I’ve been re-watching this The last few weeks and forgot what an iconic show this is. It also has an eerie atmosphere. What’s everyone’s thoughts on show?

One of those shows that had a really good first series and struggled to match it or better it. I kept watching it until they skipped a few years into the future and gave up. They all hated one another in real life especially Terri Hatcher !

I hated the time jump. It didn’t serve any purpose. It was the season 4 cliffhanger to show Gabby was now poor due to Carlos’s blindness, Susan had broken up with Mike and Bree was back with Orson who she had split with previously. But by Season 5/6 Gabby was no longer poor, Carlos was no longer blind, Susan had reunited with Mike and Bree had split with Orson again. Pointless.

I did like Season 1 but my favourite Season was 4 :)

I liked the first few series. The last one I watched all the way through was series 6, where there was a plane crash, serial killer and eco terrorist. I didn't like how they made Katherine become obsessed with Mike after they broke up.

I watched it for the first time last year. I was surprised how well it's held up. It gets very silly from Season Five onwards but I still enjoyed it.

I’m quite surprised it hasn’t been rebooted yet, given the ending ending on a new mystery, though I suppose people would moan if the originals weren’t in it but it would make no sense that they would be hanging around on a lane they moved from over a decade ago.

WHATS IN THE BOX IN SUSANS GARAGE 🤣🤣🤣
I was obsessed with DH. Id say its my all time favourite TV programme. It finished when I was in my early 20s pre kids. I dont know if I would follow if it was on now. But I'd probably rematch now were in lockdown if I had the chance.

I rewatched it last year! I used to be obsessed, I remember being gutted when I was in labour back in 2012 because I was missing the last episode 😂 some of the storylines are ridiculous though.

Omg I watched it for the first time during the first lockdown and I have never felt emotions like that while watching a series before. I was absolutey sobbing my eyes out at the supermarket shooter episode. One of the best programmes I've ever watched. I never see it being hyped up on the internet as much as other shows from around the same time but it should be!!

The shooter episode is so so good! And the tornado one. Love a big dramatic event!

Iv watched every DH episode at least 10 times 😂 I have all the box sets, the early seasons are so good. I watched Devious Maids too which Marc Cherry did after DH, thought it was ok but nowhere near as good, they used a lot of the same cast too 😂

SPOILERS INCASE YOU'RE A FIRST TIME WATCHER!!!

Teri Hatcher is so beautiful - its a shame she was such a witch to the other girls during filming... I found that my favourite housewife would change frequently. I have a soft spot for Lynette even though she was always complaining about something and nothing Tom did would ever make her happy. I don't blame him for leaving but I'm glad they got back together in the end as they did belong together. I can't believe Felicity Huffman was (very temporarily) jailed for the college scandal!! I love Gabrielle too but I did feel sorry for the kids, especially Juanita. You could tell she kind of resented them but then suddenly wanted a relationship with her biological daughter because she liked handbags and was Gaby's mini me. I think Carlos' character developent is my favourite out of all of the characters. And don't get me started on Mike:cry::cry::cry:

Carlos was by far my fave character don’t know why just had a soft spot for him! I also hated Carl at first then loved him when he was with Brie and hated that they killed him off

Also cried so hard when Mike died and still do!

Desperate Housewives is one of my all time favourite series. It was one of those series i was naughtily allowed to watch as a pre-teen.
I have watched it again now i’m 22 and i still adore it. Now i am older i can honestly say my favourite is Bree, and also Andrew. The harsh remarks from the pair of them make my heart grow like the grinches.
