First Time Watcher

Came here from Pretty Little Liars. Enjoying seeing some repeat characters & funny how some of the storylines even match up.

My thoughts so far...currently on season 2 episode 2

Zola is overbearing as a mother & SO annoying...I get wanting better for your kid but lord she's 19 not 12

Can't stand Carmen at all, by far my least favorite

Marisol is kinda boring , loved the actress in Ugly Betty but she's kinda boring in this series

Rosie is a great representation of those who are die hard religious yet commit sin but also annoying lol

I don't think you're really supposed to like any of them but Carmen by far is the most annoying...I could skip all of her scenes & don't think I'd miss much

Watched Desperate Housewives & can see the similar vibes but I think DH is better overall

Okay that's it for now!

Just finished a rewatch of all seasons. I agree with you. But I will say that I find the writing /dialog between characters funny and sometimes very clever and dry. The Powells get even funnier. I wish they would do a spin off show!

Desperate housewives is definitely better I watched that then am now on devious maids right after and yeah I wish I could start desperate housewives all over without memory of watching it before 😭

The Powells and Genevieve carry the show
