Devious Maids Season 1-2 General Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

Devious Maids Season 1-2 General Discussion Thread (Spoilers)


Devious Maids Premieres on Lifetime on June 23, 2013



Lifetime will premiere its highly-anticipated new drama "Devious Maids," executive produced by Marc Cherry ("Desperate Housewives") and Eva Longoria ("Desperate Housewives"), on Sunday, June 23, at 10PM ET/PT. The ensemble all-star cast, Ana Ortiz ("Ugly Betty"), Dania Ramirez ("Entourage"), Roselyn Sánchez ("Without a Trace"), Edy Ganem ("Livin’ Loud") and Judy Reyes ("Scrubs"), portray five maids with ambition and dreams of their own while working for the rich and famous in Beverly Hills.

In "Devious Maids," murder and mayhem collide in the mansions of Beverly Hills’ wealthiest and most powerful families. Class warfare has never been as fun and dirty as it is in the tony enclave where the staff is as clever, witty, outrageous and downright devilish as their employers. Whoever holds the dirt holds the power, and before the season is over, illicit affairs will be revealed and deep dark secrets exposed as we learn the sordid details behind a shocking murder of a beloved housemaid.

The series centers on a close-knit group of maids who are bonded together by their jobs, life struggles and the melodramatic "upstairs-downstairs" universe that engulfs their employers. Rosie (Ramirez), a widow who left her son back in Mexico when her husband died, works as the maid and nanny for a pair of self-absorbed and successful actors, Peri and Spence Westmore (Mariana Klaveno, "True Blood," and Grant Show, "Swing Town"). Aspiring singer Carmen (Sánchez), hopes that her pop star employer Alejandro (Matt Cedeño, "Days of Our Lives") can help jump-start her career, but Odessa (Melinda Paige Hamilton, "Mad Men"), his very loyal housekeeper and her boss, will stop at nothing to stand in her way. Zoila (Reyes) is the senior maid for Genevieve Delatour (Susan Lucci, "All My Children"), a codependent, emotionally unstable wealthy woman. She works alongside her teen daughter Valentina (Ganem), who has a crush on Genevieve's handsome son, Remi (Drew Van Acker, " Pretty Little Liars").

In the series premiere, the women turn to one another for support when their friend and fellow maid Flora (Paula Garces, "CSI Miami") is brutally murdered at the home of her employers, Evelyn and Adrian Powell (Rebecca Wisocky, "American Horror Story," and Tom Irwin, "Grey’s Anatomy"), at one of the largest society events of the year. Meanwhile, newcomer Marisol (Ortiz) is hired to clean the home of Taylor and Michael Stappord (Brianna Brown, "Homeland," and Brett Cullen, "Damages"), a newlywed couple with a complicated love history. But Marisol has ulterior motives and when someone she loves becomes wrapped up in Flora’s murder, she goes undercover to learn the truth.

Inspired by the hit telenovela, "Ellas son...la Alegría del Hogar," "Devious Maids" is produced by ABC Studios. The series was created by Marc Cherry ("Desperate Housewives") and is executive produced by Cherry, Sabrina Wind ("Desperate Housewives"), Eva Longoria ("Desperate Housewives"), Paul McGuigan ("Scandal"), Larry Shuman ("Kissing Miranda"), David Lonner, John Mass and Televisa USA’s Paul Presburger and Michael Garcia.

1x01 Pilot

How callous complaining about who's going the clean up the blood after the maids murder but Marisol offering to clean the crime scene was interesting and Carmen trying to get friendly with Alejandro was amusing but the baby supposable saying momma was priceless along with the house keeper falling down the stairs

Carmen taking advantage of Odessa and Alejando being out of the house was amusing and Rosie walking in on Peri with her lover was priceless, Zoila spoiling Valentina's plans to get closer to Remi was understandable

1x03 Wiping Away the Past

Trust them to knock over the apples while trying to hide in the supermarket but with a comment like that she should of stuffed an apple in her mouth just like a pig and the cucumber reference to Spencer's manhood was amusing, Adrian setting up his friends with hookers is bizarre but it wouldn't surprise me if he has it recorded for future manipulation

1x04 Making Your Bed

Alejandro allowing Carmen to be a guest at a party was amusing and Marisol finding the pregnancy test and who the coroner is was interesting as the autopsy had been altered, how she got him out of his trousers was clever but you knew he would try in on and setting the curtains on fire was priceless

1x05 Taking Out the Trash

Spencer wife not realising the open marriage was for his benefit and not her was amusing until her lover set her straight but how conceited she is thinking he should be lucky to have her and Valentina fighting with Remi's new girlfriend was amusing

1x06 Walking the Dog

Genevieve thinking it's the end of the world was crazy and all because she was having financial troubles after her business manager took all her money, looks like Carmen is jealous of Sam's new girlfriend but the dog on the bed was a little evil and Spencer's heart attack bringing his wife to her senses may just ruined Rosie relationship with him

1x07 Taking a Message

Rosie sex texting was amusing and that was a close call when a former student recognizes Marisol almost blowing her cover, that has to be the most expensive machine was ever and the probable wont be clean after using $6,000 worth of cocaine mistaken for washing powder

1x08 Missing the Baby

He had to be blind to think Genevieve was only 39 years old but the diner conversation was amusing and Marisol catching Taylor making out on the counter was priceless, you would think Odessa would appreciates Carmen covering for her
