orson's whole storyline throughout the entire show is just absolute insanity from literally day 1 of him being introduced up until the last moment we hear about him
After we bought our 1st home, we didn’t have a lawn mower yet. And our neighbors called the police to have them tell us to cut our grass, or we’d get a fine 😂
Get those scissors out!
i love having people discuss desperate housewives cause i’ve been obsessed with that show since i was 10, i remember when series were still airing one by one and the plane crashed in 6 season i was so wanting to know what happened next so i was trying to watch that in english (i grew up in ukraine so it was quite a challenge)😀
I betbwatching a show you loved in English helped to learn the language
I learned a lot of Spanish by watching buffy espanol 😭
Me and my sister did THE SAAAAME thing😭 We finished watching the plane episode and my sister was like "I need to know what happens next, find a website were we can watch it"😭😭😭
@@JustPoli97 hahahahha that’s cool
You're so right about Paul...even if he's supposed to be the "villain" I always end up rooting for him for the Chaos 😂
The fact that people are still talking and making videos about DHW proves how iconic this show is !!
Where’s that ranking of every epic disaster in Desperate? I’m READY for it.
The thing that pisses me off most is Gabi/John. I was predated on as a teen and it’s soooo sick that nothing happens to an affluent model. I also think that the show started slow, but it got much better through out. There’s a lot of filler and with important parts sprinkled in there.
Absolutely! Especially since Gabi was a survivor herself...I feel like that was a major plot hole for her character
@@S-CCCC She was a survivor but she was also selfish as hell, so I think it fits the character (Gabi did many wrong things). Let's not forget this was in season 1 anyway, before her evolution.
the alejandro mystery is #1 for me lol. i remember watching it as a little kid and now i’m 25 and still remember every little detail of this storyline. also this whole arc made me love bree even more. she’s truly the heart of the show
season 8 was so perfect it was funny but also serious with real problems
Yes, I used to work in the US legal system & we sometimes had homeowners association cases. Not every community has one; it’s more common in upscale places with larger houses/more valuable properties & sometimes nice condominiums or apartments. HOAs can be absolutely insane. People with not enough to do get on the board & annoy their neighbors over rules like how tall your hedges are allowed to be. Also, you have to pay very expensive fees every year to your HOA. The best aspect of HOAs is the way they can crowd source things like insurance & disaster recovery. The worst aspects are how expensive & prejudiced they can be about things like not letting certain kinds of people move in
The Katherine storyline scared the shit out of me as a kid though
While Alejandro’s death was not the best mystery, I feel it is one of my favorite storylines because they handled Gabby’s trauma well. Carlos was his most supportive of her this season. Susan just felt so much remorse which led to the chaos of selling her paintings which was just an obvious confession. I liked how it was a story instead of focusing on a mystery.
Alejandro's death was defiantly my favourite mystery. The thing I didn't like about it though, was how the blame was pinned on Bree.
I just watched the entire series. I’m a married 37 year old mother who just moved into a nice subdivision. I connected instantly with the show. 🤣🤣
I was 17 when it came out in 2004 and was so bored by it as a teen. Couldn’t relate to their issues. I was into Sex and the city and laguna Beach back then. Haha
As an East Asian person I didn’t really like the fact that the three main appearances were: Tanaka (the corrupt business man), Yao Lin (the maid that rightfully hated Gabby but was framed as mean), and Xiao Mei (a slave who was sold by her family, then the later “ungrateful” mistress even though the Solis family clearly exploited her too).
Loving the desperate housewives content please keep it coming ❤
you’re about to get me re-obsessed with this show lol
Im glad someone else loves Paul 😅 I defo agree he is underrated as a character.
So many good ideas, but *such* POOR execution! Being interested in the human mind, it really baffles me that they didn’t take bigger steps sometimes. Torture isn’t necessary, but consequences would be nice.
Maybe I'm waaayyy off about this, not sure if I remember it correctly, but I actually liked how they handled Alma assaulting Orson (looking past the fact that it had no lasting impact on Orson or the plot whatsoever), because Bree calls it what it is. And that is something I had never seen before on TV regarding male victims.
I just want to say girl your eyes are stunnninnng... you are so pretty!
Yay I voted for desperate housewives! One of the best series ever!!
Also as an American the home owners association that you’re talking about I think was just something that specific suburb organized 😅 we do have groups like that sometimes in different suburbs and sort of “neighborhood watch”. The votes system is more so about the wisteria lane rules lol
just finished this show now i’m watching reviews 😭
Catherine didn't get the new Dylan from Romania but from a Church
she just had romanian roots but did not live there
Paul Young is daddy and my favorite tv villain to root for of all time
in america not every neighborhood has an HOA it’s usually rich fancy neighborhoods and its basically j a council of a bunch of people that live there and they can control what you do w your house. you also have to pay monthly to the HOA in order to live in your house. theres a bunch of rules and if you dont follow the rules alot of the time you get fined by the HOA
It would’ve been nice had Alejandro had been involved the whole time. Causing things gabi & carlos didn’t expect. Would’ve made the killing much better/understandable. It was an accident, but personal experience has led me to forgiving my attacker for my own sake. Gabi should’ve been able to do that, then Alej comes back and BAM. Huge intrusion
Gabi was terrified of Alejandro which is normal for a lot of victims. Carlos was protecting his wife and killed him accidentally. That’s not only understandable, but it’s relatable.
That would have been interesting but it would have also changed Gabi's personality and behavior through the series.
