Who watched Big Love last night?
They're all crazy ass republicans and none of them is in touch with reality.

3. Yep. Bill asking Don to 'take the bullet' was so typical of
Repubs. On the other hand, I'm starting to like Alby.

He resembles Harry's aura.

7. I only started watching it in the past couple of months
I caught up on all of the seasons, but I still don't understand who their audience is. Do Mormon's like the show? Are they offended by it? It seems to be a scathing indictment of the LDS church all around, but yet it seems to be done in such a way that they can't really argue with it.

It's a confusing show. I don't like how some of the characters are so one-dimensional and predictable. Bill has a perpetual look on his face like he's sucking lemons, and his whiny voice, no matter what he's saying, sounds like he's complaining. Nicky too, and I've seen her in other acting roles so I know she can do otherwise, but she's just always complaining. Barb is annoying for undetermined reasons.

The characters that I like are: Margie, Bill's mom and dad (comic relief) and the daughter who just married the meth head from Breaking Bad.

What an odd show. The hypocrisy is just off the charts, but I suppose it's intended that way.

8. I Liked The Show A Lot The First Couple Of Seasons...
This season, not so much. The writing seems especially weak to me and this political plot line is just absurd.
