It's been such a long wait for the third season of Big Love. Thanks to the writers' strike, the HBO drama won't return till January — almost 18 months after it was last on TV.
But there are finally some real signs that we're getting close to the premiere, including the first couple of promos that HBO's rolled out over the past week or so.

While Paul Rudd hosted SNL this weekend, Justin Timberlake almost stole the show with his two hilarious appearances — check out his no pants dance moves after the jump. For the after party, the cast and friends headed to Dos Caminos to celebrate a successful show at the end of a long week of rehearsals. Jennifer Aniston joined in the fun, perhaps JT invited Mr.

HBO was kind enough to fill the Big Love-sized hole in my heart with a recap video a few weeks back. But if you'd rather catch up on the show's first two seasons the old-fashioned way, it will be possible starting tonight.
HBO2 will air one episode from the series in order for the next 24 Saturdays, starting at 8 p.m.

This "Big Love in Four Minutes" video HBO just put together makes me a little sad, because it's still going to be a long, long wait to see the show's third season. Thanks to the writers' strike, the series — which should have been on right now — won't be seen again till January 2009.
The good news is, that should give anyone who hasn't seen the first two seasons of the drama plenty of time to get caught up the old-fashioned way, by renting DVDs or checking out episodes On Demand.

Hooray for "Big Love"! HBO's polygamy drama will return for a third season — as many installments as Bill Henrickson has wives.
The show hasn't exactly had an easy year this year, holding down the fort for HBO alone on Monday nights. 
While I was searching for those "Big Love" back story clips last week, I came across a couple of hysterical fake commercials HBO produced to promote the show's second season. Like the commercials for cremation shakers and fake skin in the first episode of "Six Feet Under," these false ads promote products that would make your life as a polygamist better.
The first, for "Eau de Polygamie," promotes a fragrance that will let you "set yourself apart from all his other wives."
You guys were so excited about yesterday's "Big Love" back story clip that I decided to go see if the others were online. Good news: I've got 'em!
In the "Five Years Ago" clip, Barb — rocking a seriously bad mom 'do — visits Nicki in the hospital, and Nicki freaks out that Bill is going to expect her to have child after child forever. 
One of the first things I wondered when I started catching up on "Big Love" was how the Henrickson family came to be. Luckily, HBO is answering some of my questions with a series of three clips following the family's back story.
I first stumbled upon the clips when I checked out the series through Comcast's On Demand service, but at least one of them is online, and it's a doozy: Bill brings Margene home for the first time as the new babysitter, but Nicki sees through the ruse and realizes Bill's eyeing a new wife.
America's favorite TV family of polygamists is back on HBO for their second season. Tell me: Are you watching "Big Love" this summer?
While we're all still mulling Sunday's season finale of "The Sopranos," there's another buzzworthy HBO show set to make its return tonight: the Bill Paxton polygamy drama "Big Love."
I've just started getting caught up on the first season of this show, which centers on Paxton as a Utah businessman who seems shockingly normal for a guy who has three wives living in three separate houses. Already, I love the way the show mixes its unconventional setup with the very commonplace problems of raising children, succeeding at work and living a standard suburban life. The show seemed to gain momentum throughout its first year, and I'm excited to see what the producers have in store for us this season.
