The magic of streaming makes classic shows new, and that's seemingly been the case for Desperate Housewives, which is available for those with a Hulu subscription. When I started my re-watch of the show, I was surprised by how well it aged, as well as the hilarious performances by actors like Eva Longoria. But now that I've gotten to Season 5, I'm remembering why I dropped off the show during its original run on ABC.
Desperate Housewives was a huge hit during its eight seasons on the air, and inspired Bravo's Real Housewives of Orange County (streaming with a Peacock subscription). Some folks are hoping for a reboot, but it remains to be seen if that ever happens. Although I have to admit that Season 5 of the show is way less enjoyable than its predecessors (so far, at least).
