• The Hollis clan is based on an actual homicidal Mormon cult of the ’70s; several of the sister-wives are still at large and wanted by the FBI. Also, according to Mark Olsen, they will tell the story of Hollis Green’s freaky-deaky and seemingly transgender wife: “We’ll find out who she is.”

I've been hoping people would be talking about Flight of the Conchords, but alas...

You mean about how it's gone steadily downhill since they ran out of songs?

When did they run out of songs?! I don't have HBO now but I've seen a couple from this season that were hilarious!

As the saying goes, you have your whole life to make your first album, but then only six months to make your second.

I don't know, I thought the songs in the most recent episodes have been hilarious. It got off to a shakey start, I thought, but from Michael Gondry's episode onwards I've been enjoying it as much as last season.

I like the songs just fine, but I have to admit I kind of suffer through the show otherwise. I kind of liked "Told You I Was Freaky". And I LOVED "Sugar Lumps". In fact I found myself humming it in school the next day. I think it was the "two complimentary after-dinner mints" that pushed it over the top into my favorites.

Actually I poked the thread because I've gotten sucked into Big Love and wanted to get some affirmation: Nikki! FINALLY!

I still love their characters, I just wish that they didn't feel like they had to have a couple of songs each episode, because I think that has made the show very uneven this season.
