Hit Series from Marc Cherry and Eva Longoria to Return with 13 All-New Episodes in 2015
It’s been a Devious two years at Lifetime and the network is set to get even more Devious in 2015. Lifetime has renewed its hit series Devious Maids (#DeviousMaids, #DeviousArmy) for a third season, placing a 13-episode order for the program executive produced by Marc Cherry and Eva Longoria, and starring Ana Ortiz, Dania Ramírez, Roselyn Sánchez, Edy Ganem, Judy Reyes and Susan Lucci. Produced by ABC Studios, Devious Maids will return next year. The announcement was made today by Rob Sharenow, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Lifetime.
“We are thrilled to be bringing Devious Maids back for another season. Marc Cherry has created a uniquely twisted world that blends his comic wit with devilishly ingenious characters and plot twists,” said Sharenow.
Season two of Devious Maids, which concluded July 13th, fueled Lifetime to be the number one cable network in its Sunday 10-11pm time period with Total Females, Women 18+, Women 25-54 and Women 18-49. In its freshman season, the series was Lifetime’s fastest-growing drama ever.

“Parenthood” begins it’s farewell season tonight. As much as the show drives me bonkers and I constantly wonder why I watch it, I will be sad to see it go!

“Grey’s Anatomy” returns to TV tonight. My schedule this fall is whacky and I’m working more nights than usual. I’m trying to keep up with premiere week and not fall behind! I hope to get a bunch of posts up over the next few days with my thoughts on these shows. Until then feel free to comment on them in these posts.

Will Rayna choose Deacon or Luke? Spoilers for the first few episodes of the season below after the jump. There is also info on exciting guest stars, the beginning of Derek Hough’s (ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars”) run on the show, and details to get some free songs from the premiere season 3 episode.
Holy crap! What was with that finale for “Under The Dome” last night? We sure as hell better get a season 3, or at least a 2-part 2-hour movie to close this show out after that. Let’s discuss!
So Big Jim finally, after all this time, just lost it. Thanks to Lyle going nuts and stabbing Pauline, he was sent overboard. He killed Lyle. That I was okay with, Lyle should have died long ago. Long story short, Pauline was pretty much a goner and they had just discovered a time sensitive way out of the dome. Jim was doing everything he could to save her, even though her brother Sam said she likely wouldn’t make it. Pauline begged Rebecca to overdose her as she knew she was going to die, the dome showed her. Rebecca did, which was the end for her. Jim went insane and killed Rebecca. Man, I had just started to like her too! Then he went and killed Hoyt’s Mama from “True Blood” and tried to kill Julia. He was on a mission to make the dome pay, or give him back Pauline.
Meanwhile under the old egg crater the kids found a passage way, another cavern, and butterflies returned to apparently show them the way. Pauline, before she died, said the dome chose Julia and another man to save this town, though she didn’t see his face. Julia was sure this man was Barbie. I was immediately skeptical because that seemed too easy. However Barbie led the whole town down there, which by the way suddenly seemed like a lot less people than before. Did 3/4 of the town die in the cold frost? Julia and Jr. got trapped behind by an earthquake and a chasm. Barbie swore he’d return for her. Big Jim was shot by Jr, but it wasn’t a fatal wound, so he still on the side with them and crazed.
Barbie led everyone to a dead end, but led by a butterfly his hand print opened a secret passage. So perhaps he is who the dome spoke of? I’m not convinced yet. The rock wall opened to a blue light where Melanie reappeared, after she had disappeared into the crater a few episodes ago. She said “I am going to lead us home.”
Riiiiggghhhhtttt! Why do I have the feeling Melanie is not taking them to their home, but the dome’s home? Or the creators of the dome’s home. They are going to end up someplace even worse I’m sure. Meanwhile Jr and Julia are stuck in the ever-collapsing dome with Big Jim. I have to say at this point there is no way they can try and redeem his character again. So I guess Rebecca’s death was not in vein. Hopefully we will see the end of Big Jim finally.
