Think this series came into its own in Season 2 – not unusual for a TV show. After Buffy’s oh-so-dorky first season growing into what it eventually did, I’ve grown willing to let a show take a season or so to really get into its groove, if there’s enough in the first season to keep me coming back. Big Love managed that partly because of the theme song (heh heh), but mostly because it was just so different—I wanted to see how the content was treated. In Season 2 I found myself appreciating the writing more: with all that’s happening now and with so many characters being increasingly fleshed out and involved, there’s so much they seem to be having to integrate neatly, and it continually strikes me they’re doing it beautifully. I read Season 3’s supposed to take off with even more craziness! I’m looking forward to it!
