Once in a while I will re-watch DH and I've just finished watching Season 5. Eddie's death did make me feel sick about the story writer since her death is too dramatic and in the favor of her revenging husband. However, I must give credits to the story writers at the same time since they try to give us the true color of Eddie by telling the stories between her and the other housewives. It's the stories about how Eddie cheered up the 'cancer bitch' Lynette, and how she taught Bree a lesson on how to respect others especially one's own husband, and how she discovered Karl's adultery with his secretary and revealed it to the 'kept-in-the-dark' Susan, and how she predicted herself to die in her youth, or how she revealed her little secret to Mrs. McCluskey about herself loving her son(Travers) enough to let him hate her (for giving up the custody of the Son to the Father). I think Eddie may not be the "good person" in the society's prototype, but deep down, she's really a "Sexy", "Perceptive", "Strong", "Beautiful", and "One of a kind" person as the other housewives complimented her before Eddie's ashes being spread on Wisteria Lane.
