Desperate Housewives

What a wonderful way to end a very good season of Desperate Housewives. The last few episodes have been quite boring in my opinion because of Bree's absence. I'm glad that she is back. She has been missed. The cast is at top-form here. Finally Susan marries Mike. They are ment for each other. I have been not so sure of this "Victor plot" but after watching this episode things became more juicier! What Gaby did with Carlos at her wedding was a terrible act from her. She kissed him? She could have waited a little longer. I did not like that. The episode ends with a dramatic cliffhanger and it may be the end for one of our characters. A very good finale, let's hope that DH can continue its good job to season 4 and beyond.

The episode was just great!!! Edies suicide was a huge shocker. And i mean that uslly id guess these things but not this, she's a great character and hope she doesn't die but i think she will. If she doesn't she'll completley change again!!! Susan has funny lines in this like asking the priest what are you doing tonight! Liked their marriage it needed to be done. Gabby should just tell victor to get lost i mean its gabby she can take care of herself. Really like lynnetes charcter now, her mother will b interesting! bree is back which was just GREAT!!!! can't wait for season 4!!

I loved this episode. Gabby getting married only to find out that the man she married keeping secrets from her, and his apology was only what she wanted to hear so she'll marry him.



Carlos getting to know the truth about Edie still being on the pill, and breake up with her..



Gabby and Carlos hooking up at her wedding(!)



Bree pretending to be pregnant so no one will know Danielle is pregnant. Susan and Mike tying the knot, secretly in the middle of the night



And of course, Edie hanging her self.. She probably won't die, but it certainly could have being nice :) lol

This episode was so good! One of the bests of season three! I don't understand all the hatred. So much is going on! Lynette has learned details about her cancer and her mother comes to visit! Her mother has experience with cancer and she has been estranged from Lynette. Gabby is getting married to Victor, who she learns only married her to bring in the Latino votes. :( She gets back together with Carlos! Bree returns for Gabby's wedding, pregnant. However, she's just faking it to cover up Danielle's pregnancy. Susan and Mike finally get married! YAY! This all just leads up to the amazing fourth season. Perfect episode!

This season finale was great! This is the last episode I saw cause I'm still waiting for season 4 to come in my country! It was a fabulous episode! I'm so sorry for Gabrielle with that stupid husband of hers! And I'm happy for Susan and Mike but sad for Susan's kid with her love problems with Edie's cousin! I'm so glad Gabrielle and Carlos got together! Well... they did it on the strange way but we now know that there is a very big, huge and gigantic love between them! I'm so sorry for Lynette! It's so sad! :( :( :(



When Edie hung herself I was just stunned! But I know she'll be back! I just can't wait for new season! For the season 4!!!

The beginnig with the finale scene was a great idea! And the writing was great! With that we have a lot of funny scenes. For exemple when Gabi push the present and Susan jumps over it! XD And when Gabi laugh in the table that freaky way! Lynette storyline is my favorite at the moment. She and Tom do it so damn go together! They are perfect, they are the only couple that I think that really transmits the feeling! Anyway, I think that Stella is a very bad idea, I believe that I won't like her there in season 4! That will rest importance to Lynette and Tom relationship! I love their scenes together.



Eddie scenes were great again, I will miss her in season 4! I mean that now she was changing. She was kinda a "good" lovely person in the final of season 3 and I liked her and Carlos together! I know that Gabi and Carlos were supposly to be together. It wasn't good see what happen between then. They could have got a good ending.



Gabi storyline is not my favorite in the moment, I liked her with Carlos but I don't like her with Victor at all! They are not a perfect couple, they know each other since only a little time! I don't got a lot the whole father-son thing! It was kinda strange.



Bree didn't too much in the episode! So I cannot say something about her! Anyway, someday I'm sure someone will touch her and will notice! XD



Susan final wedding was a beautiful thing to Mike! She did a great act for him, she did a remarkable sacrifice from him! That is just a big act of love!



The final narration was perfect, as usually! XD Eddie final was touching, anyway, I'm sure that the hang thing will broke!

