This is a show about a mother with 2 children who's husband splits on her and leaves her high and dry at a time when things start going very badly financially, as a result she takes up being a masseuse who gives her customers a little extra at the end. Yes this is another show where Jennifer Love Hewitt is the main actress and she's doing a brilliant job of it. However in this case I do have to agree with the majority of other opinions there's something... missing. I think it might be she's just a bit too wholesome, when everything goes wrong for you there's usually some fallout. In this case there was none. I mean yea she didn't want to do her job for a whole 5 seconds but then after that it really worked out so it can't really be considered bad. Bottom line I just kinda feel like they have a fantastic cast and Jennifer is doing all the heavy lifting, There needs to be a bit more storyline involving everyone else. 8/10

I'm really amazed by how honest and accurate this show is regarding sexuality. It completely flies in the face of long established post- war dogma. 1) The inclusion of obese women, while not visually appealing, makes the show realistic. No one can deny that female obesity greatly exceeds male obesity, yet outside of a few major metro areas this is a regular part of life that is not depicted on television. 2) We live in a world today that proclaims women as victims of all manner of sex crimes, prostitution among them. Uniformly in this show, we see how prostitution is very much entwined with all female characters even if it is simply tolerance. 3) Amazingly, male socio-sexual behavior is very accurately prescribed. Most men are without question losers, or desperately desiring female love and affirmation. It is hard to watch this show and believe in "the patriarchy". Yet, this is how it goes. 4) The depiction of the kids is really tremendous. This is a messed up show in many ways, and it does show them as a casualty. You can't walk away from this and think broken families are a good thing. 5) The diversity police weren't bad in this show. I feel like the black and white relations were very typical of modern Southern society. Nothing seemed forced, and it seemed genuine. 6) While the show clearly shows how prostitution is a part of the female existence, there is an element of caring to it that is not commonly understood. 7) The show indirectly brings awareness of the ongoing economic crisis. Soft prostitution has undoubtedly increased significantly over the years, and this shows just how it happens.

None of the character are likeable, their accents are annoying and the plot is dull. it's like watching a soap opera, all the acting is so bad!! Especially the kids tbh. No wonder it got canned 2 seasons in. Jennifer Love Hewitt is definitely past her prime

Back in 2010 I highly enjoyed the 2010 original Lifetime movie "The Client List" now the network has made a brilliant move and made a spin off of the provocative film into an original series once again starring Jennifer Love Hewitt. And as expected it's just as sexy and it's a feel good guilty pleasure watch just as the movie was! With a similar story Love Hewitt is Riley Parks a single just divorced small town Texas mother of two who takes up a job at a day spa massage center that gives clients a little extra behind closed doors it's more than a little rub! Aside from the sexy and steamy scenes shown in the massage room this series branches off into the life of Riley(Jennifer Love Hewitt)as it's tough being a single mom raising kids and making ends meet. Yet with each client she meets it's like she wears a mask as a friend, listener, and adviser, she really must walk a thin line. And the series focuses on Riley's family life with mom Linette(Cybill Shepherd)and it's a journey of choice and concern as Riley tries to get back into the dating game as this series is of lust, secrets, and hidden guilt still you can't blame this little lady for making ends meet. Sure the eye candy is good as Jennifer looks hot and sexy in her many colored bra scenes. Overall a guilty pleasure series that is a lustful secret it proves anything can happen behind closed doors with adults and everything has it's own price.

Wow! Not the kind of TVShows I am used to, I mean, I'm not a fan of Lifetime and it's series for women, but this definitely caught my attention. First of all because of Hewitt, who I love in movies/series and really admire. It's true, this series did not start up that awesome, but it got better and better, and it keeps getting so. For example the last 2 episode, one left till the finale and it's looking awesome. I just love the dialogs, and the way at the end it teaches you something, about life, about people, cause I believe that's what cinema is, it tells you a story or presents a situation that either teaches you something or makes you wonder about something... and The Client List does just that; Yeah! I loved the film too, and it was hard at the beginning to deal with the changes, but Hewitt and the writers make it all worth. I just love the fights between Riley ans Selena, I can feel the fire they are both putting into it, and as much as I hate Serena's character I admit that girl is doing a great job. I already look forward to a new season from The Client List! I hope nobody gets any ideas and cancels it.

