studio at the moment, so Fraser's stepping up to ask
a random question, which you got.

Speaker 3 (00:39):
Would you rather have a laugh that sounds like a
siren or cry like a cartoon character.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
I'd rather cry like a cartoon character because I don't
cry often, not trying true a tough guy or any
thirteen years I've say you cry twice. I'm just a
happy guy. I don't cry that often, but I do
laugh a lot, and if I laugh like a siren
that would.

Speaker 3 (00:57):
Be But what what if you laugh so hard you
start crying?

Speaker 2 (01:01):
Ooh, that's that's I'm conflicted. Now do both take effect?
I would imagine they kind of they balance, they bounce
each other out, and we split the difference. That's okay.

new Desperately Devoted podcast. Terry Hatcher, Andrea Bowen, and Emerson
Tenney back to get the scoop on the new podcast
in more when they join us next. It's up Birl
Mario Lopez joining me right now, the host of the
new podcast Desperately Devoted Terry Hatcher, Andrea Bowen and Emerson Tenny.

(04:04):
How are you, ladies? We're great, Thank you for taking
the time. So in the new podcast, you're going to
be rewatching Desperate Housewives, the iconic show. But the twist here, Terry,
you have your real life daughter Emerson as a host
and your TV daughter from the series, Andrea as the
other hosts. That's a fun dynamic. Gosh, isn't that great.

Speaker 5 (04:25):
I'm surrounded by brilliant women. Andrea actually kind of brought
the idea to me, maybe with thinking that her and
I would do it together. And then I was the
one that said, like, wouldn't it be amazing? Since Emerson
is a writer, she's not an actor, and she's also
never seen it before and so she's you know, twenty seven.

(04:47):
We've got that generation. We have Andrew who's thirty five
and me, who's eighty please, and so we have all
these different points of view of this iconic show. And
plus we love each other, so we're really excited.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
That's so much fun and it's so cool. I can't believe, though, Emerson,
it is funny because I feel really old. I remember
when you were a little little girl. It's crazy all
grown up now. Time goes by so quick. I can't
believe it's the first time you're got to watch this series.
Was that a deliberate move on your part?

Speaker 1 (05:17):
Well?

Speaker 6 (05:18):
You know, I think I was way too young to
watch it when it first came out. I mean I
was seven when the pilot aired.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
Why I remember you?

Speaker 6 (05:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (05:26):
And then and then you know.

Speaker 6 (05:28):
There wasn't streaming for a while. I feel like it
was really during COVID in twenty twenty when a lot
of my friends from college. I think it was when
Despert Housewives first came out, either on Netflix or maybe
it was Hulu, and I had all these friends from
college who you know, had not really grown up necessarily
watching the show reaching out to me, going, wait, is
this your mom?

Speaker 2 (05:46):
Is your mom?

Speaker 6 (05:47):
Susan your mom who came to parents' weekend when we
were in college, and so when this opportunity presented itself,
it was such an easy yes because I am a screenwriter.
It is such an iconic piece of television. Not to
mention that my mom is amazing and it's so fun
to get to celebrate her and watch her achievements in
that show. And yeah, it's it's been a blast. I

(06:08):
mean we're only into well I'm only into the first
first season a little ways, but I'm loving it.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
I know your mom is fantastic in it. All right,
more with the Ladies coming up right after a quick break.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
More Fun on the Way On with Mario.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
Lopez A Maria Lopez got the Three Ladies of Desperately
Devoted on Zoom with me, Terry Hatcher, Andrew Bowen and
Emerson Tenny. What are your thoughts Terry and looking back
and rewatching it now?

Speaker 5 (06:33):
And well I also like Andrea, I think both of
us obviously we've seen it before, but not.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
In over decade.

Speaker 5 (06:41):
Yeah, sure, And I have to say I was so
I don't even know the I mean, shock and awe
really went. I just just the pilot, just the first
two minutes of the pilot, before any of the main
actors even enter the scene. Really just the street itself
and the whole like kind of Mary Alice set up

(07:03):
when she does what she does.

Speaker 6 (07:05):
I mean, you can't watched.

Speaker 5 (07:08):
I was going to say, you have spoiler If you
have spoiler alerts on a show that's twenty one years.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
Old, you're good. You're good. But I really felt like it.

Speaker 5 (07:19):
The jumping off point was with Steria. Lane is a
big star and the writing is so amazing, and every
single actor in it is just I just I can't
get over it. It's like watching a show that I
wasn't in. Like I so it really is holding up
at least so far, and uh, I'm we're really enjoying it,

(07:41):
and you know, hindsight, it just it just it's just joy.
I mean, these guys every every episode when we do
when we do our podcast, we talk about our individual
highlights and sometimes we'll say, like, what line jumped out
at us, what line of dialogue jumped out at us
the most? And for me, it's just it's to the point, now,
let's stop talking about this line.

Speaker 6 (08:02):
Yeah all, yeah, it is true.

Speaker 5 (08:04):
I won't say the line because I've been saying, but
everything I pick it's Marcia. I just keep going back to, like,
three is so amazing. I just, I mean, everyone's amazing,
but I think that character and Marsha's performance of it
is I don't know, it's just it's just genius.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
All right, ladies, Hank Tight, We're gonna play some more
music and talk some more talking to the ladies of
the new Desperately Devoted podcast Harry Hatcher, Andrew Bowen, and Emerson. Tenny,
you're on with Mario Lopez, and please get back to
what you were saying.

