Big Love
Big Love Season 2
Big Love Season 3
From creators Mark V. Olsen and Will Scheffer comes Big Love , the story of a man, Bill Henrickson, living in Salt Lake City with his three wives, three houses, and three families. As if normal family life isn’t enough trouble, Bill Henrickson ( Bill Paxton , Twister , Thunderbirds ) has… More everything in triple: three wives, three houses, three families. Bill’s first and only legal wife is Barb ( Jeanne Tripplehorn , Word of Honor ) but he also shares the bedroom with middle wife Nicki ( Chloe Sevigny , Boys Don’t Cry , Dogville ) and youngest wife Margene ( Ginnifer Goodwin , Ed , Mona Lisa Smile ). Bill also has three new adjoining houses, seven kids, and a booming hardware business. His closest friend and business partner at Home Plus, Don Embry ( Joel McKinnon Miller ), is also a polygamist.
The series kicks in as Bill receives troublesome news about his father Frank ( Bruce Dern , Last Man Standing ), who lives in rural Utah in a fundamentalist community lead by Bill’s father-in-law, the menacing “Prophet” Roman Grant ( Harry Dean Stanton , Wild at Heart , The Green Mile ). Bill’s younger brother Joey ( Shawn Doyle , The Eleventh Hour ) was once a star athlete in the NFL, but is now getting used to living in the compound with his wife Wanda ( Melora Walters , Magnolia , The Butterfly Effect ). Bill’s mother Lois ( Grace Zabriskie , Twin Peaks , Fried Green Tomatoes ) is a descendant to the original founder of the Juniper Creek compound, and is still bitter for Roman Grant’s hostile takeover for the leadership. Daveigh Chase ( The Ring , Lilo & Stitch ) plays Roman’s latest wife, the child-bride Rhonda. Rounding out the cast are Amanda Seyfried ( Veronica Mars , As the World Turns ) as Bill and Barb’s oldest daughter Sarah, Douglas Smith ( Citizen Duane ) as Ben, the adoring son, and Jolean Wejbe as Tancy, the precocious 8-year-old. The series is executive produced by creators Mark V. Olsen ( Easter ) and Will Scheffer ( Easter ), Oscar-winning actor Tom Hanks , and Gary Goetzman ( Band of Brothers , The Polar Express ).