Tell me your thoughts! Where does the blue light lead?
I can’t believe premiere weeks are finally here. Fox and CBS are first out of the gate this week, with ABC also premiering some of their new and returning shows too. NBC has “The Voice” starting.
I HATE adding new shows to the blog, mainly as they always end up canceled. I am looking forward to “Gotham” on Fox though, and “Forever” on ABC, both which premiere Monday night.
However “Sleepy Hollow” is also back, and the spoilers for the Season 2 Premiere are below!
WAR HAS BEEN HERE ALL ALONG… ON THE SEASON TWO PREMIERE OF “SLEEPY HOLLOW” MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, ON FOX
Picking up immediately after the spellbinding events of the Season One finale, Ichabod finds himself buried alive in a coffin; Abbie is trapped in purgatory; Ichabod’s wife, Katrina, has been kidnapped by the Headless Horseman; Capt. Frank Irving is behind bars for a murder he did not commit; and Abbie’s sister, Jenny, is among the wreckage of a horrific car crash. These events were due, in large part, to the shocking revelation that Henry Parish, the trusted friend of Ichabod and Abbie, is actually Ichabod and Katrina’s son and the Second Horseman of the Apocalypse. Now, with Henry’s emergence as the Horseman of War, alongside the Headless Horseman, Sleepy Hollow has never been so close to destruction in the all-new “This Is War” Season Premiere episode of SLEEPY HOLLOW airing Monday, Sept. 22 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (SLH-201) (TV-14 L, V)
ICHABOD AND ABBIE TRY TO GET A “HEAD” OF THE COMPETITION ON AN ALL-NEW “SLEEPY HOLLOW” MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, ON FOX
Ichabod Crane and Lt. Abbie Mills concoct a daring plan to try to rescue Ichabod’s wife, Katrina, from the Headless Horseman by resurrecting a Frankenstein-like monster created by Benjamin Franklin. Meanwhile, Frank Irving faces new trouble after revealing the true details of his encounter with a demon, and Jenny Mills finds herself at odds with the new sheriff in town in the all-new “The Kindred” episode of SLEEPY HOLLOW airing Monday, Sept. 29 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (SLH-202) (TV-14; L, V)
There are only two episodes left this season for “Under The Dome.” It seems as of late the dome is throwing all sorts of disasters at the town. Last week was an arctic blast, this week it seems the dome is shrinking. I hope Julia is no over that theory of hers that the dome is there to protect them. I think the dome is pissed that they lost the egg.
As I suspected it appears Melanie is Barbie’s older sister, well now younger sister. However her life is in peril as the testing the men on the outside are doing on the egg are killing her. I’m now torn. I have come to like Melanie, but still want Angie back. I do still think if she or another hand dies that Angie will return.
I can’t believe the show did such a 180 with Rebecca’s character that I actually like her now and don’t want to see anything bad happen to her. I’m still waiting for Big Jim to get his, but I’m sure that won’t happen until the actual final episode. The show needs a villain after all.
Last week I kept wondering why Barbie didn’t risk it and try and carry Julia to the diner the entire time. Clearly they made it in the end, so why waste all that time in the ambulance?
I never did read the book, which I bought last year, so I’m still actually clueless on the egg and what the heck it actually is. I guess I’m still going with aliens, though perhaps it has something to do with creation? It causes plagues, natural disasters and brings the dead back. Hmmmmm, yeah I’m going with creation. It is an egg after all.
Spoilers for the final two episodes of the season below!
A lot has been going on with the witches since I last posted. This post is just my thoughts on the stories, with spoilers for the next few episodes at the end.
So it’s getting harder and harder to keep liking Fredrick, given what he’s been up to. We’ve learned that the king’s spirit is inside of him, and he’s trying to basically give him a new body to take over. That’s what all the ritual killings were about, along with the Mandragora. Freddy didn’t like killing people to try and find a vessel for grandpa, so he had the Mandragora doing it. I suspected earlier that he may be possessed by grandpa, but this is more of a Harry Potter like Quirrel twist they have going on. I believe they even mentioned the king being sick and crazy at one point. Perhaps he actually died? If so this really is just like Harry Potter. Interestingly in the latest episode it seems he killed his girlfriend to give grandpa a new body. Looks like grandpa will now be grandma? I hope they find a way to make me like Fredrick again.
