Back in 2004, another Fab 4 invaded our TV screens. After The Beatles, and just right after the 4 ladies of SATC, they stormed the airwaves with their unique brand of dramedy with a touch of mystery.
That Fab 4, of course, are the Susan Mayer, Lynette Scavo, Bree Van de Kamp and Gabrielle Solis, or the "Desperate Housewives."
Just like SATC before it, each of the 4 housewives were characters on their own, with their own key personalities and strengths. Susan was the level-headed one, Lynette was the boss, Bree was Mrs. Perfect, and Gabby was the fashionista socialite.
While they were all funny and interesting as characters, I found Gabby Solis - played by the gorgeous Eva Longoria - as the one who was the funniest. With her questionable skills as a wife and a mother, plus her unmatched skills in fashion and style, it was the perfect combination for a fiery firecracker of a character.
One of my favourite scenes from "Desperate Housewives" was when Gabby went shopping. It showed her at her element, and her funniest.
Since reunion shows are the rage these days, someone should consider doing a "Desperate Housewives" reunion - even for a few episodes.
It's been so long, and it would be great to see Gabby Solis again.
