United States of Tara has become a show about the entire family and not just Tara. While Tara's problems are probably the most severe, because there is something wrong in her brain, everyone else in the family is struggling to find their identity and decide who they want to be. Tara's new alter, Shoshana, offers everyone an outlet to state their feelings, and so far, Max has taken up the offer. He can't deal with Tara anymore, and after venting his anger on Sully, ends up in jail. When Tara doesn't even show up to bail him out, having hit hit a sign, he can't be feeling better about the situation. Kate is amused at their family's situation until reality hits her. They're in deep shit.
I hate Neil, so I see no appeal from him. Charmaine, however, loves Neil and after discovering that her baby is actually Neil's, admits that she wants Nick for wedding photos and Neil for wedding night. Good luck!
The Valhalla Hawkwind video is actually on Youtube and it's a hilarious mixture surrealism and pure pleasure.
Score: 9.0/10
