More news on the new season: It is now confirmed that Drea de Matteo will be joining the show as Angie Vitale. She brings with her a young, hot son who will mix things up on Wisteria Lane and her husband played by Jeffrey Nordling.

Also, Andrea Bowen will be returning as Julie who has returned from Princeton ready to hide some of her own secrets.

The upcoming Season 6 should be full of mystery and secrets. I’m sure the new housewife will stir up messes of her own. New season starts September 27th at 9pm. Stay tuned for more news leading up to the premiere.

Off to the Emmys…Or not so much

Rough Emmy year for the Housewives. As the awards were announced yesterday the names of the Housewives were noticeably absent. But the show did get two nods:

Outstanding Guest Actor In A Comedy Series
Desperate Housewives • The Best Thing That Ever Could Have Happened • ABC • ABC Studios Beau Bridges, as Eli Boggs

Outstanding Hairstyling For A Single-Camera Series
Desperate Housewives • The Best Thing That Ever Could Have Happened • ABC • ABC Studios Gabor Heiligenberg, Department Head Hairstylist Dena Green, Hairstylist James Dunham, Hairstylist Maria Fernandez-DiSarro, Hairstylist

Congrats to Beau Bridges and the hair department for their noms though. Word on the street is that Julie will be returning for her mother’s wedding in the September premiere. Also, two new characters will be added this season including a role played by Drea De Matteo best known for her role on ‘The Sopranos.’

Drama!

Desperateblog.com is reporting a USAToday article concerning Teri Hatcher’s unhappiness with the lack of her TV daughter’s, played by Andrea Bowen, role in next season, which will be limited. This is drama! Teri Hatcher spoke out against the network/producers.

I’m sad to see Andrea Bowen go. I really like her character. Julie and Susan’s relationship gives me a less funny Gilmore Girls vibe.

In shock

heber — Wed, 21 May 2008 22:20:32 +0000

I had to resort to watching the finale at work Monday because Sunday I missed it. Anyway, I was just as shocked as you are at everything that happened. Especially in the last 5 minutes of the show. 5 years from now? But aren’t there only going to be 3 more seasons? So many questions. I did some research, checking my usual DH sources. On desperateblog.com, the new man in the future of Susan’s life is Gale Harold (pictured left). The post also confirmed that he would be returning in Season 5 in September.

DesperateBlog also reported Sunday night’s ratings as 16.4 million for the first hour and 17.2 million for the second hour. That’s pretty good considering that since the strike viewership overall has been down on all networks.

There was a great article in USA Today concerning the finale. It’s an interesting article and I highly suggest you take a look at it.

Here is the final shocking part of the finale if you would like to watch it again.

Right Now

So the finale is on right now. But I just found this clip of Teri Hatcher on YouTube from desperateblog.com. Check it out!

No. Shhhh!

heber — Wed, 14 May 2008 02:43:17 +0000

That’s the answer I was forced to give each time someone asked if I had seen the Desperate Housewives finale. It’s on my schedule. Just haven’t gotten to it yet. So “no. shhh!”.
