But doesn't anyone miss Brenda?

Am I the only one who found her the most beguiling of all the
characters. Empathic, sharp, sexy, witty, mature, kind, stylish. Yet
she seems almost secondary in the eyes of most fans. Why? What have you
got against her? Tell me, I need to know... I can do without almost
anyone on the show, but not seeing Brenda any more - that really gets
to me!

She was IMO the most interesting character on the show -- the most
complex, the most self aware, and probably the most intelligent.

And yes, she was also witty and stylish.

The Nate/Brenda arc was the most compelling in the show, in part because
Brenda was a catalyst in making Nate more self aware and macro-focused.

"Six Feet Under" was damaged permanently and irreparably when the
writers became bored and lazy, so brought in the ghastly Lisa full time.

Count me in.... I liked Brenda from the start. Put she sold me
during her scene with Nate right after his father's funeral....
======================================
Brenda: Well after four days with my family I'm ready for shock
therapy. Just waiting to see if my HMO covers
it.

Nate: Ahhh

Brenda: How's it going with you.

Nate: Oooh... It's great. Great and my father is dead,
my mom's a whore, my bother wants to kill me and my sister
is smoking crack. I think I win. Four days ago I was
a relatively happy guy, now it's like I don't even know
who that guy was. (Pause) I'm a fucking mess if you want
top now the truth. But I think you're already aware of that.

Brenda: Well.... here's my number. If you want to....
go out on a real date. You know... where you buy me
dinner before I put out.

Nate: (Laughing) Ahha!

Brenda: Maybe I'm one of those women that needs a man who seems
emotionally conflicted, no relationshop skills... and I figure, Hey!,
it's for me.

Nate: You know.... I don't even live here, I live in Seatle...

Brenda: (Interupting Nate) See that makes you more attractive.

Nate: Really!

Brenda: Oh yeah!

Nate: Well I also happen to be a serial rapist. Got ten nurses
buried under my house.

Brenda: Now you're making me wet.
======================================
Brenda made Nate a much more interesting character, and
vice versa.

At last!!!!! All this time I have been trying to figure out what every one
else saw in Nate that I missed. Especially after the Lisa arc started. I
thought Lisa was a manipulative bitch & Nate lost all identity of his
own--willingly. Brenda knew her faults , tried to run from them & always
came back to face them some way. She was my favorite character, I wish I
had 1/2 the fight she had. So chalk me up as a Brenda fan too.
