So, what did everyone think about tonights new episode? I thought it was pretty interesting. Quite a great deal going on. Certainly going to be interesting with Alma moving to Wysteria Lane. I'm curious to know why she gave herself that shot. I'm also curious as to why we didn't see Orson's mother? Oh, and it was great seeing Paul Young talking to Mike in prison! I'm excited for next week!

Tonight's episode was interesting. I feel really sorry for Lynette! She's trying so hard. I'm glad Gabrielle and Carlos are on good terms now, though I'm sure they'll eventually be together again. I'm interested to see what happens with Bree and Alma; the clip for next week's episode made it seem as if things are going to get heated between them pretty fast!

Can't wait for next week!

I agree this episode was really good.
So Orson didn't kill Alma, but what about Monique? I still think there's something wrong with the guy. I was also hoping Bree and Alma forming a sort of alliance. The two of them could bring Orson down.
Susan is a freak and I hate her.
Austin is a manwhore and so is Danielle, but I have to say I liked having Julie, Danielle, and Andrew all interacting. They're all the same age and I wish we had more scenes with the teens on Wisteria interacting. I guess we'll have more, though, because they now have their own storyline.
Gabby also finally has a more serious storyline! A stalker! This will be interesting.
Poor Lynette, but that little girl is a little bitch. I really hope she gets a wake-up call.
Have we seen the last of Art and Mama Hodge?
Paul is back! With a Mike who won't remember what he did for the last to years! Oh no!
Edie needs a storyline.
When is Ian's wife going to wake up?
When are the housewives going to see Ian for the creepy creep he is?
Next week looks more funny than serious, but still good.
:pan: Love It.

Tonight was interesting.

I thought that the whole Alma story was somewhat anti-climactic. I'm almost posotive that there is a deeper story here, but for now I'm unsatisfied.

The scene with the three teens was weird. I thought it was cool, but it seemed weird to see all three of them in a conversation.

Not surprised to see Paul back (although I am surprised we have not yet seen Zack yet!). But I hope this means that with his return, we also get the return of his arch nemesis, Felicia Tillman!

Oh, and Kayla is officially my least favorite character ever on this show (she competes with Cousin Oliver in the annoying kid department!) good God I hate her.

Let's not forget, that even if it turns out that Orson didn't kill Monique, he did run over Mike (which I'm sure has something to do with Monique's murder).

Hmm ...

After last night ... I have come to the conclusion that Alma is crazy LOL ... WTF was up with that shot? Is she a druggie?

And ... what if Alma was the one that killed Monique?

If you ask me, the oldest Scavo kid (Parker?) is incredibly annoying. He is so whiny! I just want to slap him!

The theory of Alma killing Monique is interesting. I think that might actually be what happens. And that shoot-up was wierd! What was it?

I love Susan! She may be nosy when it comes to the whole Orson deal, but it's good to know at least one of the housewives isn't wreckless enough to just let him back in!

I felt like strangling Kayla today. Tom should put her in her place. :roll:

I hope everything is well with Marcia Cross, and her pregnancy. I also wonder what this will mean for the rest of the season of Desperate Housewives?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pregnant Marcia Cross Placed on Bed Rest

Marcia Cross, who is expecting twins in April with her stockbroker-husband, Tom Mahoney, has been put on bed rest, her spokeswoman said Wednesday.

"This is a precautionary measure only," publicist Heidi Slan said in an e-mail to The Associated Press. She declined to give further details.

Producers of ABC's "Desperate Housewives," in which Cross, 44, stars as the persnickety Bree, have decided to move production at the end of this week to the actress' Los Angeles home for two days, according to a story posted on TV Guide's Web site.

A call to a spokesman for "Desperate Housewives" wasn't immediately returned.

Cross, whose character isn't pregnant, had planned to film two more shows following the Feb. 11 episode because it was becoming too difficult to hide her pregnancy, TV Guide reported Wednesday.

Cross and Mahoney married in June 2006. The couple dated for more than a year and became engaged in August 2005.

Yeah, right. Tom is such a pushover. He really needs to grow a pair before Lynette just goes crazy.

Another great episode of Desperate Housewives, tonight! Several things were revealed, including the fact that Gabrielle's secret admirer is none other than Zach Young! I didn't see that one coming! Oh, and he REALLY needs to cut his hair. He looked hideous, at best.

I LOVE Lynette! She came to the rescue, to make sure the pizza business would get it's liquor license. She went the distance, and made sure that the last hold-out, who wouldn't sign the waiver, did!

The Orson and Alma thing is creeping me out, and when Bree found those teeth, with that picture of Orson and Monique, I was shocked! I can't wait to see what happens when she confronts Orson about this. Of course, the preview for next week shows Orson and Alma in bed, together. Wow, Bree is going to explode!!! I can't wait until next week!

Here is the recap of the episode from MSN.com:

http://msnbc.msn.com/id/6828182/fromET/

Armed to the teeth: Bree wants Alma out of the Applewhite house. Orson tries to talk his ex into leaving, but she says she still loves him, and if she thinks she has no chance with him, she'll be forced to tell all. But Alma lies that Orson welcomed her, and her talking bird seems to back her up. A freaked-out Bree stumbles across a photo of Orson and Alma (looking much like Bree) and a scary collection of teeth. Could they be from Monique's body? A nervous Bree goes home, gets her gun, and waits for Orson to come home.

Mother knows best: Susan fears that Julie is having sex, but reacts so poorly to the idea that Julie asks Edie, not Susan, to help her get on the pill. Edie agrees, but Gaby and Susan search Julie's room and find the pack of pills. When Susan confronts Edie, the two women walk in on Austin in a compromising position with Danielle. Susan has to tell her daughter that Austin is cheating, breaking Julie's heart.

Young love: Gabrielle finally meets her wealthy stalker -- and it's a slightly grown-up, newly rich Zach Young. He's two months older than Gaby's young lover John, Zach points out, and he now has the cash to support her expensive habits. Gaby tells him he's too young and walks out, but next week's preview seems to indicate she gives him another chance.

Pizza my heart: Tom refuses to let Lynette in on the pizza-parlor planning, knowing she'll take over. But when she finds out, via young employee Andrew, that Tom can't get a liquor license, do-it-all Lynette jumps in. She gets the license, though she has to bare her breasts to an elderly neighbor to do it. In the end, Tom agrees to let her help get the pizzeria off the ground.

Jailhouse rock: Paul pays off some inmates to beat up Mike so he can play the hero and get on Mike's good side. It works, for a while, but then a guard alerts Mike to the scam, and he determines to keep his shiv handy, just in case.

I think this is the first time I actually liked Susan. She actually took the proper actions as a mother, which is far from normal in her case. I was disturbed by the teeth in Alma's house. I'd bet money that they're Monique's teeth. I was completely shocked when Gabrielle's stalker turned out to be Zach! I wasn't expecting that one to happen! As far as Lynette bearing her...um...chest...I didn't know whether to laugh hysterically or puke.

Great episode tonight! Can't wait for next week!
