I think that viewers that were alienated by the second and third seasons are slowly coming back, as evidenced by the solid ratings it has been getting this season. It could definitely top 20 Million viewers this season if the quality continues.

Yes. As mind-bogglingly ridiculous as she acted, at least her storyline was funny and not...cringeworthy...as they sometimes are.

I loved the camera panning back and forth between Gablos and Edie while they were all eating the crab cakes. I love subtle humor like that.

Ya i loved that aspect too, took mee some time to get the joke. This episode left a lot of doors open for more expansion in the story lines. I need to know whats going on with Dana's character, like now but the way they are strining us a long is fantastic. I also think itll get over 20 by the end of the season if it keeps up like this.

Anyone else kinda not liking Gabby and Carlos? It seems forced. And lame. I liked Edie and Carlos last season, and what makes Victor so bad? Of course he's going to worry about his campaign, Gabby's a freaking idiot sometimes and he's been aspiring to.. whatev for his whole life.

I always liked Carlos for Gabby, he evens her out she's so materialistic and he's more rooted than she is(to an extent).

Agreed. The Gabby-Carlos thing has got to go somewhere soon - they've been dragging it out far too long.

Alright. It's BACK!!! Best show so far this season!!

Susan was hilarious. Reminds me of her season 1 episode with Mike's dog. I was kinda disappointed with the stereotypes present in the gay couple though.

I think they are building up the Dana Delaney storyline very effectively so the actual secret better be a good one!

what another great episode.

what really makes this season stand out is the fact that the plots are more thought out and incredibly suspenseful. season 2 and 3, while maintaining its wit, failed because the plots weren't exactly interesting at all. I'm glad people are falling in love with the show again.

Great episode. At the end, it actually made me feel for Dana. Wow. That fountain though, lmfao gotta go. And Susan is really back to her A game, Teri Hatcher brought the old Susan back. The fountain scene was hilarious.

Tonight's episode was awesome again. Feels like season 1 again.

Bree and Susan feel like how they used to in the earlier days. Felicity Huffman is doing a really excellent job with Lynette's arc. And Gabby isn't coming across as selfish as she usually does. And Dana Delany is great on this show.

Tonight's episode proved it once again. This show is back to the perfection that made it so popular in the first place.

They're prepping the gay neighbors as some sort of Felicia Tillman 2.0. Nice.

BRILLIANT episode. What a resurgence this season has been!! Everything was pitch perfect.

But why do all the gays on this show have to be asses? By the way, don't you all think that ABC has single-handedly made sunday nights the gayest night on TV? ;)

I dunno.. Their Thursday night line-up is heavy competition. Ugly Betty, Grey's Anatomy, and Big Shots (this is totally aimed at women and gays).

Why, oh why are the gays (somewhat) evil again...? Other than that - a perfect episode. DH never lost its mojo for me, but this season feels much more desperate than any before.

Ugly Betty is undeniably the gayest show on broadcast network television now so it definitely provides some competition but for being a seemingly diverse show, Grey's Anatomy houses no LGBT characters (when was the last time we saw Joe?).

I've never seen more than a commercial for Big Shots so I can't say anything on that but Christian, yes I think Ty gays up EHM quite enough :P

Like the show, but I'm not into the mystery storyline. It's always the same thing. "We can't tell anyone about this!" "But it's so horrible!!" "Yes, but it must be kept secret. Even when we talk to each other, we can't talk about it, even though if we both know about the secret, we should obviously talk about it with each other." "Secret secret can't talk about it secret!!"

Other than that, it's all good. Especially Gabby.
