I'm probably going to get lambasted, especially considering I'm posting about something that oozes 'American drama' but I gotta say as a 22-year-old male, I LOVE DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES. The themes carried out in each episode have to this point been done AMAZINGLY well by some truly gifted writers and the over-arching story for each household has just been too cool. The acting is admittedly hit and miss. Bree's actress is fabulous, Rex is awesome, Carlos and his wife are really quite good and the blonde mother with 4 kids is also quite good. Everyone else is so-so but really what do you expect? I dunno, I haven't liked a continuing US 'drama' since The Adventures of Brisco County Jr. but this has really captured my attention if nothing more than for how well the stories are building and growing.

The mental image I got from this thread is you with big, sparkly eyes, flailing your arms while delivering a fiery speech that everyone in the radius of 10m can hear. :P
Yeah, I like Desperate Housewives too (but no spoilers! I think the Singapore TV is behind by a few episodes), and it must mean something since I don't usually watch TV. It started as a funny, dark-comedy-ish drama but as their personal problems got more & more complicated in addition to the Mary Alice mystery, it got me hooked and curious on how it will turn out in the end.
Me & my friends can't help wondering how they make Bree's hair like that all the time. Seriously.

I just saw the season finale this past weekend, it was amazing. Although the Mary Alice thing is pretty much what you should expect (with one or two twists you can't see coming) the biggest event was definately totally not related and took me totally off guard. I can't WAIT for next season.

I dunno who that is but I'll assume she's the slutty blonde lady.

The series finished over there? The finale is airing here on June 1st. I've been shamelessly addicted to the show since it started and am a Bree fanatic. ("My children are members of the abstinence club!"). We keep hearing news about the finale over here, and I can't wait to see it.
(Glad there are other fans!)

I've never actually watched this show, but I was happy to hear Terri Hatcher finally got some work again other than being Howie Long's wife. I always liked her in Lois & Clark.
