Big Love
 
Did anyone catch the premeire of this HBO show? I thought it was so interesting...a modern day polygamist. I can't wait to watch next Sunday.

Co-sign! Very thought-provoking, to say the least.

I watched it. It was cool. For some reason, I suspected the mom all along.

It was interesting to watch. I actually have a friend who is sort of in that type of arrangement. She says it works for her and takes the pressure off at times. I guess to each is own.

Me too. I don't know what he did but I sort of feel sorry for her. That is in a Lorena Bobbitt sort of way.

I also think that Rhonda is going to turn out to be a H.A.M. Poor thing.

Finally, HC Chloe Sevigny always plays crazy people.

I caught a rerun last night, and I like how they showed some of the realities of a polygamous lifestyle. I know that there was some concern from the Mormon community (who banned this lifestyle some time ago) that this show would romanticize polygamy and downplay some of the injustices that take place in these large communities. I was pleased to see that it appears to be a balanced view point.

Actually I think it's the man who gives her the tea or whatever it is for the father to drink. It seems like he's the leader of the group. Maybe they'll be more to talk about next week. :D

I hope it doesn't die early though. I loved Carnivale and that was cancelled. :rolleyes:

Cuz Chloe is crazy. I saw a picture of her looking like Col. Sanders in a white suit with that Col. Sanders tie.

I think so too but she didn't seem none too hurried about getting hubby ANY treatment.
