Earth-Angel Posted December 22, 2004 Report Posted December 22, 2004 What's all the hype and does anyone here watch it? It looks interesting from the little I've seen and apparently it's starting to air here sometime soon! So, who's who, who's cool, who do we all hate and such? "Pilot" In the series premiere, "Pilot," looking down on her friends and family isn't a way of life for Mary Alice Young (Brenda Strong)... it's a way of death. One day, in her perfect house, in the loveliest of suburbs, Mary Alice ended it all. Now she's taking us into the lives of her family, friends and neighbors, commenting from her elevated P.O.V.
golden_ann Posted December 23, 2004 Report Posted December 23, 2004 Hi, earth angel. I watched the show at the very beginning, I think the first two episodes, and let me tell you, it got old very quickly. It is a quirky comedy and it has its moments, but it was a little too mindless for me. It was like Dynasty on speed...
XXX Posted December 23, 2004 Report Posted December 23, 2004 Real boring drivel. First off, no real "desperate" housewife looks like any of them and a lot of the stories are trite and contrived. I couldn't sit for more than 10 minutes of it before my ADHD-riddled brain went into overdrive and I had to log into Songfacts
golden_ann Posted December 23, 2004 Report Posted December 23, 2004 Well, gee, you put it a lot better than I did. Wish I'd said that.
WaitingForMyRocketToCome Posted December 26, 2004 Report Posted December 26, 2004 I actually really like the show. It's getting very interesting and a lot of twists and mysteries are occuring. One of the wives is having an affair with her 17 year-old gardener. Which is ironic because the boy is in the Abstinence Club at his school. Another one of the wives is having marriage problems but she is so perfect that she has to hide it from everyone. And the other wife is on her kids' ADD medication because she can't keep up with everything that she has to do. It's a funny show but at the same time interesting and eventful.

WaitingForMyRocketToCome Posted December 26, 2004 Report Posted December 26, 2004 Don't worry Sue! I didn't give anything away.
cindy17838 Posted December 28, 2004 Report Posted December 28, 2004 I haven't watched it yet. I barely manage to watch "The Wire" on Sunday night since there is football on ESPN. I am looking forward to seeing the reruns this summer. I lover Teri Hatcher and the premise sounds real good.
Tenacious_Peaches Posted December 29, 2004 Report Posted December 29, 2004 I like it. It's a check your brain at the door, visual popcorn type of show. I love Felicity Huffman's character (crazy mom). I think Teri Hatcher's character is ridiculous....a man's version of a woman...can't live without a man and will do anything to get one. Of course, it's not as good as "Lost".
Foxy Posted January 10, 2005 Report Posted January 10, 2005 I've only seen the pilot episode, and I really enjoyed it. Although the characters are very high class and don't accurately show the desperate house wife in reality - wish I looked like one of them!! Don't give away any storylines!!!
lucylooloo Posted January 10, 2005 Report Posted January 10, 2005 Of course, it's not as good as "Lost". oooh yeaaa!!! thats the way peaches!
Foxy Posted January 11, 2005 Report Posted January 11, 2005 Remember girliess (and boys) its on tomorrow night (wednesday) at 10pm....
Jillianne Posted January 11, 2005 Report Posted January 11, 2005 I'm hooked, too many cute guys in it... Not as good as Sex and the City though *tear*
Foxy Posted January 13, 2005 Report Posted January 13, 2005 Remember girliess (and boys) its on tomorrow night (wednesday) at 10pm.... I can't believe I reminded you UK viewers about it and then forgot to watch it myself :: :: ::
