Hello friends

Families can talk about the "desperate" housewives themselves: Are they good or bad role models for women? How are they stereotypical -- and how do they defy those stereotypes? How do they get power in their lives? What do they get from each other? The teen characters on the show -- who have been shown drinking, doing drugs, having sex with adults, and lying to parents -- also warrant some discussion. Is their behavior realistic? How should their parents respond when they catch them in the act?

The highly addictive, Emmy-winning DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES centers on the women of Wisteria Lane and their struggles to cope with suburban life. In the show's pilot episode, one of the main characters' friends committed suicide. Amid the standard soap opera plot elements (affairs, addictions, cover-ups), the repercussions of this central mystery are still playing out throughout the tree-lined neighborhood. The ongoing mystery has created a nice wrapper for the show, and the dead woman acts as narrator, adding a creative -- and creepy -- touch.

Thanks.
