Mrs. Ford: "How shall I be revenged on him? I think the best way ewere to entertain him with hoope till the widcked fire of lust have melted in his own grease. Did you ever hear the like?" Merry Wives of Windsor, Act II, Scene i)

Here is the point where you just have to laugh to yourself thinking of these two women plotting revenge. It is not like Hamlet where he plots revenge against his uncle in order to gain back power, but comical trickery that is unusual in Shakespeare's famous writings. This play so far reminds me of Desperate Housewives and the women's plots and schemes. The tv show deals with risky schemes and consequences with a satirical angle to it that is hilarious. Mrs. Page and Mrs. Ford are on their way to plot their revenge and lead him on but nothing too scandalous of course to ruin their reputation. These sneaky sneaky wives of Windsor may as well live on Wisteria Lane.....
