TV show description:
This mystery series revolves around charismatic 16-year-old Danny Desai (Avan Jogia). He killed his aunt at the age of 11 and was held in custody for five years. He returns to his hometown and tries to reconnect with his two female best friends from childhood — while facing the challenges of a community of judgmental peers.
A murder occurs the day after he returns so Danny becomes an immediate suspect. Realizing the town does not care about the truth and only wants to see him convicted, Danny becomes determined to clear his name. At the same time, he must keep another secret — the true reason he killed his aunt.
Jo Masterson (Madelaine Hasson) is an offbeat and tough yet vulnerable girl who was Danny’s childhood best friend. She became a social outcast after discovering the body of his slain aunt and becomes Danny’s biggest supporter. Her best friend is Rico (Ashton Moio), the resident class clown.
Tess Masterson (Kimberly Quinn) is Jo’s mother and she tries to give Danny the benefit of the doubt. Jo’s father, Kyle (Sam Robards), is the town sheriff. He believes Danny is a cold killer and wants his daughter to stay away from him.
Lacey Porter (Kylie Bunbury) was once Jo and Danny’s best friend. She’s beautiful and intelligent and has found the popularity that eluded Jo. Lacey appears to have a perfect life but is very guarded and secretly misses the closeness of her former friendships.
Karen Desai (Denise Richards) is Danny’s mother. She once ruled the town’s social scene, but now struggles to put on a brave face when her son returns.
Episode #19 — A Tale of Two Confessions
Kyle’s investigation culminates with a series of shocking and contradictory confessions and potentially deadly consequences. The complicated triangle between Jo, Danny and Charlie comes to a shocking head. Karen and Tess uncover more of Vikram’s secrets, including a piece of evidence that has major implications for Tess and the Masterson family. Meanwhile, Whitney’s mother Gretchen (Elaine Hendrix) shows up to bring her daughter back to the city, and her candor about Whitney’s past causes Lacey to question her friend. And Rico makes a major faux pas in his first meeting with Andie’s parents.
First aired: April 1, 2014.
What do you think? Do you like the Twisted TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for another season?
I really enjoy watching the show with my daughter. I hope it comes back on soon.
Love this show. Cant wait for new season.
Twisted is nominated for 3 teen choice awards. If you have or know any teens ask them to vote for twisted.
I think everyone should stop wasting their time with ABC and start writing to Netflix . They have started picking up their own shows with huge success . I think if enough people contact Netflix that is the one source that will listen . It has in the past on getting new episodes and with them now wanting their own shows this is perfect .
TWISTED IS AN AWESOME SHOW. ABC should be called Killer Network. A good show takes a small little dip in ratings and they threatened to cancel regardless of how awesome the plot is. What happened to believing in something good and fighting for it to get more ratings. HEY ABC, ratings aren’t everything! Sometimes it taking moving a slot or more promotion. This show has great actors, great plot, cliff hangers, good-looking people. And much more.
That’s just crazy! I loved the show and now we will never know who pulled the trigger at the end of the season, if anyone was hit, if Danny is finally exonerated, if Jack’s motives to get hold of Danny’s money is exposed…I was talking to my daughter-in-law in Japan one night and said something about Twisted and she said she loves the program too (I suppose the military bases get ABC Family or maybe she watched it on Netflix). I know there are 6 avid watchers in our family.
I wont that show back on
My daughter and I love to watch this together. Please do not cancel it
From what I have read. They have not cancel twisted yet. They can’t leave us waiting. Too see what happens next. Jo and danny have too get together. And who got shot. Please don’t cancel, the other show are not as good as twisted. Hurry get the show going. Thank you.
Bring back the show and give it another try. It seems to me that most people who watched the show watched it in Netflix. I agree it’s gone unnoticed with so many new shows and other people who work graveyard like me don’t get the chance to really watch television. Had I not watched it in Netflix, I wouldn’t have known I like it so much. I record my favorite shows and watch it when I get home in the morning, or watch it while on break. Give TWISTED another try. The show have a lot of followers out there… Read more »
Does anyone know if it was canceled ?
Not yet but likely.
Well if ABC doesn’t want to pick it up I hope Netflix will . Since it was a bigger hit on Netflix then ABC . From what I am reading no one even noticed the show on ABC Hoping it fits in with some of the big hits like Orange is the new black and Hemlock Grove .
Please do not cancel “twisted”. Even a week seemed to long between episodes!
I think by the following on Netflix it would be a BIG mistake to cancel this series . It seems adding the show to Netflix brought the show back to life . It seem it went unnoticed on ABC but brought a following on Netflix .
I think you have a hit on your hands now and if you cancel a missed opportunity
I’m not sure if its an advertising or marketing problem, but all the shows I like, u cancel. I loved Lincoln Heights bcuz I grew up w/the ridicule of being a Police Officers dtr snd I look forward to Twisted, which you seem to now consider cancelling. I’m a fan but I’m beginning t feel like not getting involved in any more series. A lot of people I know have no clue about the great dhows u have because of none or little promoting or marketing. Just something u might take into consideration. Thanx for allowing me to provide feedback.
I never watched the show on ABC ….I think a lot of people didn’t even notice it . The title didn’t really seem appealing but if ABC can see the generated audience it received on Netflix it should reconsider . Most of the audience watched it on Netflix and loved the show . It is sad that ABC cant see they have a hit on their hands . I really hope Netflix buys the rights to the show . It will be a hit just like Orange is the new black and Hemlock Grove . Yet I do see the… Read more »
DO NOT CANCEL THE SHOW.
