The second season of this darkly comical HBO TV series delves into the lives of the Fishers, a dysfunctional Los Angeles family that operates a funeral home. Each episode surrounds the details of the family's current client, and the Emmy-winning show's larger story arcs explore siblings Nate (Peter Krause), David (Michael C. Hall) and Claire (Lauren Ambrose), Nate's girlfriend (Rachel Griffiths) and the passive-aggressive mother (Frances Conroy).
