I never saw that show either. For some reason I didn't set out to watch 24 Hours, I'm not into tv too much -- I think I just happened to see the first episode and that's been the only show I look forward to -- or know what night and time it will be on.
It would be nice if the author backed up his assertion with some facts. Such as, how many votes did President Bush receive in the red states and how many viewers does Housewives have?
"Did he also believe that Harry Potter told you exactly how students in boarding schools really lived?"
I don't know. If they're dumb enough to believe the MSM and kowtow to Michael Moore, they are probably dumb enough to believe practically anything.
Why do liberals knock suburbia, green lawns and housewives? The Left's critique of the bourgeois will always be with us. With the public at large, the preference for the normal and and settled pace of every day existence is always stronger than any desire to change the world. Human nature, to the bane of liberals, always reasserts itself. Let's hear three cheers for surburbia!
Most straight adult men should get quickly bored with the show, since we all knew women like this in the past. And left them there.
Because they hate America.
I watch it.
Conservatives should have sex as much as possible. I know I do.
From hearing Glenn Beck talk about it I've yet to see my first showing of it and i most likely never will.
It's not stealth....it's not smarmy like American Beauty the movie, the left loved.
It's saitirical a bit and goofy but funny and all the middle aged to youngish gals are attractive which doesn't hurt.
I am really sensitive to PC jabs in shows and movies and I have seen none in this one.
The show that follows it Boston Legal is nauseatingly full of Bush bashing. Shame to waste Spader and Shatner's talents.
DHW is the only network show I watch or have watched in decades......Terry Hatcher is an inspriation for 40 year old wives....hot...very.
I know a dozen Conservatives here in Nashville that watchg it.
Husbands and wives...together....like my wife and I.
Captain Nemo's island in Lost is a better TV show. DH is dull and most of the characters are morally repellent.
Hmmm. I tend to think of watching TV and having sex as two different things.
There is no TV in our bedroom.
Yep...the bedroom is for two things.
Sleeping ....and uhhhhh.....sleeping.
Watch it. It's fun.
It's kind of a guilty pleasure, except I don't feel guilty.
I was watching it the other night and the domestic partner comes through prepared to scoff at me.
ten minutes later he's still standing there watching and asking me a bunch of crap like, "who's she?" "what did he do?"
It's definitely tongue in cheek. (and many other places as well.
But conservative eras instill a much harsher mood
Perhaps I'm not paying attention, but I haven't noticed any significant change in pop culture since Dubya took office, except maybe that it's gotten more lurid, as it always does.
The problem for democrats is that Republicans enjoy sex. Just with their husbands or wives respectivly. I bet they even love their spouses (GASP!)
I bet they even like their children. (double GASP!)
I've never watched it. Don't think I ever will. Looks like
typical lib trash to me. On this mornings CNN gab fest at
seven am one of the talking head news gals said she loves it, why am I not surprised.
It's a little offbeat, but there's some good life situation humor. It's mainly tongue in cheek, but there are a few twists in the plot. There's been a couple of murders and a suicide in Wisteria.
The voice-over is the woman who committed suicide, and her friends (the living desperate housewives) are trying to figure out why she did it. Nothing is too disturbing in the show, but you become involved with analyzing the characters, and what makes them tick.
I just hope that with its popularity the writers don't take it over the edge. I've seen that happen enough times.
