I am quickly reminded how they have Bree once again with a psycho lover, ala the pharmacist and the sex addicted guy. I hope they resolve that soon and give her character some other angles than being duped by whackos.

magiccmom, it doesn't look like that theme will change since they already had her say yes to orson.
lauren graham's character in the lap of the kids was pretty funny. reminds me of bad santa.

You mean Joy Lauren right? Lauren Graham was in Bad Santa but is in Gilmore Girls now.
I wonder if the narration about rain "washing everything away" was meant to be a comment about last season and its blunders? Gabby is really becoming one of the more amusing people on the show.
While Bree dating another psycho is old, Orson seems to be more of a legit threat than George. Kyle MacLachlan can definitely make this character work if they keep him that way.

right, i guess they just look the same to me.
good point about last season being washed away, didn't think about that. yeah, he seems like he would be a better psycho than george.

Oh man, that whole dilemma with keeping the birthday under wraps was classic.
The stuff between her and Xiao Mei was great.

Interesting ep. Definitely had some laughs, but I think it's too early to make a call at this point. I hope they actually spread out a mystery with some meaning and don't hot shot it, as a lot more happened with Orson than I would have thought.
I typically DVR this show, and having to sit through ads really hurt my interest.

yeah, it was like they are already trying to get him off the show after another episode or two.
hopefully will keep up and stay entertaining. i don't have a dvr, oh well.

But I still give this one an A.
Poor Bree, she get's her first O from another creepy suitor.

I thought it was pretty good. Susan didn't even get on my nerves this ep so it's is better than any episode from last season already.

I was surprised they got away with that cunnilingus scene.
"Republicans don't do that!"
Boy, Orson's character is now nothing like the chipper guy Susan met at the movies, huh?
When Bree confessed they hadn't done it yet, I was starting to wonder if Orson had the same problem Kyle's character had on Sex and the City.

Watching this episode I realize I don't care about any of the characters, and don't remember when I did. If I don't get drawn in, within the next few episodes, I'm done.

Only half way through the episode and I have a feeling I'm about to quit this pup for good after watching all of the first two seasons. It feels very been there, done that.

I was listening to this in the backgroud, and I heard him say something like, "I'm a libertarian. I believe in maximum freedom and limited government." So I started watching while he gave her the orgasm. I loved the analogy of the kitchen sink overflowing.
