Of course last week was a big tease, so I am looking at the local listings now…

It’s ON BABY! Desperate Housewives!! You know, I remember the first time I heard of that show. In fact I posted about it prior to the premiere. Heh. Of course I did.. I post everything. I even posted this once:

Last night was our first “Movie Night” with the Idol boys. It had been a few weeks since we all had seen each other, and so “Movie Night” was created. I think we may use it to fill the social void left by Idol and SYTYCD. At least until the fall programing starts!

Our first movie was I Think I Do. “A screwball comedy about a gay couple at a straight couple’s wedding.” It starred Alexis Arquette as a man. Interesting, but that’s not why the film was selected. It was because the cast also included Tuc Watkins. Fred thought it would be a fun idea to introduce us to one half of the new gay couple joining the Desperate Housewives. Heh. He was right!

Anyhoo, it was a good little movie. Romantic, funny, and a some cute guys. I liked it! It gets 4 out of five smooches on the official dp.com rating system.

On a side note, I found myself amazed that Alexis has taken the leap and had the surgury. She was adorable as a boy! But whatever. Be yourself and all that.. I know there are many reasons one might feel the need to swap genders, and cuteness is probably least important. At least the situation allowed me to use the tern “fully functioning vagina” in legitimate conversation.

Apparently I hadn’t researched this Desperate Housewives thing well enough. One of the new gay characters will be played by Tuc Watkins. Have you seen him? I hadn’t either…

The thought of Becks and Robbie bunking together on Wisteria Lane had me all hopped up last week! Turns out it was just a rumor. Aw! I know. There, there little one..

So last night we watched the season premier of the Desperate Housewives. It was so nice to be back on Wisteria Lane… I of course loved the episode, and had settled in for a night viewing. I was shocked to be grabbed early on by the new Calista Flockhart vehicle Brothers and Sisters. I think I have a new favorite show. First, I like Calista. Secondly… Sally Field?? I love her! The brothers are really cute too. This show has everything!

Brothers and Sisters follows the Walkers through the maze of American life today—the pressures, limitless options and the struggle to grow beyond our backgrounds into ourselves. Through these fascinating siblings—Sarah (Rachel Griffiths), the corporate VP who returns to the family business so she can give to her marriage as much as she does to her career; Tommy (Balthazar Getty), the loyal son yet charming womanizer; Kevin (Matthew Rhys), the gay lawyer cautiously learning about love; Justin (Dave Annable), the baby of the family, grappling with war trauma and addiction; and Kitty (Calista Flockhart), right-wing radio host turned TV pundit who has always been Daddy’s little girl—the show explores what it means to be a family in the 21st century, and how these brothers and sisters balance their own lives as they strive to accept their parents as people—flawed, contradictory and forgivable—rather than just as a father and mother.

Another new show I cannot wait for....
