Jennifer Love Hewitt rubs it in on SABC 3

Tonight is the SA premiere of a brand new drama series on SABC 3. The Client List, starring Jennifer Love Hewitt, is all about a single mom who goes to work as a massage therapist to make ends meet.

The first season of this saucy new series, comprising 10 episodes, starts airing tonight (05.03.13) at 9pm on SABC3

Hewitt (The Ghost Whisperer, Heartbreakers, I Know What You Did Last Summer) heads up a star-studded cast that also features three-time Golden Globe-winning actress Cybill Shepherd, best known for her roles in Moonlighting and Cybill as well Loretta Devine of Waiting to Exhale and Grey’s Anatomy.

In the series The Client List, based on the 2010 film of the same name that earned Hewitt a Golden Globe nomination, she stars as Riley Parks, a Texas housewife who has been abandoned by her husband and left in serious financial straits.

To survive, she takes a job at The Rub, a seemingly ordinary day spa in a neighbouring town – only to find out that some of her co-workers are offering their male clients a little something extra to make cash on the side.

Riley is faced with a moral dilemma: join in and start offering “value-added” services that aren’t on the official spa menu, or continue struggling to put food on the table for her two children.

The series pivots around this ethical tug-of-war as Riley embarks on a double life teeming with secrets: she must balance being a respectable single mom in a conservative community with being a savvy, ambitious businesswoman working in a frowned-upon enterprise with a bunch of raucous women.

She soon learns that money talks, pleasure sells and discretion is everything.

Shepherd stars as Riley’s five-times-married mother, Linette Montgomery, who works at a hair salon, while Emmy-winning actress Loretta Devine (Crash) features as Georgia Cummings, the owner of the massage parlour.

The show’s supporting cast includes Colin Egglesfield (Something Borrowed, Melrose Place), Rebecca Field (Hawthorne), Naturi Naughton (Fame), Kathleen York (CSI, Desperate Housewives) and Alicia Lagano (Dexter, Prison Break).

Don’t miss The Client List, airing exclusively on SABC3 on Tuesday nights at 9pm from 5 March 2013.
