theTVAddict recently sat down with Cashmere Mafia’s Bonnie Somerville.

Thanks to high profile gigs on FRIENDS, THE OC and KITCHEN CONFIDENTIAL, actress Bonnie Somerville hasn’t left this TV Addict’s radar since arriving on the scene with the brilliant-but-cancelled Darren Star laugher GROSSE POINTE.

Not one for the unemployment line, Somerville can now be seen playing Caitlin Dowd on ABC’s Wednesday night guilty pleasure CASHMERE MAFIA. And recently, was kind enough to take some time from her schedule to chat with reporters about her her role on MAFIA, being Darren Star’s unlucky charm and the inevitable comparisons to that other show about four beautiful New York women.

You’ll recognize her as Zoe’s daughter Sasha on Cashmere Mafia, and Katherine Heigl’s younger self in the film 27 Dresses. We recently had the opportunity to ask Peyton Roi List a few questions about working with Frances O’Connor, a glimpse at what’s coming up on the series, and more!

Peyton Roi ListCashmereMafia.net: Thanks for taking the time to talk with us, Peyton, we know you’re a very busy young lady! So how much fun are you having on Cashmere Mafia?
Peyton List: I’m having a great time. Working with such great actors is a lot of fun.

CashmereMafia.net: What’s it like working with Frances O’Connor? She seems like a fun person to work with.
Peyton List: Yeah. She really is. Between takes she’s really funny & we tell jokes & laugh a lot.

CashmereMafia.net: Can you tell us about what you’re doing in upcoming episodes?
Peyton List: Sure. I have a Science fair project with my Mom (Frances O’ Connor)who helps me, but turns out to be a disaster.

CashmereMafia.net: You all get to wear such cool clothes; do you get to keep what you wear?
Peyton List: Not yet. But they said when the season wraps that maybe I can keep a few things. I really hope I do because the clothes are so cool.

CashmereMafia.net: I see that you are in the new movie 27 Dresses, which I cannot wait to watch. Who do you play?
Peyton List: I play young Jane (Katherine Heigl). I open the film.

CashmereMafia.net: You have a twin brother who is also an actor; do you help each other learn your lines or get into character?
Peyton List: It’s fun working with my brother, Spencer, on his lines. We have fun!

CashmereMafia.net: Do you want to be an actor when you grow up? What else are you interested in?
Peyton List: Yes. I love dancing, singing, playing basketball, & riding my bike. I also love animals.

CashmereMafia.net: Thanks again for talking with us! We’ll see you on Cashmere Mafia!
Peyton List: Cool. Thanks.

Head’s up! Bonnie Somerville (aka Caitlin) is scheduled to appear on tonight’s Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson on CBS. The show usually airs right after Letterman, but check local listings to be sure.

“The Deciders” – Caitlin and Alicia attend a lesbian bridal shower, where an overwhelmed Caitlin finds she still can be attracted to an incredibly hot guy. Mia, whose parents fix her up on a blind date with a brain surgeon, decides to take the good doctor to a blowout party, hoping to make her ex-fiance, Jack — who has recently hooked up with a gorgeous news anchor — jealous. Meanwhile, after discovering that her colleagues are double-dealing her, Zoe is called on to save an important client’s business; and Juliet struggles to trust her husband, Davis, after catching him in a questionable meeting with his mistress, Cilla Gray, on Cashmere Mafia, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 23 (10:00-11:00 p.m., ET), on the ABC Television Network.

Perhaps not as easily familiar and recognizable as her fellow Cashmere Mafia co-star, Lucy Liu, but Miranda Otto is no greenhorn in the entertainment business. The petite actress from Brisbane, Queensland, Australia has paid her dues to get where she is now in her career, not to mention the fact that acting is already in her blood.

Otto stars alongside Liu, Frances O’Connor and Bonnie Somerville in Cashmere Mafia, the latest from Sex and the City creator, Darren Star.

It’s an embarrassment of riches – ABC is giving us a new episode of Cashmere Mafia just a few days after the premiere! Debuting in its regular timeslot tonight, 10/9c, here’s the official synopsis for the second episode of Cashmere Mafia:

No sooner is Mia appointed publisher of Barnstead Media Group than she is ordered to fire her mentor, Grant Normandy. Meanwhile a battle of wills ensues between a sexy stay-at-home supermom and working mom Zoe, who finds her rival has propositioned Eric with a no-strings-attached offer that he might find hard to refuse; Caitlin and her new girlfriend, Alicia, surprise their friends when they announce that they’ve taken their relationship to a new level; couples counseling for Juliet and Davis takes a turn for the worse; and Juliet decides to make some changes herself.

Fast overnight ratings are in! Approximately 10.72 million people watched the premiere of Cashmere Mafia last night.

If you missed the premiere, ABC is giving viewers another chance to catch it on Tuesday, January 8, at 10/9c. And don’t forget to tune in on Wednesday when the show debuts in its “real” timeslot at 10/9c with a new episode!

Finally, the premiere day for Cashmere Mafia has arrived! Don’t miss tonight’s premiere on a special day/time following Desperate Housewives. Then come back for the next episode in Cashmere’s regular timeslot Wednesday at 10/9c. Here’s the official synopsis for tonight’s premiere:

In the premiere episode, “Pilot,” Mia and Jack Cutting make a quintessential New York power couple. Just engaged, the two face off in a cut-throat, “survivor-style” competition in order to determine which of them will be promoted to U.S. Group Publisher at Barnstead Media Group. A smitten Caitlin must face up to the strange but wonderful feelings she is encountering with a new love interest at the office. Meanwhile, Juliet decides on a unique method of payback for her husband Davis’ indiscretions and simultaneously, in a bold move, must decide whether to drop her public image to step out in the world. And Zoe and her husband, Eric, are on another 24/7 whirl of balancing their full-time careers and the challenge of being good parents to two small children — all with good humor. But how long will it be before the wheels come off the cart?

ABC announced today that Cashmere Mafia will have a special premiere on Thursday, January 3 at 10/9c, then move to its regular timeslot at Wednesdays at 10/9c on January 9. New episodes are slated to run through February 27, at which point Men In Trees will take over the timeslot until the writers strike is resolved and more episodes of Cashmere Mafia can be produced.

ABC made the nets’ first major strike-related scheduling change Monday morning, yanking “Cashmere Mafia” off the docket for now.

“Cashmere Mafia” was set to launch Nov. 27 at 10 p.m., behind the final episode of “Dancing with the Stars,” before moving to its normal Tuesday at 9 p.m. slot the following week. Instead, the show will now remain on the bench and serve as a utility player in case ABC needs more scripted originals later in the season.

To replace the “Mafia” hole, ABC will now bump the two-hour “Dancing With the Stars” finale to 9 p.m. At 8, Alphabet will run the holiday perennial “A Charlie Brown Christmas.”

Specials are on tap to fill the Tuesday 9 p.m. slot in future weeks for the time being.

From Sony Pictures TV, “Cashmere Mafia” stars Lucy Liu, Frances O’Connor, Miranda Otto and Bonnie Somerville as successful, driven women in New York City. Darren Star, Kevin Wade, Jeff Rake, Gail Katz and Michael Pressman are exec producers.

NBC still has the similarly themed “Lipstick Jungle” on tap; “Mafia’s” scheduling change now means the battle resumes to see which network gets their project on air first.
