Polyandry TV Show on TLC

[Ostrich]

Sharing for visibility. TLC is airing a new reality series (yeah, I know, define 'reality') which covers polyandry.
Here is the trailer https://www.tvinsider.com/1076063/seeking-brother-husband-tlc-trailer-video/

At the :36 and :40 marks really hit home for me. I might watch and see how cringe worthy it is. Also, I used to follow one of the ladies on social media, so will be interesting to see how things worked out for her.

If this post is in the wrong topic area, please feel free to move it.

is it bad that just the name of this show turns me off? I'm also not a fan of reality tv tho. thanks for sharing; it is cool that stuff like this is being put out there. here's to hoping it doesn't encourage an even worse stigma against polyandry/polyamory lol

It's good that there's going to be something out there about polyandry -- as there's already a good bit about polygyny. I guess the next step would be a show about group marriage (both multiple men and multiple women).

I'm indifferent to the name of the show, I assume they're just trying to create a matching set with "Seeking Sister Wife."

Group marriage, no matter the gender configuration, is a rare form of poly. I wish there were more media representations of the most common type of poly - a loose network of individual (1:1) relationships.
