Title: | WIDOWS |
Logline: | When four women all lose their husbands in one night to mysterious accidents, the seemingly unconnected widows come together to investigate the deaths and prove their innocence.

Pitch: | DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES meets REVENGE |
Writer: | Laura Bensick |
Genre: | Drama |
Why to Read: | Blood is a bitch to get out of silk. Splashy, sexy, soapy and scandalous Ð primetime drama hasn’t looked this good in a while. With a beautifully complex group of characters Ð workaholics, trophy wives, perfect moms and party girls, this series not only caters to an incredibly diverse audience, but it showcases one as well. Deliciously addictive, and brimming with sex, murder, politics, and intrigue, this series not only springs to mind delightfully fond memories of DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES, REVENGE, or PRETTY LITTLE LIARS, but it brings to life a premise, mystery, and series of characters that could go miles beyond those. With its masterfully crafted dialogue and brilliantly dangled suspense elevating every scene, and the tease of the larger mystery at play, this pilot is not only the kind of show a network will build a night around, but it’s the kind that will win awards, ratings, and have talent fighting to be part of it. |
