This is Not Big Love or TLC's Sister Wives
If you follow polygamy across multiple shows you will recognize the community and two couples from Lisa Ling's Our America.These polygamist do not live in multiple homes, nor do they maintain multiple immediate families. Instead all the families featured on this show seem to incorporate all of their marriages into one gigantic family. If your looking for information, a sort of unbiased viewpoint of living polygamy where the WOMEN have the power... then this is the show for you. I hope that this shows continues on Nat Geo for years to come.
Intriguing
As a follower of polygamy in the news in recent years, I was more than a little excited to see another show about it. Especially a show filmed inside Centennial Park. It's easy to be repulsed and say, "I could NEVER share my husband!" But the families in Centennial Park offer an inside view concerning the how's and why's. Maybe if I had been born into it, or it had been discussed before I got married, polygamy might have been a lifestyle choice for me. I certainly hope to see/learn more about Centennial Park, and watch how these families grow and change. I hope next season will see Rose Marie's marriage, and the Thomsons taking a new wife, and Ezra finding his path, and hopefully some common ground with his dad.

:) Polygamy controlled by of age women who could not love it. If I weren't so prone to jealousy I might give it a try myself without all the religion and stuff though.
