'Tis the season of witches!

Not 1, not 2, but 3 new series debuting this fall focus on witches and we must confess, we can't get enough! Seriously, we've been wearing all black and are strongly considering adopting a black cat. But we digress! The Originals premiered on the CW earlier this week and American Horror Story: Coven makes its frightful debut this Wednesday, but tonight was all about Lifetime's Witches of East End, a sexy and spooky drama focusing on a family of cursed witches.

Starring Julia Ormond, Jenna Dewan-Tatum and Rachel Boston as a mother and her two daughters who don't know they are witches, Lifetime was hoping the trio was able to put a spell on you. So we want to know: Will you keep watching The Witches of East End?

Joanna Beauchamp (Ormond) has a pretty sucky fate, y'all: She's watched her daughters die countless times over. Of course, they always come back. This time around, Joanna has kept the family's witchy gene a secret from Freya (Dewan-Tatum), a wild-child bartender, and Ingrid (Boston), a quiet librarian, hoping she can protect them from the curse. Too bad there's a new threat coming up against the Beauchamps that can alter the family's fate forever. Enter: Joanna's estranged sister Wendy (Mädchen Amick), who returns to town to warn Joanna and help teach the girls how to use their powers. Her curse? She can turn into a cat and has 9 lives! (She's still got a few left.)

Another thing Witches has going for it, aside from the magic and mythology? Romance, including a love triangle between Freya and two brothers: Her fiancé Dash (Eric Winter), a rich playboy doctor, and his mysterious brother Killian (Daniel DiTomasso), who Freya feels an immediate connection to when he comes back to town. But Ingrid's also got a hot love interest in the form of Grey's Anatomy's Jason George as Adam, a local detective she shares history with. Too bad he arrested her mother for murder by episode's end!
