\"desperatehousewives\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Yesterday I watched the first episode of the new season of Desperate Housewives<\/a>.\u00a0 Oh god, where to start!\u00a0 I loved this show in the beginning but haveused it as more of a time filler show last season, rather than something I was actually eager to see.\u00a0\u00a0 This season, I\u2019m not even sure I even want to watch any more of it.<\/p>\n

I guess I\u2019ll start with my least favorite bit.<\/p>\n

\"desperatehousewives2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Is it just me that can\u2019t stand this storyline with Gabrielle and her chubby children?\u00a0\u00a0 It may be just because I am a chubby adult who was a chubby child, I don\u2019t know\u2026 but I hated watching every second of it.<\/p>\n

Not only that, but the whole Gabby all frumpy with two kids thing? WTF?!\u00a0 She was the most stylish of the entire crowd and what was most endearing about her was her absolute inability to give that up.\u00a0 There\u2019s no way the Gabby I remember from previous seasons would have let herself go like that, and there\u2019s definitely no way she would be one of those never say no type of moms.<\/p>\n

Oh, and I was totally expecting some miraculous recovery for Carlos.\u00a0 The fact that he\u2019s still blind after 5 years annoys me.<\/p>\n

\"desperatehousewives3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Who IS this guy and what is he doing in Susan\u2019s bed?!\u00a0 We spent years cheering for her and Mike to get together and suddenly *FLASH* we are in the future and she and Mike are divorced and she\u2019s sleeping with this KNOB?!\u00a0 UGGGGH!<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve read on a few celebrity gossip type blogs that people love this guy but I just don\u2019t see it.\u00a0 I don\u2019t see it at all.\u00a0\u00a0 He has a weird face and his character is pushy and irritating.\u00a0 Back off bucko, that\u2019s Mike\u2019s woman!<\/p>\n

Other things that bug me:<\/p>\n

The whole story with Bree and the new chick and their catering service.\u00a0 Bree is more of a pompous control freak than ever and her \u2018partner\u2019 gives me the creeps.\u00a0\u00a0 So Bree has a new reason to act like a complete bitch, oh yay.<\/p>\n

The Scavo\u2019s.\u00a0 I still dig Lynette but Tom was looking like a total douche with his convertable. Thankfully Lynette set him straight\u2026 but oh GOD!\u00a0 How about those twins!\u00a0 Were they so desperate to get identical twins that they overlooked the fact that they can\u2019t act?\u00a0\u00a0 Ship those two little shits off to college already and drop that storyline.\u00a0\u00a0 They were annoying enough as kids, I don\u2019t want to watch them as teenagers.<\/p>\n

Oh and you know the blond dude who married Edie is the husband of the chick Susan \u2018killed\u2019.\u00a0\u00a0 *YAWN*<\/p>\n

I think I\u2019ve just lost the tiny bit of love I had left for this show.\u00a0 I know a lot of people have really gotten on board with this whole 5 year jump thing but I think it\u2019s just made things worse.\u00a0 Bleh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
