A new show will premiere this Sunday on ABC, “Cashmere Mafia”,
which tends to be a very shallow copy of so dearly missed “Sex and the City.”
The show was created by the same person who was behind the
HBO hit, Darren Star, mercurynews.com said.
The plot of the show evolves around four sexy, powerful
women who happen to live, where else than the Big Apple, New York City.
The four gal pals are Mia (Lucy Liu), Juliet (Miranda Otto),
Zoe (Frances O'Connor) and Caitlin (Bonnie Somerville).
Mia is freshly engaged about to be married, but she has long
way to happiness as she and her fiancée are battling for the same position in
the publishing field and neither one is about to give up.
Zoe is an investment banker, married with children and
apparently happy.
Juliet is the chief operating officer of a major hotel chain
who finds out that her husband is cheating on her and Caitlin, a top marketing
executive for a cosmetics firm who decides to go gay and starts a relationship
with her co-worker.
Even though the “Cashmere Mafia” has its moments of intrigue
something is still missing. Lines and plot are too predictable.
The actresses give their best and we all know them from
previous works, like Lucy Liu in “Ally McBeal,” but the characters are shallow
and are not endowed with the same humor and witty as the gals from “Sex and the
City.”
“Cashmere Mafia” will run at 10 p.m. Wednesdays after
Sunday’s premiere.
