Desperate Housewives: “How About A Friendly Shrink?” (Season 6; Episode 13)

Original Air Date: January 17,  2010 (Season 6, Episode 13)

Lynette balks at the idea of seeing a couples’ therapist. Meanwhile, Katherine is seeing her own psychiatrist, Gaby and Susan are determined to find out which of if their kids are in the smartest group at school, and Angie disapproves of Danny’s new girlfriend, Ana!

Let me first start out by saying I used to love Bree and Orson together until the writers wrecked their storyline and made me hate Orson to the point I wanted him off the show.  Don’t get me wrong, I love Kyle MacLachlan, but Orson has been a pain in the behind and things are getting worse every week.

Tom and Lynette’s storyline this week was fun and touching at the same time. Tom told Lynette last week that they needed to talk about the loss of the baby and they desperately needed it even if Lynette denied it all the way to the shrink’s office. I could feel her pain as Lynette reluctantly started talking to the shrink (played by Frasier‘s Jane Leeves). It will be interesting to see how the Scavos cope with the upcoming therapy sessions and how it’ll affect them as a couple.

I’d like to go on the record right now by saying I was not a bit surprised that Angie didn’t like Ana and was ready to do anything possible to break Danny and Ana up. What surprised me about this story line was when Lee put in his two cents about the situation, and Angie actually following his suggestion to give Ana a chance.

And how cute was it to see Gabby and Susan try to discover what the animal groups really meant but it got old soon. Once again, both characters needed to make fools of themselves in order to learn how to be moms.

And FINALLY, we get to see Katherine!! Since we last saw her about 3 episodes ago when she was sent to the looney bin, she has had weeks of one-on-one time with her shrink to analyze her actions and return to reality.  I thought she looked genuinely better, and I did not believe she was faking it to her shrink, do you?

McCluskey comes to the rescue again! This time, she helped Katherine realize that she could return to Wisteria Lane and even convinced Lynette, Gaby, Bree, and Susan to come see Katherine.  It’ll be interesting to see how everyone copes with her return, including Katherine herself. I truly believe that Katherine is one of the best characters on the show right now, and she has been pretty much one of the people that kept me watching the show.

Comments??   Suggestions??   Love to hear from you!!


Until Next Time!
