@theawecabinet of course it is - they love to incorporate double talk in any of their pieces. United (pulled together) States (way of being) - assuming she has multiple states integrated into one host. See Pseudo Occult Media - United States of Dissociation on google. ;)
OK sorry my ignorance. I've never heard of this TV show before and I watched this clip with the sound down. I didn't realise it was actually (openly) about DID. I just assumed it was another Desperate Housewives type of show.
I do read POM but must have missed that article (the one about this show). Thanks 4 link.
So I guess we have MK portrayed here as mere DID - a natural, wholesome, 'fun' condition. (no disrespect meant to people with DID).
I wonder- a bit of a personal question for those with DID. How do relationships work? Since you're all such different people as this show portrays it... Is it considered cheating? What happens just in general?
Seems to be a great show *.* They will also show it in Germany next week - but in the early morning at 2 am. WTF? T.T I'm so jealous. I love Toni Colette - and of course - Tara :) <3
@JanBee1122 This show is far from a parody, and in fact explores the difficulties of the person with DID and their family and loved ones. Just because there are comedic scenes, they are not playing the 'oh look, now she's some other personality' switch as a gimmick, and a great deal of the scenes where she transitions are the most dramatic of the show. I'd advise you to watch a couple episodes rather than judging the treatment of DID based on an advertisment
Multiple Personality (DID) can only be created via horrific abuse and trauma whereby the mind is fractured into different personas. It is not a topic to be parodied. So what's next? A comedy about the child-porn ring? Maybe we can get superstar Dakota Fanning to play the child sex abuse victim, then we can laugh and laugh and laugh! Or better yet, let's make up a sit-com about the Holocaust and have all the characters sitting around sipping tea and playing gin rummy.
@Apo023 No I haven't, I'm just basing my remarks on the way this video portrays DID in the show. It looks like a comedy to me. The way they have her spinning around on the merry-go-round in her different characters sure looks like it's all done in jest. Am I wrong?
@JanBee1122 i wouldn't say this is a comedy...it does have it's funny moments like real life does...i mean, if you can't laugh to your own misfortune you gona go mad, loco, insane...so i would say that in this show it is more laughing with her not at her..
@Apo023 Well I guess that's one way of looking at it. I have studied DID a little bit and personally don't see it as a misfortune to be laughed at. People who have this mental illness get it as the result of the mind fracturing into different alters as the result of unbelievable abuse perpetrated upon them by others. It is not an affliction one is born with. To make fun, even sympathetically, of someone who has been through something like that is completely inappropriate imo.
@JanBee1122 Actually I (& co). were born with it, we don't regard it as an affliction, and this show offends the crap out of us. John (See our videos)
One thing. She was raped and it caused her personalities. Also, she never laughs at what she does as a different person. This is an independent show(which means it's a mixture with every genre.)
@roxinovak Well, when they make a comedy showing your mother or sister being raped or something along that line and you can still laugh and tell others, like me, to chill out...that's when I'll settle down. There is no justification for making a show about a real affliction that is created through horrific abuse and making it cute or even remotely funny. It is contrived to belittle and make fun of those who suffer from this, and I wouldn't hesitate to say, the "makers" are also the "doers".
i don't get how people think it's weird when they have the same name wit a title of a show.. what's so weird about that? i mean it's ur entire name that would be a bit weird.. but not entirely..
@ReklawRemix it's very funny, u know how fast her personality could change it's like one minute she's Tara and one minute she's the slutty T and suddenly change into Alice.. lol
@iamspunkransom it happened in the last couple episodes of season one. she was telling her psychologist about how she was seeing them sort of. like alice was there when she was cooking and she was helping her with ingredients:)
When I first saw the show I kind of hated Toni Collette as Tara, but after a few episodes I was like...I don't think anyone else could play the role except for her.
Holy smothers, just when I thought this show couldn't get any better! Seriously, Toni Collete is such an underrated actress. She is finally getting some recognition, but I still feel like she deserves more. Maybe it's just because I love her so much. Anyway, this show is awesome. I can't wait!!!
Does anybody know if Tara has a new alter besides Gimme? I see her wearing sunglasses and the ankle high pants, but, they also have Tara in her original self also in the same picture! just wondering!
Hmmm thanks for the info, I hope there is another new alter besides Gimme, a cooler, relaxed version of Tara would be an interesting alter I think! That's why I was wondering, it looked like Tara if she was taking heavy relaxers lol
They didn't mention a "new alter" with the "behind the scenes" look with the new season. idk. That would seem crazy when they havent even introduce GiMMe much. Look for the "behind the scenes"
Toni Collette is a fantastic actress, she murders every role on this show. I don't think the Oscars give awards to TV actresses though haha, she did win the Emmy and the Golden Globe.
