Desperate Housewives plot

In the town of Fairview, there is a street called Wisteria Lane, a quiet cul-de-sac with manicured lawns and beautiful homes. It's a place where you know everything about all the neighbors and the neighbors know everything about you. It's the perfect urban fantasy. But behind every picket fence lie secrets. And, in every seemingly happy home, you'll find jealousy, lust, passion, and sometimes... murder.

Somewhere between guilty pleasure and genuinely good series. What works so well about this first season is its sarcastic nod to exaggerated soap elements, while taking itself just seriously enough to keep it convincing. This would also be the first and only season where the mystery was worth unraveling. The very last episode brings all the plot twists and revelations together to a satisfying conclusion. In later seasons, the makers were clearly more looking for how to keep the format interesting for the regular viewers.

I assumed this was a crazy chick series but I then had to watch a few eps with a friend of mine and I actually found it quite exciting and also funny.. Every season has a new "mystery" that arises in the neighborhood is mainly set by new residents who have some skeletons in the closet. I found the later seasons a bit less, especially because suddenly a jump of 5 years in the future was made... still I recommend this series, also to the guys.. Good storylines, funny humor, some drama here and there and... watching Eva Longoria isn't boring either

I watched the series completely a long time ago, but I just couldn't tell the seasons apart to properly judge. For that reason I started all over again from the beginning, but also to just experience it all over again, because I didn't know a lot of things very well anymore.

This is the best season in my opinion! Everything is introduced very nicely. It starts with a woman who commits suicide and from there you are taken. Very well and beautifully done and all puzzle pieces come into place by themselves and are nicely intertwined. You get to see the neighborhood well with all its beautiful and less beautiful sides, the daily routine, the red tape. But also in the lives of the residents who are all different, but each episode focuses on a theme that connects everyone. The protagonists all do very well and fun and every character has something cunning, but also something sympathetic. They are recognizable situations and that is why you can identify with them so well. Nothing is disturbing. Except for the eternal delay and destruction of the relationship between Mike and Susan. This continues throughout the series and I always hate that. For the rest, this season is wonderful to look away.

I like a series that encompasses everything the best. This is not your standard women's series. No, it includes everything. Humor, romance, drama, mystery, suspense, crime.
