Top Ten MORE Things I Learnt While Watching Desperate Housewives

It’s been a slow week. Plus today’s Wednesday, so it’s that time of the week again. For those who missed it, check out my earlier postings about this show here and here. Can’t wait for the weekend.

Women outnumber men 4 to 1 in America.
Flashing your cleavage on prime time TV soap is a surefire way of getting on Oprah.
Everyone can come up with meaningful one-liners and exit lines at the right time.
Divorced ex-spouses (not featured in the show) are usually jerks / tramps / bad parents / going through mid-life crisis.
People leave guns and stacks of money lying around in their kitchen cabinets.
You can commit a heinous crime like arson / hit & run murder / grand theft and still get away with it, because youâ€™re a main character and therefore automatically qualifies you for â€˜good-guyâ€™ immunity.
Everyone can afford a luxury single-bed hospital room when they are sick or run down by a car. And the hospital always have a room available. Unlike here in Malaysia.
The grass is always greener on the lawn of the house on TV.
On the average, per episode, there are two shocking revelations, one tearful / heart-wrenching scene, two quite funny / humorous situations and one lovey-dovey declaration by one of the lead characters.
Some bloggers who have no life spend their evenings watching Desperate Housewives.

What have you done to me? After refraining for so long, last night I succumbed to it and watch Desperate Housewives for the first time, Simon made me did it!…but I promised myself not to get hooked, and it lasted only for 15 minutes and I went back to Air Crash Investigation on National Geographic,…hopefully that does not qualify me as one of those bloggers who have no life…hehe;)
