Oh my word.... just like daytime.... the behind the scenes antics of the primetime sudser are more interesting that what is going on in front of the camera. If its true I hope she takes him and ABC for that matter to the cleaners. Besides the alleged abuse, they should have never gotten rid of her. I loved Edie.

He wasted Nicolette Sheridan her entire run, not to mention Edie always lost to Susan, even when Susan did some shifty [!@#$%^&*] to her(sleeping with Karl while he and Edie were still together).

It sounds like his ego got in the way of his talent. The first season of Housewives was so solid and so beautifully crafted. His overreliance on the same gimmicks(murder mysteries every season, secret children, etc.) really hurt him. He should have never done another murder mystery after season one. It would have been better if he would have stuck with just continuing the stories about these women.

I know! Like I am beyond caring about it or the characters at this point. The first year was like AMAZING. The 2nd year was a letdown (but I am not sure how it couldn't have been). I felt the 3rd year rebounded.... I really enjoyed the Orson mystery and LOVED Gloria played by Dixie Carter..... but its just been gradually downhill from there. I haven't really watched since before Christmas and keep telling myself ok I should watch this week.... but then I forget all about it. Never used to miss an episode!

I think it originally was planned for 7 years so hopefully they finally end it next year.

And yes, bellcurve..... it should be a crime how much Nicolette and Edie were wasted by Marc Cherry.....

Her crowing moment I think and the brief time where she did actually get Susan good was when she burned her house down.... EPIC! Evil, but absolutely epic. One of my favourite moments of the entire series.

Unfortunately, I can totally see this being true.

Seasons 1 and 3 were great (especially Season 3 was excellent) but it's been a horrible decline since then. I haven't watched since the beginning of Season 6 and, even then, it was sporadic since Season 5. The show has become a total clusterf*ck.

Word to both of you. The mysteries got old REAL fast, and I haven't been interested in any of them at all as much as I was interested in the Mary Alice one. Honestly, I haven't watched the show regularly since season three. I'd watch every now and then for four, but they lost me once they skipped into the future (kiss of death).

Remember in the beginning? When he'd always say that he was warming Edie up to be a main housewife? The fans and the media always wanted to know why Nicollette wasn't given as much time/story as the other four, and he'd always say that she'd get there. She never got there.

    • What will actually change though? Does this mean the sets will be different too? Or how exactly is this gonna look like to the viewers? 
    • I'm not sure Passions is the model to emulate here.
    • Passions had Chad sleeping with his cousin nephew Vincent, ironically played by Daphne Duplaix (disguised as Valerie)

    • @Errol confirmed JFP is back in a non-producing role.  
    • Same tbh. His brother got all the attention as he got older and hotter but Eric I like best. I need to get back to this show.
    • *watching season 5* Me: “I wish they did more with Eric, he’s so cute and sweet.” *Eric slaps the piss out of Diana* Me: “Godddddd, I love Eric!!!!”

    • I do agree that I wish there was more gay representation in terms of singles. I also had hoped we'd get a Black couple since it was a Black soap and I don't know that we've ever seen that on a US soap.  With that said, it's still early days so I can imagine we'll get that at some point. I am impressed they launched with as much LGBT representation considering how US soaps can be.
    • Thank you. I know we're all supposed to see that BTG is progressive when it comes to queer characters, but it's telling that they won't commit to showcasing gay or bi males who are single and looking. That relationship couldn't be any more traditional. Will we ever get a bedroom scene with Smitty and Martin? I have my doubts.
