So i was sitting on my bed yestersday going through the tv guide and i come across a show called "Big Love" I hti the info button and it says the show is based on
Modern Day Polygamy I stayed up EXTRA late watching it and it turns out its FANTASTIC! Im addicted to it now.

So yea i was just wondering if people have seen it and enjoy it OR if you think its demeaning to the polygamist community. Ok well i mdone yapping.

Good Morrow To All!

I haven't seen it (even though we have HBO). My son and I are living with mom right now though, and because she's Mormon and there's sensitivity there as far as Mormons' former practicing of polygamy goes, I doubt I'll watch it.

^It actually is supposed to be very good about not portraying the Morman faith in a bad light. I read the reviews and they did say that it was respectable to their beliefs and was simply a show about a man dealing with three seperate wives.

I was going to watch it when I was home, but as I don't have premium cable at school, I decided not to since I didn't want to get addicted then mad that I couldn't watch it. It looks great, though.

Well that's good to know. My mom loves Bill Paxton so she was a little disappointed in the content. (I could care less, I don't follow her religion).
Thanks Rachel.

No problemo dear.
I am currently watching the show now, thank you HBO On Demand. It is not amazing, but it is enjoyable I guess.

It's kind of boring and doesn't have much of a storyline, but for some reason, I still watch it. Not to mention is extremely far-fetched and not realistic at all. I'm not mormon or anything, but I'm sure they don't base everything around sex like the show does. I thought that was a little ridiculous.
Having three houses in some cheesey suburban neighborhood? Please.

I just think it is interesting. And I am sure that it is not "ridiculus". Once you are married, sex is fine. Just because they don't promote sexuality and sex, it doesn't mean they don't have it. Plus, how do you think they end up with such big families

(That was a joke, my very closest friends are Morman.)
