Desperate Housewives
Listening to the Rain on the Roof

Critics claimed it was better. Nope. I'm not saying that this season is bad or anything, but this episode was just slow. We got a repeat storyline, not from this show, but Sex and the City. On it, Charlotte and Trey are waiting until marriage to have sex. They ending up doing it right before. Kyle McLachlan, who played Trey, plays Orson. Coincidence? And the sex scene I did not find that graphic. I heard there was a more graphic version on YouTube and I was hoping for a little bit more. Only Bree could be turned on by talking about cleaning dishes. I was surprised that Orson's pyschoability came out this early. Gaby, meanwhile, got a funny story. Xiao-Mei was being awfully bitch. Not surprised that Gaby said what she said. Luckily for them both, Xiao-Mei calmed down at the end. Susan's storyline was okay. Dougray Scott is awfully cute (did not know he was British), but poor James Denton spent the episode in a coma. Let's all agree that Lynette has the worst storyline. Ever. It is not cute or amusing. Did love the line "How about 'move out of the frame, bitch'".
