A romantic drama following three lifelong best friends, Sweet Magnolias is based on the popular series of books by Sherryl Woods. Set against the charming small-town backdrop of Serenity, South Carolina, Maddie (Joanna Garcia Swisher), Helen (Heather Headley), and Dana Sue (Brooke Elliott) deal with the complexities of juggling family, relationships, and careers. Making her return to TV as a series regular is none other than Jamie Lynn Spears, playing new Serenity resident Norreen Fitzgibbons. It's been over a decade since Spears headlined the Nickelodeon series Zoey 101.

I also requested a forum for the show.

I don’t know how to link tweets on my phone but Netflix just announced season 2.

Woohoo!

Is there a forum for the show? I am on Episode 6 and I just have to say that whoever did the wardrobe for the show needs to be replaced. They have some of the most unflattering clothing on these women.

Agree.  They dress Joanna Garcia like a 40 year old teenager.

Thank you!  It's about time.  I'll have to rewatch season 1 to even remember.

Right now I'm on my first watching of Lost.

I came here today specifically to say that whoever dresses her should be taken out back and given a severe talking-to. It's laughable.

What I find really frightening is the thought that someone out there might actually think that is how Southern women dress. It's like they went to Goodwill and chose the ugliest things they could find.

Season 3 is back July 20th.

Seriously?  I think they have wrung all of the soap out of this opera that they can.

Pass.

[Lebanna]

Maybe something (anything) will actually happen in season 4?

*sigh*

[debbie311]

I sure hope Season 4 is better than 3.  So preachy, it was like Hallmark movie on steroids.

There are quite a few books in the series they can draw from, but I can only watch a couple episodes of this before I quit for a long time. Much prefer the books.
