Desperate Housewives
After all those years I never realized how much looks can really be deceiving. Just this week was the season finale of the second season of Desperate Housewives and believe I became an instant fan. It’s obvious that soaps are always over the top dramatic but this one is in a fact a good comedy. I’m not sure if it’s the kind of humor I’ve been acustomed too but every time I watch an episode I laugh out loud on one or two occasions.
So the story starts with the suicide of one of the neighborhood and the housewives are intrigued by the suicide of their friends. It’s a classic soap in the sense that the worse that could happen always happens, whether it’s infidelity, disrespectful children, extra marital activities and murder. All of the proceedings added with a touch of humor and irony. I watched the first season all at once (over a whole week) and was spared the usual cliff hanger. I plan seeing the second season and the upcoming third. It’s a light comedy that was nominated at the Golden Globes, you’ll relate to many themes in that show and you’ll definitely be entertained. These women are gorgeous and their personalities are really something to see. In fact it’s so popular they lost no time making Spanish, German and French traductions.
