Eastwick

It may not have been as edge of your seat as it was last week, but Eastwick still has the magical ability to keep us watching and wanting more. These three girls have yet to bore us with any unoriginal plot lines and their tangle web that they weave is just beginning. 

It is a very very sad world that we will have to live in now that the resident hottie - Chad - is dead. Oh vell - things look like they will most definitely be heating up between Roxie and Darryl now that he is gone. This could be a very good thing - who knows? He sure is hot in that creepy - up to no good - kind of way.

Joanna still has the whole "woe is me" bit playing on...maybe a little too long? I guess she did almost die last week. This week brings a very new and fine young man named Max to take her place at the paper. Dayum! Break me off a piece of that...paging...new couple alert! New couple alert! Who needs four eyes Will when you can have some sexual chocolate?

As for Kat, her new power to heal will most def. come in handy as the season progresses. Maybe with Roxie's old vision of her being killed off by her neighbor Jaime? I see a revolt of the old against the new witches occurring - and so far, it looks like Kat has the strongest powers of all.

Overall, this week proves itself that it can come back to life with the new after such an amazing deathly episode. Don't just take our word for it - if you haven't already watched it, watch it. Then read our recap and tell us what you think!

Never forgetting that humor is important in a dramatic comedy, Eastwick serves it up! Here are a few of our personal favorite quotes from last night's episode.

Darryl: Maybe just maybe - that hammer wasn't just a hammer. | permalink

Penny: It's not the spoon that bends - it's only your self. | permalink

Joanna: I have SAP - Super Awesome Powers. | permalink

Max: (speaking to Joanna) Did you flash him your boobs?! | permalink

From the look of the pictures below for this week's new episode of Eastwick - things are bound to be just as intense as last week.

Chad comes to Roxie in a dream and like with Gus, Mia vows to fulfill his last wish - whatever that may be. (Maybe kill Darryl?!)

After being almost burned to death in a blazing coffin, Joanna gets a taste of her own journalistic medicine as she is hounded by her replacement Max (Jason George).

Kat is taken by surprise by not only her new-found ability, but that Bun's old friend Eleanor has something to do with it. How could a crazy cat lady like Eleanor Rougement be a tie that binds?

You must tune in tomorrow night at 10pm on ABC to find out!

Things really heat up in this week's episode of Eastwick - literally. The annual Halloween event - Eastwick Witch's Field  - brought about many coffin's blazing in a bonfire with all the townspeople dancing around it to Burn Baby Burn... it definitely set the stage for an edge of your seat experience; while also created a certain desire to go disco dancing. 

The entire hour is filled with "poor Joanna" moments - first, she is sitting alone sulking about losing her job - then she comes to find out that her crush kissed her new BFF Kat. Geesh - you would think she would get a break, but no - the Pastor is back and ends up kidnapping her and stuffing her in a coffin that he plans will go up in a blaze at the bonfire. Talk about having a bad day! And she's so pretty too! Pretty people don't deserve bad things happening to them like this!

Luckily for her, Kat is around and has her back! (Even though she is a man stealing friend) With her mother nature influence, Kat is able to put out the fire and save the day! This sheds new light on their friendship and Joanna realizes that maybe it should be chicks before sticks (a.k.a. dicks)..

In the end, Roxie believes that she has the power to stop her visions from coming true. At first, she thinks it is Darryl that she saved, but once Joanna is safe from harm, we all really think Roxie is able to.

The writers of Eastwick are most definitely here to shock you. We still can't believe that one of our favorites ends up dying!! Just as Bun puts it - there is no way to change what is already predetermined..

Penny takes lead with most hilarious quotes in last night's episode "Bonfire and Betrayl" - here are a few of our favorites:

Penny: You've confused me with your musky man smell and made me want to throw you down and eat you like a crumpet and I don't even know what a crumpet is. | permalink

Penny: Please like you've ever tapped anything but yourself lover boy. | permalink

Penny: See I told you not to trust those crazy bitches!
(Joanna gives her a mean stare)
Penny: What?! Too soon? | permalink

It got off to a slow start, but Eastwick is picking up momentum on ABC.

The witch-based drama has abandoned attempts at a grand, moral message and focused on what it should have been all along: a campy, fun soap opera.

What can fans of the series look forward to in the near future? TV Guide posed a few questions about the show to Executive Producer Maggie Friedman. Excerpts from the Q&A follow...

On new abilities: In future episodes, all of our ladies will be expanding their powers into new and surprising realms! We're about to get very, very magical.

On guest star Jerry O'Connell: [His character] is a good man hiding a horrible secret. He's a single father, a widow, with a young son who is a part of this secret. Kat will be drawn to him, and she will be put in danger as a result.

On selling her show: The supernatural element keeps growing every week, and it works on multiple levels — there literally is magic happening on the show, but it's also a metaphor for these characters' lives, which I think are very rich and relatable. Also, we just have so much fun making Eastwick and I think it shows.

Things are about to get spooky in Eastwick during this special Halloween episode.

Because of Roxie's most recent vision - seeing someone she loves dead - she will try to do everything in her powers to keep this from coming true.

