Big Love 4Premiere date: Wednesday 19, May 2010 at 21h30
Polygamist Bill Henrickson, his three wives and nine children return for a new season of Big (too much!) Love.
As the new season opens, a maelstrom of personal issues swirl around him: Bill launches yet another business venture aimed at diversifying his assets: a Mormon-friendly casino he planned last season with Native-American partners.
At the same time, and more surprisingly, Bill eschews a chance to seize the Prophet mantle at Juniper Creek (made available by the apparent demise of Roman Grant) in favour of an even more high-profile calling: running for State Senate in Utah.
Why would a polygamist want to expose himself and his family by running for public office? The answer to that question, and many others, will be addressed in the season.

As Haplin’s mysteries are revealed, many of its prominent citizens’ motives come under scrutiny as their own secrets and personalities are peeled back one layer at a time.
