I'm Hyped!

All of the articles gaurantee that there will be more interaction amongst the housewives, an integral story involving every house on Wisteria Lane and characters (mainly Bree and Gabby since Susan and Lynette didn't change that much) acting like their true self.

Discuss!!

I cant stand XM! Too bad she's pregnant bc I want Gabby to kick her ass!

Hilarious so far! I'm loving it. The entire feel of the show is ... different. And in a GOOD way.

Awesome so far! Love the introduction of the new mystery. Orson looked like a punk last season... but obviously I would think that things are not as straight forward as they seem. Maybe she is locked up. I don't think he killed her.

Is Lynette still working? Loving that each storyline is being given good airtime. And love that Edie is actually on!!

I would guess Lynette's still working ... not sure if you read spoilers ... but something happens on that front.

So many funny moments. God, I'm loving this season already and it's just the season premiere!

It was good. Grew tired of the Mike/Susan thing and switched channels when that came on. LOVED Lynette's story tonight. That nosey neighboure in the beginning, LOVE the actress (name slips me), she can play anything perfectly! Nice to see the housewives together again. Loved Gabby! Some great lines tonight. Overall 8/10. Welcome back DH!

ETA: LAURIE METCALF that's her name...PURE GREATNESS.

Yeah, a good 8/10 episode. Everything was great except for Susan's blah storyline and Bree STILL being the one to get the beefiest storyline. Give Lynette a season long mystery!

I love Bree but I'm getting kinda sick of her always getting the shaft.

She hasn't been happy in AGES!

-STFU Susan. I did laugh when she threw the milkshake at ComaWife.

Forgot to add Lynette "Do I come first to you?" thing was excellence. Great job FH! Nora is OK, but she's going to get annoying QUICK.

The HUMOR is back and that's what I loved. I laughed out loud so many times and I haven't done that with DH in a while.

Loved Gabby and Carlos searching for Xiao Mai and Gaby getting the Chinese food dumped on her and then her peeling away from Carlos when he was going to open up to her about his American dream. Gaby is hilarious. Eva Longoria is absolutely perfect as Gaby. Oh -- loved Gabby laughing at Bree telling the girls she and Orson were waiting until they got married.

Bree and the orgasm was hilarious. I actually kinda like Orson. Very intriguing character and Kyle McLachlan is a great actor.

I was bored with the Susan/Mike stuff. It was sweet but eh ... lol. I kinda like Susan with the ComaHusband (his name slips me). And it was hilarious when she spilled the smoothie on ComaWife Jane. LMAO. Teri Hatcher plays clumsy so well.

I enjoyed the Lynette/Tom story as well. Fun. I love Kirsten Warren. She's hilarious.

Laurie Metcalf ... that woman is brilliant. I love her.

It was nice seeing Edie tonight so much! Her trying to sell Mary Alice's house was hilarious. Loved seeing Kathryn Joosten (Mrs. McCluskey) as well.

Good good episode. DH is back baby!!

Great one-liners.

Loved seeing Edie - and Laurie Metcalf!

Other than that, I'm sort of tired of how Bree always ends up with some pyscho - and I'm not a big Kyle M. fan.

They just introduce WAY too many characters on this show...Seems like Susan is always hitting on a new guy or has a new guy hitting on her every 3 episodes. Way too many names that I have to try and remember as they're brought up in the future.

And get that Saved By The Bell chick off the show - she's annoying in this role.

Susan's had 4 love interests on the show. Mike, Karl, Dr. Ron and now Ian. Now that many over 3 seasons and I don't consider Dr. Ron much of a love interest.

And how many characters did they introduce tonight? 2? Ian and Carolyn Bixby. And Orson's wife Alma, if you want to count her. So not that many.

ANYway, I loved the ep. So much fun, I'm watching it again right now.

Love tonight's premiere. I think this season is gonna be more like the original season. Characters that really needed to go are gone and the much needed humor is back. LOVED IT.

And Darn, Ian & Carolyn's last name was Haynesworth not Bixby.

Ian's last name is Hainesworth but Carolyn's is Bigsby (I thought it was Bixby).