Wow, what a great season finale. Although I'm not sure if it topped last year's, it definitely elivered. I was surprised in so many ways. Bree's not pregnant?! My shcok turned to a smile. This was so typically Bree- hiding her daughter's pregnancy as her own. I was, however, really shocked and saddened by Gabby's husband. Marrying Gabby to get the Latin Ameican vote? That is just so... disgusting. Although I'm not sure why he had that ticket officer beat up for a woman he didn't love... oh well. I so hate him right now. But moving on to the real shocker... Ha, I keep using the word "shock." But that's what this episode was- shocking. Anyways, Edie's suicide. I din't realize how much she loved Carlos. This was really saddening, and a shock I caught just barely a whiff of coming. But if I haden't seen Nicolette's appearance on Regis and Kelly that week, I would have been totally shocked. It looks pretty definite that she's dead- but I guess we'll have to wait until next season. I'll be counting the days...

So. Here's my thing about Desperate Housewives. It's a decent show, the women are gorgeous, the guys are hot, it is set in relatable anonymous suburbia. Great. But I don't watch it because I love it. I don't watch it because I think that the narration, plot-lines, writing, or acting are superb. Au contraire, they're actually often a bit predictable. Don't get me wrong, everything flows, it's humorous and smart and interesting...but it's the best show. I watch Desperate Housewives because it's addictive. I just need to know what happens next; I need to understand and tie off all the storylines. This particular episode was good. I love the Carlos Gabriele plotline...they have a great dynamic and I wish that they would just be together again. But there just was not a lot going on. Great to see Brie again, but I don't really care/wasn't surprised that Susan (annoying) and Mike got married or that Edie offed herself. I know that's harsh, but it's the truth. She is a conniving, sad woman, and while it is unfortunate that she tried to commit suicide, I don't see why it had to be the center of the episode. They should have played more into Lynette and her cancer, or somehow brought back Rick. They should've saved some of the plot lines for this closing episode. For a season finale, I am not impressed.

Bloody Hell!



what a fanstastic episode forgrt four weddings and a funeral this more like two weddings and a baby!



it was GREAT to see Bree and Orson again - her entrance was superb "Bree brought the gift... and the bracelet too."



Lynette was upsetting to watch obviously there is tension in the family which has been previously hinted at. i like her mum though and i hope things work out. Gabrielle is insane to marry Victor he is a total idiot and is using her for her image. she needs someone else. At last susan and mike are happy. its so nice to see tears swelled up in my eyes at the pleasent secret wedding. Now Edie - she has taken the short-way out. but is she really dead? we'll have to wait and see. i hope not...

I thought it was a great episode. It was filled with a lot of drama and suspense. A lot of secrets were revealed and it was full of the unexpected. It was great when Gaby and Carlos got together again. It's what I've been waiting for the whole season. The wedding between Susan and Mike was very sweet. Lynette's mom was amusing and fun to watch. I shocked that Bree was not really pregnant, but it seems she and Orson are going to raise the baby together. That should be interesting. It was a total shock when Edie hung herself, but it was a great cliffhanger.

I loved this episode, from start to finish. I knew the Victor character wasn't the nicest guy around. Poor Gabby, she should've stayed with Carlos. But that's okay, I can wait until next year. Also, Eva Longoria showed yet again what a great actress she is. All of the other housewives have been nominated (even Teri Hatcher and that's saying something) and she's the one who deserves in the most. She brings such humor the show and when it's time to be serious...she's damned serious. Lynette's mother is quite a woman. I already love to hate her. Lynette should listen to her mother. Mommy knows best...sometimes. The whole Lynette cancer thing, I saw coming from season one. I was like, "The working mom with four kids...yeah, cancer for her." But this is good because it will bring her back closer to Tom after that Rick thing. Bree is pregnant. I'm kind of mad about that since she was JUST pregnant in real life but they don't write it in until AFTER she has the baby. Talk about bad timing. Oh well, she's not REALLY pregnant. I figured that out the second I saw the bump, "She can't be pregnant...Oh! Danielle!" I called it. Susan is my least favorite housewife. Annoying and clumsy. I find no reason for her to be on the show. Her love life is an the same crap over and over again. I'm getting sick of it. Anyway, she FINALLY gets married to Mike. That was nice. Now, I feel bad for poor Mike. Now, comes Edie. I think she's dead. But she did only use a think little scarf. Nothing big. Carlos to the rescue? I'm not sure. I'll have to wait and see that. I like Edie, but if she dies I won't be that torn up about it because she's done her time on the show. If she wants to stay...I'm okay with that too. Great season 3 finale.

