I am delighted that it has gone full-on soap this season. It also seems that it's much funnier this season, almost as if they have a whole new writing crew that's decided to focus on the humor. I've been laughing out loud at every episode. Also cannot stand Carmen's niece/daughter, although I know I'm one of the few people who actually likes Carmen. It seems they brought her on the show and then didn't know what to do with her, much like her unlamented predecessor Valentina, and now perhaps Josephina is coming to haul her away.

Now, as for Genevieve's plot, Rosie's plot (very similar to the whole "Susan tries to get Mike out of jail" in the third season of DH" storyline) and Marisol's plot (where evidently Peter has to be implied in the mystery in some capacity, because a male love interest always has been on this show), I don't care for any of them.

Also, wasn't he trying to win Evelyn back? What is he doing romancing other women? The only interesting lead was "the circle", which makes me hopeful there could be more to Peri's murder than just a bunch of couples screwing around and cheating on each other.

I got a laugh out of the double reveal (Carmen being a mother and Zoila pretending to be rich) at lunch, and especially Rosie's comment about being surprised they could keep a secret going this long. Also liked Jesse turning tail and running from three angry Puerto Rican women. Poor Spence, the perpetual damsel in distress.

I also love how the show played the "recruitment" of Genevieve where she just couldn't get into the book and when she paid closer attention, realized it was a cult. I hate seeing people be seduced into cult relationships so it's refreshing that, so far, it's about those already in the cult vs. those recognizing it's a cult. I'm liking the mature vibe Zoila and Adrian are creating. I don't want them to fall in love but I think it's a friendship that could be beneficial. Overall, the only story I'm not really into is Carmen's offspring but in general, I think this season is starting out strong. If nothing else, it should be commended for managing to get its characters into new, unfamiliar situations and seeing how they navigate it. While I miss Zoila and Genevieve, watching her get the chance to be "be rich" is worth watching for me. And the reasons she's choosing to distance herself make sense. Plus, the show didn't have her marry rich or win the lottery to put her in this showcase. The same applies to Evelyn who didn't lose a bunch in the stock market. She just has a spouse who is currently outmaneuvering her. I've also liked watching Rosie and Genevieve navigate one another. It looks like she's going to help expose the cult and clear Spence.

lark37 July 5, 2016 Share July 5, 2016 I am an avid mystery reader, and while I figured that Kyle and his mother tied into the "Circle" story somehow, I did not see the twist of Kyle's mother being the ring leader coming. I love how this show constantly changes the relationship dynamics by pairing up different characters as well as changing the mystery each season. Zoila and Adrian as well as Rosie and Genevieve are pairings I would never have thought to put together but I'm enjoying both relationships enormously. As for Danni, there is a lot of disliking the young female characters on this show. Valentina got so much grief from this board. Valentina's accent bugged me as it didn't match up with Zoila having a different accent, but overall her character and her plot didn't bother me. I feel the same about Danni. The show has always given Carmen a weak plot line, and I think having her explore the relationship with her daughter is a bit deeper than she usually gets. I hope Danni is back soon. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/5126-devious-maids-general-discussion/page/14/#findComment-2381267
iMonrey July 5, 2016 Share July 5, 2016 Quote Am I the only one who had been speculating Kyle and his mom were part of "the Circle" since their very first appearance? How could you have? They didn't even mention the Circle until just last week. But if you meant they might have had something to do with Peri's murder, then yeah - I was kind of expecting that to tie in somehow. This is the smartest Rosie has ever been (granted, that's not saying much). It's nice seeing her be proactive this season. At this point, Spence doesn't even seem worth it anymore. So, OF COURSE Zoila's boyfriend is the ringleader of some murderous cult because these maids just can't have nice things. Seriously - how many murderers have they gotten involved with already? Carmen and her realtor boyfriend, a murderer. Marisol and Nicholas, a hit-and-run murderer. Rosie and Spence, an accused murderer. Flora and Phillippe, who murdered her. Who am I forgetting? Oh yeah, Spence's nephew who had a crush on Carmen, also a murderer. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/5126-devious-maids-general-discussion/page/14/#findComment-2381346

Seems pretty clear that he was trying to get Genevieve into the cult, doesn't it? I'm guessing she will go "undercover" (as much as Genevieve can go "undercover" that is) to get information. I wouldn't have called this episode "filler", I actually thought quite a few plot points were advanced this week. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/5126-devious-maids-general-discussion/page/14/#findComment-2381384
Lion18 July 6, 2016 Share July 6, 2016 It hit me by surprise that the neighbors of Zoila were the Circle i also agree Geniveve will go undercover to find out about it it bothered me when Carmen just dismissed Daniella because she can't be a mom.

I think he was trying to recruit her because she's wealthy. But I also suspect it's a play on the John Travoltas of the world. I believe Scientology (which the Circle seems to be parodying) sees homosexuality as something that can be overcome. Fabian could have been recruiting her but also trying to assert his heterosexuality thinking that an older woman would be easier to fool. 11 hours ago, iMonrey said: So, OF COURSE Zoila's boyfriend is the ringleader of some murderous cult because these maids just can't have nice things.

Well, you can never go wrong with Evelyn. Love her!! (& her HAIR! OMG!!) Always liked Susan Lucci ever since her first day on AMC.

iMonrey July 6, 2016 Share July 6, 2016 Quote it bothered me when Carmen just dismissed Daniella because she can't be a mom. But that was actually very unselfish of Carmen. She knows Josephina is Daniella's "real" mother and wanted to make sure Daniella knew it too. She made sure Daniella couldn't just dump her mother and expect Carmen to take her place. Quote I believe Scientology (which the Circle seems to be parodying) Seems to be? I love how blatantly obvious it is. "Joynetics" is an obvious parody of Dianetics. I hope they show who the author is and it's some obvious alliteration to L.

Marsupial July 7, 2016 Share July 7, 2016 Yes, I am enjoying the whole Circle plot and the obvious jab at Scientology, although I hope the writers of the show have a really good security detail, those Scientologists are not people you want to cross, LOL. Fabian's reaction when Genevieve told him the book was boring was classic cult-member rage, going from sweetness and light to "well, that's because it's new and you're old." Absolutely typical! Evelyn and Genevieve continue to win every scene they're in ("I'm so beautiful I made him straight" or whatever she said, with that utterly straight face, hilarious). And I am definitely looking forward to the machinations that the two twisted minds of Zoila and Adrian will concoct. It's especially funny because Zoila hasn't revealed this kind of dark side before; clearly Adrian brings it out in her and it's a lot of fun to watch. I predict they'll come up with a scheme to win Evelyn back and expose the Circle. Quote Evelyn is just the best. LOVED her utter joy at revealing Zoila's identity and puncturing Adrian's spirits Another great moment. I have curly hair and if I could ever get it to look half as good as Evelyn's I'd throw my flat irons away. I hope Dani stays away and I wish she had taken Marisol with her. That said, I love the way Marisol dresses and styles herself. For a woman who's not naturally beautiful she always looks great. I just can't stand the character. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/5126-devious-maids-general-discussion/page/14/#findComment-2385352
