This thread is for posting GOOD THINGS about Desperate Housewives.

It's obvious we love the show since we post about it, but we talk too negatively about it (as Crimson pointed out...thanks!! :)). So lets talk about why we like the show.

I like the show because it is a dramedy...which isnt common in TV shows. It adds something that sets it apart and I really like that.

The actors/actresses portray their characters wonderfully (whether we like them or not). Edie is perfect as the "neighborhood slut" (and I mean that with the most love possibly LOL). Lynette is perfect as the former stay-at-home mom and I think will be great at work...lets just hope she gets to stay there and doesnt end up back at home with those brats LOL. Teri is great as Susan...her dorky appeal is just right!! Gabrielle doesnt have much depth to me, but for what there is of her character, its portrayed nicely by Eva. And Marcia...she plays Bree as perfect as no one else can! What more can I say?

I love the music of the show as well. Dont you?

I love how we can all relate to at least 1 character..I think that's very important!!

There's much more I love about the show, and am sorry that lately all I've talked about has been negative. I wish I could continue with positive things, but I must finish some homework before tonights episode.

What do you like and love about DH?

- Felicity Huffman, Alfre Woodare and Nicolette Sheridan are great actresses.

- They have great recurring characters like Mrs. Huber and Felicia.

- The first half of S1 was excellent.

- They have great waredrobe people!

- Marcia Cross is absolutely amazing, and I love being able to watch her on a weekly basis. She makes the show for me. An amazing actress that's finally getting the recognition she's always deserved :exit:

- Felicity Huffman is also incredible, such a natural.

- I love how the show manages to balance the comedy and drama pretty well.

- The wardrobe is beyond perfect, and the cinematography is gorgeous.

- Some of the dialogue is truly classic (especially Bree's when she's in full force).

- All the roles are really well cast, I can't think of anyone that doesn't play their part excellently.

Yes...there are wonderful guest/recurring roles!!

The wardrobe is prefect for the characters

Bree's lines are awesome!!

It just mixes all of these elements, and more together beautifully

I'm REALLY glad you posted this thread....(thanks to Crimson too!!! :thanks: )

I like....
1) The Soap-Iness it has on one scene and the sudden Sitcom kind of type situations it has the next one.
2) The smart dialogue
3) Bree's lines (of course!)
4) The unexpected plot twists.
5) The Pilot (I could watch it OVER and OVER again!)
6) The WONDERFUL performances from ALL the actors
7) The unbelievably great cinematography
8) The wardrobe
9) I think, EVERYTHING (?)

Edie was the one thing I liked about the show. And Mrs Huberthingy. And Mrs Huberthingy's sister.

I love Bree. She is so original.
I also like Susan and Lynette. They are so funny.
