The War for Love and Power A Review of Bride Wars

Family is a battlefield, where love and power are constantly at war. This age-old truth is brought to life in the television series "Bride Wars," a 40-episode epic that chronicles the lives of three generations of women as they navigate their complex relationships with one another.

A Family Divided

At its core, "Bride Wars" is a story about family. It's about the intricate web of relationships that bind us together, even when we don't want them to.
