New comedy-drama series: Daytime Divas

Daytime Divas

Every weekday at noon, Maxine (Vanessa Williams), Mo (Tichina Arnold), Heather (Fiona Gubelmann), Kibby (Chloe Bridges), and Nina (Camille Guaty) - hosts of The Lunch Hour, the long-running women's talk show - gather around the table to discuss life, love, politics, and juicy gossip.

But behind the scenes, it's even juicier - a backstage world filled with power struggles, diva fits and steamy affairs.

The series was inspired by the book Satan's Sisters... A Novel of Fiction by Star Jones, television personality, lawyer and journalist - and Star Jones plays herself. Star and Nina cross paths in a gifting suite and Nina quickly learns who's boss.

Tamera Mowry-Housley plays a friend of Mo's who gives her some career advice.

The cast of The View, including Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, Jedediah Bila and Sara Haines play themselves. The behind-the-scenes drama of The Lunch Hour makes the news and everyone is talking about it, including the ladies at The View.

Richard T. Jones plays Ben Branson, a sexy charismatic real estate mogul who is set up on a blind date with Maxine.

Tammy Blanchard plays Sheree Ainsley, Kibby's scheming mother. Sheree put Kibby into show business when Kibby was very young, and has dined off Kibby's paychecks and celebrity ever since.

Ness Bautista plays Andrew Weller, Nina's husband and a rising politician who is about to begin a campaign for Congress. While Andrew appears smart and grounded, those aren't the only traits that got him to the top.
