I just saw a preview tonight and it shows Bree in a wedding dress! Is that for this coming Sunday?

Cindy B will not be returning to this thread for a while. Let's all move on now.

Thank you for letting us know!

I about cried laughing when Susan dumped the strawberry smoothie on that guy's comatose wife!!!!! Then, proceeded to cover her w/a blanket to hide it and told the husband that "She looks cold".

OMG! Wasn't that just typical Susan? I usually find her antics to be too slapstick for my liking, but I thought that was funny. Mainly because I could see that happening to me.

Who is the actress who plays the mother of Tom's love child? She's so familiar but I can't place her.

Her name is Kierston Warren. She's had lots of small parts in movies and tv shows. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0912916/ She's one of those that you recognize but you don't know from where.

I think it is. They also showed Xiou-Mei's water breaking and one of the guys announcing that everything had been mopped up so people should start dancing . Of course they sometimes show scenes from next week mixed with those for future episodes so who knows.

It appears that it is - which seems so fast considering they just got engaged (after only having dated for 6 months). Putting together a big wedding like that is such a short amount of time seems like stretch, even for Bree.

I think that was Orson's wife in the looney bin. I *think* it was the same actress, although I'm just going off of memory so I could be totally wrong.

I'm guessing that the buried body is someone that Orson killed, but not necessarily someone that is known - maybe the reason Orson would have been in jail (although the timeline doesn't seem right since the body seems like it was a recent death, so I don't know...).

CEDmom - ITA, Tom needs to get a spine. He'd be much more interesting if he had one.

 

[bubba's mom]

I think Orson killed his wife. MaryAlice narrated (in detail) about how unhappy she was w/ him. How she put his clothes away, just like he wanted....put the groceries away, just like he wanted...... he was a complete control freak and she wasn't happy.....that was the picture they painted and what I read into it (reminds me of the Julia Roberts movie "Sleeping with the Enemy" where she was "stuck" in obsessive-husband marriage and she faked her own death and snuck away from him to start another life) Anyhow, why else would MA narrate all that to give that impression....and then to show Orson closing the door behind him when he realized his wife was leaving him?? Then, he didn't even go back to work, he put on gloves (then the neighbor, Laurie Metcalf, showed up)....I'm tellin' ya....Orson killed wife...free to marry now (he DID mention he was granted a divorce and LMetcalf mentioned nobody has seen her--not family or friends)...so, I'm sticking w/ Orson killed wife.

I don't know. I think that is what makes the Lynette/Tom storyline great...she has pants in this marriage.

The dead body in the mud looked newly killed to me. Not decomposed. I don't think it could be Orson's wife, because that would mean she has been alive for the past 6 months while Orson has been seeing Bree. Hey, but anythings possible, right?

Please continue to use "Charmay" (in quotes), because if you spell it correctly, I don't know how to read it & don't know who you mean. Thanks.

Funny, I thought I first heard they were going to write Marcia Cross's pregnancy into the script, but either its changed, or I heard wrong since she obviously stated it herself on Regis & Kelly.

Edie can go...won't really miss her.

Mike needs to wake up & stay. PLEASE!!!

Still think Tom is hiding something about Nora & his daughter. Remember, he told his dad that he had a secret & if Lynette ever found out, he was dead. That or DH's timeline is off again. lol

No idea or thoughts on who could be pregnant. hmmmmm

I believe Tom's love child IS the secret Tom had that Lynette would kill him if she found out...... that was mentioned 1st season.....

I know, but I still think there is something ELSE about them/her. Don't know why I think that though.

 

[Beth76]

I think it's just that she's going to turn out to be a psychopath. She's going to cause them a lot of trouble.

If you get a chance to catch Inside the Actors Studio with Teri Hatcher, it is a good watch. I didn't check the Bravo website for future reruns of this. but Bravo reruns everything A LOT.

She talks about how she likes making very serious things funny in RL. That makes her a perfect fit to play Susan.

 

[bicker]

Definitely. I really thought she'd come across vacuous in Inside the Actors Studio, but quite the opposite. She made it clear that she's an accomplished practitioner of the craft.

 

[lillygator]

I too think there is more to the Tom love child thing. He was almost frantic when he told him father he had a secret and actually Lynette was livid that the father was cheating.

I can't believe Bree hasn't learned her lesson rushing into realtionships.

I think Mike will wake up as soon as Susan has fallen for the other guy. That would be right along the lines of her luck.

Oh and if you watch Grey's as well (it's related)...wasn't Omar in last weeks episode the same guy who was the original guy in the Applewhite's basement but was kicked off? My sister and I both thought he looked familiar but I don't have those old episodes taped.

 

[TruBlu]

Wouldn't it be a great twist if Bree's daughter was the one pregnant with the dead boyfriends baby??? Then they could bring back his mom and brother.

Omar was the man who was locked up?

You know him from the practice. The lawyer show out of Boston a few years ago.

TruBlu, that is my guess to, a minor character and one that doesn't want to be pregnant.

well, he must be in other things then. Never watched the Practice.

ETA - I looked him up and they just look alike....nto the same person.

Just an FYI...neither the first or second Caleb Applewhite locked in the basement were the actor from The Practice, Steve Harris.

Steve Harris:

The actors that played Caleb were first Page Kennedy, who got kicked off and then finally by Nashawn Kearse. I couldn't find a picture of the last Caleb but there's a link to a Page Kennedy photo below.

[CEDmom]

Maybe Orsen has another wife that's in the psych hospital? He put wife #1 there after driving her nuts, he killed wife #2 and Bree may soon be wife #3. He's met his control freak match in Bree but she likes things her way which isn't likely how he likes them. That alone could make things interesting if the marriage even happens.

Bree doesn't have the best judgement in men, even her husband was a little off although I liked him.

BTW, Steve Harris is hot. He's one of a few that can make bald sexy .

I knew that Steve harris wasn't on DH, but I didn't remember his name. Good for you (and found a picture too. )

Thanks! I think his a hottie!

Also, he's a bit too old to be Betty Applewhites son.
