Desperate Housewives 6×07 — “Careful the Things You Say”: This was kind of a lighthearted episode that I enjoyed for the most part. I think Drea de Mateo is a great addition to the cast, so it was good to see her in a lot of scenes for a change. Also, I think pairing her, the most “vulgar” of the bunch, with Bree, the most proper, will make for some interesting contrasts. I can’t wait to see what happens when they start spending lots of time together!
– The Dominic character creeps me out so much. The more I think about him and Julie being together, the more disgusted I get — which is too bad, since I like Jeffrey Nordling (the actor). He was awesome on 24 last season, but Dominic, with his open shirts and wife-beaters, is a heck of a lot different than the button-down SSA FBI agent the guy played opposite Jack Bauer.
– I don’t know why Carlos is insisting that Gaby teach Juanita. Yes, it’s Gaby’s fault that Juanita got kicked out of school, but that doesn’t mean the educational burden should fall on her — especially after she admitted that she has no idea how to teach. Some people just can’t. And that’s not a measure of parental love, either. They can afford to hire a tutor, so why was Carlos being so damn stubborn about it?
– I liked seeing Tom and Lynette trying to stand up for Julie. They should definitely talk to Susan and Mike, though. This is not something to keep away from Julie’s mom. I know she’s 23 and is an adult, but she’s still living with Susan, so Susan has a right to know. Plus, this is a matter of life and death — not something minor like smoking pot or whatever.
– I loved Bree’s outburst at Orson. Finally!!! He totally deserved it. She is 100 percent right about that. She wants a divorce, he’s the one who’s refusing. That doesn’t mean she has to play along with his fantasy that they’re going to get back together someday. She has every right to tell him to back off and leave her alone.
– I doubt that only one girl hated Susan in high school. She seems like the kind of clueless annoying girl that would have lots of enemies. But still, it was kind of dumb for this cop to hold a grudge for 25 years and throw Susan in jail as some measure of revenge. Susan was right: it’s not her fault that the cop lives in her mom’s basement!
