Default Desperate Housewives Episode 2 "Ah, But Underneath"

So far, I think the Christian neighbor knows about the fire. Since she's always borrowing other people's appliances, she probably borrowed that measuring cup before and knows who it belongs to.

Another good, fun episode even though it was predictable in spots. You knew the three boys wouldn't be there when the mother drove back around to get them (I don't remember the characters names). But it was definitely an enjoyable episode. The is probably my favorite of all the mew series I've sampled this fall.

It was a great episode, yeah when she started to go back for the boys, I was thinking "they're not gonna be there"

It's my fav. new show of the season

I'm starting to think the woman who killed her self(can't think of her name) might have had an affair or something. Hmm makes you wonder if there might be the body of a child in that trunk her husband threw in the river

Once again, I had a great time watching. Yeah, I wasn't expecting her three boys to be there when she got back.. And poor Susan with Edie. That was my favorite part of the show. Not to mention Bree at the therapist's office with her husband, the way she kept focusing on his loose button. This is getting better and better.

This show is so addictive. I'm dying to find out what happens next. Did anyone else see promos for Good Morning America and Oprah during the show? On GMA tomorrow, they go to the 'real' Wysteria Lane, should be interesting. And on this coming Friday's Oprah, the cast of DH will be on together for an entire hour!!

Last night DH had a 12.2/19 fast national Nielsen rating, 14.9/21 in the overnights, average of 20.29 million viewers (much more viewers probably who tuned in for some of it) and an 8.7/21 among adults 18-49 at 9 p.m., declining by only 10 percent in the overnights (16.6/23 to 14.9/21), 1.35 million viewers (21.64 to 20.29 million) and 2 percent among adults 18-49 (8.9/21 to 8.7/21) from last week's series opener. It was by far the highest rated show last night.

I thought last night's episode was great and on almost the same level as the pilot. I'm totally loving Mrs. Huber - she had some of the best lines in the episode.

I also loved this show. I am anxious to see what's in the trunk. It's also interesting how they have a dead woman as narrator.

BTW, I'm 48, and I love this show. So do my friends. We all know women just like the ones portrayed on this show. It's hysterical and I can't wait for next Sunday! This show dominates our conversations where ever we are.

Yet another GREAT episode! I thought it was hilarious when John (the Solis' gardener) was standing outside the window without any pants on. I'm surprised Mrs. Huber didn't see him!

I LOOOOVED the Susan/Mike/Edie/Julie scenes. I feel so bad for Susan with each episode. Definitly a likeable character!

The Van de Kamp's therapy was great! I think Bree stuck her claws into Dr. Goldfine when she fixed his button, hence why he started picking on Rex at the third meeting.

But I love this show and I hope it stays on forever!

The possibility that it might be a kid in that box did not occur to me at first, but looking back it does make sense. There were a number of painted animals on the side of it.

Wow. I"m intrigued -- just watched epi 2 on Tivo last night and am addicted. It might be a child's body, but it also might be belongings, files, etc about somebody? Body is more likely, but it also looked awfully light when the husband picked it up.

Did anyone catch scenes for the next episode? Tivo cut it off! I'm loving this show dammit....

I don't know why (and I'm probably wrong), but I don't think it's a body of a baby. Of course it could be her mother-in-law (folded up like an old lawn chair) in the box.
