Thread: Actor on Desperate Housewives 11/13

    Actor on Desperate Housewives 11/13

    Did anyone see this episode? At the very beginning Gabrielle is trying on a skin tight blue dress and talking to the sales person. He offers her the next size to try on...."0" instead of the "00" she's wearing. Anyway.....I KNOW that actor! His name is Alec Mappa and he's a hoot! I know this is a useless bit of information, but I just wanted to share.

    I have seen that actor before, too, but I couldn't figure out where. Is there really such a size as 00?! And do you think she really wears that size?!

    I also saw on TV the other day that the actor that plays the man in locked in the basement got fired for "exposing" himself on the set. What's the scoop with that?

    I thought the sales person was hysterical! He reminded me just a little bit of Charlotte's friend on S*x and the City. Flamboyant as everything!

    I wondered if size 00 actually existed too. At least they didn't call it -1 or something like that!!

    I thought she was supposed to be pregnant.

    She is and that's why the 00 was too tight and he suggested the 0. And then she got mad at him for calling her "fat". double

    She's supposed to be 3 months along. I think "Gabby time" is the longest, most extended time in the universe. Bree is on that same time scale though...she mentioned that Rex had only been gone two months. It seems like Lynette has been at her job for MONTHs....and that Carlos has been in prison for AGES!

    Yes, but since they've used the oldest end-the-unwanted-pregnancy trick in the book, Gaby may be a 00 again indefinitely.

    She is. That's why at the end, even after not eating for 2 days, she "blossomed" even more and had to have the gardeners zip up the dress....which she split the minute she sat down! BTW, Alec is truly very flamboyant. What you saw is the real Alec. He is a sweetheart and extremely funny.
