Hanging the Drapes

Cleaning Rich People's Mess.
I have to admit, I liked this show even though it reminded me of desperate housewives which I ultimately despised. The series follows the lives of 4 Latino maids, each one of them works for a rich employee in Beverly hills, usually a celebrity or some sort of social persona. But polishing and sucking up to their bosses isnt the only thing these maids have to deal with from day to day bases. They all have secrets, schemes and hidden agendas. There are many twists and turns that the viewer gets exposed to which are believable and adds more flavor to the show.

At first I was skeptical, cause I thought the writers and the producers would go for the classic (poor and kind vs. rich and evil) concept especially when it comes to the nature of the relationship between the maids and their bosses. I was afraid we would get the b""Chy employer who's impossible to deal with and the saint employer the cinderella story anyone? But that's not the case entirely which makes the series divert...

One of the best shows ever!
I am very picky about the shows I watch because most of them are just recycled plots from other shows but not Devious Maids. I have watched every episode and I find myself grinning like an idiot because of the characters sharp wit and I honestly can't pick a favorite maid because I love them all so much. If you are hesitant to watch I promise you won't be disappointed - I'm going to get it on DVD to add to my collection of awesome TV shows. It has earned a place with Weeds, Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead and American Horror Story.

Interesting Twists
I have to say the show is a lot more than what I expected it to be. Each episode has a new twist to keep you on your toes. I cant wait for the next episode to air because I enjoy every single episode. There is a sophisticated change in story line that makes you want to keep watching because you have to know what happens in the next episode and how they get more clues that throw everything off to a whole other level. Very impressed by both the producers and the actors in this series.
