Spoilers Anonymous In-Depth: 'Chuck,' 'Desperate Housewives' and 'Parks and Recreation' February Sweeps
This is Spoilers Anonymous In-Depth, a weekly column here at TV Squad where we discuss and give our two cents about recently released spoilers and how they may affect the story lines, shows and fans.This in-depth version of the column goes hand in hand with our weekly spoilers column, in which we supply you with the dirt on some of the more popular shows on the air.
This week, we discuss spoilers recently released for the first February Sweeps episodes of 'Chuck,' 'Desperate Housewives' and 'Parks & Recreation.'
'Chuck'
John Larroquette reprises his role of Roan Montgomery in the first episode of February Sweeps when Chuck, Sarah, and Casey have to go to Morocco in order to save him. Morgan will meet Alex's mother for the first time.
This will surely be a very funny episode, as John Larroquette is quite the character! But what interests me most about this episode is that we will meet Alex's mother for the very first time. You can bet that Morgan will freak out and be extremely anxious prior to the special event, but let's hope he gets into analytical mode in order to find out why she and Casey hooked up. This would definitely allow us to delve more into Casey's past.
'Desperate Housewives'
The show returns with new episodes on Feb. 13. Per the official description of the episode, Stella will try to force the Scavos to pose for a family portrait with Frank; Susan will be presented with a kidney donation from an unlikely source; and Mike gets in touch with Zach to see if he was involved in Paul's shooting.
As much as you may want to slap some sense into Frank, this obnoxious and opinionated character has been entertaining ever since he was introduced in the Jan. 16 episode. Just imagine how he'll react to all of Lynette's kids together in the same room while Stella is there trying to take charge to get a picture of everyone!
Who will be the unlikely source that will offer to give Susan a kidney? Paul, to try to redeem himself in the eyes of the Wisteria Lane residents? Or could the donor be Renee? We know that she has a heart beneath that stony exterior, but not all the characters know this so this could make her an "unlikely" source. Do you have ideas? Share them in the comments section below!
Even more intriguing is how Mike will discover that Zach may have shot Paul. This could lead to a rather awkward scene if Mike reunites Zach and Paul together and that all three have a chat about the shooting! Let's cross our fingers in the hope this will happen before the season ends.
'Parks & Recreation'
In the Feb. 3 episode, Andy turns to Chris (played by Rob Lowe) to get tips in order to win back April. Out of all the guys around, Andy chooses Chris for help?! Maybe Chris will show Andy how to go on "perfect dates" over and over again!
The following week, Tammy Swanson returns and you'll never guess which guy she goes on a date with: Tom! The latter is doing it in order to get back at Ron.
Rob Lowe rocks, and it'll be fun to see how happy-go-lucky Chris, who never went on a bad date until last week's episode, handles giving dating tips to Andy. But what will be even funnier is how Andy will interpret and apply said tips!
Tom dating Tammy (Megan Mullally) will be hilarious! Tom will probably pull out all his tricks in order to seek maximum revenge on Ron and make him suffer. Either Ron will be devastated by Tom dating Tammy or Ron will not see what is truly going on as he'll be blinded by Tammy's beauty and charms. Likely, Tom will lose this battle against Ron as it wouldn't be as funny as if he wins! Which side are you on?
'Chuck' airs Mondays at 8PM ET on NBC.
