Desperate housewives will be NINE seasons long instead of the SEVEN!!

Well, the show has been entertaining so far. I have watch almost every episode of all the four seasons. The fourth season is still airing on TV. So, it will be a while before I can finish the season. They are going to go for 9 seasons? That sounds good if they can keep up the current levels of comedy and story telling. It is always interesting to see the antics these desperate housewives are up to. Woo Hoo... five more seasons to go. darn it, if only they have the bouncing emoticon to really show my excitement over this announcement!

I just love this series although I'm still in my 20s. Everytime when I think there won't be any mystery appears in the next episode after the last mystery finishes. But they just keep giving more surprises. And they talk about lots of issues like relationships, love and family. I know they all sounds usual. But with their act and gut I just want more and more. And I really feel juicier about the newest season. Either they make up more issues and mysteries about those characters or just let their life go smoothly like the daily life of ours.

I used to like it but I can't stand it now, there is just too much craziness and stupidity going on now, it is a night time soap opera.

I'm glad to hear that! I really do enjoy the show, and I even kind of like the five year thing, now that they are filling in the blanks (slowly, though!) in flashbacks. Just little pieces at a time.

I'm not really sure how I feel. Sure, they bounced back after that horrible second season. But if they keep pulling things like the five year gap they did this season, I'm going to gag. I hate that they did that and I also hate that they split Susan and Mike up. We waited so long for them to finally be together and just when they have they're happy, they pull this stunt. (Sorry...I don't like Jackson. And he may be off the show for awhile so he can recover.) Some storylines are also being recycled. Porter having an affair with an older married woman. We saw that in the first season with Gabby and John. And then Lynette and Tom trying to cover for their son. Again, saw that in the first season with Bree and Rex. If that's what this show has come down to, then it's a bad idea to extend it. Things need to improve before ABC regrets that decision.

I love the show, it is hilarious! I am glad they are extending it

i'm glad they are keeping it going. i really love watching it. I didn't watch it the first few seasons, but then i caught part of one episode and i was hooked. i really like following the story line and can't wait to see what will happen next. i was dying to know who edie's husband was after. Now we know it was mike and i'm assuming that mike is the one that killed dave's brother in prison. so that is why dave wants revenge against him. i hope that it isn't a way to get rid of mike though because i would miss seeing him on whisteria lane ;)
