I think it's on TLC. Anyone watching?

I watched an episode last season but couldn't get into it. The wives whined and cried too much. The same with Sister Wives.

I don't watch those types of shows. I find it repulsive.

We watched the whole way through the episode when it began a week ago; let's just say the DVR is not scheduled to record anymore.

They should change the title to "My Life with 5 Whiny Women". They seem to always have something to complain about, yet willingly entered into this type of life.

I'm still wondering why a woman would desire this kind of relationship and how it's different from a 1960s commune.

Maybe these 5 wives can hook up with the sister wives to have a Whine and Cheese party.

I watched and thought it was very boring. Not a lot going on in the households. I find it depressing and lacks any real plotline.

Nope. No interest. I saw the previews and didn't feel the need to see any more.

Didn't watch it. I've only watched little bits at a time of Sister Wives aka ""whining about the choice we made Wives"". Most guys I know say one wife is MORE than enough. I am sure the wives feel the same. I wouldn't want 5 husbands!

I saw enough to hear them say their grocery bill is $4000 a month. 24 children, 6 adults. He owns a construction business with his brother.

I think they seem unhappier and more disconnected (the women) than the Brown's do on Sister Wives. The Browns seem happy in comparison. These wives spend all their time on camera complaining about sharing a husband and not spending enough time with him.

Ive been watching and let me say that it was absolutely ridiculous when I heard one wife say they each get a $200 allowance but Thanksgiving shopping was so expensive and "thank goodness Brady pays for it" Well why wouldnt he pay for it?! Those are all his kids!!

Also, 1 kid was going to do some karate thing and the mom and kid were hoping the dad can make it, but they know its just so hard to be at all the functions with so many kids... Well then maybe thats why you shouldnt have so many children!

Then you have 1 wife who has 4 kids and wants to adopt one. So word gets out and now 2 of the other wives wanna know if they can have babies now too cause shes getting one... Thats basically what that was. It was like a competition.

Look, I know people have their beliefs but thats just no way to live. You shouldnt have to wait 5 days until you can spend time with your husband on your night.

Yes I am watching and it is far different from Sister Wives show with Cody and wives. The show seems a bit more honest about the feelings of the women and how they feel about certain subjects. The one wife who seems so angry and the DH got into one heck of a scream fest this past week...wowza it was loud! There are 5 wives and 24 children... 2 wives want more children... even though this means the DH will have to work longer and harder hours and see less of everyone...including the children they have NOW. Each wife has 4-6 children...what are they thinking??? The women once again do not seem particularly close and there are jealousy issues.

So, in this situations there is no divorce? You just walk away unless you are the first and only legal wife or have child support issues. Any discussions on state welfare currently, like food stamps?

I would never watch a show like that.

A. The man in these circumstances is a narcissistic control freak

and B. The women are idiots who make all women look stupid.

They can brag how wonderful their lives are till the cows come home. I find them all repulsive!

Gross.

That may have been the idea of traditional marriage but i don't see the appeal to people who find same seck marriage so repulsive.
