As United States of Tara passes over the midway point of the season things are pretty good, relatively speaking. Max is getting his band together, Tara isn’t going crazy all, and Kate commuter friend opens up to her. But we know it won’t last forever and there are many hints in the episode that everything will go terribly wrong, culminating with Tara’s college alter cutting herself.
There is a lingering question of where the series will go from here. Since Hattaras is stops treatment, is there a medical solution? There is heavy implication that Max had another kid to help cope with Tara, and he seems to realize that. Will he stay indefinitely? Lots of questions are swirling and the season still has a ways to go.
Score: 9.0/10
