You mean to get it carried on CBS? You will need to give them the CBC link then, maybe it is on the website.

I also have just finished watching the 1st series called United States of Tara. I banned that show from my experience when I first heard about it being a comedy (it's got some funny bits) but it is not a comedy. When I first started watching it, the bleeped out swearing put me off at first, not b/c of the bleep but b/c there seemed to be so much swearing, even though I swear and have, at times, sworn a lot.
Anyways, once I got passed my (self)editor I did watch it. As a matter of fact it was on last night for four hours and I watched the whole damn thing over, in one sitting. it's pretty true to real, in my opinion, and makes lots of social commentary but I am wondering what the 2nd series will have to say...like is there a conclusion or what? 'Cause I sure know my life is going on and on, not like H. Stanton, in this movie documentary, she's gone .
They, the TV show and film, are just two different ways of expressing how it is and they are both valid, trying to break the stigma and shame and yet showing it how it is, sort of.
In my/our case the husband got very sick, when our children were very small, unlike Tara's husband who is still there (the kids are teens). But, in his own way, our husband is very amazing too, even though he has become abusive toward us (due to his own illness).
H. Stanton has left behind this legacy, though, to show us all that there is a way through the 'bad stuff' and we owe her a great deal.
One has to become kind of spiritual or Philosophical about things, at times and give it away, as it all becomes too much and so may she rest in peace and those around her be comforted.
