"Desperate Housewives" Season 5 Episode 13


The 100th episode of 'Housewives' was to me a return to form for a show that's been rubbish most of this fifth series! Who cares about the intrigue with the psychopath, Carlos getting his sight back [go figure] and the contrived storylines for everyone else... but the death of handyman Eli Scruggs and the girls reflections on his pivotal and supportive role in their struggles and stories had a realistic, grainy and important dynamic in the story...

Who are the people who help you through the tough stuff? What are your priorities? Who tells you you're OK? When has someone or something unexpected been affirming, pivotal or transformative in your life story... how is an overwhelmingly positive energy present in your life? Who listens to you?

Eli Scruggs saved cookbook drafts, changed locks, asked questions, unblocked plumbing and reflected the best in people back to them!!
