Is it just me, or did Edie look hot as hell in that little orange/red number she was wearing? WOW!

I love Karen! She's such a sneak! I believe Karen can outsmart Dave, even on her worst day!

LOFL! Karen knocking off a beer with her sister, while she's in a hospital bed! LOVE IT!

OH MY GOD! The scene with Susan stripping down, thinking she's going to get into the shower with Jackson, only to find another woman in there! The reaction from the other woman was freaking hilarious! Susan deserved to get squirted with that shampoo! Freaking HILARIOUS! That has to be one of the best scenes of this entire series!!!

I like how they include Carlos in the band by letting him play the tambourine

Ah, so Dave's brother was killed in prison! Looks like fingers are pointing to either Mike, or Orson.

Well, now, that was interesting. The wheels are in motion for some major drama. Carlos and Gabby are being set-up by the very manipulative Virginia Hildebrand (played very well by Frances Conroy). Lynette believes Tom is cheating on her with Anne Schilling, who turns out to be having an affair with Porter! Finally, we learn the motivation behind Dave's desire for revenge. Now, to find out if it is Mike or Orson, both of whom have been to prison. This season is turning out quite nicely.

Hmmm. Maybe I need to take a cold shower, then. I thought she looked hot!

Spoiler:
I'm actually feeling it might be Orson who killed the brother. They harped on getting Mike in the band so much, it makes me think Dave wants Orson out of the picture and is gonna use Mike's record to frame him

Okay - I can buy hot Gabby banging John, the garden-boy, back in S1, but a MILF like Gail O'Grady banging that ugly ass Porter? C'mon.

Loved the Gabby and Carlos indecent proposal storyline.

I wouldn't miss Susan at all at this point. Her storyline is completely uninteresting.

I usually refrain from making sarcastic comments. But wow, Lynette is insecure and thinks Tom is cheating....haven't seen that storyline before!

Porter banging the cougar as well as the appearance of the Six Feet Under mom were good though.

Yeah, and since we're supposed to believe it's Mike, I'm more inclined to think it's actually Orson. Then again, it could also be Carlos. Is every woman on Wisteria Lane married to a former felon?

Ah, that's true! I forgot about Carlos. LOL. That's funny, but, it does seem every woman on Wisteria Lane, with the possible exception of Lynette, has been married to a former felon.

The thing is, did Orson or Carlos kill anyone, in self-defense, while they were in prison? I can't recall. Of course, this could be a detail that has been left out, which would be revealed just as Dave was about to kill his victim.

So is it 2013 on the show if this season is supposed to be 5 years later than last season? Haven't seen much new in the way of technology, inventions, clothing styles, etc.

i figured it was mike too but they haven't really talked about orson's time in jail.

the lynette/tom cheating line does seem rehashed from before if memory serves. the porter/cougar seems a little far fetched but i guess that's why they are called cougars. they go after 17 year olds

The Soup pulled it from some morning show clip (hence "The Morning Show" title in the capture) where they inexplicably flashed to a cat eating spaghetti in the middle of their broadcast.

Frances Conroy is a welcome addition even if she isn't looking so well. Was there something wrong with the left side of her face? Lily Thomlin even MORE SO! Bravo!
