Episode 3.01: Listen to the Rain on the Roof
Airdate: September 24, 2006
09/22 - When Mary Alice Young’s familiar voice opens the third season of ABC’s “Desperate Housewives” on Sept. 24, one can’t help but thinks her words have a dual meaning. As a storm dumps water onto Wisteria Lane, her words can be applied as easily to what’s happening on the screen as to the tempest the show endured in its second season. “This is what rainy days are good for,” Young says. “They make everything clean again, which is necessary on a street like Wisteria Lane. Where everything can get so messy.” [...] The season premiere hums along just fine, except for a disturbing conversation in which Bree tells her lady friends she does not want to engage in premarital sex with Orson. [...] This time, it’s Bree’s friend Gabby (Eva Longoria) who says, “You wouldn’t buy a car without at least taking it for a little test drive.” Source: MSNBC
09/22 - In Sunday's episode, we'll learn where the shady Orson came from, and as the season progresses, his web will start to untangle. "Mike and Orsondo have a past, and it's slowly revealed," Denton told us. [...] Meanwhile, Gabrielle's kicked Carlos out of the house and is left to deal with his mistress, Xiao Mei, since she is still carrying their baby. And while Xiao Mei's English is broken, she's managed to learn the phrase "What a *****!" over the summer, and she sure knows how to use it! [...] "We meet Tom's daughter in episode one, and we're wanting and struggling to include her in our life. It's really her mother that we'd like to avoid!" said Doug Savant. "In the season opener, there's a great scene, where we're attempting to shoot the family Christmas photo with all the kids. She's very hurt that she's not been included, as only she could expect to be in somebody else's family Christmas photo." Source: Kristin on E!Online
09/14 - Our favorite carrot-topped compulsive does something — or should I say, experiences something — with new beau Orson that literally made me laugh my *** off. Also, Susan does something incredibly clumsy and dumb. Source: Ask Ausiello @ TV Guide

09/11 - The first episode opens six months after the finale with a mystery that is tied directly to Bree, Mike, and Susan. Bree is about to wed the secretive, meticulous dentist Orson, who's hiding something so chilling it gave him reason to run down manly plumber Mike with his car in May's finale. "Let's just say that in many ways Bree has met the perfect man for her… but that will ultimately prove to be the downfall of the relationship," hints Cherry. "The idea that one of our women marries a guy who has dark secrets and possibly a violent streak — I thought there was something exciting about that, but real and relatable."

Episode 3.02: It Takes Two
Airdate: October 1, 2006
09/18 - Susan and Ian have their first official date while their respective lovers remain in comas, and Xaio-Mei, the surrogate mother of Gaby and Carlos’ baby, delivers the long awaited bundle of joy.

07/21 - I hear that Josh Henderson (of Over There, aka Ashlee Simpson's ex-boyfriend) has been offered 15 episodes on Desperate Housewives this season. It was previously announced that Edie's 18-year-old nephew will come to town, so I'm guessing that may be him. Source: Kristin on E!Online
07/21 - Consulting producer Jeff Greenstein reveals: Mike is in a coma at the start of the year, so Susan has been dutifully attending to him. In the course of doing so, she meets a handsome man whose wife is in a coma across the hall. And the analogy Marc used, which I love, is that as she's dutifully attending to the comatose Jimmy Stewart, Cary Grant walks in. So they become sort of coma buddies. It starts out with the two of them sharing coffee in the hallway, and it sort of blossoms into a romance. Obviously, that's going to get really complicated when Mike comes around. [Edies's nephew, Austin, comes to town and begins a relationship with Susan's daughter, Julie. So that becomes sort of a Montague-Capulet sort of situation. It's fun seeing Edie in a parental context. We haven't really seen that too much. Source: The Ausiello Report [Note: The storyline love triangle involving Susan could start in episode 3.01.]
07/14 - Susan goes to a restaurant with a man whose wife is in a coma. Awkwardness ensues when the parents of the wife are also at the restaurant. A switcharoo happens between two coma patients.

