In your opinion do you think desperate housewives can easily hook just about anyone to start watching it constantly every week ? I do. Its just to interesting to pass up

yeah it's one of those shows that you don't necessarily HAVE to watch previous episodes to get hooked.

very unlike The Sopranos (i'm a huge fan).. i dont possibly see how anyone could just start watching it without getting bored out of their mind from not seeing or knowing anything about prior ep's.

Yeah, was a good episode.

Except they COMPLETELY screwed up the commercials in my area.

They'd cut to a commercial break half way through a sentence 15 seconds after the last one.

**SPOILER**

i.e. Carlos was just making his annoucement, it looks like Gabrielle was about to puke and bam commercial.

After Susan's house blew up, the firefighter was giving the lecture, bam commercial

After the commerical the guy finished his speech like he never stopped. I'm going WTF.

Gabrielle comes out of the house looking really pissed, bam commercial.

Going to end up watching the damn thing again (shows back to back on different channels) just to figure out what I missed. :| It's a damn conspiracy I tell you!

<commercial><show for 15 seconds><commercial again><show for 3 minutes><commercial>

My sister was watching this and figured out that Zach is... MIKE'S SON! Remember that he was taken away from druggie parents - Mike was a druggie in jail before. Damn, this is like LOST with its connections among all people involved.

Right. Real men have wives that sometimes suck their husbands into watching a bit of whatever show they're watching. Oh darn, I have to watch Eva Longoria in all her splendor and actually pretend to ENJOY it...

I'd like to see a monthly highlights clip show of it. You know, just the underwear scenes and whatnot. Then again, I've got real porn, so that works for me.
