The old adage is to never judge a book by it's cover but it appears many people have judged this show by it's title. The comparison toSex and the City SatC isn't that relevant as SatC 's humor usually involved witty wordplay or physical humor whereas Desparate Housewives' humor is darker and more subtle. Both have its advantages. In this recent era of complete garbage on TV, Desperate Housewives is one of the few glimmers of hope. I'm glad it finished the week as the most watched show of the week (overall, not just new shows). Looks like this piece of quality television will stick around as will 'Arrested Development," although the latter's status is still questionable.
