brinshannara | Okay, so am I the last person to know?

Am I the last person on the planet to realize that TERI HATCHER has a role on Desperate Housewives? (Which, by the way, is taking the Alias timeslot, at least for the fall.)

I'm sitting there watching All My Children today and I've seen the promos for DH before, so I wasn't really paying attention. But I guess the way one of the women moved or something looked familiar. Watching old episodes of Lois & Clark seems to have paid off, because I said to myself "WTF, is that Teri Hatcher? Nahhhhh. Couldn't be."

Later, I looked her up on IMDB to see what she's up to (she'll be 40 in December. Who knew that?!) and wouldn't you know it. Playing the role of Susan on Desperate Housewives.

Anyways, crazy, crazy. She doesn't look entirely like herself. I'm trying to decide if it's because she doesn't look entirely anorexic (with bad hair, as she did in the late L&C seasons) or if she's had some work done on her face. There's something bugging me about her eyes, but when it airs, I guess I'll figure it out.

Damn, and I thought I'd have my Sunday nights free 'till January! ;) Not that I'm complaining. Teri Hatcher. Back on my TV. Regularly. This is such a happy thing.

And because I love my Teri and my Dean, my Lois and my Clark, witness a new icon.
