My "TOP TV PICK for today is: Desperate Housewives


Desperate Housewives starts it's fifth season with a five year leap into the future.

When the 4th season's last show came to a close in May, we saw Gabrielle (Eva Longoria Parker) in frumpier attire as a mom with two bratty children running around her house; Brie (Marcia Cross) hired her son Andrew (Shawn Pyfrom) as her assistant for her home-based catering business; Edie (Nicolette Sheridan) moved away from Wisteria Lane as she was disowned by her "friendly" neighbors; Lynette (Felicity Huffman) with dealing with her uncontrollable children who had grown up to become hoodlum teens; and Susan (Teri Hatcher)revealed her newest lover boy, played by Gale Howard. But who knows what happened to Mike (James Denton)?

Here are a few SPOILERS of what lies ahead with this "dramedy". If you do not want to spoil your appetite for some exciting story lines, I suggest you stop reading this posting right now.

  • A main housewife is horrified to learn that one of her kids has developed romantic feelings for her.
  • Mike, Susan and Jackson (aka Susan's new boyfriend) engage in a kinky threesome.
  • A fatal accident in the season premiere causes huge repercussions for several characters.
  • Gail O'Grady (NYPD Blue) is joining the cast of Desperate Housewives as the cul-de-sac's newest troublemaker.
  • Carlos (Ricardo Antonio Chavira) is now a masseur and sees clients in his home.
  • Danielle (Joy Lauren) and Leo Katz, the new man in her life, have custody of Benjamin. They bring the kid to see Bree. Danielle is afraid that Bree and Orson may try to steal Ben back.
  • Lily Tomlin joins the cast in the recurring role of Mrs. McCluskey's sister.
  • Wisteria Lane's resident gays, Bob and Lee, will be back for year five and we'll soon learn a lot more about the good-looking couple. Seems Bob has got some serious issues -- like, seek professional help sort of issues -- and it will all come out this season.

There's plenty of secrets and mysteries waiting to happen on Wisteria Lane, and I promise to be glued to my TV to stay on top of my favorite dramedy of all times.
