Hey all!!

I am gonna write today about Billy Chenowith, who happens to be a maniac artist and younger brother of Brenda on our favorite show Six Feet Under. Jeremy Sisto has enacted this character quite well, with all that aggressive and fanatic mannerisms.

For his bipolar disorder he undergoes extensive psychiatric treatment and medication but his problem is generally aggravated as he does not take his medicines when required. His condition is such that many a time harm is caused to his family as well.

You all may recall that in 1986, he had supposedly burned down a part of the family’s house. Then in another instance he created a tattoo with a box cutter on his back and tries to repeat the act to his sister. These tattoos were actually supposed to be Nathaniel and Isabel, their favorite fictional characters. Some people still believe that there was too much intimacy between the brother and sister when they were kids, even as the episode, Static proved otherwise.

Nevertheless, this incident forces his family to send him away to an institution. Not many people know that Billy was once a student and teacher at LAC - Arts, the same place where Claire Fisher completes her studies till the end of 2004. They both meet for the first time in 2001 at Brenda’s place and have a good instantaneous bonding, which Billy terminates later on. Even at the institute, he only interacts with Claire and no one else.

As he comes out, they re start their friendship, which leads to dating and even they live in for some time. However, some old friends of his tell him that he is no longer that good old Billy and stuff like that, and he thinks that his artistic sense is now missing. So he stops taking his medicines and Claire leaves him when he refuses to listen to the reason, for the sake of her safety. To get her back, Billy resumes his medication but she declines to come back. When Nate is dead, Billy remains with his sister but soon she asks him to leave. The closeness between the siblings remains till the end of the show Six Feet Under, and Billy is there with Brenda even in her last moments.
