Thread: United States of Tara (Showtime)

A quirky little show, as most are under the Showtime umberella, depicts Tara, a wife and mother played by Toni Collette of "Muriels Wedding" / "About a boy" with multiple personalities living as 'normal' life as one can while married to Max (John Corbett - Aidan Shaw in Sex in the City). I watched 3 eps today and must say i like the fresh story and the way they handle what must in reality be a very difficult illness to live with.

This show doesnt lean on the morbid side of things, indeed it brings out the humorous aspects/advantages of how the illness can work if the person is surrounded with the right level of care and support. Great character work, good performances, and i believe a show with promise. Clever title too.

Most definately worth a check out, post what you think ;)



Thanks for not saying thanks, rep this up instead to keep this thread clean and nice to read ;)

Looks like another cheesy and non funny showtime comedy.
