Just watched the first season of Big Love on DVD. Interesting and funny. Chloe Sevigny and Harry Dean Stanton are seriously creepy and a delight to watch. Second season is on the way from Netflix as I write! As far as polygamy is concerned, that's some male fantasy bullshit in my book! Who in the hell wants to be wife #2, much less wife #3? Sure in the hell not me.
I love this show. The first season was very funny. I haven't gotten to watch it lately but I plan on renting the season.

I know that you may not agree with my opinion but here goes..
ReplyDeleteI think that more black people should embrace this sort of lifestyle because it will save the 40% of black women that have never been married. Plus, in this sort of situation, more wealth can be generated stoping our dependance on government aid. Just a thought.
thought this was well written. Nice to see something new on TV. just wait for season #3.............for confirmation on your thoughts of male supremecy BILL @#$%^&*()*&^%$$^&*
ReplyDelete@Camile,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the view, but I doubt many black women would be happy sharing a husband. Despite the humor of this show, I think living in this fashion is a very tough life.
And I also doubt that such a situation would end folks being on government aid because upper class black men who can afford a wife in the first place wouldn't risk the heat such a lifestyle would cause and poor black men couldn't afford it.
It's an interesting thought though. I'd love to hear more sisters weigh in on it. Look for a future post.
