...Okay it's not like they were talking about making her a regular. The woman has a starring role on another show. What would be the harm in Katherine making some guest appearances on a show that she appeared as a regular on for 3 seasons? I'm sure that plenty of fans would be happy to see that.

I hated Katherine and dont think she is neded but I think it would be neat to see her again as she left kind of abrupt. I think they could tie up some loose ends with her

They're still using the "Juicy" song? Thats kinda lame considering thats the one from a previous season. Anyways great clips. I will miss the show

I'm sad that the show is ending. I have loved every season. I know I'm in the minority, but I totally enjoyed season 2. I liked the darker angle of the show. I didn't like that they killed Edie off, but I did like the rest of season 5. I thought Season 7 was the weakest, only because they brought on Vanessa Williams and didn't give her anything do. And the return of Paul was weak, IMO. But I loved Felicia and Beth.

I wish the show was continuing past season 8, but hopefully it will go out with a bang.

I loved season 2 and didnt think it was bad. It had one of my favorite storylines and that was Bree's downfall and Andrew as the mini-villian. That was good stuff. If anything the worst season for me was season 4.

My guess is that is the whole point as the underlying theme of the promo is pumping up the nostalgia factor. It makes sense that they'd borrow a previous promo song. DH always had great promo song choices.

I also didn't mind season 2 but it's probably my second least favorite. The Bree storyline was a highlight for me but this was EASILY Susan's most unwatchable season. Interesting that season 4 was your worst since most people say it's their favorite, citing Katherine's mystery and the fact that the strike allowed the writers to really focus on where the stories were going. Season 5 is my least favorite simply because the time jump was so wasted and had so much potential.

And the promo uses clips from every season promo, who cares if the song is the season two one?

Season 4 was the last good season IMO. Season 5 had its moments. I found the time warp unneeded, but never the less interesting to watch at times. I found the whole Dave storyline lacking and as I said, killing off Edie was a huge mistake.

I really enjoyed the Bolens in season 6 and I thought season 7 was a nice return to its dark humor roots and Paul and Felicia's returns were more than welcome in my book

Edie trying desperately to cling onto Carlos

Gabrielle married to that sleazy politician

Mike on drugs

Katherine's intro (couldnt stand her) and her lame story of dead daughter via fallen bookcase

Bree running around with a pregnancy pillow, faking having a baby

Yeah, season 4 wasnt all that great. It had some good moments and scenes, but overall the show was pretty lame. It needed a shakeup which is why I loved the 5 year jump

I liked Katherine, Edie and Bree's stuff from season four but wasn't feeling Mike's drug stuff at all and the politician stuff got old fast.

So glad Mary Alice is going to have a big presence in the final season. :)

Yes, the Bree fake pregnancy was SO stupid. I realize she is/was like a Stepford wife who always wants to appear perfect, but after everything she'd been through already with her close-knit friends, it made no sense for her to lie about her teen daughter's pregnancy. And I don't remember the specifics, but didn't the daughter Danielle reclaim the baby and everything was out in the open about the truth and nobody blinked an eye about it?

It all came out after Edie tried to blackmail Bree over it. Bree went and told the girls and they didnt care. They used that info to run Edie out of town

Catching up with Season 7... Best season since 3 and 1. Really enjoying it. Renee doesn't have a HUGE part but they give her stuff to do in every episode and I've liked how they unraveled her past tryst with Tom and used it as a storyline. The baby switch storyline has been great. Very well handled and I love how they don't shy away from Gabrielle's nasty side/actions. Really great. And Ricardo Antonio Chavira should remain shaved forever... he is utterly hot like that. I guessed Beth was Felicia's daughter almost from the beginning but it's been a lot of fun as Paul terrorizes the lane and has them all turn against each other. I thought the riot episode was absolutely fantastic. The show went stunt-crazy after the supermarket episode was so successful and never really managed to create the same emotions with all the tornadoes and planes and crap. But this "mystery"/season arc involves every single person on the street and thus makes it great. I was in tears by the end of the episode. Really liked how it moved on from Paul's revenge to who shot Paul... I've only seen up to the episode right after the riot so I naturally didn't expect them to reveal who shot him yet, though I enjoyed how they made us think it was Mike at first. And Paul found out about Beth and Felicia... I haven't been this hooked since Season 4 (3, if I'm being honest).
