Brothers & Sisters: A Week Late On This Post

ByEdward Pizzarello

Spoiler alert.  While I’m probably the last person to watch the season finale of Brothers & Sisters, if you follow the show AND haven’t watched the season finale, I’m about to ruin it for you.

About a week ago, as my wife and I were getting caught up on Brothers & Sisters, I realized how much I enjoy watching Rob Lowe.  He was one of my favorite characters on West Wing, and he’s grown into such a great character on Brothers & Sisters.

It always seems like Brothers & Sisters has another dilemna around the corner.  In the second-to-last episode of the season, the family has to close down Ojai foods.  But, as we close the season finale, the family discovers a gigantic aquifer in some land they own.  Hurrah!

Er, um, no.  The season ends with a car crash involving two carfuls of Walkers.  In the span of the final 90 seconds, we find out Saul is HIV-positive, and Robert McCalister (Rob Lowe) dies.

Jeebus.

My goal in life is to fill my family’s passports with stamps, creating buckets of memories along the way. You’ll find me writing about realistic ways for normal people to travel the world, whether you’re on a budget or enjoy luxury. I also enjoy taking us on the occasional detour to explore the inner workings of the travel industry.
