Polygamy looks fun
Seriously, TLC has put together a pretty rosy picture of polygamy. There was not a prairie dress or child bride to be found.
The only thing I did not really care for was the douchy husband, Cody.
I think he is as smug and slimy as Bill Henrickson.
But Matt is so level-headed and sweet, I think we could make a go of it without him getting all big-headed or growing boy band hair.
So assuming Matt is game, I have picked out my sister wives:
1-- Lorelai Glimore.
I think we could have fun drinking over-sized mugs of coffee and making obscure pop-culture references while folding laundry. I hope she is still friends with Sookie (though I think that Sookie may have her very own show now-- so she may not have time to hang out with us).
2-- Kristin Wiig. She is just so damn funny and since we probably won't be able to afford to go out, we will need her around for some entertainment.
I promise I will only make her do that Lawrence Welk singing-sister act once a day. They did not really touch on it in the TLC show, but according to Big Love, the first wife is the Boss!
3-- and since we are going to be having a lot of fun, talking smack and laughing, we will probably need someone that can cook.
I thought about Paula Dean, but I don't think Matt would go for that.
I thought about Giada.
But then I got worried that she might be too sexy and stir up jealousy issues with me and Lorelai and Kristin. Besides, she strikes me as a Nicky-style trouble maker and honestly, who has time for that?
And Rachel Ray is out of the question for obvious reasons.
(That being that I want to punch her in the face every time that she opens her damn trap).
I just realized that celebrity chefs are all super annoying.
I am out of ideas. Any suggestions???
In all seriousness, if given the choice between the polygamist (Browns) and the quiverfull (Duggars), I would go with the polygamists.
The Duggars scare the crap out of me.

So funny. I just posted on FB that I want Angelina to be my Sister Wife.
Seriously, I was totally impressed with the family. These aren't the creepy Warren Jeffs polygamists. They all seem genuinely happy, normal, and well adjusted.
Now, if I can just figure out if they live near me.
Me too - polygamy over quiverfull.
How about Carla Hall or Jennifer Carroll from Top Chef?? She could kick a little ass and cook!
Or it COULD be a man???
Eric Ripert?
Anthony Bourdain?
Both? ;)
Kristina-- you must be a very secure woman!
Lisa-- I don't watch Top Chef so I dont know but I do think that throwing an extra man in the mix is an excellent idea.
Too funny! Think about it thoug:someone to help with the cleaning and dishes, a pal to cook dinner with, gossip with another while folding laundry, friends to hang out with all day- what's not to love???
This is funny. I am glad that you and I see eye to eye about Rachel Ray. :)
This post is AWESOME! I watched it last night too! Let's create Sister Husbands!
I watched it, too, and it appears to be okay; but, did you see the real looks of the ladies when hubby plans on bringing in a 4th? At least, they have their own space, but then HE'S got to show up the spread the love... but, between the polygamists and the quiverfulls, I'd go with the polygamists...
HILARIOUS!
I want Martha Stewart to cook and decorate and clean...but not talk to me!
I think I'd just like to be married to Lorelai. And Sookie would be fun, too.
The Duggars creep me out so much - but I am enthralled. Not enough to watch the show, because that would be dangerous for my psyche, but enough so that I know what they are up to. With that fertile, fertile womb.
paris hilton. you'd constantly be astounded and never have a shortage of feeling really great about yourself.
We carpooling moms joke about this all the time. All you need is a firefighter husband - ie he cooks, cleans, good in medical emergencies, and a good balance of ladies. We decided one wife should be a teetotaller so that we could sit at home drinking wine.(we never said we had to be Mormon!)
We need a good accountant type, a summer camp chef, a creative (for school projects) and a hoot (for entertainment). We have put a lot of thought into this.
If it were many husbands I'd say Anthony Bourdain (he could drink wine too), The Extreme Makeover guy (handy and full of energy), Daniel Sunjata (Franco) from Rescue Me, and a good looking Warren Buffet type so we'd all be rich.
See, so simple:)
Very funny! I'm glad I stumbled on your blog because I forgot to DVR that show and I will be tuning in next week for sure. I love the idea of coming up with your own list of sister wives! Can't wait for Big Love to start!
I don't know what I thought about that show. But like a car crash--I couldn't look away. I guess you are right, they did paint a rosey picture. Except, I wouldn't want any sister wives--although your list is quite compelling--I would want more hubs-- Sicko I know--but what can I tell you!!!
In that case I'd take
Pierce Bronson--for the mechanics
Dolph Lundgren--just to look at
Jose Andres--to whip up a nice meal
Gilles Marini--cause gosh darn I beat he'd make a fine hubs in the bedroom! LOL...ohhhh said too much--hahaha
