Omg yes! I was a few seconds in to the interview and was so annoyed. She says her own name SO many time on that show - how do you not know that pronunciations!
This channel is pitiful for its mispronunciations. They must have watched quite a bit of the show to derive these insights, so how could they not know how to pronounce the name of one of the main characters? I know the narrator may not be the one who wrote this, but someone should have noted it in the script or something
I don't like how it's framed that motherhood was part of what made her a better person when she was literally FORCED into pregnancy when her husband tampered with her birth control. Also it just reinforces that a woman has to become a mother in order to grow as a person which just feels very devaluing for those who don't want children
She got pregnant and lost the baby , but realise she wanted a baby (the doctor told her she can’t have a child) , they tried surrogate but didn’t work out , after Carlos lost his vision so , she gave up having children , But they accidentally got married , So her two daughters aren’t actually because Carlos forced her
I don’t like how people love gaby even tho she was a predator. If Carlos slept with a 16 yr old male like she did y’all would never forgive him. It’s giving homophobia and double standards
@@Dolphinboidouble standards, yes. But I think you're reaching with homophobia because people would also be upset if Carlos slept with an underage female.
I like how even though she didn't want kids from the jump. She ended up becoming very invested in her kids, going out of her way to do whatever is in their best interests. And when she found out she her daughter Juanita was swapped from birth and she met her birth daughter, it really brought out a different side to her. It goes to show that for all her flaws, she wasn't as self centered as she believed herself to be.
Honestly I Loved her Arc, she showed over and over again that she isn't willing to sacrafise herselves just to please others but immediatly to protect Others.
@JordanMcDonald-s7x My House is Power by Solar for 8 Out of 12 months. My Family only uses one electric Car and Drive 50-60 KM per week by bicycle. We only buy used clothes. We only eat from Demeter farmer and buy locally and directly from Farming. We buy our Energy solely from Windpower. We produce only one trashbag of plastic every two week and we are 4 adults and two Kids. Our City is powered by 80% renewable Energy. Greetings from Germany
She was never actually in love with John, she was indeed in love with Carlos but there was an emotional detachment and she used John in order to fulfill that void. This is evident by the storyline in season 4 when she married Victor and starts the affair with Carlos. At the game night when Katherine mentions the John affair Victor said he didn't care and it wasn't a big deal and that showed her that she really did love Carlos because Carlos' reaction to the affair, in juxtaposition to Victor', proved Carlos was the man for her.
@@KrisBryant99 no, she never stopped loving Carlos. They only divorced the first time because of what you started but it was clear the love never went away, she even stated that when they ran into John at his restaurant and then Carlos had a business dinner there.
@stevennieves3327 oh you were referring to John when I misread for Carlos 😆 But yes she was always in love with Carlos and used John to fill whatever void she lacked.
Loved the video and would love to see Susan and Lynette analyzed as well - however small correction about Juanita believing she's "white rather than Latina". Latinos/latinas (not latinx, doesn't exist in Spanish and only english speaking folk use it) can be white, black, asian, etc. Latino is not a race and we usually simply refer to ourselves as latinos. That being said, she may have latin american ancestry but she herself is not latina, given that she was born and raised in the US and her parents did not teach her their ancestor's language or partake in their culture. I get that the US is more "strict" with how they view ancestry and enforce labels to divide americans into smaller communities within their society, but to claim to be from a country you know very little of, if not nothing at all, feels like mockery when we face very different struggles from a latino descendant in a first world country. This is all meant respectfully of course. Can't wait for the next upload ♥
