I watch it when I have nothing else to do. It's complete mindless entertainment.
I think the show is seriously hilarious in how much none of it makes any god damn sense. I was cracking up at how in the season finale, there was an evil man killed in a car explosion, the revelation that a neighborhood kid was a serial killer and held Lynette hostage while she delivered her baby, one of the neighborhood families suddenly disappear without a trace, and the day after all this happens, they stand around Susan's yard going, "Hey, we better meet up for poker this week!" and not a single one of them mention the CRAZYthat just went down. Even though you'd think Susan would say something about how the guy who choked her daughter was finally caught. And then there's all these random disasters happening like hurricanes and planes crashing onto the street. xD
I mean, this show is just ridiculous. But I like watching it when I'm cooking or working on stuff on the computer. It's great background television.
And the acting is also kinda superb. Even with these crazy storylines, the lead actresses still manage to do an incredible job. Felicity Huffman in particular is amazing.
