So “The Client List” ended season 2 with a huge cliff hanger. This post is more about sharing my thoughts about the finale, and season 2 as a whole. It was one of those two-hour two-episode back to back finales, and I can’t cover it all with a recap without leaving out a bunch of details.

I definitely felt a sophomore slump with the second season. I didn’t dislike it, but it was missing the magic of the first season. I hated that Reilly just dumped Evan all together the minute Kyle came back, and that she took him back. Though Kyle and Evan are now very close to finding out the truth about Riley and “The Rub” so she may lose them both.

Having Nikki betray Riley the way she did for her scumbag ex who was after the list really annoyed me. Even though she did help Riley in the end to get it back, her flip-flopping with loyalties pissed me off.

Riley attempted to save her hide and Georgia’s by burning down The Rub and framing Nikki’s ex-boss and the scum trying to get his hands on the client list. Georgia had the insurance policy so they’d both be able to walk away wealthy . . . . Unfortunately everything blew up in her face. Evan, on a stake-out, caught her on video at the other guy’s club. Fortunately she was off camera when she broke into his safe and stole his gun and the list. However both Evan and Kyle caught her outside the rub as it was burning down . . . with the scum inside who she knocked out and left to die! Uh oh . . . . She never counted on him showing up, she just wanted to leave his gun and frame him for the fire.

Speaking of dead, I have a feeling the jerk may have killed Nikki before he headed to The Rub. If so, that may be Riley’s saving grace and get her out of this. He killed Nikki and then came after her. Of course she’ll have to come up with a story, and explain why she was at his club and on the surveillance tape. I’m sure it will all have to do with helping Nikki out.

I loved Selena this season, she was less of a bitch and more of a team player. Loved her and the cowboy, but she had to go and screw everything up with him in the final episode by dumping him and calling off their relationship. Why Selena why!?!?!? I get that she has a history of not trusting men, but I was really sad by her actions. Poor cowboy was left heartbroken!

Lacey and her husband finally got a baby through adoption, so I’m happy for them.

Lynette told Riley and Lacey that now that she was clean, she was going to move to Texas to open a salon with her friend. Noooooo! We can’t lose Lynette! Maybe Cybil has a new pilot in the works or something? They left it as she’d be visiting a lot though.

Next week starts “Drop Dead Diva” and “Devious Maids.” I’m looking forward to both shows!
