3. Bree, but not enthusiactically !
I must admit, I really like that show! The writers are doing a great job!!!

I say I'm rooting for Bree not because I agree with her, but because Andrew is such a BRAT! He needs a real good swift kick in the....

4. Andrew just needs to find the right man...
...to get him out of his vindictive phase.

6. Poor Bree....
After her "sodomy" comment and "not going to heaven" comment, I am going to enjoy watching her be tormented.

18. I can't see why Gabrielle doesn't just leave her husband.
He's an asshole, and if she were back in a real city, she would have a real modeling career and a new rich husband pretty damn quick.

21. I wonder if John or Carlos will be the father of her baby
They didn't mention it this week at all, but last week's episode both started and ended with talk of her being pregnant. Should be quite the shocker... :D

9. I have no idea what you are talking about.
But then again, this thread was not addressed to me. I've never seen Desperate Housewives.

(Even my mother watches, though, so it must be good! She rarely bothers with television for any reason.)

10. Andrew
I can't wait to see what he's up to.

I know it's her character and all but Bree is a selfish, ring-wing, Christian nut-bag bitch. I think Marica Cross does a fantastic job with her character but I don't like her.

the photo shoot? Too funny! And I've never watched that show!

20. You can catch up this Sunday
I think the show is going to be an overview of everything that's been going on. You can also visit the website to find out about the characters.

I absolutely love this show. Not sure who to root for though. Bree is a right wing nutjob, but Andrew is a sociopath that ran over an old lady and didn't even feel bad about it. At least Bree hasn't killed anyone.

She deserves whatever she gets for sending the kid to the boot camp.

17. I have
and I think she means well. She's not willfully malicious. Nor is she hypocritical. She's just a screwed up person, I feel sorry for her.

23. Well, Andrew didn't exactly murder Mama Solis....
He accidently hit her and put her into a coma. She died, not because of her injuries, but because of falling down the stairs after slipping on the wet floor in the hospital trying to get to the payphone to call Carlos and rat out Gabrielle for the affair with John.

25. yes but he hit her and kept going
he let his parents cover it up and he didn't care when he found out what had happened. He's not a nice boy.

19. I find them both pretty loathsome
I like this show because many of the characters are pretty despicable people when you get right down to it.

Andrew ran over Carlos' mother and had no remorse. And Bree is a perfect Freeper stereotype. She's actually probably my favorite character. I'm hoping they feature her having a meltdown at some point. You just know that, beneath that calm demeanor, she's raging on the inside. :D

Seriously, I don't miss a minute of this show. :D

22. I am amused at the passive-agressive way
she humiliates her husband.

At a dinner party with their neighbors: "Rex cries when he ejaculates."

To their son, at a family dinner: "Your father is into S&M."

If I were this lady's husband, I'd be afraid to sit down at the dinner table with her!

27. Andrew!
I like Bree because it shows the inner working of, I feel, the biggest freeper in the world. For her to tell her son he is going to hell because he's gay?
I'm with Andrew...I hope he rocks her world!

29. Bree
I love this show, and I forgot to set up the VCR on Sunday and only caught the last 15 minutes.

But, Andrew is such a brat.

And a side note: Is Andrew really gay or was that his ploy to get out of the boot camp? It seemed at the end with the Reverend that he said that he wasn't gay, just trying to piss off his mom.

Also, I think Gabrielle will get pregnant by Carlos not John.

30. See post #20
You can go to the website to find out what happened on Sunday's show.
Andrew was caught kissing a guy in the pool, so I think there's a pretty good chance he's gay.

31. I like this site
www.televisionwithoutpity.com

You get a little snarkyness, and the show is really broken down not a 15 second recap.
