‘Cashmere Mafia’ Has the Looks But Not the Lines

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.
