Desperate Housewives

[MB MinnieGirl]

Ok - it's on! What a perfect end to a busy weekend.

Anyone else watching?

What is going on with Mike. Now that he's talked to the grumpy old man in the park tonight he's got me spooked! In the system? That can't be a good thing.

And Mary Alice's son, I just feel so sorry for him.

Due to the Bears game it won't come on in Chicago until 11:00pm. I plan on taping it and watching it on Tuesday when NOTHING but election stuff is on. I guess I need to stay out of all Desperate Housewives threads until Wednesday.

I love this show!!!

I also feel sorry for Zack ..... it seems he has some kind of anger problem.

I forget her name, but she is the clean freak .... anyway, at least we found out the reason why she cleans all the time. I can't imagine what it would be like to lose your mom and then clean the blood off the street at a young age. So sad.

 

[DisneyWorld Delight]

I missed the beginning of last weeks show. (Accidentally taped PBS instead of ABC!!!)

Did Bree ever listen to the Mary Alice stolen tapes from the Therapist?

 

[dreamgirl]

Yes she did and she let the others girls in on it too. Mary Alice says on the tape her real name is Angela? I believe. This show is great but it has a lot of loose ends going on right now.

 

[ChiTownZee]

I missed the whole story about Bree (my stupid sister in Chicago called) What was the story about her mom? I know she cleaned up blood in the street.

 

[MB MinnieGirl]

Bree's mother was hit by a car and killed in front of her house during a Christmas party when she was a little girl. When they took her mother to the hospital she stayed home. She said looking out the window and seeing her blood there, with nobody doing anyting about it upset her more. So she went out there and washed the street clean from her mother's blood.

Yes, I would say it explains a lot about her. Very sad. We saw a different side to her this week. She has been so kind and compassionate to Zach, Mary Alice's son. And I LOVED her remark to her husband about getting used to eating poorly cooked food! Good one Bree!

 

[KIRSTIN'S MOMMY]

I missed the first half hour of the show last night....anyone care to fill me in?

 

[Lucky4me]

I missed the first half too, but I have a theory about Zack and his family. I think there was a baby that was either killed or died accidentally. Zack either saw it or did it. His Mother killed herself because she couldn't deal with the pain any more. The note was written by Zack to the parent who (accidentally) killed the baby. Zack is now totally messed up in the head by what has happened. (Punching his Dad and knocking him to the floor.) And all of this is probably totally wrong because it's too simple!

I wish I could manage to catch this show and watch the whole thing! I keep forgetting it's on.... I have no idea what is going on with that Mike guy.

I missed most of last night as well, only saw last 15 mins. What is the deal with the screw driver?

 

[MaryAnnDVC]

I think we're being led to believe that Mike is a bad guy, but I think he's just investigating something...maybe the death of whoever was in that box that Zach's father dug up and threw in the river. (I thought it was a woman, not a baby?) Doesn't explain what he was doing breaking into that house. As far as the fingerprints being on record, MINE are on record too...I worked in a stock department of a bank, and we were all fingerprinted in case of certificate theft.

They're also trying to make it look now like Zach killed the person in the box, but I'm sure there's some kind of twist to that too.

Love this show!

Sorry don't know the characters names. I think that the guy who lives by himself broke into the cat lady's house. When the lady and her daughter came over to take care of the cat, he accidently left the screw driver on the counter. She found it, turned it in to the police and when they didn't follow through, he was relieved because it had his fingerprints on it. I think that he has something to do with law enforcement and is looking for something.

The screwdriver was used to break into someones house, and Susan gave it to the cops to be fingerprinted. The screwdriver belonged to Mike, he was the one who broke in. Turns out the cop didn't care enough about the case to fingerprint the screwdriver after all so Mike is safe for now.

Anyone else really glad when he finally kissed Susan????

Zack and his dad, oh my. Very interesting last night. Of course all we got was more confused, but very intrigued. I can't wait to find out what happened. Seems Zack is not the helpless victim we thought he was a couple of weeks ago.

I love this show, it's so funny and mysterious and exciting all at the same time!

That's what I think too. I love this show. I felt so bad for Zach last night when Bree cancelled their dinner. I knew he was going to do something in her house but I thought it was going to be something bad, instead he decorated for Christmas. So sad.

Oh yea! I was cheering her on for sure

I don't think he is a bad guy either. I think his being there probably has something to do with the death of his own wife. Last night I even thought perhaps the guy he met with in the park was his FIL, but that's probably not the case.

It sounds like I'm not the only one that has a tough time getting to sit down by this time on Sunday nights. Between getting DD4 wound down, ready for bed and preparing things for Monday morning, it's really hard to catch this at 9pm. Oh well, I guess I just have to make time for my guilty pleasure huh!

The only thing that doesn't make sence about this is the husband made a remark about wanting the fun girl from college. That would mean she was normal when they were dating and before kids. Maybe having her own kids brought back the memory of her mom. Or maybe she just wanted Zachary to talk and made up the whole story.

I loved it when Lynette was wearing out her boys before their school "interview".
What happened to her two other kids?

I was also wondering if Bree was making that story up for Zach's benefit.

 

[Poohbear123]

I missed the last 30 min cause I fell asleep! This time change is aggravating me. I left off when she accepted the date with the cop, did she go out with him? I cannot believe I missed THE KISS!!!

That is what we are going to do too! But I will read the threads anyways, I really don't care too much about spoilers, it actually builds the suspense for me knowing it WILL happen, just not when!!
