Episode 11 "Move On" 1/9/05 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Brent88 · 01-06-2005, 09:52 PM

From TV Guide online:

With the arrival of two new faces, Wisteria Lane looks like the Great White Way. Harriet Sansom Harris, a 2002 Tony winner for "Thoroughly Modern Millie", and Roger Bart, a nominee for "The Producers" in 2001, hit the block as Mrs. Huber's impossible sister and Bree's very possible love interest respectively. With all due respect, they're just in time. Although neither gets to sing, they do add to the drama as La Huber's "absence" finally takes center stage and a frisky Bree finds a way to stick it to Rex, without having to strap on the stilletos.

From ABC.com

Edie organizes a neighborhood search for the missing Mrs. Huber, just as the absent busybody's sister (guest star Harriet Sansom Harris) arrives on Wisteria Lane. Meanwhile, Bree resigns herself to her marital state and asks an attractive pharmacist (Tony Award-winning actor Roger Bart) on a date; Susan's ex, Karl (guest star Richard Burgi), suddenly reappears in her life; Lynette fears that Tom is attracted to the new nanny (guest star Marla Sokoloff); and Gabrielle sinks to new depths - she gets a job.

In the promo aired for this episode during Lost it said that some new people will be coming to DH (I think it said "some new housewives") and then it showed everybody in the woods and then Bree coming out and saying "they found her body!" (I'm assuming Mrs. Huber)

I've already spoiled the episode enough for myself by reading that Gabrielle gets a job (is it me or has somebody called her Gabriella?

I swear that that's what I thought her name was....)

I hope we get an update soon on Mrs. Soliz's condition...if she's gone from a few more episodes I'd might figure that she's dead.

She's probably still in that coma

I saw the promo that aired after the pilot on 12/26. It goes:

Gabrielle singing: Start spreading the news

Announcer: Two weeks from tonight, begin the New Year with an all-new Housewives. It started with a woman that went to a closet, she had 4 friends, and 1 nosy neighbor

Edie: Martha's missing

Announcer: These are their secrets

Rex: You didn't tell them about...

Bree: Your adultery? No

Announcer: That led to 5 golden globe nominations. This is the show that will expose the truth

Lynette: You have the hots for our nanny

Announcer: and dig up even more dirt

Edie: They found a body

Everyone gasps or has shocked looks

Looks exciting.

STUPID ROGER STUPID BART STUPID STUPID STUPID STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!! HE'S GONNA RUIN EVERYTHING!!!!!!

But yay for Harriet Harris!! I LOVE her in Thoroughly Modern Millie.

Brent88 · 01-09-2005, 10:42 PM

The opening scene with Martha's sister was very very very bizarre.

The whole "They found a body" thing in the preview was overblown. Susan said something about Mike told her he loved her and it caused Bree to gasp and Lynette and Edie thought that that meant they had found a body.

Brent88 · 01-09-2005, 11:05 PM

The whole last few minutes was just great.

Bree telling Andrew to respect his father, and then hooking up with that guy(what's his name?)

Karl telling Susan he wants her back and then she going to Mike's and starting to love on him

Lynette hiring a new nanny after Tom admitting he was attracted to the current one

And last but not least... the body being found by the hiker and his dog at the very end.

Can't wait til next week.

Caffeine King · 01-09-2005, 11:07 PM

Didn't end on much of a cliffhanger...at least not until the VERY end.

What a beautiful Golden Retriever at the end! (That's the breed of dog that mine is!

)

Gabrielle is kinda selfish...she barely even worked!

The maid's quick shots were funny!

spunkygirl · 01-09-2005, 11:12 PM

Great episode! OMG Bree had some great lines "I plan on having an embylism, and dying young" "I am keeping my eyes on the horizon, please tell me if I'm about to step on a body part"

Bree stole the show.

Edie is such a bitch, I wanted to smack her, I hope one of these days Susan does, she's way overdue to do so

Susan and Mike are so cute, I was surprised when he told her "I love you" but it was great.

Gabby getting her dress caught on the turntable

Mrs. Huber's sister

what a piece of work, she puts her sister to shame
************************************

BTW, you guys can still vote for DH as best new Drama for the People's Choice Awards, the voting is still going on

Brent88 · 01-09-2005, 11:22 PM

Based on the preview for next week, it looks like Susan has to make a deal with Edie. Something about secret journals and Mrs. Huber.

It also appears Bree is teaching George how to use a gun(I wonder on who!!!

)

Pavan · 01-10-2005, 12:09 AM

Excellent episode. I hope Mike doesn't get in trouble for this crap Paul did. And congrats to DH for winning Favorite New TV Drama at the PCAs! Lost should have won too, both are fine dramas. They should have put DH in the comedy category, so both shows could have won. Too bad Savages didn't win for Best New TV Comedy, they gave it to AfterFriends instead.

I hope not either.

-*Forever*- · 01-10-2005, 01:43 AM

Mmmm I liked it, except for one major thing that I knew I wouldn't like.

GEORGE!!!!!!!!

God, he pissed me off so bad. SO BAD.

I loved Mrs. Huber's sister and everything else about the episode.

Was that really Nicollette and Teri singing? If so, they both sing very well

Was George the pharmacist?

yeah Teri has an awesome voice, she sang a few times when she was on Lois and Clark

Yes... George is Bree's new "lover". Carl is Susan's ex(Julie's dad), and the one Edie was hugging on while they were at the singing event.

Preliminary ratings for last night:

9pm: Desperate Housewives #1 in timeslot and night.
15.1/22 Fast National Rating, 17.8/24 in the overnights, 25.16 million viewers and a 11.2/24 among adults 18-49. 2nd place in the hour was a battle between Law & Order: CI and 24, posting a 8.6/12 and a 8.4/12.

The 8 and 9pm hours ABC dominated. Extreme Makeover: Home Edition was #1 in everything last night in its slot as well. 11.2/16 Fast Nationals, 11.5/15 Overnights; Viewers: #1 19.98 million; A18-49: #1 8.6/20.

America's Funniest Home Videos was below normal last night due to FOX's NFL playoff coverage. Boston Legal at 10pm was a close second its timeslot and first among adults 18-49.

As for the PCA's, yes DH picked up an award, but the PCA's are not what they used to be. The real test will be the Golden Globes and the Emmys for DH -- and I'm sure DH will win those too. The PCA's did average ratings wise -- 4th in the 9pm hour and 3rd in the 10pm hour.

ABC really won the night overall, but due to FOX's NFL coverage for the 7pm half hour, ratings for FOX were inflated.
