1. She's awesome on that show

[Lindsey]

3. Right on! Best show of the new season! n/t

[Mizmoon]

2. I'm afraid to ask

but what is this show about? Is it a reality show?

[flamingyouth]

5. Depends on your definition of "reality"

Just kidding. No, it's a serio-comic drama. Great show, you should check it out sometime. :hi:

[Lindsey]

6. It's very quirky - about a neighborhood of dysfunctional

folks but with some wonderful twists and turns. A friend of mine is an assistant producer and I've been hearing about this show for quite some time. I'm thrilled that it's such a success! :-)

[AlCzervik]

8. it's like a super campy Knot's Landing, i love it

totally takes you away from everything.

[Captain Lance Bass]

4. I would support her as well :-)

10. Great show!

Desperate Housewives is so great. I guess it's a dark comedy/mystery thriller with several teasers thrown in. All the characters are stereotypes in a way, but they have quirky human sides, too... which saves the show.

The acting is terrific, and Marcia Cross is outstanding in her too-perfect Martha Stewartesque role. All of the women have super parts as well, except for poor Niccolette Sheridan, who seems sort of gratuitous and out of place, simply serving as a foil for Teri Hatcher's character. It's all good, though. I can see multiple emmys written all over it.

15. Hi ananda!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[JI7]

11. Terri Hatcher supports Kerry also

but i'm not sure if she made any financial contributions.

[President Jesus]

18. she hasn't (nt)

[npincus]

12. saw her on Oprah- she's very shy and modest. She said she had paniced

in her dressing room before going on the stage. She also talked about he she wishes she had a man and a family and a nice house (the so-called 'American Dream') and seemed not so thriled with the glamourous life of a tv star. Very sweet and self-deprecating.

[TheDonkey]

13. she's excellent!

I love that show and her character is SO that show. Hillarious in the creepy stepford wife way.

[sendero]

16. She...

... is almost too good in that role. The character is spooky but also fascinating.

On last nights episode, she told the neighbor kid a story about the death of her mother that explains a lot :)

[ShaneGR]

14. She played the psycho on Melrose Place....

Good actress.

[GOPNotForMe]

19. Kimberly!

Loved her!

[Doctor_J]

17. teri and felicity are dems too

dunno about eva or nicolette

that show is really disgustingly irresistable. Lots of eye candy and hilarious plot twists. the two main males (carlos and the plumber) are great too. Looks like they've run Jack & Bobby off the air though :-(

[Philostopher]

20. I'd venture a guess Felicity's husband is, also.

Or at least isn't much fond of Bush* -- for those who don't know, she's married to William H. Macy.

[Doctor_J]

23. yes, he is

i think all of mamet's friends from chicago are.

[Philostopher]

25. I was right.

He contributed to a Dem PAC or 527 and to Nick Clooney's campaign (Nick is George Clooney's dad):

[President Jesus]

27. possibly, but he hasn't donated to Kerry either

William H. Macy

nor has David Mamet
http://www.newsmeat.com/fec/bystate_detail.php?first=David&last=Mamet&st=

But both appear to be solidly Dem!

22. They only ran Jack and Bobby to Wednesday night :-)

It is really unfortunate that the two best shows of the new year went up against each other.

[Doctor_J]

24. yeah, against WW

one step from oblivion.

26. Pimple popper, M.D.!
