HBO's - Big Love Discussion (SPOILERS) - Blu-ray Forum

DrinkMore · 03-11-2009, 01:27 AM

So, anyone here watch Big Love? I have been watching since the start and each episode/season keeps me wanting more. Who is your favorite character? What irks you the most? What do you think of the show?

I think my favorite character is Margie. So innocent, plays dumb but really smart and tactful.

Always liked Daveigh Chase as Rhonda Volmer. I'm happy she's in S. Darko even if it might be horrible.

Oh and Chloe Sevigny as Nicolette Grant. Sometimes I like the manipulative characters.

Ah, Nicki is one that I love and hate. Right now, I hate her. Just when you think she has changed some, she hasn't. It's a roller coaster ride of emotions with her.

I've been watching since the get go. It actually gets better with each season. It's weird though. As I watch an episode, it feels like I'm watching 2 different shows. One about a guy living in suburbia with his 3 wives and another about the twists and turns of Juniper Creek. I actually like the Juniper Creek plotlines the most. Especially this season. Just gripping stuff.

I haven't seen any of s3 but I always like her. She's the person who when you think you've figured her out there's always more.

The whole show is fascinating. Mormons (fundamentalist or not) are extremely interesting.

Yup. You remember that little scene with Albie at the truck stop? You think they will take that further or was it just a one time thing? I thought that was interesting.

I enjoy the show for what it is. Nothing more. To me it's just a show

The road trip episode was the best so far.

I liked it when Margie put flammable chemicals in her dryer to clean out the crayon mess. Lol.

Any chance this will be released on blu? Hopefully at a price point cheaper than Sopranos.

Another_Dude · 03-11-2009, 02:39 PM

We've watched since episode one and the show is really hitting its stride. Can't wait to see how this season wraps up.

Neither can I.

I am glad Bill did not take a 4th wife. I think that would have ruined the show. I think they knew that too and decided to scrap it.

Heart&Soul · 03-11-2009, 02:53 PM

It's been renewed for another season.

Sonny · 03-11-2009, 02:58 PM

It's a great show & I've been enjoying it.

Ator the Invincible · 03-11-2009, 08:27 PM

I think someone big's gonna die in the finale this season. It's just a gut feeling. They've never really offed cast members on this show before. They teased it a few times with Roman and Bill's dad, but they always backed down in the end. They finally went through with it with Kathy, but she was a minor character. I just have a feeling they're gonna shock us in 2 weeks. Maybe a Grant, maybe one of Bill's wives... or maybe both...

For the record, I'm just guessing. No insider info here!

krazeyeyez · 03-11-2009, 08:32 PM

BIG fan of BIG LOVE! show is extremely engaging and really does offer perspectives of many facets of the subject matter at hand, original show, i have not seen it since the second season, waiting for another dvd season to release

VinnAY · 03-11-2009, 11:19 PM

I still enjoy it each week or when I can catch up with my DVR epi's. One thing that I haven't particularly enjoyed was when after season 1 they departed somewhat from the poligamy aspect and went with all the drama and backstabbing and turmoil that they currently have. Don't get me wrong, it's entertaining and interesting, it just seemed that with the 1st season popularity, they turned 2/3 into a soap opera of manipulation and deceit, etc etc etc

The show has got to be the worst I have seen at portraying a religious group with accuracy, of course any Utahns here would back that up.

and here it is...

You do realize this is a TV SHOW right? It's not a documentary or anything as such right? You can't expect too much of anything when it comes to a TV SHOW.
