We watched all but the last 15 minutes this morning. We'll finish the rest at lunch. So if there's a big twist/reveal ending like they usually do, we haven't seen it yet.

But, based on what we've seen so far, it looks like they are setting up some very good stories this season. Is the woman Orson visited in the mental hospital last year his wife? I liked his old neighbor - she played Jackie on Rosanne and I used to love that show!

I'll post again after we've watched the last of the show.

Well I watched the show last night. I really like that their trying to set up a mystery with Orson and his "missing" wife. And perfectionist Bree seems like such a perfect match for OCD Orson. That scene after him cleaning the wine glasses was hysterical.

I don't overly understand why Tom and Lynette are tolerating this Nora woman. In reality, they'd just file for visitation and not contend with her antics.

I hope that reunite Carlos and Gabby - they have good chemistry and their storylines are always fun.

I thought it was an excellent show last night and can't wait for next week. Lynette is trying so hard to please Tom, if I was Lynette I would be in a mental hospital by now, that Nora lady is driving me insane. Do you not get that you are not part of Lynettes family??? As for Gabrielle and Carlos I hope they get back together too cuz I can not imagine Gabby trying to raise that child on her own. Now Bree, she seems to have handled the news about Orson killing his wife as a joke, to me, it seems like he did. I would have told Orson to leave immediately until I could have direct evidence that he did not. I loved Orsons neighbour, Jackie from Roseanne. She played her so well. I loved Roseanne too and hope Jackie stays as a regular on the show. Next week looks rather interesting from the preview.

The scene where Bree was describing her "mini-stroke" was hysterical! Poor Bree... :D

I think Tom and Lynette are tolerating Nora because they were so afraid she would file for back child-support. Did they ever say whether she accepted that pay-off and signed a waiver? If yes, then they need to tell her to get a life and file for visitation. She annoys me.

So was the body at the end supposed to imply it was Orson's ex-wife? I guess it's not the mental-hospital woman then. Still wonder who that is.

Oh, also, I saw a sneak-preview show where they showed Orson... hmm I better spoiler tag this.

Orson was standing over Mike's hospital bed (still in a coma) and whispered something along the lines of, "Payback" - like he had a prior connection that caused him to run Mike over last season!

I thought this recent show was a bit disconnected. I found the way the were piecing through the storylines a little forced.

I did enjoy the birthing scene - when that baby came out. I hope they decide to keep it.
I dont think they did since they came home already without it

I hope the show gets back to what it was in the first season.
I think Season 3 is on its way to doing just that. I'm enjoying it much, much more than I did Season 2.

yeah, i hope it just stays on the path it's on. the bigger season wide mystery works, especially when it is one you care about and does matter to the ladies of wisteria lane. figuring out who was in betty applewhite's basement didn't really come off as that compelling really.

I liked Betty Applewhite, don't get me wrong. It just wasn't a good season-long mystery. I think they could have added her to the mix but found a better something to worry about.
