My neice has a small part that will be aired in October. My neice is a senior in high school. I am surprised by how much foul language and nudity is in it. Well acted and I understand now how someone who is stage 4 will try anything. I'm cheering for the clinical trial to help her. I'm also glad it deals with how the spouse, family members and others are affected. And, the need to feel normal even though nothing about having C is normal......

    The Big C
    I LOVE that show! I've seen every episode. Let us know closer to the time exactly when your niece will be on. How did she get the part? That is so exciting.

    My husband and I have seen every episode. It's so funny and very raw. Would like to see how the main character Cathy deals with losing her hair.

    Last night's
    episode about her husband losing his job was very well done. Cathy is such a likeable person who is going through every emotion that is typical of cancer victims. I love the fact that they have dealt with family reactions, jobs, clinical trials, etc. It is a very thought out program. I do laugh or smile often. It is raw at times but well acted. Since Cathy is a teacher my guess is that my niece's part is probably at the school setting. She will be a senior in high school in the fall.
