United States of Tara is about Tara and her family.. and well the other sides of Tara. Tara has multiple personality disorder and along with her family she has decided to drop her meds as they make her drowsy and basically not herself. This of cause means that the personalities show up every now and then... so lets meet T, Alice and Buck. Tara's main sharers. T is a 16 year old horny teenager which only Tara's teenage girl find kinda fun as she can go shopping with her. Alice is a 30's housewife who is going for being perfect. And Buck well Buck likes to kick ass when Tara wont do it herself. All the personalities has a purpose, a way of protecting Tara. But family life isn't all that easy when half the time you can't remember what you have done or been saying.
I Love Toni Collette for making this. First of like wow the talent. Its one thing to play one character
on a show but to play four right of the start is nothing short of amazing. Anyway the show is funny and enlightening. It takes a fun spin on a psychological disorder an topic that tend to be taboo. All while showing a lot of other subjects that all in all makes a family.
So if you want a fun easy-going show with a pretty good and deserving topic this is one that truly deserve a look. It has a good flow and let you get a glimpse of what this disorder can do to a family.
