It will be fun to see. I won't complain, we've been getting new stuff for a few weeks now and will get 4 more weeks of new stuff after next week.

Especially if they do a cliffhanger, which I think there will be.

Without a doubt we'll get an awesome cliffhanger. It's what soaps do. I wonder if it'll be big enough to top Who Shot JR's ratings when it returns in the fall...

Unless Bree, Lynette, Susan, Gabrielle, or Edie are killed.... I doubt it will. However, I do expect the Season 2 premiere ratings to be a new high.

Also remember, the (for lack of a better word, and I refuse to say "African American") black family will be moving in in the season finale, so they'll surely add some mystery to the mix. From what I understand, the Mary Alice mystery WILL be solved in the finale. Which means something even crazier has to happen either just before or just after that. Another murder will be repetitive.... I hope something even more insane comes from the Young family. Maybe.... Mary Alice.... alive.

Holy ****, that could actually work. Angela is the woman who shot herself.... the real Mary Alice has been locked away somewhere.

TV Guide said Brenda Strong was narrating the part about the Season Finale. I wish she'd done the whole thing. Really was this special needed? People want new episodes

But there was nothing about the season finale really... it ended with Mike finding out about Paul purchasing the toy chest.

I enjoyed the special, but was looking forward to that.

Oh... and it would have been a repeat tonight had it not been for the special.

You think they'll include this on the first season dvd set?

I enjoyed the special. It gave me a chance to see some things that I forgot about but I can't wait until new episodes start again.

I needed it. I missed a bunch of episodes. I watched the first nine or so and didn't keep up after that, recorded a few and never watched them. So this special did help me a bit in getting caught up.

Yes... in fact, I think I read somewhere a while back that it would be on the DVD set(back when this was scheduled on Finale Night).

I missed all of the episodes up til Mrs. Huber's death(well, I watched part of a few episodes on Saturday repeats, but wasn't interested like I am now). I have seen every episode since. In Late January/Early February, I got caught up on the November episodes plus the Pilot re-airing the day after Christmas, and I've read the transcripts from the episodes I missed. They will be the 1st I watch on the DVD set though.

I think since this special was originally slated for the finale night, they couldn't get Brenda and the season finale preview can't be done since the finale is in production right now. So no clips yet from that.
