Mistresses

ABC's new prime soap is a watch for me because I'm a fan of the sexy Alyssa Milano(I remember her sexy colored bra wearing days on "Charmed"!)it focuses on the life and times of four beautiful California ladies. And the drama of bed hopping, affairs, guilt, regret, and secrets all so far have dominated the series. Savi(the still sexy Milano)is a high class and professional attorney who has a thing for her African American male co partner, and these little sessions can lead to a big secret. And then little sister Josslyn(Jes Macallan)a real estate agent who's a wild free spirit who plays the strange bedfellow games as she swings both ways in the bedroom even liking her fellow female kittens! Then just widowed April(Rochelle Ayees) feels a lot of pain and hurt from her dead husband's affair, and to round out the four is cute Asian Karen(Yunjin Kim)a counselor who's now dead patient and former love interest has a son who's interested in her! Wow it's all drama and complex with love, sex, and guilt, with denial, pain and secrets and a watch for any Alyssa Milano fan she's still hot!

I really like Alyssa Milano and I was hoping this show wasn't just about a bunch of sluts... And it wasn't!

It's actually about relationships and I'm looking forward to next week. I hope the writing stays sharp and the plots stay interesting, and I hope there's not too much gratuitous sex. Please let it stay classy!

I think it was fun and I don't agree with the reviewer who said it sets women back. At all.

I hope the show explores some of the guilt that I imagine would be associated with having an affair. It will make the characters seem identifiable and human.

Please don't cancel this show!

A wonderful escape and not degrading to women at all! Portrays real relationships and life issues that many have and don't want to admit to the world. Funny how many trashy reality shows are popular, yet this sophisticated adult drama is getting scathing reviews. I really think its the title that turns people off, which is a real shame. Please give the show a chance and you might find yourself really enjoying a lovely, fun and captivating escape!

The casting and acting is superb! I'm a happily married stay at home mm for 14 years, joyfully loyal and watching this show feels FABULOUS! Like having a super interesting group of girlfriends with complex yet realistic drama. Thank you for the best and most entertaining show I've seen in a long time! :)

I think that this show was pretty well done. It was the pilot after all, so it was bound to be a bit rocky to begin with, but I don't think that it deserves the bad rap that it has been getting.

One thing that I find frustrating is how so many people seem to think that this show is degrading, setting women back or just a terrible show in general because it shows women being sexual. It may not be with their husbands (I mean it's called Mistresses after all, did no one know what was coming?), but has no one seen Mad Men? Granted it is not on a cable network like AMC as Mad Men is, but I feel that this is a bit of a double standard.

Honestly, I didn't think it was all that racy. I thought it was a different perspective and it has some fun, suspenseful moments and I am interested in seeing them play out.

I am really finding it to be fast moving, a bit of drama and fun in places - no long dragged out scenes or shots. I like the 4 stories happening at the same time - shows everyone has their own issues and yet the 4 girls can come together and socialize and discuss each others. I don't think its just for women as I am a male and find a women's point of view and desires, interesting. I love the great clothes worn by the females and each of the 4 is attractive in a different way. I don't agree that the acting is below standard on the whole it may be so for a couple of characters but its no worse than a typical US TV show. It may be that the Australian husband of the lawyer woman (forget her name) sounds strange to the US market.
