I know I am late in asking, but did anyone watch it?
I did, and was wondering what everyone else thought about it.

I would slap that lasy for wanting her to pay for things because of blackmail. Good for her getting her measuring cup back.

LOL..I did. I loved it in the grocery store when Mrs Huber(sp?) blackmails Susan into paying for her groceries :) then later she calls and says her hot water heater is broke and needs to be paid for! LOL


One of my favorite parts of the show are when Lynette and her three boys are doing something. I loved it when they painted their classmate!


Aslo the tape Bree found, what was up with that? There was something on the tape that Mary Alice says that that is not her real name....


I think I could do withought the Gabrielle character, I know it is silly but I hate it when they try to make affairs sound funny. I also wonder why they live in that neighboorhood if they are so rich?


I can't wait till Sunday, I don't think I have been so interested in a show in a long time. I will probably watch on Saturday when they do the repeat just in case I missed something :)

I'm not one to pick out shows and then watch them on a regular basis but I could get addicted to this one. I have a daughter who is a real handful & DH travels weekends so watching Lynette & those kids makes me laugh and think it could be worse! I'm also an avid mystery fan so having just that little bit of mystery in the show is nice for me. I agree that the Gabrielle character is annoying-it's almost boring to me because you know she'll be caught plus I can't imagine cheating on my DH (well-first I can't imagine hiring a gardener) so I can't really relate to her character.

You know I have really wanted to watch this show alot, but I have not had a chance to catch it. If yall could do a quick run down for me that would be great! I am fixing to take the kids to daycare today for the first time in 2 weeks (since they are better) and since they have now contaminated me and I feel like the walking dead :P Love to all!

They show it again on Saturday nights so you could still catch this week's episode. It's pretty simple really--

A group of suburban housewives living in the "perfect" neighborhood

Mary Alice committed suicide in the first episode and now does the narration as her friends discover clues to why she killed herself. Her husband is weird, there was something hidden under the swimming pool turns out it was a trunk filled with bones. She recieved a letter saying I know what you did on the day she died.

Susan is the single mom of a teenager, had a very difficult marriage and really wants to attract the new guy in the neighborhood.

Gabriella is married to a very wealthy, very possessive man but is having an affair with her teenage gardener.

Lynette left the corporate world to become a SAHM and is now completely overwhelmeved by her 4 out of control children.

Bree has hidden her entire personality under a perfect facade and her husband is leaving her because she's too perfect. They are in counseling and she has major problems with her son.

I've forgotten the other woman's name but she's always trying to date whoever is new to the neighborhood. Susan burnt her house down when she thought that the new guy in town was upstairs having sex with her. It was not deliberate, she tossed a bra behind her and it caught one of the many candles on fire.

O.K. I've delayed making my grocery/errand list for tomorrow long enough.
