Desperate Housewives: Season 4

Benzgirl · #1 05-19-2008, 11:43 AM

Everything in the spoilers happened, but I didn't know how they were going to pull it off. It did say that one of the husbands was going off to jail. Could this have been Mike? I expected it to be Bree's hubby.

Marcia looked old because they put her in black. One thing I have always been taught as a red-head, is never to wear black or navy since it washes you out.

If you are interested in what is up for next season, highlight what is below:

Season 5 spoilers
The show will be back in the fall (probably September).

As revealed in the spoilers for the season finale, next season takes us FIVE years into the future and stays there.
Lynette's kids will be recast; they're juvenile delinquents.
Mrs. McCluskey's hard of hearing.
Bree's well on her way to becoming the next Martha Stewart.
Carlos remains blind.
Katherine is still living on Wisteria Lane and is closer to the other women now.
Edie returns to Wisteria Lane, having also gone through significant change as well.
Susan has a new husband, played by Gale Harold. Mike may or may not be back. (They've played the "James-Denton-won't-know-if-he's-back-til-June" card after season 1 and 2, so best bet is that he will, in fact, return.) Many have already emailed wondering if Susan's new husband is Adam; no, he's not, though I guess Gale Harold and Nathan Fillion look a bit alike.
Oh, and Susan's son may go by "M.J." so we probably won't have to hear "Maynard" a lot.

Gone from the show: Julie, Danielle, Dylan, and the actors playing Lynette's kids. the kids who've played Lynette's kids til now may or may not be back for a few flashbacks next season.

Say hello to Kaila Say and Danielle Baltodano, who are playing Gabrielle's daughters Juanita and Celia. Gabrielle will be frustrated her kids don't live up to her standards of beauty. Gabrielle's hardly living up to her own standards of beauty either, as the stress of living with a blind husband and two kids is hard on her.

There will be 24 episodes next season.

Other spoilers
As Marc Cherry's been saying since November of 2004, he plans on ending the show with season 7. After that, he hopes to follow up with a spin-off entitled Vicious Cheerleaders. (Please, make that happen!! I've been itching for more on the show since he first mentioned it 2 years ago.)
DH creator Marc Cherry is considering setting the seventh and final season in the year BEFORE DH began, when Mary Alice and Mrs. Huber, among others, still lived on Wisteria Lane.

Vicious Cheerleaders???

Lord.

I like that they're changing things up. Good for DH, doing something different and all.

Also love that Katherine is fully likeable now and that the women covered for her. It's nice that she's "added" to the group.

Not until 2011

If you want to read more on the "5 years later", USA Today had a great article

That was a great article! And now that we know they're going forward, I like the idea of the last season going back to pre-season 1. That would be interesting!

I don't know how I feel about that. I think I'd rather have a closing than a prequel.

I kind of liked the 5 years in the future thing.

I'm actually glad the whole Kayla thing was resolved. Lord that child was a serial killer in the making.

I want Adam to be back, because then I can drool over Nathan Fillion (who I loved, loved, loved in his like 5 eppy arc in Buffy and then on Firefly).

I think it is odd that Susan would be married, again, but hey it's a drama and there are women out there who are constantly getting married, divorced and then remarried (repeating the cycle).

I wonder if Susan was married to him. Now that Julie is off at Princeton, she might live with another man.

One thing that threw me was Danielle heading to Columbia. I don't remember her being smart enought to get into Columbia.
