More secrets. Let’s find out who’s keeping secrets and who’s running their mouth (when they really, really shouldn’t be).

We finally meet Rose Kemper, the woman who’s house Orson broke into the night Edie died. Turns out, she thinks it was “Death” coming for her (and apparently he steals knick-knacks).

Wisteria Lane is buzzing with activity, as usual. Here is some of what happened this week:

Orson found out that Andrew could afford a lot of luxury items now that he got a raise. So let’s just say that Orson spent most of the show trying to find out how much of a raise Bree gave him. It is revealed that Andrew is making twice as much as Orson.

After a week off for the American Music Awards, Desperate Housewives came back with a bang! As you all remember, the town is recovering for a devastating fire that happened at the nightclub where most of the residents of Fairview were spending their evening. The death toll was up to 7. Let’s see what happened.

WOW! That seems to be all I can say about the most recent episode of Desperate Housewives. Without a doubt, it was the most intense, amazing, insane, suspenseful, etc episode of the season so far! The episode started with a flash-forward to the fire that would happen near the end of the episode. I love when Marc Cherry does this because if for some reason you don’t feel like watching the show - it will definitely change your mind.

I wanted to take this time to sincerely apologize for not having a review for last week. I had every intention to, and then I realized that I had three tests to study for as well as a THRILLING Presidential Election to watch. So to make up for it, I’m going to summarize the two episodes here because each cast member’s story line continued this week from the last. Enjoy, and again, I’m very sorry!

So, each week I hope to make my review better than the last, and I believe that since last night’s episode was so amazing, I’ve done it. I’m writing this one a bit different since half the show shows the characters in the past and the other half shows them in the present. So, here I go!

So, Thursday night, I broke my foot. I had to sit on my butt all weekend in front of the television because my bedroom is in the basement, so I couldn’t enjoy my time reading there, or on the computer in there. It was a long weekend, and it made me realize that there is VERY LITTLE on TV. It got me thinking of how grateful I am for Housewives, because it was honestly the only thing that got me through this long weekend. Let’s see…what happened this episode?

As I watched Desperate Housewives last night, I realized that with all the shows I like this season, it’s by far the best that’s come back. Don’t get me wrong…I’m impressed with this season of Heroes and Private Practice, but it’s the Sunday night episode of Housewives that make television full of pleasure. I hope you all agree with me here!

The only way to sum up the premier of the 5th season of Desperate Housewives is to say, “OH MY GOODNESS!” I truly mean it. Every moment of the premier episode had me guessing, shocked, hoping, not breathing, and finally taking sighs of relief. So, let’s get started!! Remember though, we’re 5 years in the future…

The finale of season 4 of Desperate Housewives was 2 hours long. It was two hours of suspense, two hours of joy, two hours of anger, and the last two minutes of the show have no words to describe the feelings that occur. I fear that the only way to recap this episode is to give you bullet points of main events. No review will ever do this finale justice, but I’m going to do my best to try!

This episode is the one that leads to the season finale, and WOW, what an episode it was! Some of the acting in this episode was a tad awkward, but if you set that aside, it is one of my favorite of the entire season. I’m going to write about the main events in each girl’s storyline again, so enjoy, and I hope you like it!

I’m going to try a little something different with this review, so let me know if you like it better. But before I get started, I have to say that I loved this episode so much! There was comedy, drama, a whole bunch of returning cast members, basically, the episode screamed, “WATCH ME, BECAUSE I AM DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES!” Now, back to what I’m going to do differently: I’m going to highlight the best parts of each of the housewives, all 6 of the main ones (Susan, Bree, Lynette, Gabby, Edie, and Katherine in case you didn’t know where I got that number). So, let’s give it a try.

Going into this episode, with the preview being what it was, I was expecting something great, and that’s exactly what I got. After the episode that aired last week, honestly, the only way to go was up. From the very beginning when they did the flashbacks for how Lynette knew Tom was lying to the end when Orson is told to leave by Bree, I was hooked to what was going on.
