http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2008/01/07/CASHMERE-MAFIA----Premiere-Episode.aspx Well the holiday season is officially over, and with the New Year comes a bumper crop of new TV shows. Personally, I&rsquo;m always a little weary of the &ldquo;mid-season&rdquo; replacements, (are they even calling them that anymore)? If there wasn&rsquo;t enough excitement surrounding them to roll them out in the beginning of the fall season, than why should I waste my time on them now? That being said, this season is a little different, thanks to the continuing writer&rsquo;s strike. Don&rsquo;t get me wrong, I love my reality TV, but the fate of my favorite scripted shows are hanging in the balance and in many cases they won&rsquo;t be back until next Fall. For that reason, I&rsquo;m keeping my fingers crossed for some of these late comers. en-US Critics Rant headersrock@yahoo.com Subtext Version 1.9.4.0 http://www.criticsrant.com/images/default_gravatar_bullhorn.png http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2008/01/07/CASHMERE-MAFIA----Premiere-Episode.aspx 77 60 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2008/01/07/CASHMERE-MAFIA----Premiere-Episode.aspx#2759 something kinda different. brokun1 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2008/01/07/CASHMERE-MAFIA----Premiere-Episode.aspx#2759 Tue, 08 Jan 2008 04:51:42 GMT http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2008/01/07/CASHMERE-MAFIA----Premiere-Episode.aspx#3025 My friends and I loved this show, and so what if it was not realistic, that is what TV is all about... its there to take off the stress from the day and let you delve into another world! Plus it is Zoe with the two kids, and nanny search not Juliet Trackstar1 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2008/01/07/CASHMERE-MAFIA----Premiere-Episode.aspx#3025 Sun, 02 Mar 2008 21:12:35 GMT http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2008/01/07/CASHMERE-MAFIA----Premiere-Episode.aspx#3032 You want to talk about realistic: Carrie Bradshaw lives in a large studio in the middle of manhatten, goes out to swanky nightclubs and buys manolo blahniks like they're a dime a dozen. All of which she pays for by writing one 3 paragraph editorial every week. <br /><br />At least these ladies have real jobs, which we actually see them do intermittently. This show isn't all about sex, or they would have called it "Sex Mafia". It's about 4 power-chicks with power jobs. So don't be disappointed that it's not Sex and the City Part 2.... it's not supposed to be.
