TLC, Sundays at 9 Capitalizing on the success of its hit series `Sister Wives', TLC focuses on the journeys of three unique families in various phases of polygamous relationships. Cameras capture the intimate process of men seeking, dating or incorporating a new wife into their family structure and the myriad triumphs, frustrations and heartaches associated with the emotional changes. Of course, with multiple husbands, wives and 20-plus children residing between the households, drama-filled days are inevitable. But these families are determined to open their hearts and homes to new wives, even if a few growing pains are felt along the way. Attachments:

Anyone watching? I binge watched the last season and I think I am keeping up with this season. At times I can't stop watching, it has some appalling fascination. Some articles out there provide more details about these families. TLC doesn't provide much background.

So interesting!!! April was the wife who was very disliked by the other two wives. And she did seem like a very disagreeable person to live with. I'm not surprised that she left the family, but there's a right way and a wrong way to do that. And by 'kidnapping' her children, taking them out of the state, and not communicating with the rest of the family --- definitely the wrong way to do it. I sure hope they can find some compromise that will be comfortable for everyone in the family, but most especially for the poor children who were ripped away from their father, their siblings, their other 'moms' and their home!!!

I wonder why Jeff, Vanessa and Sharis Alldredge flew to Niagara Falls to meet Jennifer, when it seems more logical that they would have flown her to meet them at their home. That would give the opportunity for Jennifer to see the home she'd be living in, meet the children, and become familiarized with the community. It cost a lot more for the three Alldredges to go to Niagara Falls than it would have cost for Jennifer coming to them.
Dimitri Snowden seems far too interested in having another wife (or more) to satisfy his sexual needs. I don't have the feeling he's in it for the right reason. I find it overtly obvious as to his intentions. If I were his wife Ashley, I'd be concerned about bringing in another woman.
If the campers/new renters Paige and Bernie McGee want to bring in a second wife, it would make more sense for them to rent a 4-bedroom house now so the two children and two women would have their own rooms, since they seem intent on each boy having his own room. I assume they had to sign a 1-year lease on the new home they're in, so they're stuck there for awhile.
The Winders, who are now exposing themselves to the community after hiding their relationship up to now, seem so silly to me in their actions. Why would anyone suspect they're polygamous just by having a kid's birthday party in a park? To me, they would look like an ordinary husband, wife and sister/aunt/relative/neighbor enjoying an outdoor activity. They all seem so immature compared to the other families in this series.
I'm not surprised that April Briney left the family featured on the first season of this show. The women definitely did not get along well.

I get the shivers when I watch all of these people. Which brings up the question....WHY AM I WATCHING?

Ok so question did anyone mention that Vanessa is an actress because she's an actress my best friend just found a YouTube video of hers.

Vannessa is an actress? HM Interesting! Mr. Snowden admitted on the last show that they have a nanny. So, Mrs. Snowden is not just looking for another mother figure for her children. I thought that was her main reason for seeking a sister wife. I know what Mr. Snowden's reason is.

Most definitely. That was evident last season.

So I'm starting to think it's all staged now with the Snowden's I don't mind Vanessa being an actress but why don't they say so. She can act in Atlanta especially if helping with the kids aren't an issue.

For once I would like to see a show where a woman seeks "brother-husbands."

A couple interesting tidbits. Mostly that Aspyn Brown (as in Cody and Christine's daughter) is engaged to Vanessa Alldrededge's brother, Mitch.

So, the Snowdens all move to California. Mr. and Mrs. Snowden decide that Vannessa is a keeper and they can go forward with intimacy. But wait! Before all that happens, Vannessa has to go on a 21 day PH diet to ensure her PH is in balance, thus preventing any infections from being shared. Grossed out yet?
If they're being so careful about sexual health, why don't they all get tested for HIV and STDs? This would make more sense.

In my entire life, I've never heard anything about pH balances, in general or in a sexual context.

Reading that comment she wrote about that fan's child has convinced me that she's trash. Who says that about a kid with Down's?

Yikes. Those are the two that creep me out the most on the show. And their sons are a little odd as well. The whole family gives me the heebie jeebies.

Now I KNOW Vanessa is an actress. In the last episode, she had to keep a straight face while she sat on a potty getting her hoo ha steam cleaned.

I was actually at much I enjoyed the Snowdens wedding. I'm in the middle of watching the reunion show right now. If they do this show again I really hope Paige and Bernie are not on it. I can't stand either of them.

Oh my gosh...getting to the end of the reunion when Brandy tells Paige that she and Bernie made out in the backyard. This is actually entertaining for once. I'm cracking up at the rest of the families that are watching it all go down from another room. Bernie is in some hot water.

But ultimately it's the children that are going to suffer the most. They seemed really close to her. People really need to be 100% sure before making this choice.

Paige is never going to be ready for a sister wife. Girl needs to give up what she "feels they are being called to do." She's not sister wife material.

Vanessa made the right decision you should not have to change yourself completely to fit with your soulmate. Watching the wedding she looked like a mini Ashley marrying Dimitri instead of Vanessa marrying Dimitri and Joining Ashley in sisterhood. The Snowden's will never find someone permanent unless they allow that individual to bring to the whole.

Being an actress, Vanessa may never had the right intentions when joining the Snowdens. Most of us, if not all, had never heard of Vanessa before this show. Now, she is far better known which may open doors for her in the acting business. It seems that if one comes from a polygamous background, it's easier to live that lifestyle than it is for someone with no polygamous experience. I know I could never be part of that. I've enjoyed watching this series, but always felt there was something a bit "off" with all of them personality-wise.
