It's a new drama based on polyamory/polygamy on HBO. One guy, three wives, all on the up and up.
I've run across statements from folks in some poly communities that they're looking forward to this show because it'll help with the public image of poly, and show how it *really* is.
I reeeeeeeally don't think so. TV ratings are based on creating disasters for the characters... and honestly, this is so ripe with potential problems for poly's image that it isn't funny. "See? They're all nuts!"
