Just caught up with the rest of the season and have enjoyed everything post-annual disaster episode. Beth will probably do much more in death than in life - love Felicia's smirk at the end.

Good episode, though I thought Lynette was in the wrong for being so forceful. We all want to see our significant others succeed but she went about it the wrong way I think.

So the title of this week's episode is kind of how I now feel about this show after the 5 year reboot. It has all gone back to the same ruts the show was in before. I don't know why I continue to subject myself to the boring antics of the populace of Wisteria Lane anymore.

Bree looks like a ghost in that picture.

I was thinking the same thing. This episode was annoying in just about every story arc.

It would have been better if Carlos lied to the other CEO and dropped fake info about how good of a worker Tom was in a way to get him out politely. Tom is a buffoon.

Plus, I'm getting tired of the "shocking reveal to explain bad behavior" device. They used it twice this week with Andrew and Vanessa Williams (whatever her character's name is).

Exactly why I stopped watching. Most of the characters are now unlikable.
This show has out stayed it's welcome by about 3 years.

I'm probably with you after this season. This and Brothers & Sisters are going bye-bye. No more ABC Sunday for me. Going back to Animation Domination instead.

I gave up on Brother's and Sisters too. It became all too contrived.

hmmm the youtube with Eva was hot. Anyway they never said why Bree didn't step in for susan. I mean she was going to give her a liver anyway. Kind of crazy how everyone one on this show is selfish times 10. The non selfish people don't last long like Darla, the vampire. I don't care for anybody, but still digging the show.

Just noticed that netflix doesn't have the next season, so my stupid bumps will end soon.
