    I will miss Edie... hide « show »

    I have been watching this show since first season. I think it brings something new, it is like soap with more qualified story and characters so that everyone started to watch. To be honest the first season is the best one. And unfortunately the last one is a disaster. I think they should end the show with a great finale without making the series more foolish.
    And for the next season there will be no Edie. When I first heard it, I definitely didn't believe it. She is one of the best characters in the show; there will be no amusement without her.

    Thoughts about seasons hide « show »

    I just love this show since the beginning even i just didn't really liked season 5 :s
    For me writers didn't used well the "five year later" thing, which could have been so amazing !! It was a kind of boring, nothing really happened this year, too bad !

    My favorite season is the fourth, I just loved the tornado episode, my favorite episode of all TV shows !! The 4x03 was amazing too, just the season finale that was just Amazing

    About seasons 1 to 3, I would just say that season 1 was one of the best (it's maybe the funniest) the second was a little boring too, but even good and the third was very interesting !!

    Anyway, just hope season 6 will be better than season 5 !!

    great show hide « show »

    i watched desperate housewives from season 1 which was by far the best season. i gradually lost interest with each passing season and was angered buy the 5 year jump in last years finale. however the stories this year have brought me back. the dave story is interesting and intreguing and i can't wait to see how it will end. i also feel that this season has stopped trying so hard to be overly dramatic and focused more on the ocmedic side of the show. i like it better because after the talk about the first season mystery the mysterys afterward seemed to get more and more rediculous to get viewer attention. all in all i think the time jump was the best move the writers could have made

    Prime time soap with something a little extra special hide « show »

    This is a soap plus. It's definitely a soap with its focus on marriages, affairs, gossip, secrets, lies, and a disproportionate number of stalkers and serious car crashes. But pretty much every episode is also good for at least a few laughs and a number of wry smiles, and the writing can sometimes be quite insightful. I'm just waiting on tonight's finale to season five. It's been a good season, and I'll likely tune in for season six to see how it goes. Although I'm sad there will be no more Edie Brit - the funniest sauciest character, who was recently axed from the show.

    I love Desperate Housewives!!! hide « show »

    I recently became a huge fan of Desperate Housewives! I watched all 4 seasons in about a month and now I am watching every Sunday! I don't really have a favorite character. I like different things about each character. I familiarize mostly with Susan...clumsy and wants to find love. I was literally crushed when the 5th season started and found that her and Mike divorced (I have to remind myself it's not real lol!). I want to see them together. I love Lynnette's outspokenness and spunk. I would love to be more like her. Gabby is hilarious with the way she thinks, but she always has something honest and real to say. I wasn't a fan of Edie at first and as her character softened I began to really like her. And now she's gone :( I don't like how sneaky Kathryn is becoming though...only because I don't want her with Mike! lol...I love how much of a lady Bree is and how she can keep it together even in the hardest moments. They are all very strong women and I absolutely love the show. I really hope this show has at least 5 more seasons!