Wendy was forced to give up her boyfriend Tommy when he saw her shift. Joanna wanted her to erase his memory and never see him again, for their protection as much as his. If other witches found out about him, they’d kill him to protect themselves. However she couldn’t do it. Tommy is trying to be okay with her, and I really hope things work out for them. They are super cute together.
We found out that Killian’s wife has spelled him to get a baby out of him. It is unclear why she needs this. We know she seems to be forever young, as her grandmother who lives with them is actually her daughter. Do kids keep her young, or something else? I’m thinking she’s immortal, but her daughter is not, and they are trying to do a soul transfer. She unfortunately is keeping him under her spell, though he keeps breaking out of it. Poor Freya thought they finally had a chance to be together, until he returned to Ava!
Finally Ingrid and Dash got together, but she soon learned all the bad things he’s been up to and walked out on him. Uh oh! Looks like Ingrid could be in danger again from obsessive-Dash.

John Rhys-Davies (“The Lord of the Rings,” “Raiders of the Lost Ark”) Voices the Grand Pabbie
Giancarlo Esposito Guest Stars as Sidney/Magic Mirror
Master storytellers Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz (“Lost,” “Tron: Legacy”) invite everyone to join Emma Swan, Snow White, Prince Charming, The Evil Queen, Hook and all the other resident fairytale characters as they prepare to defend themselves against a magical force from the past that’s too unpredictable even for Rumplestiltskin – Elsa, the Ice Queen from Arendelle. And now that Emma has brought back Robin Hood’s wife, Marian, and possibly sparked the end of Regina’s relationship with him, will Regina return to her old, evil ways and do everything in her power to get even? And newlyweds Belle and Rumplestiltskin continue to be deeply in love with each other. But Rumple is hiding a secret from Belle — one that, if found out, could destroy their happiness – he continues to be the master of the dagger that calls upon him to be the Dark One. Can Emma and Hook commit to one another, and can these two damaged people take their love to the next level? Mary Margaret and David have a new baby, Prince Neal, and are looking forward to raising him into a proud, brave and loving adult. But they are still sad that they were not able to do this with Emma, instead helping her escape the curse when she was first born and not meeting her again until she was 28 years old. Henry is very happy to have both of his mothers back in Storybrooke. But with biological mom Emma and paternal grandfather Rumplestiltskin’s blood running through his veins, he will be tested by both the light and the darkness. Finally, Will Scarlet (Michael Socha, “Once Upon a Time in Wonderland”), a former member of Robin Hood’s band of Merry Men, has traveled across many lands to make his way to Storybrooke. He finds himself intertwined in the goings-on in town for the first time as his mysterious past pushes him to an unknown future.
In the season premiere episode, “A Tale of Two Sisters,” a scared and confused Elsa finds herself in Storybrooke and, fearful of the intentions of its residents, creates a powerful snow monster for protection. With Robin Hood’s wife, Marian, back in the picture, Regina wonders if her “happily ever after” with the former thief has been completely quashed; while on their honeymoon, Mr. Gold finds an intriguing object that makes him question whether or not he should officially give Belle control over the dagger that makes him The Dark One, and Hook is dismayed to discover that Emma seems to be avoiding him while she tries to help comfort Regina after being the one responsible for bringing Marian back from the past and into Storybrooke. Meanwhile, in Arendelle of the past, as Elsa’s sister Anna’s wedding to Kristoff nears, Anna discovers that their parents – who died on-ship during a violent storm – were heading to a mysterious destination in a quest that may have held the secret to containing Elsa’s out of control Ice powers. And against Elsa’s wishes, Anna wants to finish their journey to find out what they were looking for, on “Once Upon a Time,” SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 28 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.