Speaker 7 (08:35):
I mean, we talk about this because we mentioned, as
Emerson said, we've only we're only at the kind of
beginning of the first season, but so quickly watching the
first few episodes.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
You know, you're just so committed to this world.

Speaker 7 (08:47):
You're just you're you're fascinated by these people and their
friendships and what they're hiding, and it's it's fantastic television.
And I think that there's there's a lane for rewatch
podcasts happening, but I imagine not everybody gets to rewatch
their show with you know, so much pride and so
much entertainment values still to reap from today.

Speaker 2 (09:09):
And I watch.

Speaker 7 (09:10):
It as now a fan like, I am very much
a fan of Desperate Housewives and that feels really cool.
Twenty one years after it premiered.

Speaker 2 (09:19):
Amara Lopez catching up with the ladies from the Desperately
Devoted podcast, And what I find fascinating is Desperate Housewives
was such a phenomenon. It initially spawned the Real Housewives
franchise in Brava, which now just dominates the whole network.
And I don't know how many franchises are. It's bizarre
to see how far that's come. But essentially springboarding from

(09:41):
your show.

Speaker 5 (09:42):
No, it really did, you know. I did a little
research into this, and the word housewife itself kind of
fell out of favor, like all the way back in
the seventies when you had the liberation of women and
the free you know, freedom and the bra burning, and
in a way, that idea of that sort of re
character of the perfect housewife didn't really exist until Mark

(10:05):
Cherry brought this show back, and the word housewives.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
He really, you know, created.

Speaker 5 (10:13):
That a resurgent had that idea, and you're right, Bravo
took off with it. I used to say back in
the day that Mark Cherry deserved some small percentage of
all of that, which I don't think he ever got
but he should have.

Speaker 7 (10:26):
But I mean it's true, And as a as a
Bravo Real Housewives fan, I think about it every time
because they're openings, they're holding the orange, or they're holding
this or that that for their various cities that they're in,
and it's just so obvious what the source material is.

Speaker 5 (10:41):
But also can I just say that does kind of
bring us back to like one of the things we're
doing is we are analyzing and rewatching the show, but
we're also using it as a springboard to talk about
modern day culture and certainly as issues apply to women,
which is what's happening on.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
The Real Housewives too, you know.

Speaker 5 (10:59):
So we have that aspect of bringing all of our
different lives into our podcast and hopefully those things will
be people think, people that things, people want to hear
inspired by.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
Yeah, so much fun. All right, hay tight, We're gonna
play some more music and come back and wrap it
up with the ladies from the Desperately Devoted Podcast.

Speaker 1 (11:18):
You're the full interview now at on with Mario dot Com.
More Mario Lopez on the way.

Speaker 2 (11:24):
Wrapping up with the ladies from the Desperately Devoted podcast
Terry Hatcher, Andrea Bowen, and Emerson Tinney and Andrew I
saw by the way you announced on social that you're expecting. Yeah, congratulated.

Speaker 7 (11:36):
Was my first baby and we're so excited.

Speaker 2 (11:39):
Oh that's fantastic. When when's the baby?

Speaker 8 (11:41):
Do?

Speaker 2 (11:41):
Thank you?

Speaker 7 (11:42):
Yeah, I'm having a little girl and we're due later
this year, so.

Speaker 2 (11:46):
All right, too much longer.

Speaker 7 (11:48):
Yeah, but that's another thing that is so cool. That
was an unexpected kind of turn of events in a
way that I get to do this with my on
screen mom and her daughter, and you know, I get
to sit here well getting ready to become a mom
to my daughter, and it's it's just perfect timing to
revisit the show and revisit our memories of it together,

(12:10):
and it's just I feel so grateful to be getting
to do this.

Speaker 6 (12:13):
With both of you.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
That's great. Well, congratulations and congratulations saw you ladies. Everyone,

not my favorite pasta because there's so many pasta's. It's
it's it's where is it rank? Give me the number.
I guess. I guess it's in the top ten. I
guess it's in the top Take a number. I prefer
like a penny, like a shell. Linguinis is thick like
a parpa.

Speaker 3 (13:20):

the ages.

Speaker 3 (13:43):
Someone we had on earlier this year, sadly after our
house burned down in the La fires. Heidi Montag Heidi
is thirty eight thirty seven.

Speaker 2 (13:52):
Oh, okay almost. I don't know why we still call
him this, But Prince Harry the Gentleman formally known as
a Prince Yes, the Ginger, formerly known as Prince Harry.
You can't give up your titles and then still keep it.
That isn't right. But I know what you're talking about.
I think Prince Harry is forty forty. He's sitting the
fourth level forty one, oh forty one. Someone who wants

(14:13):
to spar against you in jiu jitsu. Tom Hardy, one
of my favorite actors. Love that. He's a jiu jitsu an.
Incredible in Mobland. He's great in Mobland. I think we're
around the same. I'm gonna say he is fifty one
forty eight? Is he forty eight forty eight?

called to an elementary school in Connecticut the other day
for a report of a forty year old man stuck
in a tube slide on the playground. So it's on
a Saturday. So it turns out there was just some
dad out there with his kids. He was hitting the

(19:12):
slides and he had there were getting stuck. They had
cut the slide open to frall. They didn't try loom
of any sort. Yeah, put some baby oil down here,
it will slide down. Authorities gave the man oxygen. Said
he was extremely uncomfortable. He was stuck in there for
about ninety minutes, which must have felt like an eternity.
Oh yeah, it must have been really hot out and

(19:34):
his skin was dry and he just hit a certain
angle that must have been miserable. Poor guy. Man's got
to know his limitations, more Mario Lopez coming up. That's it.
