I thoroughly enjoyed her humor, as I always do. However, I just wish she would not have used Desperate Housewives. It was cute; but why give free advertisment to such a disgusting, IMHO, sitcom?

I'm not a prude. I am just tired of the sex and violence on TV, movies, and teen music. Just count how many lawyer, police, and detective programs on TV each night. They always deal with murder, and rape. It has become overbearing.

I don't disagree with that sentiment. I do not watch the show though others in my household do. I thought that since part of the reason that the spoof worked was that Laura was being everything she isn't in real life, that such a comparison added to the effect. I think most people know she adores her husband and is the farthest thing from a "desperate housewife" that we know of.

As for your other sentiment, I watched two episodes of "Law and Order" with my parents over the weekend and during the second one my dad asked "What gory show are we watching now?" I suggested changing the channel.
