Summary: This article comments on the season premiere of the show “Desperate Housewives.” After five-year jump in the season finale, it allows the writers to move each character forward and offer audience new mysteries and flashbacks to chew on.



At the top of the article, the blogger posts a photo of Desperate Housewives to let the readers who are interested in this article have motivation to click in. The writing style in this article is formal but the blogger seems to try to get closer to the readers by using slang, such as “what the hell” (in first paragraph). In the article, the blogger gives the readers outline for this season premiere and then share his personal opinion. He also sorts the mysteries in the shows for the readers to let us know which part should focus on. Besides, he comments on some of the actors and actresses in the show. In the end, he asks the reader’s opinions and encourages readers to write down their own comments.

Some reader’s writing style is informal. They use incorrect grammar, such as “too tired to get into it, just wanted to say…”(comment 2). Some readers will quote the blogger’s comment and discuss it. Comment 3 is the example.
