To think Susan Mayer from Desperate Housewives is a massive cheeky fucker?

[WickedWitchOfTheEast87]

Light hearted not to be taken seriously just for laughs. Currently rewatching Desperate Housewives which I absolutely love. I'm on series three and watching the episode where Susan begs Gaby to go on a date with Zach Young and ask him if he would pay for Mike Delfino's lawyer to get him out of prison. I think that's massive cheeky fucker behaviour from her considering she didn't want Zach anywhere near Julie or herself because of his creepy behaviour in the previous two seasons but she's fine to throw Gaby under the bus when Zach is stalking Gaby!

There's also other examples of her horrible behaviour like when she got angry at Edie, Katherine and Bree for sleeping with her exes and preaches girl code but she never sticks to it herself she went out on a date with Edie's builder to make a point to Edie that she doesn't need her permission and she wasn't even interested in the guy! Then there's her obsession with proving Orson killed his wife and she broke into his dental practice and snooped through his private papers! She's always snooping around into other people's business as if she has the right to do so. Anyone else agree with me? Who's your favourite character and least favourite and why?

@RubDibDab and @whenthebellsring I agree Lynette did some bad stuff but she wasn't as bad as Susan she had some good qualities. She supported Tom over Nora and Kayla and all she got in return was a load crap. Tom was a wimp who allowed Nora to overstep boundaries in their family and when Lynette stood up to her Tom couldn't even have her back! She saw through Nora from day one and she knew Kayla was just like her mother but Tom refused to listen and blamed Lynette and accused her of playing favourites when he was doing the exact same thing! Lynette also supported him when he opened the pizzaria with their savings which was a big risk. She got Tom his liquor liscence and she ran the pizzaria and the home when he injured his back and couldn't work for weeks and was struggling to cope. I get why she complained because she always had to do the heavy lifting so to speak whereas Tom always had an excuse to get out of doing hard work like when he decided to be a stay at home dad and when Penny puked on their bedsheets he put a towel over it and expected Lynette to actually sleep in the bed with that and got angry when she refused! I wouldn't wanna sleep on sheets with puke in them thats disgusting

Ah, yes I agree Tom's an idiot and a CF too.

I think they were all CFs in their own ways - I just couldn't stand Susan's CFery.

Knew Kayla was like her mother?

I mean Kayla was fine before her mother (the only parent she’d had for a majority of her life) was murdered. Think a murdered parent might make a child a bit traumatised. She was also fed lies by Nora and that twisted her perception of Lynette.

@whenthebellsring at last someone who agrees with me about Tom! All my friends who watch the show think he's a fantastic husband but he's not he's also a CF LOL

Susan's CF behaviour was the worst! At least the others did learn from it but Susan was a cheeky fucker all the way through. I watched another episode where Edie said Susan is an acquired taste and I was 🤣🤣 because she's 100% spot on

@RubDibDab Actually Nora used Kayla to spy on Tom and Lynette thats how Nora knew he was staying at the pizzaria Kayla phoned her and told her so Nora probably did pour her poison in Kayla's ears which I was implying with the knew she was like her mother comment sorry I should have been a bit more clearer. I get Kayla was traumatised but she was still a little psycho with how she set Lynette up for child abuse I remember that episode and she gave me the creeps with what she said to Lynette when she threatened Penny. It just goes to show how talented the actress was I wish they had brought Kayla back in the five year jump that storyline felt unfinished

Susan didn’t exactly get a happy ending though did she. All the others did.

I loved desperate housewives, well the early series of it anyway. Haven't watched in years- I'll have to start on it once I've finished all of Outlander.

My favourite was always Gabby, Eva Longoria was fantastic in that role and a great comedic actress. Gabby was so selfish to start with yet still likeable, although kind of grim that John was meant to be so young wasn't it?! I know Jesse Metcalfe was a lot older but still 😂
