Members YRBB Posted August 6, 2011 Members Share Posted August 6, 2011 Sad to hear it's ending next season even though I more or less gave up after Season 5. My question is, who will be running the show? I am hoping we'll see a better Housewives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Huntress Posted August 7, 2011 Members Share Posted August 7, 2011 I'll also miss the show. Of course it became weaker and weaker as time went on, but what show doesn't? I loved all the seasons except season 5. That one was dull and the mystery sucked. Killing off Edie was another mistake. She never lived up to her full potential. Seriously, the cast has always been way too large, especially in season 6. For example, I never understood why they introduced Ana Solis and promoted her to a starring role only to phase her out after a few episodes. Then she was written off mid-season. I thought she was a great character and way more interesting than those talentless Scavo children. The wonderful Alfre Woodard was also terribly misused, as was Katherine whose character was written so inconsistently. I loved the Applewhites, the Mayfairs and the Bolens but because the cast was already so crowded the writers obviously couldn't use them properly. My favorite couple will always be Gabrielle and Carlos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cheap21 Posted August 7, 2011 Members Share Posted August 7, 2011 What homage will he pay to Edie? Flashbacks of her being killed off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted August 7, 2011 Members Share Posted August 7, 2011 "Paying homage" scares me because for this show that can easily mean killing everybody off in a fiery stunt. Or, better yet, watch it all be a dream. Mary Alice didn't really kill herself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted August 7, 2011 Members Share Posted August 7, 2011 Maybe like a end of the Newhart show, it was all a dream of Mary Alice's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted August 7, 2011 Members Share Posted August 7, 2011 soapsindepthabc Soaps In Depth ABC Marc Cherry tells us that he had lunch with Susan Lucci. She probably won't be doing Housewives, but "hopefully something in the future.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 7, 2011 Members Share Posted August 7, 2011 Season 2 was just heinous. They're lucky that they lasted after that. I also hate what Marcia Cross did to her face. It's hard to believe someone who was so vibrant on Melrose Place turned into such a lifeless mannequin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members quartermainefan Posted August 8, 2011 Members Share Posted August 8, 2011 This is something Mary Tyler Moore has to be proud of. Her show stayed strong right to the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members psychofan Posted August 8, 2011 Members Share Posted August 8, 2011 ^ I'm sure that people will argue with me on this, but I think "Friends" accomplished that task as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members YRBB Posted August 8, 2011 Members Share Posted August 8, 2011 That's a great promo. Really goes for the nostalgia, which is a very smart move. FRIENDS kinda lost it in its last two seasons but it was still a very good, entertaining show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted August 8, 2011 Members Share Posted August 8, 2011 I like to see shows go out on top. MTM lost a lot of its audience the last couple of years but the show always maintained its quality along with wonderful characters and terrific acting. I look at a show like ER which I loved its first maybe 7 years. Then they got rid of one core character too many, the one that sort of held the show together and relied on gimmicks its last few years to succeed. It sort of got back its identify its last year but it really deteriorated its last few years. I think DH has had a good long run and whats wrong with a show ending? Everything ultimately runs its course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted August 8, 2011 Members Share Posted August 8, 2011 Nicolette was on The Today Show and she was asked if she would come back for the final season. She looked very bitter about it and said her character is dead. Kathie Lee said I guess that means no to which Nicolette didnt respond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
