It started to get good when the "affair" started imo. And I don't think it is at all fictional. There was some blurb at the end of the first show stating that there are an estimated 40,000 practicing polygamists today.

Also, there is plenty of mocking of the mormon church, not just the mormon "faith". The whole plot line with Margie's neighbor, especially this last episode when they try to set her up with the creepy mormon guy. "I think I had a revelation last night, DEEP IN MY BOSOM!"

I lol'd.

Do they count each wife in that 40,000 number or just per husband?
