"The Big C" was a fantastic show that will be missed. Laura Linney plays a cancer patient trying to deal with the fact that she is going to die from her type, Melanoma. She has a husband, played by Oliver Platt, that will do anything for her. There son, Adam, played by Gabriel Basso, is a teenager trying to deal with school, girls, and the fact that his dying mother works at the high school he goes to. They also take care of a girl named Andrea, played by Gabourey Sidibe. Also, her brother, played by John Benjamin Hickey, stops by from time to time. She is a woman that is dealt with this terrible disease and tries to do everything she wants to do before she is gone.
Laura Linney is spectacular on this show. She has received an Emmy for this year's season mainly because she is such a strong and powerful woman being portrayed on this show. Oliver Platt also, such a great actor that does fantastic on this show because of how loyal he is to her, when they are together. Gabriel Basso and Gabourey Sidibe are assets to this show because they are great up and coming actors and they have a great buddy-buddy relationship on this show. John Benjamin Hickey is a great supporting actor for this show also because he is hilarious and he really brings the story to a great big turn to help the story line even better. Unfortunately just ended but it will be missed.
