Mistresses - Coming To BBCAmerica
added by newsBotMistresses premieres this Friday at 9pm on BBCAmerica, and it might just what the night's lineup was looking for. A smart, sophisticated drama full of quirks and rich characters, Mistresses is odd enough to hook you and well-written enough to keep you coming back for more. Katie p/c Ecosse Films The story centers around four friends with one glaring commonality, infidelity. The plot develops as a play on microcosmic metaphor for the general "friends as family" world in which we now live. Think Desperate Housewives, but with less focus on dramtic spins that arise to bounce around watercoolers, and far more exploration of legitimately detailed and complicated characters. The show stars four well-known British actresses in an interesting amalgam of character directions. Katie (Sarah Parrish) is a respected doctor, and to some degree or another she is the leader of the group of friends. Assuming of course that groups of friends have leaders.

"She was just so hard in the beginning," Torv told reporters. "I loved that. I loved the beginning of that. I loved that she was just so self-righteous, so harsh, like 'I don’t want you' and then inevitably ending up having her heart kind of broken.
