TV stuff

Big Love is probably the best drama on television. Some people may be thrown by the subject matter of polygamy, but so was I at first. Sometimes the best shows come in strange and even unpleasant packages. HBO's Six Feet Under couldn't of had a worse premise, but was also a brilliant depiction of family life. Whether in a funeral home or in a three home neighborhood of sister wives, family is just plain nuts. Yours, mine, everyone's. Maybe showing families as sane, happy, and completely functional is less realistic than showing them as having three wives or three mothers in near chaos. Its the dysfunction that makes it believable, not the setting or the number of wives.

You'll love Big Love, just watch it!
