Desperate Housewives Returns With A Vengeance - Page 2

I for one, am ecstatic about the change, and I'm excited to see what has changed on Wisteria Lane, not just for our four main housewives, but for Edie Britt and Katharine Mayfair as well. Last season Edie was cast out from the group for threatening to expose Bree's pregnancy as a hoax. After which, she skipped town. But Edie is now back with a new hot husband (played by Neal McDonough), and stirring up trouble. As for Katherine, we know at the end of season four, she and Bree had opened up a catering business. Unfortunately for Katherine, Bree is the one who has become the big star, while she is behind the scenes "doing all the work" (the words of actress Dana Delaney herself).

The official promo for the series premiered online a few days ago, along with some juicy scenes from the upcoming season. I personally love the one-line zingers, such as when Edie questions Gaby about her new fat house frou appearance and she says, "I had two kids." Edie's response is, "For what, breakfast?" Then there's Edie revealing to everyone that she has a new husband. Susan, being her archrival, asks, "Oh really? Whose?" And this is why I love this show. The promo is a bit lacking when compared to previous seasons, especially the one for season four shot by David LaChappelle.

The season four DVD comes out on September 2, and the season five premiere airs on September 28. I'm setting my Tivo as I type. How about you? Below is the behind the scenes look at season five, the official promo, and a brief interview with the show's creator Marc Cherry.
