Big Love, Big Love, Big Love

I've been waiting, waiting, since Monday, for Bond to bring up his Big Love thread, but guess if you want something done you gotta do it yourself. Sheesh! And I thought I was gonna get to kick back as a Goddess and let all the Gods and mortals do the work!

(Frankly, I'm surprised Bond wasn't all over this episode since it featured some Margene-on-Bill action.)

This week delivered the two words I've been praying to hear ever since the series started:

Blood.

Atonement.

I've been wondering if this would be how Roman will eventually explain the death/removal of Prophet Hendrikson. Now that the term has been uttered---but no definition of the historically ambiguous practice, yet---let's hope this leads to where some bodies are buried.

Also of interest was the fact that we now have THREE rival Mormon fundamentalist factions: Juniper Creek, the scary inbred Green clan, and the "pervert" Abbots. Which do you think April "anti-polyg crusader" Blessing hails from?

I think the Green hit squad wives are modeled roughly on the LaBaron women who were sent to snuff Rulon Allred. I continue to be pleased by the deft hand for historical nuance the writers of the series have.

You're slipping, Bond! All I've heard is you complaining about "no Margene skin". LOL

I hate that I don't have HBO right now. GRRR! Don't they have the first season out on DVD? I may have to rent them.

After reading the threads on here I may have to rent it as well.

That was pretty cool, but I wish they would have shown more of Margene (other than her back, everything else was strategically covered). Bummer.

Sorry....Jeez. I'll post my Big Love thoughts on that same thread (just to keep things nice and tidy, so keep an eye out for it).
