Witches of East End

Is anyone watching? Because if there was ever a female focussed show that managed to be more than just about romance, this is it, in all it's sisterly dynamics, mother-daughter tribulations, magic with consequences glory.

I'd write more of a post, but it doesn't seem worth it if no-one is watching, though I might touch on it again later with regards to things it makes me think about.

I am really enjoying the show. I can't really find anyone else who is watching it either though.

Jumps ship... or is that Jumps broomstick? ;)

I'll be sure to check it out when I can.

I haven't heard of it, but now I want to see it from your description. On Demand has episodes 7-9 - if I pick up there will I be able to follow what's happening?

It's such a cute show, isn't it? I mean, obviously it has dark and creepy bits, but on the whole, it's sweet. I am a bit behind, though. I've only seen through 1x07. I imagine it doesn't have a huge audience because it airs on a cable channel here in the States. And not one of the more popular cable channels, at that. I also imagine it took some hits because most of the leads are women and audiences tend to not like that much. But witches! And family! And complicated relationships between women as the focus of the show!

I've never heard of it, but now that I've read your description, I definitely want to start watching :) I'll definitely try when I have a little time!

I wasn't watching, but that makes me want to do so.
