Over the past few days I’ve seen the first 3 episodes…. backwards. And – it’s good. It’s very good. There’s just the right blend of drama and comedy, with the ‘unmissable’ factor that comes from a good plot. It’s not particularly deep but there’s enough substance to make it great TV. The narration by the dead character (don’t worry – I’m not spoiling anything) is a bit cheesy but quirky enough to hold the thing together.
Everybody does end up looking like a supermodel though – aren’t the suburbs Super-Sized too? 
Glad you like the show. Doesn’t compare to Sex and the City though but it’s close to it
Don’t you just love the mother with the 3 kids? (Of course, not for her looks!)
That family reminds me of Malcolm in the Middle!
Never seen desperate housewives, but I love Malcolm in the Middle!
Malcolm in the middle is great, always seem to miss desperate housewives though.
