Someone said earlier about the show's continuity problems. That is the biggest problem, the writers do not develop any stories, so everything seems pointless. Like Mike's kid coming back, rich, and after Gabby...
I have to agree about the Mrs. McClusky plotline. It should have lasted more than two episodes. They seemed to start a few stories this season then end them rather quickly. I was really interested in what they were planning to do with (I forget his name...) the child porn guy, but he only lasted a few episodes. He threatened Lynette so maybe they'll bring him back, who knows.
I doubt they'll bring him back. What happened seems like a big mess in the writer's room as well as some network intervention.
The main problem with the show, IMO, is that they started with a very interesting premise that was solved by the end of season 1 and they could never get audiences as interested in anything they came up with after that.
