To heck with more than one wife. What about equal rights? Can a woman have more than one husband? Can I get a few of my older buddies together and we all hire share marry some hot younger chick woman? I bet we could arrange it so she wouldn't have to do much housework or cooking.

Can’t imagine all the door-slamming going on in that house. :)

I met a guy who had seven wives. I was on my way to St. Ives at the time.

I think I would like several husbands. A couple of real earners, a fix it type, a magical in bed one, and perhaps one to do my hair.

The best election the libertarians ever had, was in 1980, trying to defeat Ronald Reagan, the man despised by Ayn Rand.

Liabertarians have many things in common with the Left—both want drugs legalized, believe traditional marriage ought to be upended, and see nothing wrong with the country being overrun with illegal aliens.

"I saw an ad for it. Has this country gone bonkers? Why would anyone watch that show? What happened to the other one with all the wives?"

It's still on.

Both the "Sister Wives" bunch and this new one strive to portray themselves as deliriously happy and normal. But the reality is something else. The women in "My Five Wives" are as miserable as the Brown women.

I can’t stand the Brown wives they are whiners one episode they argue with each other about who is Korby spent time with

I stop watching after that I saw first season as “shock” then second second I quit

Why not brother and sister or father and daughter?

I appreciate what you are saying about problems with polygamy. BUT, as happened with homosexual marriage, we are not going to be allowed to have any debate about whether it’s good for society. Instead, the liberal view will be forced on us, the liberal mindset that consenting adults should do whatever they want, and one will be charged with discrimination and bigotry if one opposes polygamy.

It happened with homosexual marriage. We never could have a civil discussion about whether it was good for society. Instead, it was shoved down our throats by liberals and liberal judges. We we told it was bigotry to question homosexualasexual marriage. Look for the same to happen with polygamy. I expect liberal judges to force polygamy on us.

Hmmm. If this is normal, once I get married to my girlfriend (thinking positive), she won't care if I want to bring another woman there. LOL. Right.

On the other side of things, I damn well wouldn't be accepting another guy. There's one alpha male, and it's me.

[reaganaut]

I would agree with that as well, which is ironic since technically we went to war with Utah over polygamy.

[CatherineofAragon]

I hate to admit it, but a friend and I watch it because it’s such a train wreck.

You are right about the wives....they sit on the couch and cry and blubber constantly. Then they wipe their eyes with their fingers and wipe their fingers on their legs...ugh.

[SevenofNine]

It was train wreck in second year first year ah it was shock of seeing this asking yourself Whattt

After second year middle of the second year I really stop watching it

Could not bring myself to watch this program that aired tonight. If you did view the program, how accurate is the analysis from this blogger. Thanks.
