Yeah, I'm really looking forward to HBO's next original series: With A Wink And A Smile in which they exploit the entire Catholic religion for gay priest pedophilia. I've heard that Randy Quaid's portrayal of Father McPheely is already generating Emmy buzz.
Strong work HBO.
Don't drink the Kool-Aid, mang. I mean, you know as well as anyone that the preponderence of multi-marrying in this country is in the hill country along the UT-AZ border. It is a real thing.
Now, HBO might take liberties, putting the polygamist amongst a subdivision of singly-married individuals, but that's dramatic licence.
Deal with it.
Trust me, I'm dealing just fine, and haven't had Kool-Aid in years. I realize that the majority of polygamous families reside in the mountain west---I've taken care of a few of them. I don't belong to the Mormon Church, nor any other religion.
My point (let me bring out the sledgehammer), is that I feel like the Mormon religion is too easily mocked and takes a lot of shit that should be equally directed at every other religion out there, but is not.
Not that all religions can't be this simplified but:
"I was walking through the woods today,and THE ARCHANGEL GABRIEL appeared to me. He gave me some tablets. I FORGOT where I buried them. LEt's go to Illinois...they hate us here: QUICK TO THE DESERT!! We can marry as many as we like, don't like them blacks, and eventually can get our own universes!!"
Sounds more like a cult than Scientology to me.
Oh, and this show was a bit much watching with the future in-laws...but the chick from the Cash movie has that pudgy/sexy look GOIN ON!!
