'Big Love's' big subject: polygamy

NEW YORK (AP) -- There are so many ways to view "Big Love."
Seen one way, it's a domestic comedy distorted by a lens that fleshes out one housewife into three.
Seen another, it's a male dream in full flower: one man presiding over three attractive women, each of whose beds he shares according to the schedule his wives draft at the dining room table.
"Three days can seem like such an eternity," sighs Margene, Bill Henrickson's newest and youngest, when her night comes around.
"Honey, I miss you, too," he consoles her. "If I don't say so, it's 'cause I don't want Nicki and Barb to think I miss them any less."
Or could this be a male nightmare: regimented bed-hopping, propelled by Viagra?
Hard to say. "Big Love," HBO's brash new drama series (premiering Sunday at 10 p.m. EST), is tricky to sum up.
