I liked this article because the writer informs you of the creation of Desperate Housewives and gives examples of how the women can be dramatic and funny without falling into the stereotypical definition of housewife.

I found this website very interesting because it compares the four female main characters of both Sex and the City and Desperate Housewives. I was debating on which show to choose as my blog focus so this short analysis of the similarities between the women was eye opening. I never thought to view the four women of Sex and the City as a younger version of the four women of Desperate Housewives.
