I haven’t heard about this show in a while, but I was just wondering; is it still a huge hit in the ratings? ---

Lynette and Tom break the news of their impending blessed event to the kids. Their reactions were about the funniest thing I’ve seen on TV in decades :D. ---

That’s pretty good. I don’t know how long this link to the ratings for that week will work: [http://www.zap2it.com/tv/ratings/zap-nielsen-weekly,0,4143049,results.formprofile?SortBy=cdb\_01\_num+%2Ccdb\_05\_txt+&PageSize=50](http://www.zap2it.com/tv/ratings/zap-nielsen-weekly,0,4143049,results.formprofile?SortBy=cdb_01_num+%2Ccdb_05_txt+&PageSize=50) ---

Around here, it’s not a question of ‘do you hate Susan?’ but ‘how much do you hate Susan this week’. Hate Lynette too, but the scenes mentioned above with the kids’ reactions and drunk Tom were funny. Haven’t forgiven show for breaking up perfect couple of Bree and Orson. I guess they had to kill of Edie - she was smart enough to figure out what’s up with the new neighbors and there would have been the end of that plotline. ---
