So far season 7 didn't look so good. But this second half of season, seems to have more compelling storylines. I still hate Bree and Keith together, and I'm disappointed in the way it's replicating an old Susan and Mike storyline. But I'm fine with it regardless, because it means their relationship is about to end soon. The guests in this episode in particular, were great. On top of Lynette's mother's return, Rochelle Aytes was a fine choice to play Keith's ex, and Larry Hagman was hysterical, as his usual « JR » kind of character. And a good callback to how the Winter finale ended, as well. Gregory Itzin was also thriving in his comfort zone, but he nailed all his few scenes. I also loved Gabby's mini depression arc. The way she tried to cope with the loss of another child, was very interesting. The scenes involving the Grace doll, had a special intensity, and Eva Longoria's acting was outstanding there. Her awkward scene with Karen McCluskey, was very funny too. Renee's softer side moments, are always rewarding. And in « I'm Still Here », hers were my second favorite parts of the episode. Obviously, Susan is getting on my nerves again. I know, she's sensitive and shows sympathy towards other people. But it was clear that once again, she was just trying to make this new predicament, easier for her. And her only. Lynette is also my least favorite housewife lately. She's too controlling, and it's obvious writers are building up hers and Tom's impending separation, around that. Beth kind of grew on me, but I'm not sure where all of this « new » Young family drama is leading towards. And I'm not that much intrigued by it either.

OK it's getting a little weird

OK i used to love the housewives. And Bree used to be my favorite character. I mean Marcia Cross is the epitome of class and good taste. But let's face it, the relationship with BA Green turns her into a mother , more than a girlfriend. Bree used to be a lot funnier when she was arguing with Andrew, and even with her daughter. And when she passed out drunk , that was good too. Now she doesn't shine so much anymore. I hope they end up the relationship with Green, Bree is too sophisticated for him. I love Larry Hagman in the episode. This guy will always radiate on the screen.I hope he does more than a cameo, and that he becomes a regular on the show. What a way to end the show!
