Desperate Housewives

Ok, so I didn't mean that Gaby and Carlos should kill Victor. Accidentally of course. That writer's strike had best be handled quickly, I don't know if I can go back to Carlos and Edie. Why didn't she die?

You would think that I want all people dead. That is not true. These are not real people, they are analogies and stereotypes, that is what I'd like to die.

Bree, Bree, Bree. Getting "your" son circumcised without your husband's knowledge and against his expressed wishes. If you can remember your own circumcision you should have some say in whether or not your son has one. All was forgiven once Bree said she truly saw Orson as the babies father and that he had every right to decide everything regarding their child, (now that the unsightly foreskin is gone),

Who's tired of Mike and Susan? How long until she has a miscarriage? There is a fine line between funny neurotic and painful storyline, that line has been crossed.


The Scavo family is yawn without the eccentric babysitter. Let's forget about our mother issues and get back to juggling a family business and a family.

Maybe we should do a spin off on Gaby and Carlos and their life on the lam with $10,000,000 I would watch that. I don't know how much more of Wisteria Lane I can handle.

You might wonder what I think of the the new neighbor lady, I don't, that's why I didn't mention her.

Commercials

What would tv be without commercials. My current favorite is for the Chevy Malibu. Finally a car that cannot be ignored. The two I've seen are hilarious. In one, a car (not a Malibu) is parked outside of a bank, the bank surrounded by cops, the bad guys are in the car but the police keep telling them to come out of the bank. The bad guys realize that they have an invisibility cloak and drive off.

The second commercial we see a jogger run smack into the side of a car (again, not the Malibu). She falls down and immediately runs into the car again. She repeatedly runs into the car and falls down while the narrator promises that the Malibu cannot be ignored.

Love it.

Extreme Makeover: Home Edition

Ty showed a video of a family who had lost hope. They were desperate. The designers arrived at the house and Ty announced their arrival through a bullhorn. The family came running out of the house screaming and crying. The weight of their world lifted.

I cried.

They walked through the house and showed just how bad it can get. Life had dealt this family some blows, but despite their situation they were making their world a better place for others.

They stuffed the family into a limo, and started breaking things.

I wished I were there.

The "Braveheart" scene was next, an army of builders comes marching down the street, tools raised and screaming. The head builder said some nice words about what a privilege it is to be a part of this.

I wished I were there.

They build a house, go to Sears, show ten second shots of all the products they are putting in the house. They get the keys and move in the furniture.

Ty is out in the street working the crowd. The family comes home, the say,
"Bus driver, MOVE THAT BUS", the bus moves the family freaks.

I cry again.

Much like the directions on the bottle of shampoo. Watch. Repeat weekly. It's the same show every week and yet I cannot get enough of it. I love crazy Ty. I pray Ed doesn't do any more harm to himself. I wonder how the family is going to afford to keep the lights on. I hope that they pick families that will truly use this opportunity as a stepping stone.

Spoiler alert: Next episode is the 100th. Big reunion time. I think I'm going to cry.
