Two brothers, Alex and Louis Thomas, open a small restaurant in New Jersey with their mother, Rita. On their opening night, Louis sleeps with the daughter of a notorious and very ruthless mafia boss, who burns down their home and restaurant, forcing the Thomas family to flee to Los Angeles. There, Alex and Louis find work at a prestigious Beverly Hills restaurant, where they both fall in love with the same woman, Andrea, the beautiful daughter of the restaurant's wealthy owner. This sets off a chain of events and now their lives will never be the same again. As the intrigue mounts, and the mafia is hot on their trail, Alex and Louis are faced with added danger, as the bonds of brotherly love are threatened by betrayal.

Desire is just too unbelievable a plot.

Although the dialog and script is horrible, the entire plot upon which this TV series will be based on is just too unbelievable. The young star actors are cute and handsome but have terrible lines and their acting just does not cut it. I must though say that this should not apply to Alex Silva since he has few lines on the first episode. However,the few lines he had were well acted and he is hot. He could be the next Brad Pitt. The actresses are beautiful and sexy but their acting is just horrible. Although, the script and lines were no help but they still could not deliver the lame lines with any believability. I struggled seeing the entire episode. It just has such a stupid plot. You should check it out just to see how the fact that just because you get some cute boys and cute girls will not sell a TV series. There has to still be a good plot, script or writing, and talent with the persons delivering the acting; not just young cute guys and pretty girls. I guess you can compare Smallville with Desire. Desire lacks a good script and actors with talent although they supply only the youth and beautiful people. Smallville has a great script and the beautiful young actors and actresses can act.