Series finale of the third series of Desperate Housewives!!



The whole of the third series has been leading upto the events in this episode: Gaby and Victor's Wedding, Bree's return, Lynette's realisation of her illness and Susan and Mike's wedding, the latter being the focus of the entire four series.



The episode attempted to tie up some major storylines, which it did but also created many new storylines to be run on for future series.



The last few minutes were the most shocking of the series, featuring the death (or apparent death) of one of the major stars.



All i can say is roll on series 4!!

Ilene (to Edie): “You’re gonna end up alone and dead like me”.



Yeah, it’s one of those lines that really comes back to bite a certain recipient in the ass but it’s also rather funny because while 80% of the housewives aren’t alone for the foreseeable future, one of them is having more than a bleak time and that’s Edie.



For the past seven episodes, Edie has worked every trick in the book to get Carlos to view her as more than a sex object and her only success so far has now resulted in her having to pretend that she wants to have a child with him so that he might eventually fall in love with her.



Of course that plot was always destined for failure because when a guy is positioning you for fertility purposes rather than foreplay and doesn’t spend much time taking an interest in your own personal comfort, it’s safe to say that you’re living in a dream world and for Edie; her wake up call is more than hellish.



Hey even her dead mother is having fun at her expense during a dream sequence as Edie tells her to shut up and her wise enough mum is quick to point out that tricking men isn’t a smart tactic.



There’s a delightful piece of casting with K Callan taking on the role of Ilene and using her limited time onscreen to great effect. We know that Edie and her mum had difficulties but it turns out that mother really does know best after all.



Naturally then Edie’s pretty flawed plan of faking an interest in conceiving would then crash and burn as while she went to Gabby and Victor’s wedding, Carlos paid the snotty paper boy with cash from Edie’s purse whilst finding her birth control pills.



If you’re gonna lie about wanting to get pregnant, then it’s best to probably hide your birth control pills in a place where the man you’re deceiving isn’t very likely to find them and obviously that place is not in your purse. Here I was thinking that Edie was a lot smarter than that.



Predictably enough Carlos doesn’t even give Edie a chance to properly explain herself and more or less causes a brief commotion at Gabby’s wedding by dumping her in public. Most people were probably jumping for joy with Edie given her marching orders but the way she deals with this rejection is quite shocking.



The last time someone rejected Edie, she took a great comfort in burning her love rival’s house whereas this time her method of losing another man is end the episode by trying to hang herself and we’ll have to wait until the first episode of Season Four to find out whether or not Edie was successful.



The chances of her failing in her attempt to end could be due to the fact that Nicolette Sheridan is contracted along with the rest of the ladies until 2011 and as a viewer, I’d like to see Edie live and eventually snare a man who isn’t cast off from the other wives and who genuinely wants. Is that wrong of me?



As for Carlos, his method of Karma biting him in the ass (remember he did the opposite to Gabby in Season One of what Edie did to him) is just to get drunk, moan and snog the face of a just married Gabby and while Eva and Ricardo usually have great chemistry that kiss between them was pretty lacklustre to put it mildly, even if it was Gabby who initiated it.



So why after just pledging “I do” to Victor would Gabby want to smooch with the man she’s spent the best part of a year trying to ruin and shake off at the same time? Simple, once again despite hooking onto a rich bloke with prospects, she overlooked one major flaw – Victor is now a complete and utter jerk!



The arrival of Victor’s father sees the newly elected Mayor’s ambitions go from the local politics to state political as Milton’s influence over his son is stronger than Gabby’s and when Milton managed to make allowances for his son’s aggressive opposition of Gabby trying to stop his political, the girl in some ways almost got tricked into marrying him.



