    As so often happens in real life, these three women were contently going along and their lives changed in the blink of an eye. Why Women Kill is an entertaining dramedy that has a similar feel to the first season of Desperate Housewives. It's funny without being silly and a wonderful escape. Plus there is great eye candy with the decor, cars, hair, makeup and outfits. Check it out.

    Season 2 of Why Women Kill surpasses the first season by concentrating on one story and one set of interconnected characters, boosted by an excellent cast.

    “Why Women Kill” feels more comfortably familiar than recycled or old. There’s never a question of why we should care about any of these characters. Cherry and the performers make us care about all of their fates, even that of uptight, prissy Beth Ann and shallow, self-centered Simone. Goodwin and Liu may be camping up their performances, but they also take care to grant them enough humanity for the viewer to invest in what happens to each, or in what they do. Howell-Baptiste is also wonderful, although she purposefully makes Taylor harder to read than her co-stars’ women.

    Why Women Kill is akin to an overly complicated craft cocktail, boasting an intriguing brightness, namely in the form of Goodwin’s performance, but lacking balance in its competing flavors. It’s full of baffling tonal and narrative decisions that undermine what does work about the show.
