"Desperate Housewives" is one of my favourite television shows. It's not as over-the-top and totally pointless like 'Ugly Betty' [which, by the way, is majorly Camp]. In fact, the five Desperate Housewives get into all sorts of bizarre situations [not entirely unbelievable], and inspite of all their fumblings and stumblings, learn a lot about life along the way [and so do we viewers].
You may not agree with me off the bat, but if you look beyond the surface, it's a wonderful series, with several layers, and a lot of good old value education wrapped up inside. It helps me as an individual to recignise that everyone is different, and that people who may seem a little srange, are in fact, like the Lobo Song "a little different from you, a little different from me, but a lot like the man who walked through Galilee."
Desperate Housewives is all about going beyond the stereotype, and realising what a wonderful world it is when we have people of all shapes, shades, sizes living in our neighbourhood. It doesn't matter whether they are strippers, or on the run, or old crackpots who don't recycle. there's potential for being an angel, and a devil in each one of us!
