Desperate Housewives 5/18

Season finale: Susan shows off the new baby; the cops come to take Lynette away; we learn Katherine’s secrets.

The 5 years later thing was interesting. Not surprised about Lynette’s kids, Bree’s future or even Gabrielle’s but what about Susan?

Yeah, seriously WTF. :eek:

I hope they are going to show us how that happened!

A great season finale. Truly great. Wonderful to see the evil little imp get shove out. Good to see Tom and Lynette reconcile. What a way for Gabby to get the cash! Good to see Katherine being part of the gang. And the thing with Susan? My guess is that it’s something that will be dealt with in the series finale.

I cracked up watching Gabi and her two chunky little girls.

Great finale!

I’m not sure. Supposedly the series has 3 more years to go and I can’t imagine they’ll wait that long to explain why Susan and Mike aren’t together. I think the finale will be when they get back together though, after several more years of drama and stupidity on Susan’s part. I wonder if Mike didn’t finally just get fed up with her Lucy Ricardo-inspired wackiness at some point and head out in search of Edie. :wink:

Did they bother showing what happened to Adam after he showed up and helped to save the day?

No, but I hear he got a job as a starship captain, then when that didn’t work out he became a doctor in the south somewhere.

It was also cool to see Andrew helping to run the business five years from now.

It was. And very amusing that both Scavo twins are getting in trouble with the law.

I also have to doubt that we’ve actually seen the last of demon-child(Kayla). As a teenager she could really make Lynette’s life a living hell.

I’m sure that Kayla will be back (and badder than ever) at some point, only now her rage will be directed at Tom as well as Lynette.

I’m so confused… is this jump ahead five years a permenent thing (as it has been on One Tree Hill) or will next season begin just after the earlier events in last night’s episode?

threeorange:

Maybe she’ll take up with Zach Young.

I’m pretty sure it’s not permanent. Can you imagine Gabby being forever frumpy?

Wow. That’s a good question. I sort of wish they’d start there, the five years ahead I mean.

I just saw the finale today. Wow, the 5 years later snippet was awesome. And Susan? What a shocker! What the hell happens to Mike?

One thing that really bothers me is the extreme hypocrasy of Bree. She tells Orson that he should turn himself into the cops for ATTEMPTING (and failing) to kill Mike, but she helped cover up her son’s hit and run on Carlo’s Mom, who died! How very Christian of her. Not liking that character at all.

They’re all guilty of huge amounts of hypocrisy. If you think about it too much it’s hard to feel any sympathy for any of them.

That five years later thing was a trip though, huh? Not sure I like it. Hopefully next season will start off in the current day and lead us up to all of that.

Is Edie gone for good? I’d have thought she’d have somehow worked her way back into everyones lives.

My guess is that Mike dies. Edie dies too. And then Susan takes up with the mortician.

Okay, it’s just one scenario.

Kinthalis:

Not that I’m condoning Bree’s cover-up, but can’t you see a bit of difference in the fact that Andrew, although totally wrong for DUI, hit Mama Solis by accident, and Orson actually went after Mike pre-meditated?

And Carlos’s mother died as a result of falling down hospital stairs, not the hit-and-run.
