VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Fun90mighty90 The title for the series "Desperate Housewives" was misleading when it was released for the first time in 2004, obviously, because you get the immediate feeling that the show is targeted at the female audience, however, the show not only includes female characters, it also includes male characters too, surprisingly enough. In my opinion as a male, Desperate Housewives, is brilliant! Susan, Bree, Lynette, Gabrielle and Edie, are 5 very different woman/characters, who all live on the same street in Fairview. You are introduced to each character properly so that you can get a good idea of what each woman is like and how they act. From the outside, you would think their lives are perfect. They all have huge houses, manicured lawns, high fashioned clothes and expensive cars, but what makes Desperate Housewives so interesting to me, is that you get to follow these woman through their imperfect lives. The series, at first, focuses on these characters, however, it doesn't take long for the other characters to be put under the microscope. Desperate Housewives includes nearly all life themes and problems that nearly every person watching it has experienced in their life. It has characters most of us can relate to. It has moments that require really good acting and my god... can the actors and actresses pull them off well! After watching the series more than once, I have noticed that the episodes start off with the theme of what the episode is all about, which could be money, loss, grief, betrayal and so on, then the title sequence with all the famous paintings portraying domesticity and interactions between men and woman since early mankind, then the episode starts off with a rather light atmosphere and then by the end, it has quite a sad and reflective atmosphere. I think this is done deliberately because life isn't always easy and all of us human beings are trying to live our lives as best we can but we all learn our biggest lessons from the mistakes we make. Desperate Housewives is original, clever, sometimes smug and offers really good socially awkward moments and really emotional sad moments. I think this series should be more appreciated. It definitely offered something new and different. I'm just gutted it ended.

Alek D After never watching the show when it played on TV I finally purchased all the seasons in Google Play and after finally finishing all the episodes I have to say that I really enjoyed watching this show and there was never a moment when I got bored. This show takes place on the street called Wisteria Lane and follows the lives of the four main characters Bree, Susan, Lynette & Gabrielle. This show is filled with lots of drama and mysteries. Every one of the actors/actresses that have come on the show have played their role very well. The series final had a very good ending and included most of the characters that have been in the show throughout the 8 seasons.

Erika C. To keep it simple, this show is one of my top favorites, along with the show Devious Maids which was also created by the same man, Marc Cherry.It's entertaining, it's dramatic, it's gossip-y, it's juicy, it's ridiculous and most of all, it's funny and at times, witty.The characters and the acting is great. You really learn to connect and have an attachment/liking to each character and there's also aspects that make you roll your eyes, but all in all it's entertaining to watch and that's what we watch shows for - entertainment!I've watched the entire series and I've gone back to re-watch it again and it's still entertaining. The nice thing about this show is that there is CONTENT. I can't stand shows that have filler episodes where nothing happens, nothing in the story changes and you aren't left wondering what will happen next. Not with this show, there's also little shocks and twists along the way.

imhismommy08 I just finished the last episode of DHW and I just have to say that I am sad. I watched all 8 seasons on Netflix and I got so caught up in the drama that I would stay up until 12 sometimes 2 am watching it. I loved these women like I knew them. I felt every emotion with them, sad, happy, excited, heart broken, etc. If this series was brought back to television I would for SURE watch it. I am so happy that Tom and Lynette got back together, that broke my heart to see them break up. My favorite of all is definitely Susan! She is hilarious, cute, clumsy (like me), beautiful, smart and oh so witty! Thank you so much for such a wonderful show.
