Thanks to Marc Cherry and Shonda Rhimes, the ABC show-runner panel was a good way to start the afternoon. Unfortunately, things went downhill from there, as the panels for
Dirty Sexy Money, Private Practice, and Desperate Housewives were surprisingly dull, especially considering the fact that Cherry and Rhimes returned for the
DH and
Practice panels, respectively.
Even something Cherry said that seemed like it would be news -- that he's going to end
DH after the seventh season -- turned out to be old hat, as he
announced the very same thing at the Winter 2007 tour. "Yeah, I've made the decision that after seven years, I will probably keel over in a hump and die," he said. "I love my baby, you know. I love working with these gals, but the idea of letting anyone else take the show from me kind of makes me sad and sick to my stomach."

(S04E15) "Do you love Kayla?" - Dr. Joshua Dolan to Lynette"Mother Said" was quite the eventful episode since it pushed forward all of the ladies' storylines and dealt with two big secrets: Benjamin's and Dylan's parents. It also featured scenes of the four main characters together, which we haven't seen much lately.

(S04E14) "I thought you were a hooker." - Gaby to EllieFinally, after weeks of being almost useless to the series (those of you who read my reviews regularly know that lately I've been rooting for the Solises to leave Wisteria Lane), Gaby and Carlos got a meatier storyline thanks to the addition for a few episodes of Mallory Keaton, err,
Justine Bateman. The downside? The storyline is too predictable.

One of the ongoing rumors about
Desperate Housewives is that one of the ladies will be leaving the show at the end of the season. It's a rumor we actually heard almost every year. However, it's been growing lately, especially in light of the
big twist set to happen at the end of the two-hour season finale and of recent cast interviews in which we learned that no one is safe.
Of course, it's pretty much a given that the four main characters (Bree, Susan, Gaby, Lynette) will be returning next season. Word on the street is that Katherine will also be coming back since fans have been responding positively to her addition. With that info in hand, fingers were pointed at one housewife: Edie, played by Nicollette Sheridan.

(S04E13) "Everyone has a reason for not following the rules." - Mary AliceThings are definitely moving forward on Wisteria Lane. This week, we found out who set Rick's restaurant on fire, Mike finally discovered that Orson ran him over, Dylan met her father, and Edie actually made sense!

(S04E11) "A church isn't a place for questions. It's a place for answers." - Bree to LynetteAfter months without new episodes of
Desperate Housewives, I was like Lynette this week: I had questions and wanted answers. Sadly for me, Lynette's quest for answers and faith took precedent over my own curiosity and hopes.
As you know, I'm
a spoilers addict, so my expectations for the remaining season 4 episodes of the series were pretty high since I was promised loads of answers about the mysteries surrounding Katherine and Dylan. Because of my wanting of answers, Lynette's storyline, which took most of the air time this week, felt flat.

(S04E09) "It was supposed to be a beautiful day." - Mary Alice"The most elaborate episode ever produced in the history of the series" (per what ABC said in the episode's press release) finally aired. A lot of fans have been looking forward to
Desperate Housewives' tornado episode for weeks (myself included), especially since two somewhat important characters were said to die. Did the episode deliver? Were expectations too high?

(S04E08) "If the cover has holes in it, the book is no good." - Susan to Julie when the latter tells her mother not to judge a book by its coverIt was blackmail time this week on
Desperate Housewives. Okay, that's nothing new but this week, it played an important part of more than one storyline. "A Distant Past" also offered the conclusion of the Stella storyline and started a new chapter in the Victor/Gaby/Carlos triangle.

(S04E07) "Trust but verify." - Bree to SusanDeception was the trend of the week on Wisteria Lane. All
Desperate Housewives storylines moved forward; the most important move was probably the dive that took the love triangle involving Carlos, Gaby, and Victor.

(S04E06) "Sometimes greatness needs a little nudge." - MiltonThe moment of truth arrived: Danielle gave birth. About three weeks ago, I polled TV Squad visitors about
the sex of Danielle's baby. Close to 54% of the voters thought it would be a baby girl but
spoilers readers knew since mid-September that the baby would be a boy.

"Bossy women rule this street." - LynetteDesperate Housewives episodes are not consistent this year (were they ever in the past?) but they are at least entertaining. First, we got a good premiere. Then, we were treated with a delicious lemon meringue face off between Bree and Katherine. This was followed by a somewhat disappointing game night. And last week, we witness what I call a filler episode since storylines (maybe except the Bree one) didn't advance much and Susan was so ridiculously stupid that it was uncomfortable to watch her. In short, we were due for a good
Desperate Housewives episode.

"I hope we can live up to your stereotypes." - Lee to Susan.This week's episode marked the arrival of
Desperate Housewives' first official
gay adult couple. Bob and Lee didn't have a major impact on the Wisteria Lane residents yet but they sure made Susan go out of her ways to be liked!

"Uncomfortable people don't ask questions." - KatherineLast week introduced "Kree" or "Bretherine" (two suggestions made by TV Squad reader
D) to us. Most of the TV Squad readers who took part in
our poll seemed to like the nemesis and their respectful yet devilish fights. After last week's great episode, I had high expectations for this week's
Desperate Housewives: I wanted more Bree and Katherine face offs, I wanted to get a few clues to the Mayfairs' secret, and I wanted the hit man hired by Carlos to take care of Edie.

"We better start coming up with better lies." - KatherineAfter a controversial season premiere (in case you haven't heard,
ABC had to apologize for a joke Susan made while in Adam's office),
Desperate Housewives tries to have the Mayfairs, who moved to Wisteria Lane last week, settle in.
In last week's TV Squad DH poll, 68% of the voters said they thought the Mayfairs were a good addition to the show. Based solely on last week's episode, I have to agree. But now that we are getting more backstory about the Mayfairs and seeing them interact more with their neighbors, have we changed our mind?

"No more secrets. From now on, we tell every shocking details of our lives." - LynetteThe ladies of
Wisteria Lane
are back and it's certain that they won't follow through on the promise they made to each other to not keep secrets! The
Season Three finale of
Desperate Housewives may not have been the most
cliffhanger-y out there, but still, fans (I include myself in the lot) were wondering
what was in store for the ladies and their men this upcoming season. But most importantly, we wanted to know if Edie survived her suicide attempt.
