HollywoodChicago.com TV review: HBO's 'Big Love' locks viewers in for season-three family drama

Submitted by HollywoodChicago.com on January 22, 2009 - 2:05am.

HollywoodChicago.com’s Lauren Huelster Fendelman says in her review of season three of HBO’s hit drama “Big Love”:

Lauren Huelster Fendelman wrote:The HBO show is themed around a feeling that it’s almost impossible to get out. “Big Love” never leaves the Mormon community. While you see the positive parts of being in the community, you can also feel the pressure that you cannot leave. In much the same way the characters in “Big Love” feel trapped, so will its viewers feel locked into riding out the entirety of season three.

“Big Love” on HBO stars Bill Paxton, Jeanne Tripplehorn, Amanda Seyfried, Chloë Sevigny, Ginnifer Goodwin, Branka Katic, Harry Dean Stanton and Douglas Smith from creators Mark V. Olsen and Will Scheffer. Read our “Big Love” season-three review here!
