The Help

The Help

"The Help" is a short-lived series which aired on The WB in March and April of 2004. The show was a raunchy comedy that focused on the hard-lucked life of a beauty school dropout, who now must work for the wealthy and spoiled Ridgeway family. The rest of the hired help are also very unusual in their own ways. The show only aired five episodes and was cancelled shortly after in May 2004 after disappointing ratings.

Summary

Maria is on her way to becoming a beautician, when her mother gets sick and she has to come home and take care of her.
