    I love it so unconventional... it's a clever and twisted show!

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this show! Second only to LOST!

    Anyone who knows me, knows my fascination with FLDS and polygamists...thanks to Mr. Jon Krakauer..the greatest author of all time!

    Last night's epi was the best so far this season...I can't wait to find out what happens!

    I do not watch a lot of tv.

    Big Love, Sixty Minutes (i know people call me grandpa), and a lot of baseball but Big love got me hooked!

    there's nothing wrong with watching 60 mins. I watch it when I can and I'm 28! :)

    I've been a fan of Big Love since it started, and was afraid that the 3rd season wouldn't happen. I am so excited to hear now that it was picked up for a 4th.

    I really thought Frank was gonna bite it.... :evil:

    Every week I am usually torn on the endings.

    Although i thought last nights episode was spectacular I also thought that "you know who" having a baby would have been an interesting dynamic.

    I was really sad for her, I cried (but I'm a girl so that's ok ;) )

    I'm interested in how seeing other peoples reactions to the mormon "beliefs" might have changed Ben's thoughts on it all.

    ohhh and Nikki with the lawyer... hmmmm, interesting! *haha she bought Bill a cardigan after that guy said he bought one in Hawaii ... possibly Nikki was having a little "role play" that night of her own!

    i hear ya!

    The show is just damn good!

    i got hooked on this show last season - it's like this elaborate wreck and spiral of a family. What i really like is how the concept of "family" is off the norm, but not something that is easy to pin the black and white of the issues...

    My favorite character is prolly Nicolette

    she's a mess... one episode you HATE her and the next you love her (like how comforting she was to Sarah last night)

    YESH!

    what I really like about her, is she is the one that is the most consistent with "the principle" but, also the one that seems the most fleshed out...perhaps that is a result of Chloe Savingny (sp) talent?

    My least favorite is Margene. I really dislike her. She has reached her zenith as a human, there is no growth there...and I think that is really upsetting to a character drama...

    )(by the way - how've you been?)

    yeah I loved Margene in the beginning but I think you're right...there's no where left to go with her and this latest about her is just kinda ehhhh (for lack of words). I do wonder why she's crying in the next episode. For a season there I was sure she was gonna leave the family.

    Chloe has great talent... and plays Nikki so well. I'm really interested in what happens between her and the lawyer and actually I'd like for her to "find love" because I think she doesn't love Bill is only there out of duty to the principle. But then again with Nikki you NEVER know what she'll do. I also like that they rely on her to fix things :D

    I'm doing good, things are moving along here and my divorce will be final soon. how are you?

    speaking about divorce, the whole Anna thing... what did you think?

    I am usually upset on Nikki's behalf because it is really obvious that she wants to be honestly loved, but was raised to believe that isn't possible. Bill doesn't show her the same level of lust/love that he does for Margene and Barb...and that is the root of the prob for her...I kind of hope that she does start something with the Lawyer - my worry is he is going to "find out" and that will kill any possibility...

    I did NOT like Anna...i thought it was a stupid idea and it really solidified my dislike of Margene...she seemed so pathetic, I think they were trying for childlike and innocent...but, that isn't what I got from it.

    **finalized divorce is a good thing, right? get the whole thing over and done...so you can move on?

    I am doing well, health is good (finally) and the new job and move is finally settling down...i can breathe again!

    Ugh the WHOLE Anna thing pissed me off.... it was so selfish of Bill and Margene, and I hated how Margene was trying to take control over it all last season. I'm sure that's the ONLY reason why Barb went for it... after the advice from Adeline.

    Yes Nikki just seems stuck with everyone, never getting what SHE wants. You're right about the Lawyer and him finding out... it could be over OR he could take pity on her and the Polygamy life style she was raised in and try and 'help' her :D Under it all I think she wants to be a decent person but she's so used to having to fight for everything she has so she has such a back stabbing side to her.

    Frank and Wanda crack me up.... and Roman just creeps me out!! (ew the whole Rhonda thing was so gross).

    ***I'll just be happy to not have to deal with my ex any more... saying I'm divorced was never one of my hopes... but saying I'm married to someone who doesn't love me isn't either... so best be moving on and find someone who REALLY does.

    I'm glad to hear the health is better... new job and move? yikes a lot to swallow at once. where's home now for you? Breathing is good!! can't wait until I finally can! :D

    OH the Rhonda bit was horrifying...I love Nikki's mom, and I have to admit I like Alby...I think it's just because he is a closet gay mormon...somehow I find that very very satisfying. hahaha...

    **Yep, moving on is the way to go - I am very glad for you! after your breathe time, you'll be ready for real life again! awesome...

    I live in California still - can't leave my earth! it's near the Santa Cruz area - i work mostly in San Francisco...freelance ;)

    oh YES Albie.... the one Gay scene where he just started screaming... so intense!! (I did find the guy he picked up extremely hot and was hoping it was him again in the rest stop scene). His new wife though, she's a weird one! as if they all aren't :P

    **thanks :) breathing is on it's way...I can feel it.
    Ohhh nice area... and it's still California...BONUS! :D
