There was never nearly enough great roles for women for many film and TV seasons. But HBO’s exceptional series “Big Little Lies” is among the few exceptions that prove the desultory rule.

At Season 1’s final fade, the women find themselves fatefully embroiled in the shocking death of Celeste’s husband, Perry . It’s no wonder residents of their quaint California beach town began calling them the Monterey 5 after the “incident.”A lot, actually.

In Season 2, keeping the femmes fatales on their toes is the arrival of Perry’s distraught mom Mary Louise, who’s made even more formidable by the legendary actress portraying her: Meryl Streep.If you think Meryl is out to steal every scene she’s in with vein-popping bravado, you’ll be very surprised. The 69-year-old actress, who will become a septuagenarian on June 22, shows how to vanish into a role without show-stopping histrionics or noisy caterwauling.

While the quintet tries hard to keep their wits about them, it doesn’t help that the guilt-stricken Bonnie is unable to get her act together. She has become detached and uncommunicative, even six months after the events in the Season 1 finale. If Ed has become cruel and spiteful, Renata finds herself in deeper trouble: Her husband Gordon has been hauled off to prison for security fraud—and she realizes that she’s gone bankrupt!