Some things you really don’t want to hear is your newfound husband discussing how it was smart to marry a Latina girl due to how vote wise it would benefit him, not do you want to hear him even think about trying to control you in anyway. Statements like this makes Victor into an even bigger dick than Tom in this episode.



More importantly instead of ripping Victor a new one over his private remarks about her, the usually bolshy Gabby just handles it by smooching with Carlos and as I’ve mentioned up ahead, it’s pretty passionless too. Gabby rarely has moments where her anger or confrontational manner is justified so when it is, why doesn’t she take it and let Victor know that she take his crap?



However just because I’m starting to dislike Victor, do not think for one second I am getting on the “should Gabby and Carlos get together” train because while Eva and Ricardo have chemistry, Marc Cherry needs to give us even more reasons as to why they should be together again. Post divorce Carlos has grown up whereas Gabby has definitely not and we’ve not nearly had enough signs that Gabby actually loves Carlos when you think about it.



Another person who needs to grow up a bit more is Tom because if any character has devolved in this season, it’s been him and despite one moment where he gives up his tennis membership to help Lynette pay for chemotherapy, he’s still as immature about certain things than ever.



The main reasons why Tom deserves a bollocking this week is because he went behind Lynette’s back and borrowed money from her mother and then had the audacity to demand that Lynette forgive her mother as a punishment for the whole Rick debacle as well. Even an avid Tom defender has got to have a problem with that. You don’t forgive someone who you have deep seated emotional problems with just because your husband is stupid to go behind your back and gets money from them.



Tom being an insensitive prick towards Lynette is one thing but the arrival of her mother Stella is quite the other as the issues surrounding her and Lynette are more or less out in the open quickly and to make sure the tension between them is kept going, Kayla mentions the effect Rick had on Lynette.



If you were trying to make amends with your daughter then using Rick wouldn’t be a good way of going about it. Stella uses Lynette’s crush on the crush as a means of justifying her own rotten behaviour to Lynette as a child and even as a means of taking away some moral high ground from her daughter. You can’t exactly blame Lynette for hating her mother and a lot of what Stella says is excuses rather than apologies or explanations.



Lynette having a crush on someone outside of her husband doesn’t make her a bad person, especially how much she wanted to act on it and had the will power not to. Telling Stella who had breast cancer while Lynette was a teen that she deserved is a bit vindictive but given what we’ve learned about Stella, it’s still easy to see why Lynette has contempt for the woman. With great performances between Polly Bergin and Felicity Huffman, the Scavo plot is riveting.



Meanwhile with Gabrielle more or less marrying the wrong man, Susan manages to find that being with the right one still has it’s pressure points as delaying her wedding has given her fresh ideas to show the neighbours that she can have something ever bit as lavish as Gabby can.



O course it’s Mike feeling the financial as determined to not disappoint Susan he takes it on himself to start working very late into the night to make more and more money for the big day and being struck by guilt, Susan gets a great idea during Gabby’s wedding to stop Mike from working himself to death.



Using Julie to pretend to be a customer to lure him out into the woods would’ve had a far more grisly fate in another TV series but here Mike is soon given a suit to wear and that minister from Gabby’s wedding is more than happy to marry him and a rather stunning Susan with Julie as a witness and even if you’re not a shipper, at least their wedding is cute and romantic without being too mawkish.



Now that Susan and Mike are finally together and married, the biggest thing is how the writers can find other storylines for them that don’t overtly concentrate on their marriage all the time. Nor do I want to sit through them briefly separating and no pregnancies just yet. Elsewhere with marriages and lives hanging in the balance, the much anticipated return of Bree almost feels like an afterthought in comparison because while I’m thrilled to see her back, she really did have that much to do except shock the girls who are now under the impression that her and Orson are parents to be while the rest of us know otherwise.



Hands up if you were even remotely surprised that Bree is faking her pregnancy while the really knocked up Danielle gets to moan in a convent until she gives birth and Bree passes off the child as her own? Only if you hadn’t been paying attention to the entire season would this have surprised you but most people accurately guessed that Bree was faking it.



