TV Alert: Desperate Housewives premieres tonite!

[Brent]

Bummer repeat! So will next week be a new one?

It's not on at all. The Super Bowl will be on til approximately 10pm ET and then Grey's Anatomy will air.

Next new episode is 2 weeks from tonight... 3 in a row are scheduled and then the Oscars on March 5th.

Grey's Anatomy had episodes leftover from last season(13 were ordered), but only 9 aired, because the show premiered in Late March, so they had 26 episodes already. I think DH is going to have 24 and Grey's will probably have another 2 ordered to make it 28, so that's 4 weeks where DH is a repeat or not on that Grey's is new. Tonight will be the 3rd time and next week will be 4th.

Crap!!!! But I do love Grey's Anatomy.

back on tonight!!!!!!

Hey all - tell me, is tonight's show really going to be that good? That I must watch tonight (instead of leaving it sit on the DVR and watch it later this week)?

I've just been watching way too much TV lately (Olympics, etc.) and I need to do some much needed chores (ironically, desperate housewifey type chores - ironing, cleaning bathrooms, dusting, vacuuming!).

From the promos, it doesn't look AWESOME(so to speak). I'm sure it'll be great(Felicia Tillman and Noah, Deidre's dad are both in it), but I don't see anything jaw-droppingly shocking in it. Of course, the best episodes seem to be when the promos look boring.

[Miss Mary]

I'm also dragging these days - getting by on 5 hours of sleep is okay if you don't work. Now I'm working part time, I'm really tired! I'd love to stay up until 10 but my new strategy was going to be, turn in by 9:30 each night this week. So I can try and get 8 hours of sleep. I have a funny feeling though, I'll be watching DH!

Thanks for the scoop.

Don't forget that Grey's Anatomy's cliffhanger concludes tonight as well...

[arkess7]

Well Susan's marriage didnt work out huh?

And Lynette eating that whole pound of raw bacon!!!!!!!!!!! gross!!!!!

Getting pretty interesting with the Applewhites......finally!!!!!

[Brent]

As I expected, nothing that shocking. It was pretty good. Loved the Bree/Betty interaction. The Tom/Lynette workplace antics plot has to go. Next week looks great.

[Miss Mary]

I'm halfway thru viewing last night's episode.

Hey, check out this get-up Teri Hatcher is wearing! What was she thinking?

hmmmmm. Mary, I think maybe she is still trying to catch George's eye. That does nothing for her IMO.

[GalvestonDuck]

This is weird. I guess the make-up artists from DH wanted Sister Mary to look as un-madeup as possible since they made her so pale on the show (and yet, someone put her in heels?). I mean, her platinum hair matched her face. She was like a ghost.

But check out this pic of Melinda Page Hamilton from Variety. She actually looks human.



One warning about the review (if you dare to read it) -- it's for a Bobcat Goldthwait film at the Sundance Film Festival and the subject matter is extremely gross (beyond anything I ever thought an independent film would touch on). Seriously, if you read it, don't say I didn't warn you.

Desperate Housewives[New]
9 pm/ET, ABC
The big news tonight is Gaby's flashy mom (Maria Conchita Alonso), who shows up for a visit and seems more interested in Carlos than in her daughter. But she also has a secret about Gaby that'll keep things percolating as usual on Wisteria Lane. Meanwhile, those wedding (of convenience) bells could start ringing for Susan and Karl. But what to tell Edie? It's not likely that she'll understand the innocent nature of the nuptials. And Bree proves much more adept at drinking than babysitting.

[Brent]

I really like the Bree/Andrew plot, the Tom/Lynette plot, and the Susan/Karl/Julie/Edie(by accident) plot tonight. I didn't like the latter two last week but tonight looks much better. There's also going to be a scene with Mike and Paul where Mike tells Paul about Noah wanting to see Zach. They both agree they shouldn't let Noah see him, but Zach overhears the conversation.

[Miss Mary]

Here's a question - are Tom and Lynette using the company daycare? The one she fought so hard to have? I've never seen them bring the kids to work or have a nanny at home. I just thought they'd show how this family, 2 full time working parents, are handling daycare for 4 young kids. And they haven't! Unless I missed something....

Perhaps it's just that the writers don't want the kids shown, just mentioned? I really thought Lynette would go back to being a stay at home mom or maybe work 2 or 3 days a week and have 2 or 3 home with them.

This couple has certainly changed! But like you, I like this couple Brent.

Susan is really boring me these days. And I find myself liking Gabby more. What's up with that? LOL

I have no clue... my thinking was maybe they get called into work on a Weekend and the daycare isn't open then, but I don't know. There's so many things on this show that don't make sense at all.

Brees turning into a alckie huh?
