'Big Love': Farewell to the Hendricksons
the series finale was fulfilling. it ended somewhat as i expected. it went out not with a whimper but a bang. well two bangs actually. did patriarch bill hendrickson become the latter day jesus christ of latter day saints? well yes he actually did and not subtly. after 5 seasons the polygamist clan is gone. (i am amazed this series never won an emmy. or the audience it deserved.) this season made up for the rather disappointing fourth season in a big way. it was dark as the winter it was titled. the ending assured us that the 'sister wives' and their clan would survive and thrive. it was always foremost about the wives and each in her own way will live as they hoped for within their hearts. i will miss this show. it was mostly intelligent (darn that 4th season), entertaining, generally well scripted and superbly acted. bill paxton, jeanne tripplehorn, gennifer goodwin and chloe sevigny shined. and it was nice that amanda seyfried 'guested' on the finale on the show that made her a star. this is a rarity in the biz seeing an actor go back to their 'roots' to pay homage and say 'thanks'.

'Big Love', Chloe Sevigny and Lizzie Borden
'big love' ends sunday on hbo. except for last season it was a good show. this season was exceptional and made up for last year. in a good move hbo has picked up chloe sevigny's 'lizzie borden' as a two parter. chloe has always stood out on 'big love' but this year, especially last week, went to the darkest sides of her character nicki. i am going to miss this series but am grateful hbo gave it a chance.
