Show Summary

  • Returning Series

Army Wives tells the story of four women and one man who are brought together by their common bond – they all have military spouses. The series is based on the book Under the Sabers: The Unwritten Code of Army Wives by Tanya Biank.

Army Wives is produced by ABC Television Studio and The Mark Gordon Company.

Pamela Moran used to be a member of the Boston police department. She is now a homemaker allowing her husband to be the breadwinner of the family. She is, as we learn, earning some money as a surrogate mother.

Denise Sherwood tries to maintain the image of perfect military wife and mother, even if it means hiding the occasional bruise.

Claudia Joy Holden is the one the others look to for leadership and guidance. She is fully supportive of her husband's career and hoping a secret from her past doesn't come to light.

Roxy LeBlanc is newlywed to PFC Trevor LeBlanc after only knowing him four days. She is new to military life and uncertain if she will be able to fit in.

Roland Burton is a psychiatrist who is the "army wife" of Joan Burton. Joan has been serving in Afghanistan for two years and now they need to reconnect as a family.

    I bought dvds to this show with an open mind. Wanting to be sucked in to be impressed but sadly I wasn't ..I couldn't help myself compare it to another tv show that i truly love which is desperate housewives...it seems like the same plot has been used but with not such amazing story telling, the cast isnt likeable and it just doesn't have the certain magic ingredient to make it a hit show...a true guilty pleasure....i did like two things about the show i liked roxy cause she was interesting and likeable...i loved the music i can almost say the music was just as good as one tree hill's but thats where the praise ends... this show could have been better if some originality was brought into it maybe if the way it was told was different, it the stories were made interesting and better actors were casted that brought something to the table...I'm honestly kinda surprised how this show made a whole season...where decent enough shows are quickly taken off air ..it totally isnt worth the watch...at least not good enough to be purchased as a whole set of dvds..!!..the show has a old vibe to it and not the good kindmoreless

    I am writing to the shows final episode! That was a disapointment to the show! I have been a fan of the show since day one and as a real life Army wife know the hardships we all face but this show took a turn for the worst tonight and lost my support. I think they have brought one characters and actors that have not done the show justice and think that this show is on a spiral to the dead zone.
    Sorry folks but this is one show I asked everyone to watch and now have lost faith in the show.moreless

  • I can see why so many people like this show, but in reality, the things that happened on the show don't happen in real life. Officers and their families live in officer country and enlisted families don't fratinize with their superiors.moreless

    I know everyone wants the show to come back, but I don't think it will. If it does come back, it won't be anything like the old show because some of the characters will be missing. In fact, Roxanne, must likely won't be there because she is coming out in a Lifetime Movie Channel movie shortly.
    To many things left up in the air. The teenage daughter running off with the solider. In real llife it wouldn't happen. No way. Enlisted personnel and officers do not mix, especially teenage daughters.
    Enlisted wives and officer wives don't mingle either. I just don't see Army Wives coming back, what do y'all think?moreless

    I have been hooked on Army Wives since the very first episode. It brings reality to the war as well as the struggles that real Army Wives go through day to day. With the story unfolding as the episodes go on, you can't help but wonder what will happen next! If this show was a soap opera that came on daily, I would be ready to watch everyday! I love it! What does the future hold for the wives on post? If Pamela goes through with the divorce, she will have to leave post and what will she do then? They will probably write her off. I believe that she is an important piece to the show and I don't want to see her go! I guess we will all have to keep watching to see what she will do.moreless

    I love armywives...its hard to watch though bc i was marring into the army but we ended up just being friends...but he is in training for war right now so its hard...but i still watch it every sunday night!!although the show has a few parts are totally made up for the whole tv point of everything but it does show what military families have to deal with every day of this war...yes officers wives dont take to or hand out with enlisted wives (or husbands for that matter)but i do like how the show shows that ther are army husbands too!moreless
