Sure it is...now you're one of her millions. :oops:

I thought it was funny. Oprah didn't know what she was in for by wishing for the simple life in the 'burbs. It didn't take her long to decide it wasn't for her. :lol:

(Edited due to potential spoilers)

Highlight to read:



I read this in a toronto newspaper (the Metro Today) and they said that for May sweeps someone in the show will come out in character and another person will actually come out in real life by posing for a gay newspaper.

They said that the person most likely to come out in the show is Bree's son.

ANy opinions?

(SPOILERS)

^ Bree's son being gay has been confirmed in an article about Marcia Cross coming out that she's a lesbian. (Don't have a link sorry) Best Week Ever has the news up that Cross is coming out though.

OMG...

I would have NEVER expected both or either one!!!

I mean a gay character on the show was almost given as a coming since the writer is gay, and it was probably smart to wait until a little later.

But I seriously would have NEVER thought Marcia Cross is a lesbian. WOW!

And why are they saying she's planning to come out if they are already freakin announcing it in the article!!! :)

Hahaha. I actually remember thinking that about Bree's son during the earlier episodes.

I wonder how :razz:


And then he became an anoying prick :wink:

Marcia Cross is a LITTLE surprising though. But then I look back on it and see allt he signs. ok..no. :razz:

So the son is gay in TV (not in real life) and Marcia is gay in real life (and not in tv).

I hope i got that right.

Today on the View Cross denied she was a lesbian and said it was a bad rumor that got out of hand due to the story line coming up.

Given other articles which suggested that Cross was using this "leak" to test the waters, one has to wonder if she saw the backlash coming and is denying it becasue of that or she just wants to give the Advocate a exculsive.

A lot of actors have been "accused" of being gay and later it turned out they weren't, so I'd greet stories like this with skepticism unless it becomes obvious or they say so themselves, since it's their business anyway. And yeah I know accused wasn't the right word, it is too pejorative but I'm typing this fast and I can't think of a nicer word at the moment. :)

No Edie this week. :evil:

Susan looked yummy in that dress.

Lynette throwing those eggs. :lol:

Gabrielle's such a little bitch. Loved seeing her taken down a notch.

Bree kinda suprised me that she didn't take to dominating at first, because she's such a control freak, and it seems like it would be her kind of thing. I would think that she'll be enjoying it before long. :razz:

Mike's a killer? :shock:

No Mike is not a killer! He was framed by Zach's dad.

Pretty good episode, but it was pretty slow and an episode so uneventful, ALOT happened.

Call me a sucker, but I really felt sorry for that old neighbor, Lynett's enemy.

I really like how this is edging out more to be a suspenseful. I'm really enjoying the Mike and Susan storyline. And man I just wanna know what the hell is going on. I mean they are REALLY drawing a vague picture without anythin clear!

Does anyone know who the guy was that shot Mike or does no one know?

Angela sound VERY interesting!

Bree is still Quenn Bee! ;)

I like what they're doing with Gabrielle and next week looks a bit more interesting. How will she react to a new gardener? I was thinking she would reveal she was pregnant this episode but that's assuming she is the one to be pregnant (it was rumored one of the women would be pregnant, possibilities are Lynette, susan, Gabrielle)

I really enjoyed this episode, although Lynette is getting old with her devil spawn storylines. I got that her kids are hard to control oh some 3 months ago and I don't need to be reminded why every week. The only thing that made her story somewhat watchable this week was Mrs. Landingham. That moment when she was recalling her son was well done.

Gabrielle, I hope the new gardener next week means her whole 'Rich turned poor needs work' storyline has run its course, because it has. There is just very little for that plot to go now that Yao Lin has seen her and got satisfaction out of Gabrielle's 'misery'.

Susan, poor Susan. Whenever she thinks she has jumped a hurdle with her relationship with Mike, a few more appear in the distance. She gets assurance that Mike wants her over kids only after he collapses on the floor and before Lynette finds Mrs. Huber's blood stained bracelet was in Mike's workbench. That sneaky Paul, just how did he get into Mike's garage? Does no one lock their doors on Wisteria Lane?

"Hmm. How about Palestine?" Well I guess that's more serious than Boise. Bree continues to have the best lines in the show. "My husband likes to have metal clamps tied to his nipples, Hooray!" Hilarious. While the whole domination thing seems to be only a humourous way of dealing with the Rex/Bree relationship I am enjoying it. Sure I would rather have some time spent dealing with the mystery of Mary Alice's death. But if they are going for humour I'd rather have it be Bree and domination than Susan and sporadically falling down.

OK, since im in the uk again im ignoring the rest of this thread

But i just saw the episode where Lynette practically breaks down and Mary Alice's husband kills that nosey woman and Susan finally has sex with Mike who nearly lets slip what he does...

ITS ALL GOING ON

I dig this show so much right now

I'm not sure I mentioned how much I loved Lynette's enemy in the last episode.

Anyone who is at all rude to that obnoxious hag Lynette gets an A in my book.

Seriously. I *can't* *stand* Lynette.

i LOVE Lynette
Especially in that episode where she had a breakdown with the ritlin, god that was sad.
My favourite housewive is either Susan or Bree though, but Lynette kicks too, my least favourite is Edie.

She got so horrible, so fast. She had her moments with getting addicted to ritalin and the episode with the school play but after the Nanny got fired she quickly became the Housewive I hated the most. The sick child ploy really sent her down in my estimation.

Next episode it seems like she is involved somewhat with the mystery of the murder and not solely on her kids, so perhaps I just hate Lynette when her kids are involved and I can learn to separate the two for the purposes of my enjoyment of this show.

Her kids annoy the shit out of me though - i want them to just never be onscreen again.

Felicity Huffman is a solid actress though.