How ridiculous would it have been for Bree to have become pregnant when Marcia Cross’ real life pregnancy forced her to take a reduced role this season? Bree’s attempts of getting Julie off her scent by sending her an email in Danielle’s name are funny enough and it doesn’t surprise me in the slightest that Orson is supporting Bree’s crazy ass plan too. Also, other than that welcome back you dysfunctional band of loveable freaks.



Also in “Getting Married Today”



Housewife of the week: Gabrielle getting impatient with Susan and Lynette over Bree being late. Suffice to say when Bree returns, it’s never empty handed.



Gabrielle (to Susan/Lynette): “She better not have come empty handed”

Bree: “Oh I didn’t”

Gabrielle: “Holy crap”.



I’ve just noticed thanks to this episode; nearly all girls are wives again, until Gabby divorces Victor or becomes a widow.



Carlos: “Well I don’t want to make a scene. You’ll vow ‘Til death do us part’, I’ll bust out laughing, people will stare”

Gabrielle: “Reception starts at four”.



Mike (to Susan): “You in a wedding dress with birds circling over your head? Again not liking those odds”.



Dress wise, am I the only one who thought that Susan looked a lot better than Gabrielle? She went for something more simple and it worked to her favour.



Victor (to Milton): “She’s way out of your league”

Gabrielle: “Honey, he’s a multi-millionaire, he runs my league”.



Carlos: “You’re not a spring chicken anymore and those eggs are not farm fresh”

Edie: “Stop comparing me to poultry”.



There didn’t seem to be that many Nissan endorsements with this episode than in previous ones.



Kayla: “If I tell you, can I watch a really good grown up movie?”

Stella: “Only if it’s a good grown up story”.



Isn’t it a bit weird that no-one parental from Susan and Gabby’s family were at their weddings?



Lynette: “Stop comparing us, I never did what you did”

Stella: “Yeah you just wanted to”.



Orson: “It’s almost time for the six month size”

Bree: “Don’t remind me”.



Nothing in regards to next season’s mystery popped up in this finale, which really was odd.



Reverend (to Susan/Mike): “Are you ready?”

Julie: “Are you kidding? They’ve been dragging this out for three years”.



Chronology: About a week since “What Would We Do Without You”.



Wow when it comes to finales this show has finally outdone itself. Despite one or two niggles , “Getting Married Today” is a stunning way of ending a season that really has been quite busy at every turn and with so many exciting plots left dangling, next season is a must see.

i just watched the eppisode and i love it,



i cant belive bree's going to raise her grand-child as her own, is eddie going to surive because she hung herself, will lynette live becuse she has cancer. and most of all, susan and mike finally get married



:D



:D





:D



can't wait for the next season,

really exicted

Even i knew what was going to happen , i liked it alot . great ending , poor Edie , i liked her so much, i wish she still alive , but i don't think so , and i don't think she commited a suicide , maybe somebody forced her to do that . . . . .

every thing is possible in Desperate housewives . . . .



So I heard Season 4 will be aired on the 23rd of september , i hope it will be as great as the first three and even better . . . .

This is the reason why I watch this show, this was a fantastic episode and I didnt realise how much I missed Bree until I saw those legs...She did look stunning and already back with a secret but she isnt the only one with a secret as Victor, Lynette, Edie and Gaby were all hiding something from their loved ones. I wont go too into it. Lynette's estranged mum turns up with a few home truths and wasnt the ending a shocker...I didnt think she was that kind of person and Bree pretending to be pregnant! DUN DUN DUN!!!!! Susan and Mike's impromptu wedding was sweet and they are good together and Susan looked great. Actually, all the housewives looked phenomenal this episode. Now I wonder what the mystery will be next season?

Anybody who thought Gabby was going to start a new life with a new husband is sadly mistaken. Come the Fall, Gabby and Carlos will be back together and bring down Victor and his father.



Edie should be back on...I think she was testing the weight of the rope and hanging from her hands. We'll see.....



I liked the Bree angle....