Both of them clash instantly, having very little in common. Source: SpoilerFix.com
07/04 - The second episode will see the addition as a recurring of Austin, Edie Britt’s sexy and bad-boyish 18-year-old nephew. Source: SpoilerFix BuddyTV Spoilers Chat

Airdate: Fall 2006
09/11 - [Gaby and Carlos] have entered the War of the Roses phase of their relationship — living in the same house but doing everything they can to tick each other off. Gaby's latest strike: luring Carlos' old friend into the bedroom for a faux romp — which explains why a bathrobe-clad Longoria is shaking the bejesus out of a designer canopy bed, tossing her head back and giving it her all. As in "Yes, yes! Oh, Phil! Give it to me!" Thinking he's about to have real sex, Phil keeps trying to join Gaby in the sack. She fends him off ("Beat it, Phil. No means no!") while still pretending to get off ("Take me home, Philly! God, you should wear a saddle!"). Frustrated, Phil finally storms out, but an oblivious Gaby continues to bang the bedposts — that is, until Carlos sneaks into the room, taps her on the shoulder, and asks for her car keys. One of the Van De Kamps attempts suicide in a "darkly comic" way. Source: Entertainment Weekly

Sara, one of Julie’s friends, falls for Austin. Bree orders a crusty motel manager to open a room for her. A dysfunctional family meets a therapist. Danielle, Andrew, and Orson, also appear.

General Spoilers:
09/18 - Orson: The dreamy dentist becomes a full-time presence as Bree's husband and a man of mystery. "He believes he has found his soul mate," says MacLachlan. "Orson is a mass of contradictions -- he appears to be one thing and continually reveals himself to be more than that." Ian: While tending to his comatomse wife in the hospital, the English publisher finds and unlikely romance with Susan, who's been watching over another coma patient, Mike. "He's bumbling at times," says [Dougray] Scott. "He kind of blossoms after he rediscovers his romantic juices with Susan." Those still rooting for a Susan-Mike reunion, beware: "Ian certainly has aspirations for a long-term romantic relationship." Austin: [Edie's] 18-year-old bad-boy nephew moves in with her and pursues a romance with Susan's daughter, Julie -- much to Susan's horror. "He just stirs up trouble right from the get-go," says [Josh] Henderson. "He has this sarcasm about him that's light and fun. He's charming, funny, and he doesn't play like he is, but he's smart also." Source: Entertainment Weekly
09/11 - [Nora] is going to be living with [the Scavos], from what I hear. And the whole situation will be dipped in nuts. She drives Lynette so crazy, they actually try to hook her up with someone who is currently someone else’s man, someone who may have once mowed the lawn in an evening gown, and the whole situations backfires, badly. Source: Kristin on E!Online
09/11 - Cherry also notes that the mystery will organically bring the women together, as they'll all be concerned about Bree's creepy new husband. The man at the center of it all, MacLachlan, won't spill too much dirt, but he says Orson's secret is "of a psychological nature" and that "he's desperate to make this relationship with Bree work. Anything that tries to knock that apart becomes a threat." He won't have to worry about Mike, at least not right away: Mr. Delfino begins this season in a coma. When Mike finally does come to, "there's something a little off about him, which is going to be fun to play," says Denton. "And he's obviously not happy that this might not have been an accident. He's a little darker." And here's the cherry on top from Cherry: "There'll be a woman coming along to screw up Mike's mind and screw up Susan's happiness." In other Desperate traumas, Lynette will do battle with Nora (Kiersten Warren), the woman with whom Tom fathered a child before he met her. She'll also find herself tempted by an attractive new neighbor. Cherry does offer up one other piping-hot Scavo story line: Lynette quits her ad agency job to help Tom run a pizzeria — a story based on Cherry's father's buying a pizza joint and forcing his family to work there. Down the street, Edie digs her claws into a familiar face and tries to be a good aunt to her troublemaking teenage nephew/new roommate. "Edie definitely has very strong maternal instincts," says Sheridan. "You'll see a very protective side of her this season." And, of course, Gaby and Carlos talk divorce proceedings while proceeding to drive each other bonkers. "It's painfully tantalizing," assures Chavira. "There's a lot of tit for tat and tête-à -têtes."

