I love Dana Delany. Sure, I really don’t care for her character on the show, but I DO love that she can’t keep from spilling secrets. I’m pretty sure that she wasn’t supposed to share with E! News that both Jackson and Mike are going to propose to their respective women. Wait that’s Jackson proposing to Susan, and Katherine to Mike, in case there was any confusion (which wouldn’t be that surprising if there was, considering the histories.)

Yes, that’s right. I said Katherine proposing to Mike. She kind of alluded to the fact that Mike might not be doing the asking to Kristin Dos Santos from E! during the GLAAD Media Awards.

“Actually, the proposal is very Mike-like. That’s all I’ll say. Before you get too excited, consider this: Just because there are two proposals doesn’t necessarily mean there will be two answers of ‘yes’ to those proposals, or two weddings,” Dana said to Kristin.

I’m thinking Mike will say yes, Susan will say no?

Read last week’s winners and losers

It’s time for our weekly game of winners and losers! Please remember these are up to you, too, so if you see someone you think should be a winner/loser in Sunday’s episode, e-mail or comment it to me!

Onward to the winners and losers of the ‘wives game!

WINNERS

1. Lynette: The woman done outdone her mother AND the Matt-Damon-lookin’ kid with a single “Oh, looky, I’m going to pretend I DIED” move. I had a tiny amount of pity (itty bitty pity, if you will) for her mom at the end, but not enough to say Lynette’s move was dastardly. It was anything but dastard, in fact. Man, Lynette, you’re awesome. You manage to win in every episode, even when I’m looking forward to something else. For that, you, good lady, are a winner! (Suggested by Jamie!)

2. Edie: I’ve had a deep internal debate about whether Edie should be on the winner list. So deep, in fact, that I channeled the woman and began talking like her and making snarky comments to coworkers, friends and random people on the street (which did NOT go something like this, “Suuussan. Your mother’s in here with us.” Exorcist? Anyone? Anyone? No? Moving on…). Despite Edie’s obvious failure in being as strong and independent as I had originally pegged — when she went back to Dave at the end — she’s a winner. She put Susan in her place, and someone desperately, desperately needed to put that desperate woman on Desperate Housewives in her desperate place. That, for the time being, wins over male-go-backery. (Thanks to Holly for that one. Sorry, Jamie…disagreement number 2!)

3. Bree: When hasn’t Bree been a winner in this season? The red-headed fox managed to give us a great fight and a make-up with Alex, the future-son-in-law, and all in one episode. So the viewers are left with the satisfaction of watching a great spat, but with all the resolution of happy ending. And yes, the bit with Orson and Bree in the sackarooni alone is worth a winner mention. (Thanks to Holly AND Jamie for that one!)

Good news, kids!!!

When Gale Harold, who plays Jackson on Desperate Housewives, was hurt in a motocycle accident on Oct. 14., I was panicky.

And since then, relatively little news has come out about his progress, making me even more panicky. Until now!

Gale was seen at the Kirk Douglas Theatre near L.A., to see “The Little Dog Laughed.” According to Bay Windows, Gale will “be returning to Desperate Housewives after the holiday break.”

This can only mean one thing: More drama in the soon-to-be-love-square of Susan, Jackson, Mike and Katherine!

…to which I can only say one thing: Yay!

Wow, we’re going to get to see the whole show before it even airs! Here are two more fairly long sneak peeks of Sunday’s episode 4×15 “Mother Said”. I love this one with Mike’s mother. I hadn’t seen the part yet where she gives her a big ‘ol hug. Hilarious! Susan looks a tad bit uncomfortable don’t you think?

This next one is all about Gabby being Gabby. I love the line “You do know I’m gay right?” Hehehe. I can’t wait to see what in the world is up with Gabby and Carlos’ new roommate. What kind of business IS she running? Obviously Gabby thinks she’s a prostitute. What do you think?