Susan and Mike FINALLY! Geez it's about time.



I dunno about anybody else but does Tom look like his is a bit "crazier" this year than the other seasons? He has that wild look in his eyes. Lynette will be fine but I think the pizza business is going to go bye-bye. It just doesn't fit in the show.

I thought it was great! It was a definite jaw dropper! You had no idea what would happen next and that's why I love the show. Of course it left you wondering what the heck would happen next, but what great show doesn't? I'm still wondering what's actually going to happen to Edie, or what's going to go wrong with Bree trying to hide her daughter etc. I can't wait until next season!

I thought that this episode was one of the best episodes of the season you had no idea what was going to happen next! When we saw that Bree was pregnant I was like what is going on and then when you see that she is not really pregnant and that she was just doing it for Danielle! I could not believe that Victor just wanted to marry Gabby for the votes he would get! They left you on a real cliffhanger I mean is Eddie dead or what happened would she really hang herself! I loved Lynette's mom she was hilarious! When she said where do you get off having cancer and not telling me! Then with Susan and Mike getting married in the woods and then when the minister asks if they are ready and Julie says "Are you kidding? They've been dragging this thing out for three years!" I thought that was funny! I can not wait until next season especially because they left the last episode in a cliff hanger!

I can't believe it when I was watching this episode. Damn, did it have a shocking of an ending. I seriously thought Victor was a decent guy but then they do a whole 360 & show his real intentions. I didn't click about Bree, should have known but I wasn't very fond of her daughter. I thought that was sweet that little wedding ceremony Mike & Susan had. So glad they have finally worked things out. I always thought they suited one another. I couldn't believe what Edie ended up doing at the end of the episode. I didn't think it would be so bad that she would turn to suicide. We'll just have to wait for next season to find out the outcome.

This tied up some loose ends but creating some ones. A surprise wedding. A nasty break up. Gabby in for a surprise. Lynette's mom's back. So is Brie and Brie's got secrets of her own. I really like the parallels between Lynette and her mom. Gabby turn to Carlos in a time of anger at her new husband. Tom standing his ground in accepting his mom-in-laws help. I loved that Susan remembered what was important, Mike, not the wedding or what others thought of the wedding. Edy, caught in a web of lies and schemes, but will they be her breaking point. It looks like it.

This was quite a good season finale. I think that the season 1 finale was the best, season 2 finale was terrible but this was excellent. I think the Bree storyline will be really good for season 4, I can't wait to see what happens. I'm also looking forward to seeing more of Lynette's mom and finding out if Edie's dead or not, even though I'm almost certain she's alive. As for Susan, I loved her wedding but I don't think everything will go great with Mike. I hope Gabrielle divorces Victor, because I hate him! Can't wait for season 4!

So:

-Gabrielle gets married to Mayor Evil, but is already regretting it because he clearly just sees her as a way to boost his likeability. So she runs into Carlos' arms. This is just in time to keep Carlos on this show, since...

-Carlos figures out that Edie is still on the pill. It's an ironic point, since he did the opposite to Gabby way back in season one. I enjoyed it.

-Mike and Susan get married, hopefully ending the "will they/won't they" forever. And Andrew's right, Julie's hair looks horrible.

-Bree is back! I knew as soon as I saw her that she wasn't really pregnant. I am so good at calling these things! Of course, I didn't call that...

-Edie hangs herself. I'm pretty sure she's off, but you never know...