@phantomconversations Thank you for your input! The Take is NEVER going to post a comment acknowledging and recognizing their mistake. It's very disappointing that they didn’t catch the comment that they made about Juanita at 4:20, which was very ignorant. I had to call it out, very harshly so, since they never correct themselves. I wonder how diverse their team is because there are many a time, that I just don't understand why their cultural ignorance is so very...blatant. I also posted a comment on how The Take, obviously, does not understand that being Latina/o is not about race it is more so about ancestry, meaning ethnicity. Anyone of any race or mixed race can be Latina/o. It reminds me of how people don't understand that being Hispanic has to do with language and nothing to do with race. Spaniards are Hispanic but not Latino, and Brazilians are Latinos but not Hispanic, whereas when it comes to Cubans, Venezuelans, Chileans,...etc. ; they are both Hispanic and Latinas/os.
that´s funny because only in the US and maybe Europe we from South America are called latinos, between us we still call ouselves "white" "black" "indigenous", etc.
@@ManuL.13 en términos simples visto desde afuera si, somos todos latinos, pero ya después en cada país varía bastante creo. Yo siendo argentina por lo menos no le doy mucha bola al tema raza y son pocos los que veo irl que lo hagan (ej afro-argentino, asiático-argetino y eso). Con toda la inmigración y mestizaje que hubo acá directamente uno es argentino y listo jajajaj
4:20 ---> OMGee, The Take...!!! Juanita is of Latina descent but that is not her race even though she's obviously not white. I'm a little taken aback by you, absolutely NOT understanding the difference between race and ethnicity! You can be white/Caucasian or black/African, Mestiza/o, Indigenous, and any other race, AND be of Latina/o descent, whether you're hispanic (Spanish-speaking) or non-hispanic.
Her family line was the happiest from them all. I love this show, how they represented femininity and power, definitely female scriptwriter was involved in production
“She’d prefer to protect her girls than be pampered” - ugh, the dreaded “prefer than,” that’s not a thing. You can say, “She’d prefer to protect her girls RATHER than be pampered” OR “She’d prefer to protect her girls OVER being pampered.” Stop trying to make “prefer than” happen, it doesn’t work.
So-less or did you mean to say "soul-less" ? I really hope it was a play on words and not an intentional mispronounciation of a name that was repeated many times on the show
Isn’t she an awful mother? She doesn’t like her children’s image, she ratted out Grace’s parents to ICE to get more time with her. Not to mention, she’s not very nice to her children.
I would say she's a realistic mother. The worst storylines showed her confronting her flaws and the fact that she still carried her worst "values" into motherhood. I think the idea was to show how she slowly "shed" most of her selfish/narcissistic traits. But some actions are just impossible to overlook. It's even worse because they used Juanita as Gaby's antagonist, to the point where their mother/daughter relationship was difficult to believe at times. Gaby was the child of a loveless mother (and that’s putting it nicely), and she didn’t want kids herself. So it makes sense that she has no idea what to do. She's trying to mother both Juanita and herself at the same time, flip-flopping between being over-indulgent and extremely harsh. She tries to be the mom she never had, then overcorrects by trying to be the mom she thinks her kids need, and it’s hard to get it right. Carlos can see it because he came from a loving, caring family, but she just doesn't have that experience. Being loved and cared for by a mother never happened to her. She's full of love, good intentions, and maladaptive behaviors.
She's not a bad mom. Gaby never had an example of how to be a mom, considering how her own treated her. Gaby learned everything from scratch, and naturally, she made mistakes.
I like and dislike her because I see myself a little,having to be my own cheerleader but the thing is I don't have a face to just pick any guy. I like this analysis
Gaby is a predator. If Carlos slept with an underage teenage boy like she did you’d hate him. You’re probably homophobic and you’re definitely a hypocrite
“She’d prefer to protect her girls than be pampered” - ugh, the dreaded “prefer than,” that’s not a thing. You can say, “She’d prefer to protect her girls RATHER than be pampered” OR “She’d prefer to protect her girls OVER being pampered.” Stop trying to make “prefer than” happen, it doesn’t work.
Interesting, I said all the things about Gabbys roots and the connection between poor and painful childhood = Latina, in a post on reddit and people were like “nah, she’s just a bitch.” I’m glad I’m not alone on this one. And I’m Latina and no, I don’t say those things about my people.
Hate how they changed her character when it came to kids. Susan is the worse especially when Katherine was in the hospital. I remember catching a glimpse of her laughing while Katherine literally had a breakdown.

