So we’ve already established that things are a little wonky (a little?) between Bree and Orson, what with the impending divorce and all. Now that Karl’s in the picture, slutting up the scene and having an affair with Bree, things are even more complicated.

Apparently, Bree’s not the stone-cold tough lady she kinda seems to be, and she’s going to face some stress about breaking one of those Ten Commandments. (Wait, infidelity is one, right?)

According to Mickey O’Connor from TV Guide, Bree will turn to “an old friend who you might have thought was out of the picture.” Well, let’s see….all her previous husbands/boyfriends (Rex? George the Pharmacist?) are dead…..

Who could it be? Wait….Zach Young??? Could it be?? That was one of my BIGGEST problems with the first season, is that he and his father just…went away. Now that I think about it, I’m fairly certain it’s gotta be Zach! Right? Maybe?

Who do you think it is?

Desperate Housewives “Death Falls Upon Edie”
Air Date: March 21, 2009
Liveblog/recap

I’ve got some new thoughts going into this episode this week. After all the hype over the “lesbian kiss” from last week, I’m nervous about the amount of hype surrounding the wife-dying episode. So I’m thinking that because we have five episodes left, that Edie won’t die this episode. So I’ve got a theory — something will happen to her to put her in what I call the “soap opera coma.” You may remember from a few seasons back when Mike was in the “soap opera coma.” Usually, they have some sort of miraculous can’t-happen-in-real-life recovery, but we already know that Nicollette Sheridan is leaving the show, sooo….

Anyway, we’ve got a packed house tonight: Neighbor Peggy, Neighbor Peggy’s boyfriend, Cameron, and friend Erin all are tuning in to watch the OMG-BIG-SCARY-SOMEONE-DIES episode tonight. Enough wasting time, onto the episode!!
9:00:  “Dave Willilams had been planning the murder for years.” …as he eats Doritos.
9:01: This little insight into Dave’s crazy is FANTASTIC. Although, if his plan is to kill Katherine, then obviously his plan is going to go awry and he’s going to kill someone who’s not Katherine. As per my prediction, I think it’s not going to be Edie, but Peggy says it is. She might be right.
9:04: KARL. YES. It’s been way too long since we’ve seen him! I just realized that the only time I really liked Susan was when she had Karl putting her in her place. Now, don’t get me wrong — I don’t think Karl’s a good person, by any means, but I love watching him.

It’s funny, but Marcia Cross sounds like she’s taking tips from Bree’s mothering habits — and doing the exact opposite for her real-life children.

It’s good news (for DH fans) to hear that she’s got no interest in reprising her character of Dr. Kimberly Shaw Mancini for the Melrose Place remake — because she feels like she’s done everything possible with that character. How much more can she do with Bree?

Desperate Housewives “The Story of Lucy and Jessie”
Air Date: March 15, 2009
Liveblog/recap

I’m watching the show by myself tonight. Neighbor Peggy’s got a lot of teacher-homework-business to do, so she’s missing out on the OMG 2 GURLS R GUNNA KISS episode. At ANY rate, I guess it’s all on me to make fun of the writers for using a tired, society-damaging device like a lesbian kiss to get more viewers. Let’s see if it was worth it…

9:00: The previously on shows Crazy Dave organizing his camping trip. This is one of the stories I’ve been dying to see more of. So has Edie! And Bradley! And Amy’s off to a terrible, non-hilarious start to tonight’s live blog. Will she get less funny? Stay tuned to find out.
9:03: Funny how things work out, eh? Carlos and Gaby can use Boss Bradley’s bribes to keep his cheating ways quiet to their benefit — and do all these things some would call “sinful,” and, in the end, Carlos gets Bradley’s job. What would you call that? Luck?
9:05: Edie just found out that Crazy Dave’s adorable daughter died in the same crash as his wife…and well, that he even had an adorable daughter to begin with. Want more! Want more! I want the entire show to be about Dave and Edie.
9:07: Aw, I was hoping for Lynette to stand up for herself when those two “old” 28-year-olds started rambling like Rachel McAdams in “Mean Girls” about how “old” women don’t stand a chance in the biz. Instead, all we got  was a “call my kids if you hear a gunshot”? Come on Lynette, where you at, lady???
9:08: And here’s our first opportunity to see Susan teaching — and Swoosie Kurtz! As previously reported, we knew she was going to be on the show, but we didn’t know how. Now we will…
9:10: Orson’s trying to justify his thievery to Bree. She’s not getting it. “Stealing a ceramic duck give you a thrill?” Ha! And he scoffs at the idea of talking to a psychiatrist, and says he’s not crazy. Oh, right, and Bree met you at the supermarket, was it, Orson? Right? Ooohhh, yeaaaah. Nice try, dude, but Dave’ll probably be leaving the show soon, and let’s face it: Every good awesome/trashy soap opera needs at least one crazy. You’ll take that crown from Dave, Orson.

Orson might have tried to kill Mike on the show, but his real-life counterpart is using his power to help others.

Kyle MacLachlan, along with other celebrities and pro-golfers, will play in Callaway Golf Foundation’s Annual Pro-Celebrity Tournament on Monday, USA TODAY reports.

All the proceeds from the event go to the Entertainment Industry Foundation, which supports research for new prevention tests and therapies for breast, colon, prostate and ovarian cancers.

“As someone whose family has been personally touched by cancer, I felt it was important to get involved to raise awareness of ovarian cancer,” Kyle said. “Most people don’t think about ovarian cancer until someone in their family has it, and, by then, it’s often too late. One of the goals is to get ovarian cancer on people’s radar.”

Here’s another sneak peek of Sunday’s episode 4×15 “Mother Said”. It’s a great clip of Bree and Orson. Orson wants to see Benjamin and Bree is not giving in. She is mad as can be about Orson’s little rendezvous with Edie. Who wouldn’t be?

It’s going to be very interesting to see how their relationship plays out in the next few episodes. Do you think they’ll get back together? I have a feeling she will forgive him. I guess we’ll have to wait and see!
