Desperate Housewives

This is one of my favourite shows on TV, and i have loved it ever since it first came on, with each series getting funnier and funnier! It is very interesting and a bit different to everything else on TV, with a group of housewives who have some dark, twisted, and sometimes sick secrets. I also love the fact that the show has a new topic each week that slowly shows more of everybody's dark secrets each week, always ending with a big storyline! I don't want to tell you the story of the show, i'll let you find that out. It's similar to 'Sex In The City' the way that it is set and commented on, but so much better!

Desperate housewives is brilliant TV. It's set on Wisteria Lane which is a street where the fairly well off live, and the relationships of 4 main women who live on the street. However Wisteria lane has more than meets the eye and there is always something going on behind closed doors. Its a great series with links the lives of 4 very different women.Recommended!

What great trash TV! If you've been living in a cave for 3 years the premise is thus: Susan (Teri Hatcher), Bree (Marcia Cross), Lynette (Felicity Huffman) and Gabrielle (Eva Longoria) all live on the same street in suburban America. Susan is divorced with a teenage daughter and she works from home and the other 3 are stay-at-home housewives. Susan is high maintenance, a bit neurotic and extremely clumsy, she provides much of the comic relief. Bree is a neat freak who is obsessed with keeping up the appearance of perfection. Lynette is an ex-career woman raising four badly behaved children and desperate to get back to work. Gabrielle is an ex-model who married for money and is now very unhappy. When their friend kills herself they get involved in trying to find out why. The first series revolves around this plotline while series two begins to go off on all sorts of tangents and the start of series three sees another murder/disappearance. There is intrigue, romance, crime, affairs, relationship difficulties, badly behaved children and any sort of trashy or comical situtation you can imagine.

Series two lagged a bit midway through, but the start of series three was a blast and it looks to be back to full force again for an hour a week of completely escapist viewing.
