That little brat needs to just die. God! She's like the little girl from "The Bad Seed!"

RoFL!!

Go Bree!

ALMA: "I could be expecting any minute."

BREE: "Really? Are you expecting THIS?" !!*WHAM*!!

Guess I was wrong above. I thought for sure that Bree would think that Orson cheated on her.

Honestly, DH is anything BUT predictable!

HONESTLY!!!

BTW Jane's friend in the hospital...where have I seen that actress before?

DruRocks, you probably remember her as the girl scout mom on "Everbody Loves Raymond" who frequently butted heads with Ray. In one episode, she and Raymond competed against each other for the PERFECT spot to sell girl scout cookies. :)

Pretty boring episode...the gabby, zack, mike, susan, ian stuff sucked big time..tom and lynette were okay...and the only part i found remotely exciting was alma raping orson and bree punching her..This show better step it up a notch...

Honestly i haven't been that impressed with the show since the Bang episode, which i thought was fantastic..

The "rape of Orson" tonight was downright creepy, and I am loving that wicked Dixie Carter. I can't decide who is going to win the Emmy for Guest Star this season: Dixie or Laurie Metcalf.

My money (and hope) is on Laurie. Dixie is good, but I can't wait for her to be gone. It's a complicated emotion lol. Laurie, I had hoped they'd keep around.

Me too: I think the writing is excellent.

However, Alma annoys me! I mean, she is very sneaky and crafy, which is interesting in the face of Bree's blind stupidity at times, but I was still so happy when Bree slugged her.

I also don't mind Zach Young coming back at all. I can see him lusting after Gabrielle while he was a pimply faced teenager, and now that he has all this money he thinks he can win her over. It's really not that HORRIBLE a storyline, LOL.

A lot of Eva's fans think she is being wasted this season, but she does a great job with every line she is handed, and she and Bree got most of the good stuff in Season 2, so I think it's wonderful that Lynette and Susan are getting better storylines this time around.

Now, as for Edie: why can't they do more with her?!?!

Ohhh, so the body was Ian's comatose wife?

Still, booooring. I don't care about Ian. Who is he? Why is he here? He and Susan are dullsville, they have zero chemistry. For that matter, so are Susan and Mike.

Why can't this show create storylines without having a psycho be in virtually every storyline? There's psycho Zach involved with Gabrielle. There's Alma, the psycho ex-wife of psychotic Orson. They mentioned psycho Felicia Tillman tonight, so it appears that she'll probably be returning. Psychos on this show come and go as often as I change my underwear! It's losing it's effect.

So many of the stories are just flat. They're not as bad as they could be, but they're far from being as great as they should be.

The only good thing this show has going for it anymore is the dialogue. It has great dialogue... bad, bad plots though.

ITA that the dialogue is fantastic but the storylines haven't interested me very much for the last 2 seasons.

How many psychos can there seriously be in this 1 small town?

Ian has always bored me, too. On the other hand, I loved Susan & Mike in Season One and wish the writers would at least put some effort into bringing back their romance.

At least there was some movement in the Mike/Paul/Zach plot. I just want Mike's memory to return so he can either accept or reject his son and we can get some form of closure.

I usually like Lynette's stories because they tend to make sense to me and be more down to earth. I'm glad she's going to work at the pizzeria with Tom.

DH is so so good right now. Season 3 is really giving the first season a run for its money right now, IMO.

I'm loving the Bree/Orson/Alma storyline, even though I hate Alma and Orson's mother. I cheered when Bree figured out what Alma had done to Orson and punched her! One of my favorite Bree moments EVER.

On the other hand, I HATE the return of Zach and Paul. There was good closure with them at the end of last season, and I see no need for either of them to be brought back. Gabrielle should be laughing in Zach's face, not indulging him.

I want Kayla gone ASAP. Hate that kid.

Susan/Mike/Ian drag down the show. Whenever they're on, I'm so bored.

And one more thing...MORE Edie!!! What will it take for her to get a real storyline of her own?!

See, now I always like it when Zach and Paul return...and when Felicia returns. Felicia is one of my favorites in the show so if having her means having Zach and Paul, I'm all for it!!

I wonder how much longer we'll have to wait until Mike gets his memory back.

I'm not sure how much Edie I want. She is another one of my favorites, but mainly because her comments are SOOO increidbly funny. I feel like if she were a main character we might see more dramatic scenes and less funny scenes. That could be good AND bad...but right now, I'm just happy with Edie as a supporting character.

That's just the thing. As it stands right now, Edie's barely even a supporting character. She's relegated to one or two scenes per episode, usually not even doing anything all that important. And as for the drama/comedy thing, all of the other actresses balance it out well, why couldn't Nicollette?

Great point. So, bring on the Edie!! lol :)

ITA! Both Edie and Andrew are used in roles that could easily be filled by another character or even a guest star. I'm sorry, but when Andrew's most important scene in an episode consists of a quick shot of him lying in a dark room, watching a sitcom and eating cheese puffs, something is WRONG!

Nicollette and Shawn are more than capable!

I think last night's DH was another good episode. Also Edie has had more airtime this season than ever.

True, but that's not saying very much.
