Nice to see her back on TV so soon after Ugly Betty. I think she'll make a great addition to the cast.

I was thinking about giving up on HOUSEWIVES, since the show became too mystery and crime oriented for my taste, but now with stunning Vanessa in the cast, I think I'll watch the final season as well.

this show is my guilty pleasure....I'm glad she's going to be involved...hopefully the serial killer thread she will no doubt bring to the show to fill the vacancy will be good. Angie was one of the better maniac/mystery story lines in a while, its too bad she had to go
