Cashmere Mafia - Season Finale

So channel Nine gave us the season finale in a straight up two hour viewing to which I discovered that two hours of this show is just too much for me to handle in one sitting. I think my brain started to leak out of my ears after the hour and a half mark.

So, let's have a look at the finale and the season that was Cashmere Mafia Season 1

Cashmere Mafia - Episode Four

Thank-god the Easter break is over and regular scheduled television is back on! My first port of call - tonights episode of Cashmere Mafia.

Episode four and the girls are finding themselves spending less and less time together and more and more time ruining their personal lives with silly choices that seemed forced and only put in to push the girls into new story lines

Desperate Housewives - Welcoming Back Old Neighbours

I'm a stickler for a good tv show that has elements of comedy and drama. That make me laugh and want to know whats going to happen next week, who's doing what and who's doing who. Melrose Place used to do it for me (and is again thanks to it's release on DVD) but now it's Desperate Housewives that I can't miss.

I think most people will agree that since the first season finale, the show took a bit of a down turn during seasons two and three. Whilst they weren't bad, they lacked the finesse that was season one, but I still tuned in week after week catching up with the ladies of Wisteria Lane

So You Think You Can Dance - Putting the fusing in confusing

I really didn't want to post about a reality television program that searches for Australia's best dancer, but as I am a watcher of the program, there was this compulsion to say something about tonights episode.

Firstly, Mary Murphy....as much as she is loud and in your face enthusiastic, she really did bring a much needed boost to the judges table this week. She made some interesting comments, in which is part of the reason behind this post

Cashmere Mafia - Episode Two

"Lesbians are the new babies" - Mia Mason on Cashmere Mafia

I will say that episode 2 of Cashmere Mafia was a lot better than the pilot (Though most shows tend to be like that) but I still haven't completely come around since my review of the pilot episode

Nip/Tuck, Tell me what you don't like about yourself.

I had planned on dedicating this post to tonights episode of Cashmere Mafia, but that will come tomorrow night.

Instead, I'm going to talk about Nip/Tuck (airing Mondays @ 10.30pm on Channel 9). First off, shame on channel 9 airing season 3 even though this season has been out on DVD for nearly 6 months now! I can only assume that most fans would have gone out and bought it after channel 9 took it off the air mid-season

The Underrated Television Series

As a somewhat dedicated television viewer, I've found that over the years, my taste in shows have somewhat matured from the easy to laugh at comedies and no-brainer reality shows to smart comedies and thinker dramas.

I talk of such shows as 30 Rock, Arrested Development, Nip/Tuck, Eyes, Boston Legal, The Comeback, Weeds, Dead Like Me and The Sopranos

Television and the Female Characters

I had an interesting conversation this morning, with a friend of mine about all things television which ended up in a friendly debate about female characters in television series. Who we liked, who we hated, who was strong and who brought about change. I thought it would make an interesting post on what ended up being the top 10 female characters that have appeared on television in the last few years.

In no particular order

Cashmere Mafia - Pilot Episode

Being a huge fan of Darren Stars previous jaunts, "Melrose Place" and "Sex and the City", I was chomping at the bit to see Stars new television venture, The hugely anticipated Cashmere Mafia starring Lucy Liu, Miranda Otto, Bonnie Sommerville and Frances O'Connor.

Cashmere Mafia which premiered tonight lacks what it's predecessor (Sex and the City) had...a likable cast. Where SATC's Carrie Bradshaw and the girls were enchanting and bewitching from the onset, Cashmere's femme fatales are badly dressed wannabes who find any excuse to get together for a booze up and gossip session