as season finale's go, creator/producer mark cherry didn't leave us with the "cliffhanger" that he did at the end of seaon one, but as far as entertainment, character development, drawing us in and forcing us to tune in again in september, he knocked it out of the ballpark! he never fails us when it comes to seaon finales. i measure the top two points of how good an episode is by the number of times i say "holy sh*t" aloud while watching it. 2/5ths of a point, and they got 4 from me out of this one! bree returned with her her new husband from her mysterious "honeymoon", and in reality, marcia cross took some time off from the show to have a real baby, so showing up with a "baby bump" wasn't a big surprise, as we were teased in the promotional commercials. but the writers made me do a DOUBLE TAKE when we found out that bree WASN'T pregnant, but pretending so that she could raise her granddaughter as her own daughter, avoiding the embarrassment of the neighbors finding out that danielle had gotten pregnant when sleeping with edie's nephew, who will undoubtedly return next seaon to ruin her plans. gabby marries victor, just before finding out that he only married her to get the latino vote for his run for the governor, that she spposes. when she realizes that whe was duped by her new husband and his father - played my mike farrell of M*A*S*H fame - she sleeps with her ex-husband carlos in the mansion. what a wedding day! will she get back with him next season, now that he dumped edie for lying to him? lynette's mother shows up to save the day, because with the debt that they accrued opening up a new restaurant, they couldn't afford the $10,000 deductable that she needs for the cancer treatment. although she keeps her sense of humor regarding her ability to survive lymphoma, she suddenly finds herself forced to let the parent she always hated get to know her grandchildren, as a divine penance for allowing herself to fall in love with rick, and realizes that she is more like her mother than she cares to admit to herself. susan sees that mike can't afford the wedding she would have had with the wealthy english guy when mike takes off nighltly for extra money in the plumbing business, but also realizes that love is what matters, and she's getting the marriage she wanted, and that's worth losing the wedding she wanted. so she surprises him at the place where he proposed, with a minister. that was sweet, although i don't see how the writers are going to keep susan interesting next season now that she has her "happily ever after". and the ending? i had forgotten about the teasers in the promos and i WASN'T ready for that. holy sh*t...

personaly i loved this season finale!!! with bree comming back in this episode made it much more enjoyable because theres another big storyline ready for season 4! shocked that her daughter is prego and not her lol



and gabby wedding is so sad as it was just a scam to get victor to being mayor! urgh! hate him now! im glad gabby cheated on him with carlose! oh! and OMG!! cant belive edie hung her self!!! i loved her she was great!! i hope shes not dead! anyway a really good season finale as always from despo housewives!! cant wait till season 4! woo!!

Like the person who commented below me, not only on this finale, but also the Grey's Anatomy finale, I agree that this episode was not very good. Marcia Cross returned, which was excellent, along with her little secret of pretending to be pregnant, when her daughter is actually the one that's pregnant. Lynette may have lymphoma, so her brash mother arrives. Gabrielle gets married, but after learning Victor's secret, kisses Carlos, who recently learned of Edie's birth control situation (seems to me we already had a birth control situation in Season 1...). At the end of the episode, Edie attempts to hang herself.

If I would have been writing for "Desperate Housewives", I would have kept Rick around until the season finale, and I would have had him kiss Lynette towards the end of the episode. Either before or after Gabrielle's wedding. I probably would have kept Gabby's wedding the same, Bree's return the same, and Susan's wedding the same actually...as cheesy as it was. I would not have had Edie try to hang herself. How unrealistic! Of course, what can you expect from "Desperate Housewives"?

Just like "Grey's Anatomy", there's four months until the premiere. Put those to good use, DH!

I think it can safely be said at this point. Desperate Housewives has jumped the shark. I was not at all pleased with this year's season finale (must be an ABC thing).



Bree's long-awaited (and for a reason) return was interesting, I'll admit. Frankly, I didn't see the pregnancy twist coming, so at least the show managed to surprise me on that one. Although, I must say, I was a little disappointed because I thought I wouldn't have to see that little wretch Danielle again for a while, but I digress. Bree's back and I'm very happy about that.



Lynette's new storyline with the cancer does show promise, and if any of the actresses could pull it off perfectly, it would be Felicity Huffman. However, for Lynette, the season finale focused more on her rocky, at best, relationship with her mother. Speaking of which, what is it with the housewives' mothers? I think having them all be neglectful and selfish is just a bit much. Anyway, hopefully, this is the beginning of a good, meaty storyline for Lynette.



I prayed it wouldn't happen, but unfortunately it did. Gabrielle married old man Victor (his father must have been five when he knocked some girl up). Fortunately, though, it looks like the union won't be lasting very long, as it seems that Victor only married Gaby because of her race and the impact it would have on his constituency. I loved the kiss between Carlos and Gaby, but I don't see them reuniting all that quickly, even if she does dump the geriatric jerk.



