Well, I have been wanting to write about the whole Bin Laden thing and my thoughts on that, but I have changed my mind. Instead, I am choosing to write about a little show deemed Desperate Housewives! I know, I know, anyone reading this is thinking, "Really?", and I am here to say "YUP!"
I began watching the Desperate Housewives series about a month ago. It took me so long to give it a chance, but, while browsing through my queue that day, I decided to give the show a shot. I was very apprehensive about the whole thing; however once I started to watch it, I was hooked. Murder, mystery, affairs, but with good acting?! A dream come true ;) Seasons one through three were absolutely engrossing. The twists and turns were insane, but convincingly so. I believe I finished those three seasons in about 3 weeks. Crazy, I know, but I enjoyed these "stories" so much.
Now I am on season five and I cannot believe that so many people told me they lost interest after the first couple of seasons. I find the seasons four and five to be even better than the first three. Perhaps it is their even more blunt use of the ridiculousness of the daytime soap opera, or maybe it is the fact that I know the characters inside and out (goodness, I am sounding pretty lame right about now). It might even be that I need to get a hobby as opposed to watching so much damn TV. Whatever the reason, I cannot quit watching it. Whenever I have time between school and work, I am watching this damn show.
So, I know that this is a crazy thing to write about; actually, it is a crazy thing to admit. It is one thing to enjoy a show you watch once a week, but it is quite another to spend all your time watching that show from episode to episode for the last 2 months. I guess what I am trying to say is, "Make fun of me all you want, but I dare you to watch the first season of the show and not want to continue on through the rest of the series!".
