Desperate Housewives Season 3 Discussion Thread

[dvdjunkie]

How come you are so excited about a recap show of DH, yet you jump all over me when I get excited about recap shows on LOST??? Something is missing here.

[Rowlf_The_Dog]

I never said I didn't like the re-cap shows for LOST ... you are putting words in my mouth LOL ...

What I kept on jumping you about is that you kept on counting re-cap shows as the total # of episodes in a season ... And they don't count in the normal episode count of a series ... they are considered specials ... So Season 3's first episode of LOST ... was not the re-cap ep that aired prior to LOST returning on Oct 1st ...

As I stated in the LOST Season 3 forum thread ... I like the re-cap eps for LOST ... DH ... and GREY's ... I always like to purchase the season sets that have the special bonus disc with the re-cap eps ... cuz I think they are very well done ...

More new spoilers I found online ...

Ian and Susan discuss marriage, and Susan meets Ian's parents, which does not go well for Susan as she accidentally lights her potential future mother-in-law on fire! Lynn Redgrave is set to guest star as Ian's mother, Liz. Mike regains more and more of his memories and decides to try to get Susan back, to Ian's dismay.

Edie has a new man in her life named Raoul, but she's angry when it turns out he's sleeping with someone else – his own stepsister, who he carries a naked picture of in his wallet. Later in the season, Edie and Carlos are caught in flagrante by a realtor.

Gabrielle continues her romance with Victor, who continues his run for mayor of Fairview. Wearing a dress she acquired from Victor, Gaby meets Victor's ex-wife Penelope at the country club – but it turns out the dress belongs to Penelope, who demands it back, starting a fight in the ladies' room. Eventually Victor and Gabrielle's romance becomes a problem for Victor's mayoral campaign when scandalous photos of the couple end up in the papers, but Gabrielle saves the day by saying that they're not having a fling, they're engaged. (But is she making it up on the spot?)

Gabrielle also gets a new handyman named Toby, who seems to mostly be there as eye candy while the girls play poker.

At the pizzeria, things continue to go wrong. Lynette tries to head off her employees' demands for health benefits by offering them new uniforms, which only makes them consider starting a union. In another episode, Lynette and Tom each seek medical attention after bad sex. Lynette breaks down after having another bad day at the pizzeria; later in the season, she meets a new man to whom she's secretly attracted.

Thanks, Rowlf_The_Dog! Can we say, "Juicy"! Sounds great! I do, however, hope that Lynette is only secretly attracted to the new man, because she and Tom are meant to be together. What will I do, if the only couple on this show, which gives me hope for love, doesn't survive?! I'll be crushed!

[Rowlf_The_Dog]

Your welcome MM1 ...

Everything does sound extra extra juicy ...

I don't know if you caught an earlier post I did at the bottom of the previous page ...

It's a spoiler for episode 19 ... and the start of what may be the new mystery ...

I highlighted it in white ... for those that didn't want to get spoiled at what seems to be the new mystery of the next season ...

It doesn't say a lot ... but it sounds real good ... and I wonder who it could be ...

[ZOOMBOOM0688]

First of all.... I doubt anyone noticed (Because I don't post a lot, just read) BUT I'm BACK!!!! I haven't been on this forum for a long time and I don't know why but I'm back!!!

SORRY!!

anyways I was just watching my season 2 DVD and I forgot if they said anything about EDIE & SUSAN this season. Because when Edie burned her house SUSAN had the tape of her confessing but I don't remeber anything happening to EDIE ALSO she wasn't in the FINALE for SEASON II and when they came back for SEASON III they just jumped and left those few MONTHS BLANK!!! Will they ever answer????

[Rowlf_The_Dog]

Susan/Mike spoilers ...

When Susan's car is overturned in a lake, Mike must come to her rescue.

And now from the tv show Extra ....

Hatcher also confided that she just finished shooting a big scene with former onscreen love, James Denton.
But she wouldn’t dish any “Housewives” secrets about the much-anticipated season finale.
“I can’t,” she insisted. “Just that there was just a great, fun, special scene we got to film that I think the audience is waiting for.”

[MadonnasManOne]

Some news from EXTRA, today:

First, the sad news. Jesse Metcalfe, who plays John Rowland, has checked himself into rehab. Apparently, he has a problem with alcohol. I hope he gets the help he needs, and stays sober.

Next, the good news! Marcia Cross will be back for the season finale! I'm so excited to hear this news!

[Rowlf_The_Dog]

YAY! Bree and Orson will be back from their honeymoon!

Woohoo!

I miss Desperate Housewives. April 8th seems so far away.......

[Rowlf_The_Dog]

I do too ... but just think of it this way ...

April 1st will be "The Juiciest Bites" ... the Season 3 re-cap ep ... and that's just a week away ... that night we will see the new previews for the brand-new Apr. 8th ep ... and that will official start the stampede to the finale!

Thanks for the clips! I love the previews of the next episode! I can't wait. I'm so happy to see them give Edie more time. I loved when Edie strips, and then says, "Hi, Carlos. I'm Edie". Classic!

[Anthony]

You know I find it sad that the only reason why Edie is getting more air time is because Marcia Cross is on maternity leave. They should always be giving Nicollette Sheridan proper storylines. Not just because their short on characters!!

[Rowlf_The_Dog]

Yea the previews are great MM1! It makes the last few eps look like a true treasure trove of amazing twists and turns ...

Did you check out the "Sondheim Birthday Tribute" ... I don't know if you knew but most of the episode names come from Sondheim songs ...

They went around the set of Wisteria Lane and asked the actors about their favorite Sondheim songs ... their choices were very appropriate for their respective characters ...

[Rowlf_The_Dog]

Here is the official episode description for the April 8th ep from abcmedianet.com ...

DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES - "Dress Big" - Susan discovers some revealing secrets about her future in-laws, Gaby has a devastating catastrophe at her home, and an unexpected love affair develops on Wisteria Lane, on "Desperate Housewives," SUNDAY, APRIL 8 (9:00-10:01 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

[Anthony]

Can't wait! It feels like forever!!!

Season Finale Gossip from http://televisionista.blogspot.com/ ...

Beloved "Desperate Housewives" star Marcia Cross who gave birth to twins last month and has taken time off from her acting duties on the award-winning ABC series, will be back for the season finale, reports EXTRA Magazine.

Cross who plays perfectionist Bree Van De Kamp is currently enjoying time off with husband Tom Mahoney and her twin daughters Eden and Savannah, but will soon be returning to the Touchstone Studios' Desperate Housewives set.

The season finale episode is tentatively scheduled for May 20, 2007 and it is not clear if it will be a 2-hour event (as last year) since "Brothers & Sisters" finale is also supposed to air the same night in its regular timeslot at 10pm.

Some sources do however insist that the finale will be an extended 2-hour episode, which means the "Brothers & Sisters" finale will air either a week earlier or in a different time.

"Desperate Housewives" returns with a clip special entitled "The Juciest Bites" next Sunday, April 1 at 9pm. The following Sunday, ABC will air the first new episode in a month called "Dress Big".

New episodes are then expected to run all the way through May 20.

According to spoiler sources, two housewives will walk down the aisle in the season finale episode that ends with a shocking cliffhanger (of course!); Gabrielle will be marrying Victor and Susan will tie the knot with Ian.

Chances are at least one of the couples don't get a happy ending.