@@BFFFL1492 I never said that it wasn’t? I said Gabi deserved to move on from it before he tried to hurt her again. I was attacked similarly and it was difficult knowing my attacker was free and allowed to have a family despite what I reported. Gabi never reported it either so she had nothing to hold up her side, which would’ve allowed her to report the subsequent events instead of hiding the body. But then it wouldn’t make for good TV which is what it is.
Personally, I'd say it's 3>1>5>8>6B>4>7>6A>2
I once read that season 3 was actually plannet to go a lot like season 4 did and Orson truly did kill Alma, but the actor liked being in the show so much that he asked the story to be altered so his character could stay, and by god I really think this was a stroke of genius, not only was the storyline elevated from a massive cliche into a smart subversion, but the characters it gave us (Orson, Gloria and Alma) were some of the best in the show's run.
Season 1 is brilliant as well, I really like the misdirection with the whole Lynette story and how she really believed Mary Alice was unhappy and that's why she took her own life, when in reality Mary Alice did everything she could to have a life like Lynette's and it was a disruption to this ideal life that drove her over the edge.
For me season 5 works mostly because of Dave and how well he was played, unlike the previous two mysteries I think his was a little bit obvious given how much emphasis was given to Lila and Paige in the first episode, tough the final twist that it was Susan and not Mike who caused the accident was pretty good.
I really like season 8 mostly for being a large scale role reversal, in the previous 7 seasons it was the girls doing the scouting and getting tangentially involved in the mysteries, but here it is them who are trying to conceal a major crime that eventually ends up engulfing the whole neighborhood, it was a really smart way of bookending the show, showing us that nobody is above having terrible secrets.
I consider season 6 to have two mysteries, the main one that focuses on the Bolens and the one about the Fairview Strangler, and funnily enough I think the strangler storyline is by far and away the better one, Eddie is just so compelling and despite his story feeling rushed I think it was perfectly crafted around the lives of the neighbors and showed an element of suburban life the show rarely focused on (Lower-income people).
Season 4 was mostly kept afloat by Katherine, but I found her story all too predictable and melodramatic, it doesn't really help that unlike most other villains Wayne doesn't really have an arc, he's not a crazy person like Gloria or a good person who was driven to a desperate act like Mary Alice, he's just a cut-dry abusive husband, but the mystery gains some points for the Dylan storyline, as it came as a genuine surprise that it was not Wayne but Katherine's fault.
Season 7 is good but doesn't have much of a mystery per-se outside of what Paul planned to do to the neighborhood, which I admit was pretty interesting how he got the neighbors to destroy it themselves; the later half of the season is just mostly about his redemption and Felicia's final downfall, which I think was done well enough.
I dislike the main mystery of season 6 for many of the same reasons I dislike season 2, mainly that the mystery is just too removed from the lives of the main characters, but I give it extra points because the Bolens are a billion times better and more interesting than the Applewhites, and I also vastly prefer the resolution as Gabby made a much better team with Angie than Bree did with Betty; my main issue with the season 6 mystery is that it is a bit too cartoony and like Wayne Patrick doesn't really get much characterization outside of being a bad guy.
And finally, season 2, which I consider the low point of the show, Betty was just not well utilized despite being a very compelling character with interesting parallels to Bree and Susan, and her sons are barely characters in and off themselves; don't get me wrong, I was happy to see everything workout for Betty in the end, as this was a good palate cleanser after how sad the end to Mary Alice's storyline was in the first season, but I was ready for something more dynamic and interesting.
Great comment! For me, there's almost a tie between season 3 and season 1 mysteries but after thinking about it, season 1 is the absolute winner for me: the fact that Mary Alice, our dear narrator and former blackmail victim, ends up being the killer is shocking and amazing for me. Season 3 mystery is almost as good with Monique Polier, a woman who never lived in Wisteria Lane yet caused a commotion there. I liked Alma but I never liked Gloria as a character and her being the killer was less surprising than Mary Alice. My next favorite mystery is season 8 for all the reasons you mentioned. The next one I like is season 6 because of how it develops through Angie's revenge. Dave's mystery was okay but it doesn't stand out after all we had already seen. It's just too late for season 5, even though I really liked the actor who played Dave and the mystery's conclusion. Then, I found season 7 mystery outlandish and got fed up with Paul and Felicia. I had enough of both characters already in season 2, which is also the next one in my ranking. I think the whole premise of the Applewhites was mishandled. It could have been better maybe if Betty had joined the housewives at one point (liking them but still keeping her secrets from them) or if Matthew had befriended Andrew or John but nothing of that happened, only a relationship between Matthew and Danielle but that was too little too late. Finally, the worst mystery for me is season 4 because it was mostly boring (I only liked the fact of the dead and replaced child) and because I never liked Katherine (I only liked her relationship with Bree during and after this season) and her family isn't any better: the Applewhites are far more interesting than Dylan and Adam.
1>3>8>6>5>7>2>4
I wish more people would start reacting to this show ! It’s iconic
1:39 its just so unfair that this is how we used Alfre as an actress. She is so good and this is the best we could do. Terrible
Alicia cut off her own finger to set up Paul, Alicia sister was blackmail Paul wife about the murder of Dana mom, this show is nuts
omg what is your lipstick??? it looks sooo beautiful
there's a John Oliver segment on HOAs, that's how I, a european, learned about them
Great video! Can’t wait for you to rank the DH disasters!
Desperate Housewives content!! Yes!!!
Would you think it could come back?
We've all had the Paul Young shower dream right?
😂
I think so 😅
Yes thank you for this ❤

The first season..the show was all downhill from there..the first seasons storyline was amazing..after that, all average at best..but the season with the dis@bled son and Kathryn's story were still pretty good but still nothing on first season
the betty storyline is so diabolical & disrespectful