Poor Joanna - not only does she lose her job, but she finds out about the kiss between Will and Kat. Obviously guilt stricken, Kat tries to reunite these two. Will it be too little too late? You must tune in tomorrow night at 10pm for this very bewitching hour of Eastwick to find out!

Until then, here are a couple sneak peak photos of this All Hallows Eve episode...

When you're married to Rebecca Romijn, it's understandable you'd want to see her as often as possible.

With that in mind, Jerry O’Connell has booked a multi-episode arc opposite his real-life wife on ABC's Eastwick.

O’Connell will portray Colin, Kat's handsome new neighbor. As viewers of this show might expect, he's hiding a dark, magical secret.

This is actually the third time the couple has worked together on screen.

Two years ago, Romijn guest-starred on O’Connell’s short-lived comedy Carpoolers. Pior to that, O’Connell made a cameo on Ugly Betty.

During a rare celestial event, the moon becomes three times its normal size and in Eastwick, it unleashes a magical power to make the townspeople act wild. Cue Where the Wild Things Are.

Perhaps it is suppose to draw in viewers to the PG version of a TrueBlood orgy - but, when is it a bad thing to see a whole town throw caution to the wind and teepe a tree with toilet paper?

Nothing special really happens for Joanna in this weeks episode, besides her losing her job for the article that she wrote about Darryl, but the other two witches do get a little freaky-deaky!

Kat unleashes her sexy singleness by singing on top of a piano in a very hot little red dress. Amidst the blazing candle flames, it almost looks like she is the temptress from hell - enticing you to come in...which is exactly what Will, Joanna's crush, does by making out with her.  How could you blame him though? Blame it on the ah-ah-ah-alcohol...errr rather the mo-mo-mo-moon.

Roxie's psychic abilities go to full throttle. She is like the superman of psychics. She and Chad go to find Mia and end up doing the dirty dirty behind a building, which lands them in jail. With her powers harnessed she does see something very disturbing - to find out what that is, read our recap of "Mooning and Crooning".

Darryl had some great words of wisdom, below check out some of our favorite quotes from last night's episode:

Darryl: This is not a bucket list. This is a suck-it list. | permalink

Darryl: Would you like some of my duck in your mouth? | permalink

Darryl: This is what I'm talking about. Sharing our feelings, food fights, tickle fights. I just love celebrating with you ladies!
Roxie: Tickle fights?
Darryl: Drink some more wine. | permalink

Darryl: That's one of the really... perplexing things about life, isn't it? Any true pleasure comes with a price. We drink too much, we wake up hung over. We eat too much, we pack on the pounds. You enjoy one moment of lust, and you live a lifetime of guilt. Yeah, what feels good comes with a cost. At the end of the day, it's just a matter of figuring out how much you are willing to pay. | permalink

Darryl Van Horne seems to have it in for Bun Waverly on Eastwick.

But why? What has the Head of the Eastwick Historical Society done to deserve this?

In a new interview with TV Guide Magazine, Veronica Cartwright - who starred in the 1987 movie The Witches of Eastwick - dishe on her character and on the ABC series. A few excerpts:

On Bun: We find out she’s actually a witch, which she doesn’t know at this point; she lost her memory of it. As we go along, more and more things will be revealed, like Eleanor Rougemont, another witch and Bun were the Roxy, Joanna and Kat of their generation. Now the cycle is starting over again, so it gets really interesting.

On the introduction of the third witch: I don’t want to reveal everything, but, yes, the third witch [will be] made known.

On Roxy, Joanna and Kat: We have a huge Halloween show [airing October 28] with coffins and bonfires and rain, a kidnapping and attempted murder. Things happen that the girls don’t understand;it’s just mind-boggling. They start realizing they have powers and it comes out in Episode 8 that they’re [witches].

There are plenty of shocking moments on this weeks episode of Eastwick. The girls seem to be delving more and more into the mysterious celtic symbol - even if at this moment they seem not too concerned.

Trouble brews for Joanna as the man who dumps her at the alter arrives in town the day before her big date with Will.

Roxie's visions of her neighbor Jaime keep coming back - this makes her determined to find out about who he is and where he comes from.

Kat and Raymond start to go at it in a nasty divorce battle for custody of their children. With Darryl's savvy NY lawyer's help, Kat can win it all, but at what price?

Read our full summary to find out all the shocking details of this weeks episode, "Fleas and Casserole."

We leave you with a few of our favorite quotes:

Joanna: (talking about her ex-fiance Morgan) Penny, that man took six years of my life! I thought we were soulmates and then he pooped on my heart. | permalink

Penny: (to Joanna) I'm buying you a muzzle. | permalink

(Roxie measuring Darryl for the sculpture)
Darryl: Oh, I think you are going to need a larger tape. | permalink

Penny: It's like the hokey pokey - emphasis on the pokey. | permalink

Tomorrow night will we finally learn the mystery that surrounds Roxie's hunky neighbor, Jaime? Maybe with the help of Darryl, we will!

Kat realizes that she might be in jeopardy of losing her children; so she finally decides to give Darryl's divorce lawyer a call.

And just as Joanna is about to finally go on her first date with Will, her ex-fiance pays her a surprise visit.

Check out below some pictures for tomorrow's new episode, "Fleas and Casserole." And don't forget to tune in Wednesday night at 10pm on ABC!
