Desperate Housewives:

I'd wondered when Tom's stay at home dad thing would start to effect him. "Emasculated"? Wasn't he the one who told Lynnette that he didn't want to work anymore?

that is exactly the same thing I said - I was like umm dude weren't you the one who said you wanted to stay home . . make up your mind! if anything was less than masculine was him acting like a big baby about taking care of the kids when they had chicken pox . . .

What did Lanette say she needed from Tom after she told him he had the job?

To forgive her (for something that happened when they worked at an ad firm together before she became a stay-at-home mom)

Acutally, the forgivness was for Lynette interfering with Tom's promotion from last season. She talked to his boss' wife who talked to her husband and he took the promotion from Tom and ( I think) he gave it to Tom's ex-girlfriend. When he found out that Lynnette was behind it, he decided to be Mr. Mom.

My bets are still on Gabby....but I am a surprised a smidgen she wants to be a mommy now..

The Applewhites: Betty is straight gangsta...she smacked the taste out of her son's mouth (like a Black Momma would). I am just mad she got the drop on Bree so now she can bogard her way into the poker game. Caleb is gonna try to do something to Bree's daughter at some point. (Is it me or are her sons really 'old' looking teenagers?)

Edie: good move!

Lynnette: proud of you for truly apologizing to Tom..now who is gonna take care of those heathenistic kids of yours?


Bree:..."Is that a black man under your bed?"
Reach in your bag of tricks and pull something out..and have a chat with your daughter for spilling the family secrets...ur kids will be the death of you.

Susan: you make me wanna puke!

Betty Applewhite is OG!!! lol I think Kaleb is going to do something to Danielle.

Go on, Gabby for hitting the nun! I wasn't too surprised that she does want a baby. I understood where she was coming from when she was arguing with Carlos re: making a promise.

[Jill1228]

I will give my OG votes to Betty and the Nun. Gabby gets and honorable mention!

Now with Tom and Lynette...who is gonna take care of Bay-bay's kids?

Though the actors who play the Applewhites were absent from last week’s ‘Golden Globe Awards’ celebration when ‘Desperate Housewives’ won for Best Television Series - Musical or Comedy, ‘Housewives’ hunk Mehcad Brooks says that he anticipates that he, Alfre Woodard and new costar Nashawn Kearse—he replaced the terminated Page Kennedy—will be fixtures on Wisteria Lane for quite some time.

“Alfre loves the show, and I love the show. We would like to stick around for a long time. I certainly hope so. At least while we’re needed and necessary to progress the story. I think we fit in pretty well. The last couple of episodes we shot have been all about us and we’re really happy about that,” Brooks shared, during our interview at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza in Los Angeles.

While the Applewhites seem alienated from the other neighbors on the block now, Brooks disclosed that was definitely intentional. “Only because we’ve kept to ourselves,” he explained. “But there’s some really interesting issues coming up for Wisteria Lane, that I didn’t expect myself; social issues that are going to come up that I am very proud that Marc Cherry and the producers have actually taken the bull by the horns and are writing [about].”

Any secrets Brooks can divulge? “I can tell you one thing. It’s that I can’t tell you anything,” he teased.

The actor also stars in the Disney film ‘Glory Road,’ a true story about the underdog Texas Western basketball team and its first all African-American starting lineup of players and how they ultimately won the 1966 NCAA tournament title. Brooks believes he can relate to the film because he was a victim of racism in 2004 when he and his brother William were arrested on New Year’s Day for allegedly being belligerent to police. Officers in his hometown of Austin, Texas claimed Brooks resisted arrest, and he was taken to jail and released on $1,500 bond. His stepfather, attorney Gary Bledsoe, who also runs the state chapter of the NAACP, defended his sons in court.

“The case was basically thrown out of court. It was all some bull anyway,” the actor told me. According to published reports, Austin police and the city's black residents have had a long history of trouble.
