Desperate Housewives: Discussion Thread

[Port Oak Valley]

I was loving the episode until Susan ruined Bree's plan. The episode was going well, but the show always has to go a little overboard with the Susan character. Overall a good episode though.

The dinner scenes were so funny.

Orson: "He's here, he's queer and we're use to it."

Bree: "If he finishes on time and on budget, I'll throw in surround sounds."

Orson: "He has a mesh tank top that would bring your ex to tears."

Susan: "Life is short....and Walter's is even shorter."

LMAO!!

The show really should have just used the tornado episode in December as its finale...This episode really lacked anything that would create buzz for the show...Hopefully this strike wraps up before February, so we can get some new episodes in April and May..I really don't want tonight to have been the last episode this season...Because the end was LAME...

I was thinking the same thing but I think they aired this episode in order to debut Cashmere Mafia

Bree pimping Andrew out was the funniest thing ever.

Gabby getting caught in the garage was hilarious too.

Pretty good episode. I kinda wish that DH would've killed off a Scavo kid or two.

I loved the episode. I am glad that the Tornado has some pretty dire consequences, and it wasn't just a ploy to shock. The tornado caused plots to move like Ida's death, Carlos going blind, Victor dying, Katherine finding out Adam cheated on her which leads to Dylan finding out the truth, but also had some great character stuff, Lynette and Karen getting closer, Bree and Susan's friendship is more developed. Fantastic stuff!

Finally, the Housewives are back!

What a fun episode! It's fantastic how the tornado events keep resonating on the characters. Finally, the writers gave Gabrielle some substance by having her stay with Carlos even though he is more or less permanently blind. However, I wonder what's in store for Carlos now. Loved Gabrielle and Edie sparring. It was juicy. Also love the bonding between Lynette and Bree. It was nice to see Lynette looking for herself after all that has happened to her. Tim was also great fun and how shocking that Susan caught him with Katherine! Those abuse flashbacks were very well done--Delany acted them greatly and I am really amazed at how well staged it all is. From what we were shown today, Katherine has definetely buried someone, but I think it's too easy that that person is her husband. Also, a candlestick? How very DYNASTY of them. Finally, I am starting to see stuff about Katherine that I really love.

I'm so bored with the show now.

[Soapsuds]

The show was ok Sunday night until the end. Another murder mystery....how original??.....NOT.

[Cheap21]

the show was on hiatus for so long that I forgot what happened before. Why did Catherine's husband leave her?

[Kay]

He left her because he found the letter that her dying aunt dropped under the bed and it told what really happened to her first husband.

Any chance for 4.12's ratings?

Yet another, totally fabu episode yesterday! Great stuff with Mike/Susan/Orson/Bree and Wayne and Dylan was extremely juicy! Can't wait for the next episode!

Wow!!! I just finished watching the May 5th episode online and imo it was the best ep since Season 1.

I loved how Susan & her ex resolved their bitterness, the creepiness between Wayne & Katherine, as well as between Kayla & Lynette, and I even found Orson tolerable for a change.

The only part of the show that didn't work for me was Gabrielle & Carlos because she's become too shallow and one-note. I just don't find her jokes about his blindness funny at all.
