If y'all didn't call Chuck being a psycho from day 1, you're slow as hell. It was too obvious. He was always too much of a good guy to not be psycho.

LOVED Renee with that little girl (name escapes me).

Lynette and her sister were fun, I guess.

LMAO at Gabi..."adultery taught me some valuable life lessons!"

I didnt see it. I thought he was set up to be Bree's final match, especially since this is the end.

That girl's name is Jenny. I kept wondering what her background is bc she looks like she may have a little black in her...lol. Maybe it was that hair

I'm surprised no one has mentioned how obviously ripped off this storyline is from "I Know What You Did Last Summer"... down to even the random note in black ink saying "I know what you did..."

While it's a major rip-off, I'm still kind of enjoying - the Carlos/Susan stuff is nice since we've rarely seen that before, and it is tying in Mary Alice.

Well the movie came out long before this show started... but I'd have to research and see the details of Season 1. I only remember that Mary Alice committed suicide and we had to figure out who Paul and Zach are, and how that fit into the whole picture. I'm saying this storyline specifically is a rip-off of the movie because the stupid note that Bree got says "I know what you did.." - the and note and "I know what you did..." is a blatant rip-off. Same with the group of girls disposing of a dead body and keeping that secret... until the guilt overtakes them slowly.

Oh, and did anyone notice Alec Muser (ex-Del, AMC) in last night's episode?

The overnight ratings have DH not even reaching 9 million viewers. I used to love this show and I am only watching it now because its ending, but gosh it is so BORING! The stories are contrived and laughable. I don't think I can last another 18 episodes.

I'm surprised everyone said the episode was boring--I thought it was a great improvement on last week's installment.

Also, did he really turn psycho? All I saw was a guy who was frustrated for weeks because of his girlfriend's secretive, mysterious behavior; he kept ignoring it, but he couldn't anymore. On top of that, he took a leap of faith and was very nervous about proposing--only to be turned down before he even got the chance to. I don't blame him for erupting the way he did--though he may have taken it a step too far. But this is DH after all, so all this may be null and void by next week. Character development is not exactly their strong point.

Really enjoyed Lee/Renee/Jenny, as well as Lynette and Lydia.

And the Carlos/Susan thing developed nicely. I think they played just a tiny bit of attraction in that van scene (but who can blame Susan, I have always found Carlos to be incredibly hot, especially sans facial hair). But it seems like they're not going to go for an affair.

I probably would barely realize Alec Musser--who did he play?

I find this season soooooo dull (but I've lost interest in the show a long time back). But I don't think you can say it ripped off I know What You Did (particularly since that was hardly an original idea anyway when the film was made--or even the vastly tamer 1970s Lois Duncan book it's from--I doubt even Agaatha Christie used it first).
