The Client List Renewed . . . As Well As Army Wives?

The Client List Renewed . . . As Well As Army Wives?

Yesterday the news broke that Lifetime had renewed its freshman drama “The Client List” staring Jennifer Love Hewitt.

Nothing was stated about “Army Wives,” so a curious fan asked Brian McNamara (Gen Holden) on Twitter. Brian replied that season 7 looks to be a go! His official response to the fan was . . . “at least 10 more eps for season 7” via @TwoGems57

So it’s a much shorter season so far (which this one has been as well), but it looks like Army Wives Season 7 is a go!

A Smorgasbord Of Show Thoughts!

A Smorgasbord Of Show Thoughts!

I have fallen so behind because of other things, so this is a giant post of quick thoughts on many shows!

On the latest “Grimm” we learned a whole lot about what is going on. The Grimm had, supposedly, been working with a class of purist “royal” monsters that the police Chief apparently seems to be a part of. While this class had traditionally been only in Europe, they’ve clearly branched out. It seems they are dedicated to not only causing problems in the world, but keeping the humans and the monsters separate. An underground revolution movement is in place, but Nick was warned in this episode a war was coming that would forever tip the balance. What we still don’t know is which side the captain is on! He seems to be playing both sides at the moment? I am hoping he is on the side of good, maybe I’m hoping too much?

On “Smash,” Ivy weaseled her way back into the play, hoping to take over from Uma Thurman’s clearly flop of a character. However by the end of the latest episode, the “star” shone! Which of course makes Ivy’s job of getting the role back a little more difficult. Just an episode ago, I thought Ivy and Karen were getting along so well. Now she’s back to being a royal diva b….. Oh and Tom got dumped by his republican boyfriend because he had gaga eyes for Ivy’s gay “straight” bff. Other thoughts . . . What is Nick’s secret? (The guy Eileen likes). And will Dev cheat on Karen with that co-worker?

I am still watching “Awake” believe it or not. At this point I’m starting to wonder . . . is this all in his head? Is he laying in a coma somewhere, the real victim of the car accident? How will this all end?

“The Client List” is only 2 episodes in, but I am liking it. I see it’s moving to a one client only focused episode, where Melinda . . . I mean, what’s her name, helps some ghost . . . I mean lonely man solve the problem haunting him.

I absolutely LOVED the disco episode of “Glee.” OMG, Unique! Unique needs to join the Glee club at McKinley high for next season. So far Unique has been the best one yet from the “Project Glee” characters.

Finally I watched the first three episodes of “The Big C” online for the season. I was shocked that Paul lived, but happy. For the first several minutes of the premier I was sure Paul was a ghost, but he’s not. He’s real. Then there is Andrea, who has changed her name to Ababoo. I love her so much! However I am getting this feeling she’s now in love with Shawn . . . not good!

The Client List Premiers

The Client List Premiers

So Lifetime’s new show “The Client List” premiered this sunday after “Army Wives” and apparently pulled in huge ratings for the network. I guess we can assume they have another hit?

The series is based on a Lifetime Movie, which I’m afraid to say that I never saw. After watching the show, I now want to see it. The show stars Jennifer Love Hewitt as Texas mom and wife. Her husband has been out of work, and on a friend’s suggestion she applies to work at a massage parlor run by Loretta Devine (“Grey’s Anatomy’s” Adele). She soon learns it offer’s “extras” to some special clients on a special list. When her husband up and just leaves her, Jennifer’s character is faced with losing everything. She then begins doing the extras to make ends meet. The very end of the pilot, when she thought she had things going in a positive direction (well financially at least). . . her missing husband calls.

I did like the show. I’m not sure where in the hell they will take the story, but I liked it. It became clear something began to bubble up with her brother-in-law during the episode, who felt bad that his low life brother left her. He also suspected her job but not be on the up-n-up as well.

I enjoyed it enough that I plan to keep tuning in. I also plan to FINALLY add “Drop Dead Diva” to my show list on the blog this summer when it begins. I’ve been watching it, I just never had time to comment on it before.
