Tara Gregson (Toni Collette) is a mid-30s mother of two with Dissociative Identity Disorder. After Tara takes a break from her meds to discover the cause, three of her alters resurface: Buck, a male alter who likes the firing range and claims to have lost his member in 'Nam; Alice, a 1950s housewife who claims to have attended Radcliffe at Harvard; and T, a pot-smoking, flirty teenager who likes maxing out Tara's credit cards.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })United States of Tara is an American Dramedy that explores the effect DID can have on a family. That family in this case includes her husband, Max; her daughter, Kate, and son, Marshall, all three of whom have problems of their own. Max has more patience than Job, Kate's going through that awkward time known as the teenage years and Marshall has to deal with being an openly gay 14-year-old (and Buck being the manliest of men).The series was created by Diablo Cody and executive produced by Steven Spielberg. It ran for three seasons (2009—11) on Showtime. | |

Actor Allusion | |
| United States of Tara / int_392372f9 | comment |
Actor Allusion: Kate pretending to be French Canadian and using the Gratuitous French "Bon chance" as a minor catchphrase reflects that her actress Brie Larson's family is French Canadian and she grew up speaking French. | |

All Girls Want Bad Boys: Kate's first shown boyfriend Ben is a Goth/Wapanese and an abusive douchebag. The latter boyfriends aren't all that much better. | |

All Gays are Promiscuous | |
| United States of Tara / int_fed441ad | comment |
All Gays are Promiscuous: Every male gay character has at least some experimentation in the past or present with drugs and sex. Even little Marshall gets a whiff of cocaine, threesomes and trying to dip a toe in anonymous public sex spots, where he runs into his gay neighbor whose boyfriend left him in a coke-induced mid-life crisis. | |
