    Re: Tonights Desperate Housewives
    Most recent US episode was quite powerful, though it wasn't as pacy as the last few episodes - though to be fair it was a funeral. However I'm really annoyed that they didn't bring three characters back for the funeral

    Katherine, Zach and Paul
    . As for next week's episode rather shocked about

    Andrew marrying a woman
    I wasn't expecting that at all.

    bringing Katherine back, it would have been the perfect oppertunity with a legitimate reason. I'm hoping that in a future episode, we will see the ganster who killed mike being hassled in prison by Paul. It would make sense since he was close with susan last year and would be the perfect end for his character.

    are both coming back, but if last episode wasn't a good reason to, what is the reason for them coming back now?? Also, I think Bree's new storyline with Andrew has more to it than what meets the eye.

    Katherine was returningbut didn't know Robin was too, but it makes sense. But I havn't heard anything of katherine's return since and it is getting nearer to the finale so unless she has had a reason for staying away, suddenly showing up seems odd. I'm sure Andrew's wedding is for some benefit - greencard or something similar

    don't take my word for it robin will be back, im just guessing

    2) What's a greencard??
    3) I reckon Katherine will be back in the final episode - my own opinion so no spoilertags - as I think something big will happen in part 1 of the finale

    Greencard is like a pass into america so by marrying a US citizen, you gain the right to live in the US. I really think the show shouldend with Katherine back on the lane so hope that whenever she returns, she will stay to the end.

    As much as I like Body of Proof, Dana Delany should have just become a recurring character - pretty much like how Bob and Lee are at the moment. I like Renee though, her and Katherine could have been good together (not in that way though lol)

    The most recent US episode was a disapointment. One more episode, then another break for US followers (I don't know why seeing as there are only 3 episodes, plus the 2 hour series finale left to go!). I have a funny feeling the show may end on April 29th - just the 1 week off for easter. May be May 6th or 13th though. Apart from the last 1 minute, episode 18 isn't really bad if you miss it or not. However, no spoilers but the scene with Susan and MJ at the end made me cry a little. The final one minute has been blatantly obvious since episode 14 or 15

    Bree's conversation gets bugged by the police. She gets arrested in episode 19 (Next week in the USA and around 13th May for UK viewers). seen the preview for next week's and as she gets arrested she is soooo Bree. She doesn't care about being arrested, just that one of the other housewives rescues her cooking, and she even tells them how to do it PMSL!!!

    I am still not watching at US pace but the show will end over there in the middle of may time Sad that you said the episode is a dissapoitnment I hope they last few ones are good because there won't be anymore desperate soon They haven't finished shooting the last few episodes thats why you'll have a lot of breaks. Felicity Huffmann on her twitter said yesterday, or the day before that she doesn't even know how the series is ending yet.

    Watched the episode that aired in America on Sunday (?) and I'm so excited for the next few episodes. I have a few ideas about what might happen...

    Did an episode air in the UK on E4 on the Sunday that just passed? It does usually but there isn't a new ep on 4OD so I assumed not?

    The system used to be whenever DH got a first look on E4, it wasn't put on 4OD until after Channel 4 had given the show its analogue airing. Since when did this change??

    Surely they didn't realise they'd make a loss, as well as ABC and Marc Cherry in doing that lol

    Yeah it is a bit stupid, the showing on channel 4 is on quite late to past 11 I think so not many people will watch it on there at all.

    If you ask me, the show was quite cosy in it's Wednesday 10pm slot. In my opinion the scheduling trouble started at the start of season 7. Why they had it on on a Sunday in the first half then moved it back to Wednesdays is beyond me. They must have lost a gallon of viewers due to that, to the point that they had no choice but to put it on at 11.10pm after Shameless on a Tuesday. Apparently not even the whole episode gets aired :eek:
