Tom was all about the bespeckled Donald because his version of Voodoo Child was like Hendrix had risen.
(On a side note, I have to say that Im rather enjoying Toms enthusiasm lately.
Isnt he the most excitable middle-aged guy youve ever seen?
Why dont we all run out and buy a sports car and then start a band?
Oh yeah, it comes with that whole giving-up-on-life feeling.
You know what they say: Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
Maybe one of the band members is his enemy.
If you dont like spoilers at all, just skip this paragraph.
The ladies and their husbands were at the club to see Toms band perform.
Maybe Dave started the fire in an attempt to kill someone or multiple people?
Possibly his future band mate, Mike Delfino?
Well, I guess at this point, well have to wait to find out as the story unfolds.
They do share the same last name.
Its a long shot, but its possible.
Okay, so thats enough Dave Williams talk for this post.
NEXT: Truth in advertising
Now, on to that little fiasco of a story line.
But I absolutely loved Jacksons explanation for why he just couldnt resist helping the little tyke: I couldnt!
I turn to mush when I hear words like pweeeese.
But the whole idea of Susan forcing M.J. to fall off his bike was justsoSusan, wasnt it?
That felt real and true.
I forgot how long it has been since Lynette was a high-powered advertising executive.
At first I thought, oh, that wasnt so long ago!
And I honestly felt for Lynette, who missed her career and just wanted to make a splash again.
You know what this tastes like?
she questioned a waiter while pointing at her empty martini glass.
Somehow the joy of co-owning the pizzeria doesnt even enter the equation.
So my only question for Lynette is: Why not just get back into the game?
At the time it hurt the family and she chose to stay home but her kids are older now.
She should get her old job back!
Or wouldnt it be fun if she went to work for her old assistant Stu?
Thatd undoubtedly generate some laughs.
Maybe thats partly why that story line existed last night to set up Lynettes return to the working world.
I surely hope so.
The rest of the ladies on the street Susan and Gaby didnt seem too happy with her either.
And she certainly made up with Lynette, who offered her love and support through her marital strain.
But what about Katherine?
Where was her apology or gold-embroidered chefs hat?
Ive been really disappointed with Katherines story line in general this season.
It was a smart move to keep her character around, but why not use her a bit?
Otherwise it seems like a waste.
The couple that has been getting decent but rather self-contained story lines is Gaby and Carlos.
(Personally, I liked Gabys original explanation about what they were doing: No, that wasnt real.
Sometimes I fake it when I wrestle with daddy.)
The chubby little girl promptly told her new play-date friend, Bethany, who started screaming sperm!
like she actually knew what those words mean.
And sadly for Bethany thanks to Carloss big mouth and blind eyes so was her belief in Santa Claus.
But my one complaint is that theyre not involved with much Wisteria Lane activities or other families.
Maybe thats the goal of the producers.
Hmm, I suppose its possible.
But what do you think, my TV Watching friends?
Are Gaby and Carlos too separated from the rest of Wisteria Lane?
Can Bree repair all the relationships shes so damaged?
Is Lynette poised for a career comeback?
Why does Carlos sit on the couch and watch TV with Gaby when he obviously cant see it?
Will the just like riding a bike adage prove true for Mike and Susan?
Does his move back to the lane mean theyll find their way back to each other?
