DESPERATE IMAGES

The foxy ladies on Wisteria Lane are back to their early Season 1 magic as the first two episodes of the third season have clearly shown. Kudos to Marc Cherry for keeping his word that he would improve the bubbly dramedy with wishes that the rest of the season remains equally entertaining. By the way, wouldn't it be lovely if Orson (Kyle McLanchlan) got rid of that excruciatingly irritating Nora? Or perhaps the writers could ditch her in that upcoming November hostage standoff at the supermarket?

Next Sunday on a very hunky edition of 'Housewives' Jesse Metcalfe returns for one episode as the now-engaged John Rowland. Shawn Pyfrom also returns as Andrew ruining Bree's (Marcia Cross) honeymoon as she learns he has become a hustler. Also, Austin and Julie get it on. The word is out that Mark Moses (Paul Young) and Richard Burgi (Karl) will also return for an episode during November sweeps.
