Are you kidding me !? No offense to Oprah fans, but she doesn't belong on this show

I totally agree....I am NOT an Oprah fan

Desperate Housewives Alert!!!

I just saw on Good Morning America today that starting Friday, Feb. 4th Diane Sawyer will be doing a series of behind the scenes reports from the set of DH! Don't know how long it will run but it looks like it might be interesting to see behind the scenes of Wisteria Lane!

 

[BuzznBelle'smom]

The "behind the scenes" thing sounds interesting...they must have a blast!

I'm iffy on the Oprah thing, too, but I figure she won't have much more than a walk-on role. After all, she's pretty busy--not likely to be a regular. I would like to see more of Sharoon Lawrence's character, Maisie, though--I thought she was an absolute hoot!

P.S. Is the same actress playing Mrs. Huber's sister as played Mrs. Huber? Clearly the wig/makeup are different.

See, I'm not addicted at all!

I agree - I don't see Oprah having anything more than a quick cameo. I would love to see more of Maisie too! She is a riot and I love Sharon Lawrence! I was also wondering about Mrs. Huber's sister being the same person. I don't think she is but ... everytime they show her I try to take a real close look!

OK now ... Repeat after me ... "My name is BuzznBelle'smom and I am a DH addict!" I know you can do it! I have faith in you!

need to check the credits. anyone with tivo?? i can tape it and replay the credits....... btw, does anyone remember Seinfeld episodes with Sue Ellen Mishka (sp)??? ...ya know...the bra-less wonder?? that is the same girl who plays Mary Alice!! (Was just reminded when I saw an episode of Seinfeld this week!)

First I must mention....the trunk had adult female remains inside...I'm guessing it's the girl Mike is looking for.

Did you see last week's episode? Where Mike was looking at the picture of the girl he's looking for? I don't think she's dead, I think she's Maisy, the Hooker Housewife that Rex was with...the pic looked very much like a younger version of Maisy.

 

[Disney Ella]

What I don't understand is that if Mike is staying in that house because he needs to investigate the neighborhood, why doesn't he ever ask anyone any questions? I'm not talking about obvious questions, but you would think he'd casually ask questions and try to figure out if anyone knew or had ever seen Dierdre around.

I've tried to watch this show, but with our move, it was hard to get them all in. I love the Dana Zach theory.

That's an interesting take that I never thought of. But Maisy is quite older than Mike. In the picture that showed Mike & Diedre when they were dating, they looked about the same age.

I thought that the girl in the picture was Mary Alice, the housewife that killed herself. Because the old guy said that he wanted to know why his daughter died, he thought someone killed her and the she didn't kill herself.... or am i jumping ahead with my conclusions? I thought that's what happened in their conversation.

Edited to add: Also, I thought that we didn't know what was inside the trunk? It looked to me like it had something to do with Dana....or I could be wrong!

 

[bubba's mom]

Trinity721----i really wish i could see that pic in your sig.....

 

[piglet too]

Trinity721----i really wish i could see that pic in your sig.....

Me too!



As for the actress who plays Mrs Huber's sister, they are not the same person.

 

[Trinity721]

Trinity721----i really wish i could see that pic in your sig.....

Oh no! how come I can see it? And I have had comments from others who could? Let me try fixing..... thanks for saying something!

To me, the girl in the pics looked like someone we haven't seen before. I don't think it was Mary Alice. She did have the same hair color as MA, but her face looked different.

As for the trunk, a few eps back Zach fell asleep in the living room watching tv. Paul came in to put a blanket over him and the newscast caught his attention. It was showing that the trunk had been found and when opened, the police found remains of an adult body. Then he turned off the TV so that's all we know for now.

Ohhhh ok! that rings a bell now... Gosh I just want to put all the pieces together and know once and for all! But then the show wouldn't be as good, huh.

PS - Can you see the pic now?

 

[piglet too]

See the picture now, what a cutie!!!

That's where I saw her! I thought she looked familiar and just couldn't place her!


Trinity721 - your dd is adorable and I must say your dh seems to have done a good job with the haircut.

 

[bubba's mom]

yes, thanks....i can see your cutie in the pic now!!!

yeah....but we can't help but wonder if the adult, female skeleton they found in the trunk belongs to Diedra.....

 

[julia & nicks mom]

Mary Alice was also on Party of Five for a while and she was on 7th Heaven
& Everwood

The two Mrs. Hubers are not the same lady -
dead Mrs. Huber is: Christine Estabrook
her sister: Felicia Timan - is played by Harriet Sansom Harris and you
probably recognize her as Frasier's agent

I like the Dana/Zack theory - remember how Mike took him home and told him he was always there for him - maybe that showing some bonding between them!!!

lemme finish that fer ya..........bonding like a father & son .....Going with the theory that Mike got Diedra pregnant, (Mike didn't know?? ) MA & Paul adopted the kid who WAS Dana, but renamed Zach....&whacked ole Mom (Diedra)...... maybe??
