Let It Be So

Rumors that Dana Delany is joining Desperate Housewives are almost too exciting for words.

See, Dana was apparently originally offered the role of Bree but passed; she's now starving and wanting an iPhone, so she's swallowing her pride and signing up. The show could not get any worse, so we predict a good season.

Besides, Dana starred in Pasadena, one of the gultiest pleasures ever on TV, and an obvious inspiration for both Housewives and Brothers & Sisters (starting with the cast). Dios, that was a great show. Diane Keaton was an exec producer. Suicide, pseudo-incest, and alcohol abuse were featured in every episode. Had it not aired two weeks after 9/11, it could've found an audience. As is, it's a cult hit that occasionally gets a marathon on the SOAP Network.

Meanwhile, this headline made us laugh.
