Desperate Housewives

Lynette decides to quit her job and manage the pizza restaurant full time.

Alma and Mrs. Hodge drug Orson enough so that Alma can sleep with him, in hopes of getting pregnant with his child to use as a bribe

Bree discovers them soon after the act and punches Alma.

Gaby goes out with Andrew, so that he will pay for a great lawyer for Mike, and they actually have a good night. That is until he plants a disgusting open mouth kiss on her.

Jane, Ian’s wife, is dying, and because Ian is out of town on business, Susan has to go. But it’s ok, because we learn from Jane’s best friend that the perfect comatose wife is not so perfect: she had an affair.

24

This season’s two-part premiere ended with a bang.

Jack is forced to kill Curtis Manning, in order to keep him from killing Assad. Why Jack wants Assad alive is yet to be seen.

The last seconds of the premiere showed Islamic radicals detonating an atomic bomb outside of LA. It appears that the fallout from this attack will be the focus of the rest of this season.

The Office

Dwight was out of the office for about half an episode total. But he was definitely missed.

Angela was in a terrible mood the entire time, but she did reach out to Oscar, and invited him to the party-planning meeting, because she had been mean to him in the past … and because he’s gay.

Andy tried to get closer to Michael, and it backfired on him. Michael hates Andy, because he’s not funny and because he follows him around everywhere.

Jim and Pam come closer together and play a prank on Andy. They take his cell phone, which is newly programmed to play “Rockin’ Robin,” and hid it above him in the ceiling tiles.

Andy freaks out when Jim and Pam call his phone over and over, as he desperately tries to find it. After yelling at every office member, he punches through the wall.

Eventually, Angela confesses that Dwight took the tax papers to the New York offices, but didn’t reveal why.

Michael goes to the Staples (Dunder Mifflin’s biggest competitor) that Dwight had been working at and rehires him.

Ugly Betty

It was finally revealed who that woman underneath the face mask is. Its Alex Meade, Daniel’s perfect brother.

He … I mean SHE has had a sex change, and Alex is now Alexis and played by Rebecca Romijn.

Betty takes Daniel takes to Karaoke, the paparazzi catch them, and Amanda, Daniel’s Monday night date, discovers them on Page Six.

Grey’s Anatomy

George’s father died. We all knew it was coming, but that didn’t make it any easier. If the decision to take Mr. O’Malley off life-support is any indication, George is the new head of his family, which will be an interesting transition in the weeks to come.

This week we discovered exactly why McSteamy was in such a bad mood last week: Addison aborted his baby, and this was the week it was due.

He was upset throughout the episode, especially after Addison told him she aborted the baby because she didn’t want his child. He got over it when Callie told him he would have been a terrible father because he didn’t like families or children.
