WTF?

No! Past my bedtime, I'll have to make sure ReplayTV picks this up just in case of a conflict.

Dang! This show just had a major twist.

This episode really started to take this series down a darker route, which I guess makes sense as we get deeper into the story. Zack is one creepy character, almost looks like a serial killer in training.

Just loved the expression on the school administrator's face as the twins went screaming down the hall.

Funny to see Susan and the hooker together.

What is up with Zack? Does he believe he is entering into a relationship with Bree?

Missed the first few minutes, glad this will be repeated Saturday.

Zach saw Bree as a mommy replacement.

Overall, an okay episode, not great, but still watchable.

Mike is looking for something in the confines of Wisteria Lane. He's had run-ins with the law (fingerprints on file).

Who's John fooling, playing the "wounded is me" card. Puh-lease. Mama Solis is a little scary in her "momma knows best" role.

I find that I don't much care for any of Lynette's problems with her kids all that much. The problems are cute, but just don't interest me.

Am looking forward to Bree's coming out party next week, though.

She never looked that good on Everwood!

I love this series, and it seems to me to be the fastest hour on TV. Most times when an episode is over, I am checking my watch to make sure the hour is actually up. I can't wait for this to come to season sets on DVD.

Argh, I was at the Halloween parade, so I missed it. I guess I'll have to check out this BitTorrent thing all the kids are talking about.

[while watching kids play] "that's a sweet sound, laughter.. It pisses me off.. "

great ep... so happy they are twisting and turning the story every week Vs the normal thing that some dramas have done in the past where you get a twist every 3 or 4th ep. It makes for some good trashy tv..

Oh and I see this was the week they moved The Mountain to go head to head Vs Desperate Housewives... Errrrrrrrrr yeah great move there WB network.. going by just the posts here on the forum I think only a few of us were even watching that show, and as you can see here, clearly tonight I did not..

Way to lose one viewer and cut your viewer ship by 1/5!! hehe

I thought it was a pretty good episode.

I like the darker turn it took.

Lynette and her family's sole purpose seems to be the comic relief and lighten the mood.

Mama Solis slapping Carlos

How can they have Eva hold those thongs and not try one on

All I want to know is does Nicolette Sheridan prance around in shorts that come all the way up to her crack, in every episode.

Another fantastic episode that answered some questions and raised many more. To me, it's looking like someone on Wisteria Lane is in the FBI's Witness Protection Program and Mike is looking for whoever the informant is(Zach? Mary Alice?). Guess we'll find out in all due time. Next week looks to be another great episode--Marcia Cross in lingerie? Yowza!

I liked this episode alot. This show always leaves you wanting more.
Now there's nothing else to watch until Wednesday. (Lost) These are uctually the only two shows I watch on a regular basis.

Hey, that was a great show, saved my ass.

I didn't watch it of course, but Cold Case ran 35 minutes late due to football. That let me watch Cold Case, transition to Desperate Houses, and tape L&O:CI and Crossing Jordan.

If it hadn't been for Dream Kitchens, I'd have had a three way conflict (watch one, tape one, curse one) from 9:00-9:30.

When football runs late, I wish they'd cancel segments from 60 Minutes to keep Cold Case on time. It's not like anybody believes CBS Forged News shows anyway; they're produced by CBS Entertainment and use too many special effects.

Another good episode last night.

His prints could be on file for many reasons (government, teaching, etc) not just criminal.

Gabrielle setting her mother-in-law up.

Ah, yes, there's a fantasy - Gabrielle modeling those thongs she was looking at in the lingerie shop.

He was being very obtuse.

Very smart the way Felicity Huffman forced her twins into grueling labor, so they'd be good and tired for the school interview.

Looking very much forward to seeing Marcia Cross in a negligee next week!

This show just keeps getting better! The twist that keep coming up are amazing. Now you wonder what Zach has to do with things. Can't wait for next week!

Zach claims that he had something to do with his Mother's suicide, but Zach also seems like a raging psycho, so who knows.
I cannot help but wonder if maybe Mary Alice and her family might have been in a witness relocation program and Zach did something to blow the cover? It might not have been his fault, but he blames himself. Mary Alice didn't want to have to deal with the life of running anymore and took her own life. The obituary, which undoubtedly had her photograph, tipped off the people looking for her family as to where they might be, thus prompting her husband to begin the whole moving phase.
Maybe Mike was the guy who sent the note to Mary Alice because he discovered what was going on in the first place?
Could we look forward to a bunch of mafiosos showing up in Wisteria in the future with an obligatory mobster cameo by Vincent Pastore? Unlikely, but just a theory!

Since the police found the box (which looked like a childs toy box to me) and it contained what they think are human bones, I am starting to wonder if Zach somehow killed a child when he was younger and his parents covered it up. I love the suspense and mystery, but I wanna know what's up with the box dammit!!

Me too. However, I really believe that they are not going to answer that this season. IMO

Good episode. Whenever something more is revealed about Mary Alice, something else gets revealed that seems to ask more questions.
