Online reviewers have weighed in on the latest Desperate Housewives.

Here's what they had to say about "Everybody Says Don't":

  • Annie Barrett stepping in for Michael Slezak at EW.com, said temptation was this week's theme.

    Almost everyone succumbed to temptation: Bree couldn't help pursuing a romance with Sex Addicts Anonymous member Peter; Gaby couldn't help stealing a baby; Edie, finally given enough airtime, couldn't help stealing the show; and Felicia Tillman couldn't help ruining the mood of a perfectly typical engagement party by calling out the cold-blooded killer in the corner. With all of that succumbing to temptation, though, came some welcome manipulative plot twists. I might just be paranoid, but I really think Stripper and her 'boyfriend,' Frank, are only pretending to be dimwitted and have been scheming this whole time.

    You can read her full analysis over at EW.com.

  • But Dave Anderson at TV Guide Online was full of praise for Lynette. "How great that Lynette went to bat for her friend Bree, lying under oath because she knew Andrew was an even bigger liar. Best line was Lynette's, after Andrew's lawyer asked her, 'Do I need to remind you about the potential consequences of perjury?' 'No, you don't. In fact, I hate liars,' she replied as she turned and glared at Andrew. Felicity Huffman just keeps showcasing exactly why she got all those acting nominations and awards."

  • Keith McDuffee at TV Squad said the show seemed to lack some important characters. "There was something odd about tonight's episode. Did you notice a complete lack of several key people? Tom Scavo? Any of the Applewhites? I realize there are contracts to stay in line with, but it just seemed completely odd not to see these people at the engagement party."

  • There is also brief recap at Television Without Pity, where visitors have so far rated the episode B+ in a poll.
