Editorial Reviews
Despite criticism that Season 2 of Desperate Housewives took too long to establish story arcs -- and that the housewives themselves barely interacted for most of the season -- fans had their patience rewarded with some dazzling, soapy drama. Bree (Marcia Cross) had it hardest this year as she discovers that her boyfriend (a suicide victim) had murdered her husband, Rex (Steven Culp), a revelation that drives her to drink. That leads her to Alcoholics Anonymous, and a new boyfriend, Peter (Oz's Lee Tergesen). Alas, Bree's teen son, Andrew (Shawn Pyfrom), seduces Peter, so as to disgrace Bree and win emancipation from her -- in order to get his hands on his trust fund. Susan (Teri Hatcher) has her own relationship issues involving ex-husband Karl (Richard Burgi), hunky next-door neighbor Mike (James Denton), and Karl's new girlfriend, fellow housewife Edie (Nicollette Sheridan), who burns down Susan's house. Gabrielle (Eva Longoria) wants a baby this season and will do anything to get it, including allowing her maid to be artificially inseminated with her husband, Carlos's (Ricardo Chavira), sperm. Lynette (Felicity Huffman) and Tom (Doug Savant) face financial difficulties, forcing Lynette to return to work at her husband's company. Eventually, their boss decides to fire Tom after revealing to Lynette suspicious business trips he took to Atlantic City. By the end of the season we learn that Tom actually has another daughter, and that her mother has moved to Wisteria Lane to be closer to Tom. Finally, Alfre Woodard received an Emmy nomination for her role as mysterious neighbor Betty Applewhite, who keeps her one son chained up in the basement because he allegedly murdered his brother's girlfriend. The wild and wacky happenings on Wisteria Lane kept Housewives at the top of the ratings charts, as Season 2 placed fourth overall among the season's most-watched TV shows. Dubbed "Extra Juicy" on DVD, the nine-disc Season 2 set arrives with unaired story lines, deleted scenes, and featurettes with series creator Marc Cherry. Christina Urban, Barnes & Noble
