Pride has become the prime story on Big Love, without a doubt - and it's sort of getting in my way. As interested as I am in the many relationships on the show, I'm disturbed to see Bill Hendrickson nonsensically slap his huge mug on billboards across his city, begging for a high profile and all the baggage that comes with it.

Keeping his secret does not need to conflict with his overflowing ambition, but Big Love is going out of its way to make it so. Though Bill may well navigate the family out of its latest crises, it's getting to the point where I'm rooting for Bill to get a major comeuppance.
