What makes it different from others?

good back-story, and good acting

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

Kody's ego is so big that you can only enjoy the hubris if you feed it. I would feel sorry for the wives and kids if I didn't believe they were actually taking advantage of the gravy train that allows their affluence to be displayed as necessity.In all of the episodes, their value statements and their re-creation of God to suit their own purposes, they are insulated and do not appear concerned with anyone else but themselves. Their righteous is so self-serving. Their lives are built around money and ego. Their self-absorption is not good for the kids - they can make their own choices for themselves.It's a big world - lots of needs, lots of diversity, lots of real problems. This family does not live in this world.

It took me at least one season of shows to make the leap from feeling disgusted to being as accepting of the Brown Family as they are of each other and the rest of us, too. I think that there are many life and marital lessons to be learned by watching the Browns and I wish I had been exposed to them before getting married myself. I'd have saved myself a world of heartache.The women are strong and determined, each in her own right. Kody is upbeat, accommodating, respectful, and capable of making very tough decisions in the best interest of the family.The family members are completely open and accepting of freedom of choice when it comes to religion, sexual orientation, lives, and life styles. I appreciate their acceptance - which is different from tolerance - of others.I have become very fond of this family and appreciate that they put themselves out there as they have. I have read comments of people discussing same sex marriage and write, "the next thing will be polygamy." If that means choosing the life modeled by the Browns, I say live and let live and make it legal. This is a healthy, loving, united family which serves as a great model for all of us, and if we all lived by their moral standards and convictions, the world would be a much better place.

I have been watching this reality show since it started. For those who claim they are breaking the law. All I can suggest is that you watch the very first episode. Kody is technically only LEGALLY married to Meri, and then he has a private ceremony (which does NOT include anything legal) in which he marries the other wives. The sister wives give one another claddagh rings, but that is a private thing between the wives. As well, that Kody is in relationships with grown women NOT children. Their lives, more closely follow POLYAMORY than polygamy. This is my opinion. I find much comfort in their lives because I myself live a POLYAMORUS lifestyle. The man in our lives is amazing as is the other woman in my life.

I think the Brown family are very courageous. They have just as much right as anyone else to practice their religion and live the lifestyle of their choosing. No one has the right to judge them and they should be able to live their life how they want to without people trying to bring negativity into their lives. They are not bothering anyone with their lifestyle so why is it such a big deal. If you do not agree with it then do not watch the show. It is only gods right to judge, so some people need to practice what they preach. The Brown family love each other unconditionally and they accept others without judgment. I think this family is very brave for putting their story out there in hopes of opening up possibilities for others that are in their community that are afraid to go public with the same lifestyle. I can honestly say It is hard these days to practice anything or raise a family the way you want to without being judged from ignorant people. So I admire the Brown family for trying to keep the love and positivity alive in their family in addition to standing up for their beliefs and values despite all the criticism and narrow minded people that come along.
