Why I love Desperate Housewives...

(Some S'poreans are stupid enough to take the title literally and assume
that the series is ONLY about housewives and only those who are desperate(presumably for sex))


By following each episode religiously, I learn that money is good to have(Gabrielle) but there are other things which constitute happiness(the terminally ill but loaded Noah)which are not for sale, like someone who loves you(Susan), the ability to accept and live with the truth(which Bree can't) and children who will not let you down(Betty).It also makes it easier for me to accept the roller coaster fluctuation of my situation this year, as there are people depicted in the show who seem to have it all, but can lose it ten times as quickly(Rex, Carlos, Edie).




I_admire how Susan copes with the transformation of her house into a huge black cinder, how Felicia single-mindedly pursues justice, and how Betty is seemingly able to weather all her tribulations.
