And like I’ve recently decided to do with shows like Bedtime Stories and Nightcap, I’m going to review this series one episode at a time. It’s sort of like a softcore version of Sex And The City. The series lasted two seasons, the first season pretty much centered on these four women, their relationships with each other and with others. And Krista Ayne played Sophie’s best friend and college roommate Maya, who also moves to NY while trying to figure out what she wants to do with her life. Like Bella she is bisexual, and the two of them occasionally have sex with each other, in a casual FWB-type of arrangement. Mia Presley stars as Cassia, Bella’s best friend, who works as a chef while dreaming of someday opening her own restaurant. Technically I think it could be said that LeGualt is the “star” of the show (although all 4 lead actresses get ample screen time and storylines), as we see her become more open (socially and sexually) over the course of that first season. The problem is that before this Sophie had no knowledge of her sister’s occupation or lifestyle and is initially appalled. She graduates from college and comes to live with Belle in New York, to accept a new job. Not exactly a prude, nor a virgin, but she is more conservative socially. Mary LeGault is Bella’s little sister Sophie, who is the complete opposite of her sister. Bella lives a carefree hedonistic lifestyle, which includes having sexual encounters with men and women alike. Heather Vandeven stars as Bella, a popular and successful nude model.

From what I’ve read, the novel was inspired by Darling’s experiences interviewing and getting to know various Penthouse Pets, and two of the lead actresses in this TV series are former Penthouse Pets themselves. It’s unique from other ongoing softcore TV series, in that it is based on a novel of the same name by Clara Darling (who is listed as co-writer for the series), therefor the series tells an ongoing story, with various plots continuing from one episode to the next. This series was developed by and aired on Cinemax in 2009. Heather Vandeven, Krista Ayne, Mia Presley, Mary LeGault
