That sucks! I have trouble downloading things on my computer too, unless it's on something like SoulSeek, so I won't be able to see it I guess  . It sounded really hot too!

Luckily for me my cousin came up this weekend and had taped last weekend's episode so I asked if she'd bring it. She did, and I got to see it. I liked it, especially the stuff with Andrew and Justin  .

Hehe... ya those were great, but the whole episode was fantastic. I loved how everything just culminated into the poppin open of the trunk. I didn't even realize that it was that trunk until my brother pointed it out. I wonder how today's episode is gonna be. I hope they keep their current streak up.

wonder if the other husband's threat will keep him in line > will the show just forget about evil Andrew and drop that storyline or will it continue and he will continue to fight with his mother?

I don't really think the threat will work. But I still don't understand how Andrew could blackmail her successfully because she could just turn him in for his hit and run. I have no idea why Bree never brings this up. It's like they're forgetting all about this piece of info.

Looking back, I think this is the exact reason why they would have had Andrew run over Mama Solise.
So, ya if they don't eventually use it, it would baffle me.
As to Goldies remarks... there is no way they will drop this storyline. It seems to be the only storyline that Marc cherry has a clear and set path for, longer-lasting than any of the others he created in Season 1 because it's the one that most resembles his own life.
As far as the storyline as it stands currently... I think they might drop it for a little while, but it will be back in full swing by the end of the season.
And back @Mike... garnted you're not a woman and haven't given birth to your child, I think it would be hard to fathom what Bree would be going through contemplating turning her son in. What mother would do that, even after any horrible things her son/daughter may do to her. It just goes to show the love of a mother. But, it can be justified not by revenge but again by love, for fear of her child's health. If she doesn't care what happens to her and moreso about Andrew, as she sees it, she might turn him in so he can get "help."

Well she could still tell Andrew that she could do that, even if she really wouldn't.

 ABC is certainly going for laughs by cutting off people's fingers. First on Boston Legal (the best show on TV today!) and now on Desperate Housewives.

That was an okay episode. I guess it was a nice mix of filler and plot development, but nothing too exciting.
When are we going to get more info on Tom's supposed affair??

Maria Conchita Alonso ("Kingpin") has been cast as Lucia, the mother of Eva Longoria's character Gabrielle.
 My theory is correct. The only guarantees on "Desperate Housewives" is Death and Parents.

Or to make it more specific, MOMS.
As much as I like Maria Conchita Alonso, they need to cut out introducing potentially trouble-making moms and tighten the Applewhite's story.

Hmmm... Andrew's car incident showed up as blackmail in another form. It's funnym that's the one thing Bree had against Andrew, although it would incriminate her too, and now it turned against her.
Anyway. Great episode. IT wasn't am uber-good one, but it's keeping me on my toes.
Felicity huffman's dinner scene with her husband was among the very vest the show has had. You could feel the genuine remorse and repentance seething from her soul. It was just amazing.

I think the last few episodes have been Season 1-quality, the sophomore "slump" may have ended.

I agree, especially after it hit rock bottom when Susan was left crying in the middle of the street in a wedding dress  Man that was terrible.

I actually thought that was among the best moments this season.

My favorite part had to be the moment when Lynett finished scarffing down that pound of raw pork, than slowly lifted her head, and uttered in a low, muffled voice: "Can this be a place of business now?"
Priceless.

FELICITY HUFFMAN IS THE MAN!!!!! (no pun intended  )
GREAT episode. Set up enough storylines to keep us busy for a while. But, is it just me or did I see Andrew and a Gabby/Carlos baby argument in the commercials and didn't see it in the episode?
Bree was priceless again. When she told her daughter that looks was the only weapon she had I was on the floor!!!
I'm a little disappointed at the Applewhites' story. Is that all? IS that what was described to us at the beginning of the season as so shocking it makes Season 1 look like cake? I think Marc Cherry said something along those lines.
Lynette and Tom's thing was obvious filler but good filler. I wonder if their storyline is really going anywhere this season.
Next week looks to be amazing
Oh ya.... and Gabrielle. Eva Longoria is so underrated. She is freakin hillarious. She's better than Teri Hatcher!. She completely deserves an emmy nomination. Shame on the Emmy Academy
