How can you not love Margene?


She was probably one of the nicest people on this show And Nikki and sometimes Barb would treat her like crap. I especially remember whe she told Bill how she was 16 when they got married and Nikki told her that she ruined Christmas, I felt so bad for her!

I liked Margene in the beginning but as the seasons went on she got on my nerves more and more until I basically wanted her to disappear into the bowels of Juniper Creek.

The second honeymoon, the seventh night off business, the way she continually dumped her kids on Sarah and Ben, the way she tried to blame Barb more than Bill for her being underage saying that Barb was the one who procured her or whateverTF----OMG she pissed me off at times!

I also wanted her to disappear or get hit by a bus, whatever was easiest. She was so annoying! On to her stupidity,calling Barb gross when she pointed out the conclusions ppl would come to watching Marg and Ben the way the behaved...you mean the conclusions anyone with eyes would draw. Oh and so co-dependent among other things. When Nikki had her do Teeny's costume and Marg couldn't even do that, first thing Barb said was "Margene can't handle these little things". Amen Barb. It was the Margene Show as Nikki said,Marg couldn't have been needier if she tried. Crying because there is a vote to add another wife and there were multiple votes in her case. UGH, that is just the tip of the ice burg, I don't care how nice she is because it doesn't change anything.

She was annoying.

I liked her at the beginning of the show but later on, it seemed ridiculous to talk about doing "missionary work" on that ship when she already had three very young children and was happy to dump them on her "sister wives" to wander off arounding the world helping the poor! Ridiculous. Was rather disappointed in how her character was written in the last two series.

I loved her. Very earnest and genuine person. Definitely my favorite wife.

I wasn't surprised a bit when she was younger than suspected. She was an immature selfish brat from the beginning. The neediness was annoying as hell.

Her character was more mainstream than the other wives. They had a background in the church, but Margene was more nearly normal, like most of us.
