Desperate Housewives censored (no wonder so short)

And yes they deserve some credit for censoring Desperate Housewives without me realising so. So silent and stealthy, the censor’s scissors…

Apparently, a significant part of last Monday’s episode was actually sheared off...

I have to admit I only caught two cuts (the Gabrielle seduction scene and the pool scene). Not that I knew WHAT was cut, mind you, just that Something Was Missing. When I complained to MrsMachine she said 'what cut?' then I asked her about susan storming into Zack's house and then... nothing. She tought about it a moment and said 'oh yeah, haw?'

While the censors were quite stealthy about it, I still think Singaporeans suffer in the long run (or rather those who wish to fully experience or especially CREATE art, theatre, cinema. When all your life you're used to plot points never getting resolved, how can you be expected to create or appreciate intricate plots?

*steps off soapbox*

Oh god.. i miss the show on Monday cos i was too tired from work.. and boy, am i glad i went to sleep instead..

i really think they shld stop censoring this desperate housewives show.. pls lah keep it original. censor so much until life also become fake.. really i don see any prob wif tis show.. i think we shld start bein mature and understand some facts which we are still tryin to hide from. .. im like so feelin that i rather not waste my time watchin this show because its not worth it as it is not in its entireity..but on the hold this is a good eye opener show
