If they want to rescue this show stat, they'd better resurrect that scandal that they alluded to when Tom Scavo had his father visiting and Tom said that he did something that Lynetter would never forgive him for, or something like that.

And they need to develop the storyline of the dude locked in the basement story of Alfre Woodward's house...it's dragging on way too long.

And Susan boo-hooing in the street was kinda annoying. Yeesh.

I tend to agree. I still like the show, but I do think there need to be more "secrets," a la last season. They didn't even mention the dude in the basement in the last episode; it was mostly about Bree and Pharmacist George, who makes me want to puke because he's so sleazy. I guess that's part of that storyline's appeal, though.

I'm really sort of hoping that we've seen the last of the Mike/Susan tango, but something tells me we haven't. It seems like they keep doing the same old thing over and over, fighting and making up, and it's getting kinda old. They need to give the Zack thing a rest for a little bit.

I'm so bored with this show! I keep watching, hoping it gets better, but it doesn't.

I completely agree with you here. My 2 sisters & I were actually laughing at her when this happened b/c we're so over her & Mike. They have dragged their relationship on and on and on.

I wonder how this will affect the whole Betty Applewhite storyline. I'm curious to see what happens in next week's show with Caleb escaping.



LOS ANGELES - Page Kennedy, who plays a fugitive from the law on "Desperate Housewives," was fired from the hit ABC drama for improper conduct, a series spokeswoman said Tuesday.

Kennedy, who joined the show this season, was let go Friday after a "thorough investigation by the studio" of the allegations against him, publicist Janet Daily said. "Desperate Housewives" is produced by Touchstone Television, part of The Walt Disney Co.

Details of the allegations were unavailable, Daily said. A call by The Associated Press to Kennedy's agent for comment wasn't immediately returned Tuesday.

The alleged misconduct didn't involve another cast member, a source close to the production said, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Kennedy played Caleb, a character shrouded in mystery and seen only briefly as he was held captive in the basement of Wisteria Lane newcomer Betty Applewhite ( Alfre Woodard). In the Oct. 23 episode, it was revealed that Caleb may be responsible for a teenager's murder in Chicago.

The role of Caleb is being recast, Daily said. Kennedy's final appearance on the ABC series is Sunday.

In an Associated Press interview last month, Kennedy, 28, said the "Desperate Housewives" role represented the chance of "making a name for myself."

He was so intent on joining the show, he said, that he passed on other jobs, including a recurring role on Showtime's "Barber Shop" and parts on WB's upcoming Rebecca Romijn series, "Pepper Dennis," and on UPN's "Love, Inc."

"I needed this opportunity to play this kind of character," Kennedy said. "It isn't the kind that comes around often and it's usually played by a name (actor). This is an opportunity for me to showcase all the years of training I've had."

The Detroit native had appeared in the HBO series "Six Feet Under" as a football player who died of heat stroke and made his film debut as a bad guy in 2003's "S.W.A.T." He's in the movie "In the Mix," which is set to open on his birthday, Nov. 23.

"Desperate Housewives," among the top-rated series with about 25 million viewers weekly, represents "the biggest exposure I'll have gotten," Kennedy told the AP. He lauded Woodard as his favorite actress, and said the rest of the cast "has been so sweet and nice to me."

Same here! I'm so over the Bree and George thing too. BLAH. This show needs a pick-me-up fast!

[HBADPi]

I want George to confess what he did to Bree...I can see it now, hes so in love with her that he thinks that if he tells her she wont care what he did anymore since they are together now.

The actor who played george was only signed on for a few episodes last season...I wish it had stayed that way.

It looks like the actor that played the basement dweller in Alfre Woodards home was fired from the show for misconduct.

They just said on DH that Bree was a member of Zeta Beta Kappa or something like that

Gah! I had to go pick up my dad from the airport and forgot to set my VCR. Can someone give me a summary of what I missed?

[KDAngel]

Holy cow George is pyscho!! I'm soooo over him!!!

[AGDee]

Did people watch the previews? Bree looked like she was laying down, looking shocked.. maybe injured? It was a quick flash.

George is definitely losing it.

I was talking to my mom this morning, and she thinks that Bree looks naked and might be getting freaky with the college boyfriend. Who knows

They had me freaked out when that guy drove off with Gabby. I was glad he turned out to be good.

When I heard that, I said to my boyfriend, "Bree's a Zeta!"
