Larry Hagman Previews his Politically Incorrect Return to DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES
With the mystery surrounding “Who shot J.R.?” long solved, one really only has one question to ask the legendary Larry Hagman on the eve of his return to DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES tonight: With over fifty years in the business and a resume of memorable roles a mile long, what on earth keeps the 79-year old actor working when he could just as easily retire to his to his ranch in Ojai California?
“The old adage… retire and die,” explained Hagman.
Which also explains why, before returning to his most infamous and iconic role of J.R. Ewing in the already-anticipated TNT reboot of DALLAS (set to start shooting this May), Hagman will detour to Wisteria Lane one more time in an effort to add a little more drama to poor Lynette’s life as he reprises his role as her abrasive new father-in-law Frank.

GLEE! GOSSIP GIRL! GOOD WIFE! Our TV Addict Week in Rewind
Most Unintentionally Educational Series: Whether the show is shamelessly throwing out tips on how to pass a mandatory office drug test, or illustrating how one might go about saving a little money by scoring free household supplies, SHAMELESS deserves serious points for not just entertaining us on a week-in-and-week-out basis, but teaching us a few things as well.
Most Disrespectful Interview: In his much-touted pre-Super Bowl chat, Bill O’Reilly treated President Barack Obama as if he were a sparring partner rather than the leader of the free world. Imagine how many heads would have imploded at Fox News if, say, Rachel Maddow asked Sarah Palin what it felt like to be hated… yet O’Reilly somehow found that to be an appropriate question.
Best Superbowl Ad: How could you not love Max Page — who until recently played adorable moppet Reed on THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS — as Darth Vader’s mini-me?
Best Excuse for a Repeat Viewing: Goes to the gang from HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER who, much to surprise, were actually decked out in colors correlating to Marshall’s game of Clue, which in case you missed had Ted in purple (Professor Plum), Zoey in white (Mrs. White), Barney in green (Mr. Green), and Katy Perry’s Honey in red (Miss Scarlet).
