TV show description:
In the small New England town of Eastwick, three women make wishes at a fountain and become fast friends. Soon afterward, a very wealthy and mysterious man named Darryl Van Horne (Paul Gross) moves to the area and befriends the three women.
The ladies have a hard time resisting his wealth, charisma, and bad boy sex appeal. Darryl unleashes supernatural powers from within them, igniting their hearts’ desires, and opening more of a Pandora’s Box than even he could have expected.
Roxie Torcoletti (Rebecca Romijn) is an artistic free-spirited widow who lives by her own rules. Living with her teenage daughter, Mia (Ashley Benson), Roxie has a much younger boyfriend and persistent money problems. All of this doesn’t exactly endear her to her neighbors. Things start to change however when Darryl unleashes her power to see into the future.
Joanna Frankel (Lindsay Price) is a newspaper reporter for the Eastwick Gazette who’s also very shy and awkward. Darryl helps her get over these problems by telling her that she just needs to look people in the eye and tell them what she wants. It works and she even lands a guy she’s fancied for a long time, Gazette photographer Will St. David (Johann Urb).
Kat Gardener (Jaime Ray Newman) is the mother of five and is married to her high school sweetheart, beer-loving Raymond (Jon Bernthal). A registered nurse and the breadwinner of the house, she wishes dearly for a change in her life. Kat finds that she has healing abilities and an amazing green thumb. Things start to get out of hand when she unintentionally targets her lazy, unemployed husband.
Episode 13 — Pampered and Tampered
Penny is convinced Jaimie’s been murdered and Joanna does her best to cover up the truth. Roxie gets closer to Darryl but then, someone from her past reappears. Kat and her new neighbor, Collin, get closer but there’s something strange about his son, Gene. Read a full description here.

Please don’t cancel eastwick! My wednesdays will never be same!
PLEEEEAASE don’t cancel Eastwick. It’s the best TV show since Men in Trees. I cried over that for a month. I hate reality TV junk as does my family and friends. I don’t watch much TV but its worth it to watch a sit on the edge of your seat kind of show that keeps you coming back each week. I LOVE EASTWICK PLEASE DON’T TAKE IT AWAY. I’m truly about ready to cancel TV…….
Its not a good move to cancel Eastwick, please reconsider as it has been a show that has actually interested me in some time from ABC. As well as other people in my office and gym, please audit the ratings.
I would dearly love to see a network pick up Eastwick, it’s fun, different, engaging and interesting!
I am really upset that this show has been cancelled I watched it from day one, and I thought it was a great show. I am so sick of reality tv, and that is all that seems to be on anymore. Why cant you guys give it another shot. I know a ton of people that watched it too. It is a real shame that it got cancelled.
What is ABC doing???????????????????? Eastwick was one of the best shows I’ve seen in a LONGGGGG time. ABC is nuts to cancel this show!!!!
Let me see….There is about 12,000 total blogs and sites and people pissed because of the way you’ve handled this whole affair… At the very least, you should sell the whole project to another and let it go with another bad decision. You have offended your viewers and their intelligence. Think they will stick around for Ugly Betty? Think again..We are moving on..
Come on!!!! You’re kidding me??? You can not cancel Eastwick it’s way too good!!! Get rid of those stupid “reality” shows instead. Eastwick is the only show I watch and I love it. Finaly a show that is fun and funny and different!!! Why cancel?? This is nuts!!! Please keep Easwick!! And it’s getting soooo good!
I hope the show will come back or be taken by another channel, like what happened with Scrubs. That show isn’t even as funny as it used to be and ABC keeps airing that one.
please keep eastwick it is a wonderful show.
HOW COULD YOU CANCEL EASTWICK? I LOVED THAT SHOW AND LOOKED FORWARD TO EVERY NEW EPISODE. I AM SO DISAPPOINTED. WHAT CAN I DO TO ENCOURAGE YOU TO RECONSIDER?
I agree. My husband and I really like the show and thought it was starting to really get going. Why to do they leave crap on TV and always take away the good stuff? Get rid of those ridiculous reality shows. Most of those just suck.
Eastwick is/was my soap opera. I love the show. It’s intelligent, witty, and supernatural. I think it’s a real shame they are canceling it. I have watched it from the first night, and my only complaint from day one, was that I wanted more!
Paul Gross, always a delight and one absent too long from TV, is the only reason to watch the otherwise insipid Eastwick. Which means it’s not reason enough. Dump this dodo, and bring back Defying Gravity, I say. At least DG is good drama, which clearly can’t be said of Eastwick. It’s not that Eastwick is truly awful, it’s that it isn’t really any good, either — it’s just BLAH. And a new show needs to be better than that. Ditch it!
No mention of Paul Gross?!?
@WolvenSpectre: You must’ve missed him. He’s mentioned in the first couple lines of the description. 🙂
