Absolutely LOVED tonight's DH. Eli was SUCH a good guy. Just loved the whole thing.

I enjoyed it too, but there were some continuity errors. They showed Lynette being pregnant with the twins and then with Penny during her vignettes with Eli. Then when they did the one with Mary Alice, they said it was two years prior to her shooting herself when he first came to Wisteria Lane and she found something for him to fix. The show started when Mary Alice shot herself and Parker and Porter were more than two years old then.

The waterworks started flowing when he was at Mary Alice's house and continued throughout the rest of the show. I think we all need an Eli in our lives.

It was a good episode! Sad, though. I enjoyed seeing more into the history of the Lane: Edie's gay husband, Lynette's tired uterus, Bree's "perfect" marriage, Susan tossing out Carl, Gabby's self-centeredness, and Mary Alice's suicidal behavior.

I've been watching Sports Night on DVD, which featured both Felicity Huffman and Brenda Strong. It's hilarious to see the two of them stand next to each other!

I totally forgot about Edie's gay husband.

Bree's perfect marriage: didn't she wear rubber gloves once during sex?

I remember when she showed up in that fur coat but then couldn't concentrate because there was a burrito laying on the night stand or something like that?

Anyways, just watched this week's episode and I loved it! I think it was perfect for their 100th (?) episode.

Me too! I lost it when they both leaned over and we saw the hole in his shoe. It broke my heart.

My TV online guide thingie is saying that the same episode is on this week. I know they said "in two weeks" or something during the last previews, but I hope they're not showing the same episode two weeks in a row!

Yea I noticed that too?

I don't remember them saying "in two weeks"...though I didn't pay much attention to the end.

yep, it's the same episode

Susan is really starting to get the best of me. What is with her always sneaking into other people's houses. I like that Mike finally put her in her place about bringing in more money to pay for MJ's school. But, Kathryn's character is getting boring. I liked her so much better last year when she was trying to hide something.

They are really changing Bree's character quite a bit. I'm not sure where they plan to go with it. It surprised me that Lynette would cut corners on the ingredients for the Pizza. With her background in Marketing, you would think she would be very detailed about replicating the dish.

So, Gaby is back to a size 0. Like Edie said, "I kind of like you better when you were tubby".

I guess I missed something. When did they clear Porter of the charges?

All in all, the episode really lacked some spark. I miss Mrs. McCluskey and her sister.

oooOOoOoOOooo I think it might start getting good with the whole Dave story line!

I agree that Katherine is starting to be so blah.

It's a shame Lynette & Bree's friendship is going to be affected by money.
