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.
The finale itself, even though run over two hours, felt incredibly rushed. Breakups, exes returning, divorce proceedings, sex tapes, lesbian babies, drinking....just too much! The first hour though I found more entertaining than the second.
So Zoe quit her job. It's so Lynette Huffman in Desperate Housewives, the power mummy quits her time consuming job after missing a promotion and becomes the power mummy at home, but its working. Plus more Zoe screen time means more yummy hubby screen time!
The break-up between the lesbian mommies was bound to happen. If I remember correctly, I picked it last week! Didn't see the ex coming back on the scene though, and as much as I like Caitlin, her breakup scene was un-believable. I didn't really think that she was that into Alicia for her to break down in tears when the relationship ended and the whole fashion week storyline....gag. Talk about a filler topic! Did anyone else hear the Rogue Traders playing during the fashion show? Natalie Bassingthwaite REALLY is everywhere!
There was also a first tonight, Juliet made me laugh. Her first meeting with the divorce lawyers was quite entertaining, to the point where a few giggles came out though I'm pretty sure thats when the brain leaking issue began, though scenes involving the billionaire were contrived and painfully boring. Apparently, Juliet can see dollar signs over looks.
Mia, mia mia mia mia mamma mia.....You would have thought that a smart girl like Mia would have known that the ex hubby to be, was only back on the scene when he got a big boys job like hers, and not really wanting to get back together for old times sake, and getting back to filler story lines, whats with the dog?! It did evoke a funny line about Chinese families and pets though.
Overall, after a slow and shaky start, Cashmere Mafia did settle nicely into my weekly viewing habits, and will probably be missed until it returns with a new season. It was Sex and the City, without the sex and well...quite a bit of the city, it did aim high, and while it didn't reach it's potential, it did come close and over time, could reach it's aim.