I’m sorry but…it’s So-LEESE

I know the narrator may not be the one who wrote this, but someone should have noted it in the script or something
Unless they’re informing their own content from other videos, but even then, most UA-camrs pronounce her name right!
This channel is notorious for butchering very simple “ethnic” names.

Gaby is truly one of a kind and Eva Longoria played her to perfection. She’s my favourite!
Gaby is a predator that groomed an underage teen. If Carlos did that you homophobes would hate him.
The take did my two favorite characters : Bree and Gaby
Vous parlez français? J'ai cherché dans votre playlist 'relation' et trouvé plusieurs vidéos en français
Great series! We want all the Desperate Housewives analysed! ❤
Medusone did a MASSIVE deep dive (3, maybe 4 hours!)
I need more @@teebeeeeeeeee
Seconded!
@@kikiiza3379 right?! What a ride!
@JordanMcDonald-s7x talk at your mom
It's not 'Wanita' but Juanita.
The 'J' in Spanish is pronounced like an English 'H' in the word Hulk
Carlos had such a great arc
It's pronounced "So-Lease", not "soulless"
I am enjoying these Desperate housewives videos. Keep them coming! I wanna see Lynette and Edie next.
5 seconds in and youre already messing up main character name pronunciations, some basic research wouldn't go amiss ...

It happens in real life too. You don't really know how maternal/paternal u will be unless u actually have kids. Some people will surprise u.😂😂

She WAS in love in Carlos but always wanted an identity of her own so I think she resented Carlos for that to where she started acting out.
@@KrisBryant99 no, she never stopped loving Carlos. They only divorced the first time because of what you started but it was clear the love never went away, she even stated that when they ran into John at his restaurant and then Carlos had a business dinner there.

Hated Gaby for her affair with a teenager. But she was a good comic relief and a unapologetic character
i thought he was in college 😮
What are you taking about? Dude was at least 25

They are talking about an episode on the show from the 2000s… literally what happened in the episode was Juanita didn’t know she was Latina
never understood how gaby was a runway model - she's too short! eva longoria is only 5'2". the average runway model is between 5'9″ and 6'0.
Her family line was the happiest from them all. I love this show, how they represented femininity and power, definitely female scriptwriter was involved in production
My favourite line from her? “Your father’s side of the family is trash. Any questions?”
OMG IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS EPISODE FOR YEARS
“She’d prefer to protect her girls than be pampered” - ugh, the dreaded “prefer than,” that’s not a thing. You can say, “She’d prefer to protect her girls RATHER than be pampered” OR “She’d prefer to protect her girls OVER being pampered.” Stop trying to make “prefer than” happen, it doesn’t work.
You guys are always spot on as usual! 😄👏👏👏

Ooh are we doing a whole seires on each Desperate Housewives character?? We want it!
I like and dislike her because I see myself a little,having to be my own cheerleader but the thing is I don't have a face to just pick any guy. I like this analysis
Whenever i think of Eva, i remember her pushing that lawnmower in heels 😅
Love Gaby!! Idc what people say! She iconic ❤
@JordanMcDonald-s7x No. The real issue is Billionaires who waste their CEO positions.
Gaby is a predator. If Carlos slept with an underage teenage boy like she did you’d hate him. You’re probably homophobic and you’re definitely a hypocrite
My favourite one, I can relate to her story so much
You should have also mentioned the Grace storyline ❤️
the best tv show ever
I miss this show so much.
Eva played Gabby so well that I didn't even care that she was a catwalk model who's short xD
IVE NEVER CLICKED SO FAST
“She’d prefer to protect her girls than be pampered” - ugh, the dreaded “prefer than,” that’s not a thing. You can say, “She’d prefer to protect her girls RATHER than be pampered” OR “She’d prefer to protect her girls OVER being pampered.” Stop trying to make “prefer than” happen, it doesn’t work.

I’m glad I’m not alone on this one.
And I’m Latina and no, I don’t say those things about my people.
its not rag to riches its exposing somewhat like mr deeds movie but much more sinister and evil fam
Can you do character analysis of victoria from himym and Edie Britt from desperate housewives?
@JordanMcDonald-s7x ??
So many iconic quotes!
Wow,just wow shows how money isn't everything
my favourite character on DH
I need more eat the rich stories. Yeah, that would be great.
4:25 You can be white and Latina. Hispanic is an ethnic category, not a racial one.
One of the best characters to be portrayed on tv. She became the mom she needed growing up.
Gaby had a good arc.
I love gabe and carols they love each other
Souless ??? 😂
perfect timing, because i've just finished watching the show. and my fave yt channel has videos about the show
There are many terrible TV-husbands, but Carlos Solis will always be one of the worst in my book.
Hate how they changed her character when it came to kids. Susan is the worse especially when Katherine was in the hospital. I remember catching a glimpse of her laughing while Katherine literally had a breakdown.
I think she's everyone's fan
This makes me wamt to watch the show!
Soul - less 😂
♥️ her
Thank you for this video! Cannot wait for you to do the rest of the girls!
💜💜💜
Ok. Fine. I'll rewatch Desperate Housewives 🫢
