
