Desperate Housewives

Behind the facade of a postcard-perfect subdivision live four women whose lives are anything but idyllic. Klutzy Susan is the divorced mother of teenage Julie. Lynette is married to Tom and the frazzled mother of four rambunctious children. Bree is the neighborhood's Martha Stewart, whose perfect personal, home and family facades mask some major dysfunction. Ex-model Gabrielle, married to the handsome and successful Carlos, wants to have her cake and eat it, too. Looking down on it all is Mary Alice, who took her own life but comments on the lives of her former neighbors.

Premiere:
Oct 03, 2004
