A Guy’s View of Desperate Housewives

by Jamie Beckett

Good morning, everyone! I thought today I would bring you something a little different. I recently got my boyfriend to watch the show and I thought I’d ask him some questions and get the male point of view about Housewives. Here is what he had to say….

Who is your least favorite character on the show and why? Susan, because she’s an idiot.

Who’s your favorite character and why? Bree is, because she’s hot and the perfect woman.

What do you think about the show jumping ahead five years? I think it’s a good idea. It’s going to open up some fresh storylines and further develop the characters.

What moment(s) on the show have been the most memorable to you? There are two of them. One is Carlos using a chainsaw while they were fighting over their divorce. Another one is Tom telling Lynette she’s going to go to work and support the family after she sabotaged his career.

What story do you wish hadn’t happened on the show? Susan having a baby.

What was your first reaction when you first heard there was a show called desperate housewives and how has that changed since you started watching it? I thought it was gonna be something like Sex in the City. Later on, I saw it’s about how women cope with daily problems.

What “jump” story are you most interested in seeing and finding out how the character got there? I wanna find out how Susan chased Mike away.

Do you think the Housewives should’ve run Edie out of town last season? No, an angry vixen is always a good plot device.

What’s one lesson you’ve learned from watching the show? Never mess with Bree.

So, there you have it: a guy’s thoughts on the show. So, come on now… I know there have to be a bunch of men who watch this show. If you’re out there, why not reply and let me know your own thoughts? I’m sure we ladies would love to hear em.
