Haha yeah, I guess I am going to. I've managed to last this long without sneaking a peak online, but now C4 have forced me into being a weak human

[lowesr]

I do know of a site that shows episodes of DH which have not been on in the uk yet so you could watch BB and still get your fix of DH

[AdamB]

I wonder why Channel 4 aren't able to show Desperate Housewives and other US shows around the same timeline as Ireland do? The series finale is broadcast tonight on RTE1 here!

[*mazedsalv**]

Desperate Housewives pulled!!! Why?? Its a great show. Its been getting over 2 million(normally 2.2-2.4M) which is good for Channel 4 at 10.

[Wozzy]

Go to www.sidereel.com/Desperate_Housewives and they give you links for sites where you can stream/download DH.

If you haven't got divx I'll suggest you download it, as that streams the show in the best quality. Go to www.divx.com, then download the newest edition, it only take a few seconds and shouldn't slow down your computer in any way.

When you got divx, try out this site www.ninjavideo.net, it is the best site to watch all your fav US shows in divx. A couple of hours after DH aired on Sunday in America they had the epi on their site. All you need to do to watch their videos is to get the http://www.ninjavideo.net/helper.php. It is a similar style download to divx, and it helps to make your divx faster.

If you do all that {it sounds long, but only should take a few minutes top}, then you can sit back and enjoy your DH fix. BTW ninjavideo only has episode 12 onwards. But C4 will pull it after episode 11 so that is the only ones you should need.

Ssshhhh. When you find sites like that if you want them to stick around you should never tell anyone - not publically anyway.


It's now been confirmed by C4 that Desperate Housewives will return with the remaining episodes in the autumn.

GRRR, First Ugly Betty now this. Why can't they just show the remaining episodes earlier or later? C4 are awful when it comes to their american imports.

I know!! Ugly Betty and Desperate Housewives are the best 2 US shows out there right now!

[silverstardust9]

I doubt this, according to the press site, DERREN BROWN: TRICK OR TREAT takes the 10pm slot on Friday 6th June, so me no think so.

And to add, they're not going to pull their (probably) highest rating show. Even C4 aren't that stupid. Besides, the public will come down on C4 like a ton of bricks if they do.

[Brekkie]

Well they have - and C4 have confirmed it today as well.

Desperate Housewives doesn't get the ratings it did a few years ago anyway, and even in a bad season Big Brother would out-rate it - so it all makes perfect sense.

Maybe you can direct me to the Channel 4 statement then, cause I don't consider bbspy as C4

[jkp44]

it has to be on at 9pm it needs to be on at 9pm cause what about the people who have to go to bed at 10 during school time. thats means i have to watch it the next day when they have cutted half of the entertaining bits out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jaaaack.]

I want to cry.

No joke.

Full on cry.

I adore Desperate Housewives and Big Brother.

But I waited forever for DH Season 4 and I don't want it to stop half way through. Like everyone else watched Season 4 on the internet I waited cause I'm sad like that and now I'm gonna have to wait again.

[Fom]

God not been on here in a while. Ive come back since the new series is starting, i said I wasnt gonna talk because I cant be bothered, but I thought desperate housewives viewers would like this news.

DH isnt being pulled due to low ratings or due to big brother. Its being pulled because early this year in America there was a writers strike, and DH was hit by it and it had to stop broadcasting for several months, the series is only just getting back on track in america, and to make sure the uk is the same length of time away as it always is, they are delaying our series of it aswell.

It will be back most likely after BB, but we are basically feeling the effects of what america went through earlier this year. It will most likely happen with alot of your fave programs.

So yeh... hope thats usefull

Desperate Housewives season 4 has finished in America. This is most likely due to Big Brother.

Yes but there is always a time gap between the american series and the uk series, reasons I dont personally know. Just saying... thats why they are cutting a series half way through. Because the tornado/hurricane thingy is the exact point the strike happened.

[Jaaaack.]

Well, We will have Big brother!

[BarnetFC]

it will defo do better at 10pm

[ktwist23]

no no no

lool

Desperate Housewives has NOT BEEN PULLED!

but because of the writers STRIKE in the USA, they dont have that many episodes left. so their waiting untill theres more! but it has not been pulled. thats the same reason why we havent had any Ugly Betty latley!

it should be back before the next CBB !!

[readmymind]

All the episodes are there. The series has finished in Ireland and America. C4 are choosing not to show it in the UK until Autumn so it doesn't clash with their home-made shows.


BTW- series finale is a real REAL SHOCKER!!!

Well it'll be the holidays for most of the time it's on. 10pm is way too early imo for anyone over 13.

[bbcanada]

Hehe, You guys are so behind with Desperate Housewives... here in Canada we get it the same time as America. The TWO HOUR finale was on Sunday night... man was it exciting. Although I REALLY don't like how they ended it.