09/07 - According to Eva Longoria, Marc Cherry knew Marcia Cross was trying to get pregnant and is planning to incorporate the pregnancy in the show. Source: MSNBC
09/01 - ABC is looking into how a rough cut of a sex scene from the new season of Desperate Housewives found its way onto YouTube a month before the episode is scheduled to air. According to Variety, the encounter in question finds Bree begging off a certain, um, "sexual favor" offered by new beau Orson (Kyle MacLachlan) — "I'm a Republican," she contests — but ultimately giving in (and then some) to the gesture. A source tells Variety the steamy scene is still expected to air, but perhaps with trims to what some feel might be too prolonged a climax for the Wisteria Lane redhead. Source: The Ausiello Report
08/30 - During an interview, James Denton revealed that Mike would be in a coma for two episodes and that the November Sweeps death would be a woman we know or will get to know and whom we'll be prominently featured in the first 5 episodes or so. Source: TV Guide

08/02 - Carlos and Gabrielle will divorce early on this season. Word on the street is that John will be back. Source: SpoilerFix BuddyTV Spoilers Chat
07/21 - Consulting producer Jeff Greenstein reveals: We spent a lot of time working out the arc of the mystery, and you're going to get a better, more compelling mystery. It's smack-dab in the center of the show. It involves Bree and the man that she has married, Orson, played by Kyle MacLachlan. And at the same time, the show is going to be funnier. [Andrew] will come back, and we learn what he was doing while he was away. We find out what he's been up to by the way Bree finds him. That happens early in the season. We're in the middle of working on the sixth episode, and we're not really doing that much with Lynette at the office. I think most of what you'll be seeing is Lynette's home life and how her life with Tom is threatened by the interloper Nora, and also the fact that she's got a new daughter to attend to in Kayla. Kayla's sort of an enigmatic figure, who becomes more and more interesting as the season moves on. Lynette's going to have some trouble integrating yet another kid into the family. Gabrielle's got a great story. When we pick up at the start of the season, Xiao-Mei is eight and a half months pregnant, so the roles have reversed. Xiao-Mei has been put on bed rest, and now Gabrielle has to wait on her, which is really funny. At the same time, she's going through an increasingly bitter and acrimonious divorce with Carlos. They're trying to hold together the chards of their relationship because they have a kid on the way. So these two trains are converging, and those things will crash into each other early in the season. Source: The Ausiello Report
07/15 - I got a tip that Scottish actor Dougray Scott — most recently the star of NBC's short-lived Heist — is joining the cast of Desperate Housewives this fall as a love interest for Teri Hatcher's Susan. Source: The Ausiello Report
07/13 - Kiersten Warren (the lady that Tom Scavo knocked up before he met Lynette) [...] told me that Desperate Housewives actually starts filming again today, and she'll definitely be around to drive the Scavo's insane for at least six or seven episodes. Source: Kristin on E!Online
07/01 - According to [Kevin] Murphy, [head writer,] early episodes will deal with the emerging relationship between Bree and Orson, which he calls "dark and exciting." The writers are also adding a new love interest for Susan, and turning the story between mutual adulterers Gabrielle and Carlos into a "War of the Roses"-style plot, he said. Source: Variety
07/01 - If Mike recovers from that hit and run (and I’m hearing he will), he’ll be happy to know that Karl won’t be standing in the way of him and Susan anymore. I’m told that Richard Burgi, who plays Teri Hatcher’s ex-hubbie, won’t be meddling much longer, because he’s leaving the show! Source: Kristin on E!Online
06/07/2006 - Susan's getting a new love interest next season. Casting will begin in the next week or two, and the role is for six to eight episodes. Source: Ask Ausiello @ TV Guide
05/20/2006 - "We're going to focus on domestic drama at home," Cherry says. "And I'm going to work much harder to criss-cross all the women's stories so that their lives bump up against each other." To help make that possible, Lynette will eventually end up back home, a change that makes Huffman happy. "I loved being at work, but maybe it was time to work my way out of the office," she says. "But I can't just go back to being a stay-at-home mom, because we've seen that done and after a while it's not that fun to watch." Although he's still formulating a Season 3 story line for Susan, Cherry says the character will be dealing with her daughter, Julie, growing up and beginning to date. And Andrea Bowen, who plays Julie, says she's more than ready. "It's time for something a little more spicy," she says. "Julie's just so good." As for romance, all Denton will say is, "I have a lot to do in the finale" — Mike and Susan "sure are cozy." But everyone is keeping mum about whether that might continue in Season 3. "I have no idea where Mike ends up," he says. There will be another big mystery in Season 3, but unlike the Applewhite story, Denton says, it "involves a number of people in the neighborhood that you already care about." One thing that won't change: Mary Alice as narrator. About 15 minutes of the season premiere will catch viewers up on the missing months: "A whole lot will have happened," Cherry says. "We come into their lives at breaking points." Source: USA Today