We're only two episodes in, and I personally, love it. People, what do you expect? It's LIFETIME (TELEVISION FOR WOMEN) What do women want, honestly? Half naked me with glistening, beautiful chests and arms. Win. The subject matter is a little shallow, SO FAR... but again... so far is TWO episodes. Give it a chance. The Texan characters are believable and charming (trust me, after living years in Texas). And I really care about Jennifer Love Hewitt's character, and am rooting for her. Go Client List!

I have been reading reviews and opinions regarding The Client List. I am going to do a pro and con list in pairs. How fun is that? 1p) Pros, It is entertaining, and somehow I do not feel anyone meant it to be a after-school special on morals or values. It was not even presented as such. 1c) Con, the entertainment value is a bit to shallow. Get JLH off the creepy pedestal spotlight, making her appear above all the rest. Let her character shine, not her *. XXX 2p) With each episode, she grows in strength and confidence. 2c) Self deprecating choices. Seriously? She made a choice. She was not forced into her occupation. She chose this. Stop making her moral dilemma such an issue. Embrace it. Why not? She keeps having these moral battles and woman viewers are going to take up the Joan of Arc crusade and call it demeaning to women.. You know I'm right. (I am a woman) XXX 3p) The men are hot. 3c) All men are hot. Reality, not all men are hot. XXX 4p) The job appears sexy. 4c) The job needs to show ups and downs. All careers have them. XXX 5p) Everyone loves and drools over JLH, or jealous. 5c) Everyone loves and drools over JLH, or jealous. (Repeat was intentional) So anyway. The show is mildly entertaining and had much potential to grow from a decent concept with an unrealistic start. Writers and producers? Work on that, thanks..

I gave it 4 starts because even though I like the show I can't really get into it because of how phony the writing is at times to benefit JLH. The storyline can draw you in but only to a point because JLH is always getting told how "beautiful" she is, making it very corny. It gets old real quick. It must be produced by her because in every single episode they have to throw in the whole town fawning all over her like she's Angelina Jolie and not the girl next door that she is. Its weird. Like other reviews have mentioned...the rest of the cast is below average in looks to make JLH's average looks go farther. Except for her BFF, she's beautiful, but a bigger girl, so I guess she's safe for JLH to act opposite of. The drama and her hectic life is very well written...if they can stop treating her character like the hottest thing to ever walk the Earth and get beautiful women to act opposite her like any other show not produced by her would have, they really will have a good show.

I was never big on watching TV series, but then I got a Netflix account and took a chance to watch one episode of this.. I liked it, so continued to next ep and then I was so engaged with the story, I ended up watching entire S1 and S2 within record two days!! I never expected I would ever spending literally hours watching any TV series like this.. but it happened with this one. needless to say, I liked this series a lot. In particular, I liked the strong character played by JLH. She totally delivered in the performance.. and so did the other supporting actors. The overall story is OKish if I think of it now, but what really made the difference was how the story was told/unfolded/delivered. The last few episodes in S2 were really gripping and kept the suspense going till last minute of S02E15. JLH is one damn hot babe, with a sensual yet a pleasing/lovely demeanor. I thoroughly enjoyed the series. It's pity that the series ended abruptly, so taking 2 points away for that.

In "The Client's list", we have the economy -crisis- as a severe background but a housewife who seems really compelled to buy non essential things. I can understand the difficulties of that family but why the big SUV, the new boots, and apparently the new kitchen: didn't she hear about savings? So that situation leaves her with no other choices than to accept to be a masseuse (despite the strange definition of the job) and put aside her apparent morality... And what about her so-called clients! all so wealthy and good looking! because everyone knows than the ugly ones don't have the same needs than the first category... Seriously!?! Do i have to add that i'm not convinced by the relationships being developed between all the protagonists... none of the characters seems to act natural but trying to enter a category: you have the brave strong mother, her cheerful friend, her tormented brother-in-law, the jealous co-worker... Finally what do we get of that show? a remedy to financial crisis: moral crisis! or how to flip a problem for a new one... I don't advise that show except if you're looking for something easy to process, you just have to watch and you will forget it!
