Big Love, Season 3 Approaches
December 29, 2008
I know there are things I should be doing instead . . . solitaire, filing my nails, soduku, but I keep watching old episodes of Big Love getting ready for season 3, starting Jan. 18th at 9pm. Hooray! With no Heidi to occupy my tv obsessions, I have to return to my favorite band of polygamists, introduced by Em & Jose over dinner a few years back.
The Hendricksons of Utah have a marriage that is as dysfunctional as any on TV, just a few more wives to contend with. Think of it as “The L Word” meets “American Beauty.” Sweet, complicated, and in these folks’ case, illegal. The folks “back on the compound” are my favorite – Lois, Wanda, and, in a way, Nikki. They cling to “the principle” while racking up the credit card debt and stabbing each other in the back like every other meat-eating, gun-toting American.
Check it out, but do your homework, seasons 1 & 2 are pretty fun!

i watched season 1 and some of season 2. i will have to finish season 2…but we don’t have HBO (or is it on SHO, we don’t have that either) so i will have to wait a while to see season 3 anyway.
the sixth and final season of the L Word starts in january, too!
maybe i should invest in better cable channels for my maternity leave….

First of all, where’s Heidi? Will she be back? Now that we have DISH, I can keep up with my favorite shows. Jess, you’ll have to keep me informed on what to watch.
Note to SDH…you can also get all the previous season’s shows from Netflix and watch them at your leisure. Did you know, an hours TV show is really only 42 minutes?! That’s how I’ve watched Grey’s Anatomy, The Riches and Weeds – great shows, all of them.
Happy New Year
