This weekend’s episode of Desperate Housewives was a conglomeration of what they called ‘Juicy Bites’ from the show. There were basically a bunch of 15 second clips strung together in categories. My personal favorite category (outside of the future, which we will get to) was the one that featured all of the falls. It was just a bunch of slaps, punches, fights and falls all strung together, ending with my favorite line of the whole show: Ding Dong (spoken by Lynette after kicking in the door to Nora’s apartment).
The best, and most anticipated part of the show, however, was Futures. This was about a 5 minute look at what is to come. There is going to be a new chef at the Scavo Pizzaria, a chef that is cooking up more than new recipes, but a lust for Lynette. Ida Greenberg is going to the hospital, a common destination for Wisteria Laneans this season. She left Karen McCluskey instructions to go into her house, saying she ‘has done something bad.’ When she enters, she asks what the smell is, and then screams… The final cliff-hanger is when we see Tom lying on the floor of the pizza parlour, with Lynette standing over him, forbidding him to die. This undoubtedly ushers in the sweep for the ratings season, and I think we can expect a lot from all shows until then.
