If you’re looking for a guilty pleasure that’s not a holiday show, ITV has added The Hunting Wives to its ITVX streaming platform. It’s described as a series full of sex, secrets, and strong women with guns.
The show, which debuted in the US earlier this year, centers around Sophie, portrayed by Brittany Snow. She relocates to a made-up town in Texas after being involved in a fatal car accident.
She soon meets Margo (Malin Akerman from Billions), a wealthy socialite, and finds herself pulled into a perilous world filled with dangerous obsessions and murder.

The show’s cast features Dermot Mulroney, known from Secret Invasion and Shameless US, Chrissy Metz from This Is Us, Evan Jonigkeit of Somebody I Used to Know, and Katie Lowes, who starred in Inventing Anna.
You can watch all eight episodes of season one on ITVX, and the show is coming back for a second season!
Critics generally like the show, giving it a 76% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 26 reviews. NPR called it a fun, over-the-top summer show, saying it delivers exactly what it promises if that’s what you’re looking for.
According to film critic Mac the Movie Guy, The Hunting Wives isn’t sophisticated, but it’s very effective at building suspense and keeping viewers engaged in its mystery.
Reviewers at Common Sense Media and ArtsATL both described the series as delightfully trashy and entertaining, full of steamy romance and dramatic plot twists reminiscent of soap operas or murder mysteries.
According to Decider, The Hunting Wives doesn’t pretend to be high-brow television; it fully embraces its over-the-top, and often playfully exaggerated, sensuality.
According to the VisAble Blackwoman blog, The Hunting Wives is a captivating nighttime drama perfect for a weekend binge-watch, full of small-town intrigue.
The Hunting Wives is available to stream now on ITVX.
The latest issue of Living Legends magazine is now available, and it’s dedicated to the incredible Dolly Parton! You can find ‘Dolly at 80’ in shops or order it online for only £8.99.
