Members Jonathan Posted March 10, 2012 Members Share Posted March 10, 2012 It was a Mexican series called, "The Disorderly Maids of the Neighbourhood." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted March 10, 2012 Author Members Share Posted March 10, 2012 Wow, 2 former soap stars as the leading roles of the employers. I wonder if they will go with another to round out the cast. I have to say I love the casting of Brown and Lucci. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jonathan Posted March 10, 2012 Members Share Posted March 10, 2012 I read that the original had 5 maids, but here they are only going with 4, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jonathan Posted March 10, 2012 Members Share Posted March 10, 2012 Found this post on deadline. Is it really Cat Hickland? GREAT casting! I read this script (read for the same role) and trust me when I tell you it’s the BEST script I’ve read in YEARS. Marc Cherry just knows how to give good soaps, folks. That is all.

Members SFK Posted March 10, 2012 Members Share Posted March 10, 2012 This is awesome news. Here's the show's IMDb page and all of the related articles: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2246649/news'>http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2246649/news http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2246649/ Maya from All My Children would be cute on this show. I really hope this gets picked up and we get to see Susan weekly in primetime. A glossy ABC primetime soapy dramedy, this is totally up her alley. It's her Dynasty/Desperate Housewives/Ugly Betty all rolled into one. Wish Nolan Miller could dress her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted March 10, 2012 Author Members Share Posted March 10, 2012 tons of women already signed on. Im waiting to see who will be cast as the male leads. Id love OLTLs Jerry verDorn as Lucci's onscreen husband Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted March 10, 2012 Members Share Posted March 10, 2012 I think William Devane would also make for a good onscreen husband for a Lucci character. Like Mike Nader's Dimitri, Bill Devane is time enough for those Erica types, he won't take her [!@#$%^&*]. Special guest appearances by Phyllis Diller as her wacky overbearing mother and Robin Strasser as her even crazier-assed older sister... Mr. Mark Cherry is a man who could make those campy pop culture dreams happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jonathan Posted March 10, 2012 Members Share Posted March 10, 2012 I think William Devane is too obvious a choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted March 10, 2012 Members Share Posted March 10, 2012 Other wishful casting: -Joan Collins or Stephanie Beacham as her English cousin -The Knots Landing ladies in various guest roles: Joan van Ark, Michele Lee, Donna Mills -BarBara Luna as one of the maids' mother/grandmother -Cameron Mathison as far away from this show as possible -DAVID CANARY! -Sonia Braga -Rita/Chita Who would you suggest?

Members Jonathan Posted March 10, 2012 Members Share Posted March 10, 2012 Wow, David Canary would be awesome on this show. I'd actually like Lucci to be paired with someone like Mark Derwin, but I think he's busy. Maybe Tom Verica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SFK Posted March 10, 2012 Members Share Posted March 10, 2012 She looks like Susan, maybe she'll get a chance to play her daughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted March 10, 2012 Author Members Share Posted March 10, 2012 I hope the sets are amazing. We need big splashy mansions and expensive cars Oh and whomever Lucci's husband is, she needs to be cheating on him with a much younger man. Maybe one of the maids can have a hot nephew/brother/son. Maybe Jordi Vilasuso. Actually Id go younger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted March 10, 2012 Members Share Posted March 10, 2012 Totally! I wanna see Susie pushing a Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe, and when she doesn't feel like driving, being pushed in a Rolls Royce Ghost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
