Well not exactly. I just started watching The Riches yesterday and noticed it has some pretty big things in common with Big Love, at least in my opinion. Both families in Big Love and the Riches are hiding (or trying to hide) their true identities from their neighbors, coworkers, etc . Also with Big Love, it shares a very large extended family that won't let them escape their origins. They keep appearing in their new lives and this threatens to reveal who they really are.
Dexter also comes to mind when thinking about hiding someones true identity.
What are you going to watch this summer?
I've never seen either of these shows, but my co-worker is obsessed with Big Love, which I like to say in deep sexy manly voice. I will not be watching any TV this summer as I do not own one, but I will probably watch a lot of movies. 3 I really want to see are Gone Baby Gone, No Country for Old Men, and American Gangster.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite way to watch tv shows is dvd actually! That's how I watched Big Love and how I'm watching The Riches. They are both pretty interesting.
ReplyDeleteI've only seen No Country for Old Man, I felt like I was holding my breathe the entire time I was watching it, it was pretty intense and freaky!Definitely an experience.