Speaking of weddings, how about that pukefest woodsy ceremony of Susan and Mike's. Seriously, it was all I could do to hold in my dinner when I had to watch those two tie the noose. If only they could just sail away into the sunset never to return. I know it'll never happen, but I can dream.



Finally, the episode's big shocker of a cliffhanger. After being dumped (and rather harshly) by Carlos, a depressed Edie hung herself. All I have to say is she damn well better be alive next season. Edie is my favorite character on the whole show, and I will **** bricks if now that she's finally gotten time on the frontburner like she deserves, she's killed off. Honestly, if she does turn out to be dead when the show returns in the fall, I'll be so disgusted that I don't know if I'll even be able to keep watching. I'm particularly furious, because suicide is completely out of character for Edie. It's totally unbelievable to me that she would ever off herself, especially for something like being dumped by a man. I'll say this, no matter what happens, the writers have their work cut out for them next season.



Now, my review of Season 3, as a whole. The season started out great, and it was definitely a breath of fresh air after the convoluted and mostly boring Season 2. Things kept on getting better until the action finally climaxed with the end of the Orson/Alma/Monique mystery. All the momentum the show had gained suddenly came to a screeching halt as soon as Marcia Cross left for maternity leave. Really, since those episodes, nothing has been able to hold my interest on the show. Even the season finale was uneventful for the most part. With that said, the third season was certainly not a failure, as I found the first two-thirds of it to be excellent. At this juncture, though, I think it's pretty obvious that Desperate Housewives has jumped that dreaded proverbial shark.

OMG all the women are my favorites but Edie shouldn't have hung herself! She didn't have to do it!! She must have loved Carlos TOO much. I just want to say that this is not right for me as a viewer, not right for the show, and not right for the characters. I'm sorry I want all 5 women to stay on the show. Ok i know I am not talking about Lynette getting cancer but I know over time she will get better. They won't let Lynette go & I know it. Lynette is the best 1. But why Edie??? She is good too! I'll just know next time if she is successful in killing herself. I hope not! Hang in there Edie! oops! I mean stay alive for us all!!

Bree is back! finally! seeing her there made me realize how much I missed her! Anyway, this episode starts and finishes with a wedding, Gaby and Victor's first which is the bitter one because we know that Victor is not in love with Gaby and he is only using her for his political career, the good thing is that Gaby learned the truth, the bad part is that she was alredy married... The other wedding was Susan and Mike's, finally they got married... after 3 seasons of Edie, Mrs. Huber, criminal records, Zach Young, coma, Ian, they finally walked down the aisle.. well, not exactly, they got married in an improvised wedding... finally happened. Now the shocking and sad part... Edie commited suicide... Is she really dead??? Will someone tell us before september??, I remember back in season 1 when Rex died people thought he was still alive until the second season started... Well, I hope someone helps Edie in the last minute, if they did it with C-note on Prison Break, Why not with her?, She is a great character, they can't kill her!

Bree is back, Edie's gone (maybe).

I was partially right, Gabrielle did marry Victor, but soon discovered how he feels about the marriage, and took immediate retaliation with the help of Carlos, I bet we will see them together as a couple pretty soon.

Bree is back, and it was a quite disappointing return: I think that she'll make everyone think that Danielle's son is actually hers, and this is totally stupid, since they made a big deal out of a simple cheating (Edie's nephew with Danielle, and Julie knows nothing about it), a simple confession would have closed everything.

I like Lynette's mother, even though she's been mean, alcoholic, a cheater during Lynette's past now she's there ready for help, and she is very strong, capable of shutting down his daughter's mouth, I hope she'll stay for a while during season four.

I think that Edie's (attempted?) suicide was appropriate, she looked really desperate after Carlos dumped her. Since she was really in love with him and realized that now she is truly alone, that thing must have been devastating, so it's a "reasonable" reaction...I hope she survives, I like her.

Overall, it was a nice season, with an excellent first part and an average second, but the best since DH started for sure.
