This was one series I was waiting to return for it second season. Something about the whole show makes you feel kind of strange, yet good all at the same time. It’s not coming back without controversy however…

As “Big Love” enters a second season on Monday, the HBO series about a fictional polygamous family is inspiring emotions from pride to fury among real polygamists where the show is set in a Salt Lake City suburb.

“There’s a certain truth to it,” said Anne Wilde, a 71-year-old widow who was part of a family of plural wives for 33 years.

“Here’s a family of three wives that lives in the community and they just blend into the neighborhood, although they don’t say too much about it.”

But Wilde said she blocks her eyes when scenes get intimate and bridles at the show’s trademark sexual tension, saying it’s too racy for many of the estimated 37,000 fundamentalist Mormons who practice polygamy in Utah and Arizona.

Well, I don’t care about all the fuss. It’s still a cool show with an interesting subject matter.
