First Look At ABC's 'Eastwick'

 

 Hollywood is at it again with yet another reboot of an '80's property. This time it's ABC and their new television series, 'Eastwick'.  

'Eastwick' is of course based upon the 1987 hit film 'The Witches Of Eastwick'. The hour long fantasy-drama series will tell the tale of three women from the sleepy New England town of Eastwick who get charmed by a devilish stranger named Darryl Van Horne (Paul Gross).  The three female lead witches will be portrayed by Rebecca Romijn (as Roxie), Lindsay Price (as Joanna), and Jamie Ray Newman (as Kat).

Here is ABC.com's official synopsis the series:

In the seaside village of Eastwick, three very different women are about to discover some bewitching talents they never knew they had. And once they get together-- watch out. Something wicked is coming their way.

There was a time when Roxanne, Kat and Joanna didn't get along because of their preconceived notions of each other. Roxie was the extroverted artist, Kat the overworked wife and mom, and Joanna the wallflower local reporter. But after a weird encounter in the park, coupled with a few martinis, these three women have suddenly become fast friends. 

When the mysterious Daryl Van Horne arrives in town, he manages to bring the women even closer. His wealth, charisma and bad boy sex appeal are an irresistible combination for the three ladies. What's even more dangerous is that he unleashes their unique powers in ways they never could have imagined. But by igniting their hearts' desires, he might just be opening Pandora's Box.

Eastwick will be turned upside down as these enchanting women come into their own. Although bad for a few locals, it's still the best thing to happen to this small New England town in centuries. 

Based on John Updike's celebrated best-seller and the popular movie, Eastwick is brimming with romance, mystery and dangerous charm, offering a tempting vision of the ultimate wish-fulfillment fantasy. 

The promo for this show makes it look like a cross between Desperate Housewives, Sex In The City, and Charmed... Not really most guys' cup of tea, but I'm sure our girlfriends/wives will probably love it.

Eastwick can be seen this fall on Wednesdays @ 10/9c on ABC.
