Okay, so we all saw the last five minutes of the Season 4 Desperate Housewives finale and we all saw Susan Delfino kissing someone who wasn’t Mike! Argh. I’m still a little bitter about that.
But anyway, who was that guy she was kissing and will he be back? According to Ausiello over at TVGuide his name is Gale Harold (pictured above) and yes, he will be back in season 5.
Now I have nothing against this guy personally but I didn’t like seeing him kiss Susan! Maybe he will grow on me in season 5. I guess I’ll give him a chance.
Thanks to one of my Desperate Blog readers for the tip!

I LOVE GALE HAROLD!!! IS HE COMING BACK FOR SEASON 6? HE JUST MUST, I TELL YOU!
I dont like this Gale guy at all- I dont even think he is a good actor and there isnt a chance that he will take over from Mike – he aint good enough to kiss his shoes!
I agree I think they are all Gale relatives on here I mean what is there to like about him???
CONFUSED
I am going to watch if Gale Harold is on HUBBA HUBBA I never watched the show and now I will be glued to the set!!! he is one HOT man!
I’m a huge Gale fan, and I’m so happy and delirious he’s back on TV again. He’s definitely one of the most underestimated actors out there. He deserves all the praises, fame and glory that’s coming his way. I would watch him read a phone book, I would even watch him watch paint dry, he’s that good!
I stopped watching DH regularly after season 2. I was so bored at the whole Susan and Mike on and off relationship thing, and I hope Gale’s character will spice thins up on the show. Gale fans already know what the man is capable of doing, I just hope DH knows what a gold mine they hit, and will give him great storylines which will show the whole world what he’s made of.
they can get rid of mike Susan and Mike belong together> I just watched it last night i had it on my DVR and I am still upset about it. I don’t care how cute this new guy is he is not mike they belong together.
what are you talking about?? i don’t care if this man is handsome and a great actor! he’s not taking mike’s place.. they looked great together, why would they do something like that?? i got sooo angry. i totally agree with you natalia, they just can’t get divorced! and what the hell? didn’t they agree in no more drama??? after ian left i was pretty sure that susan and mike will stay together! grrrrrrrrr
what the hell was that!!! I dont want to see a different guy in susans life! I love mike! they just cant get divorced, plz dont change the story that way!
[...] that means we have two new men added to the cast – Neil McDonough and Gale Harold. I don’t know how much he will be in season 5. The fact that they said his character is [...]
Well, hey pat, grammy and others…I finaly found this site and thought I would add my views on Gale!…Great actor, great that he will be back on TV, and HOT, HOT, HOT!…think that covers it all, and I agree, the TV bosses of DH better realise what a great ASSet Gale will be to the show and don’t decide to be stupid like the bosses of Vanished-(which I don’t even watch ) BUT I WILL BE NOW- YOU BETYA!
Poor Gale will be even more hounded by fangirls now…never mind Gale…I’ll protect you:) If ony? hah!
later x
ddignyc: the traditional saying is “G.I.G.” (Gale is god) – Someone even printed that in a Toronto newspaper one time!.
I LOVE GALE!!!!!! Just when I thought I could not love a show more they go and cast Gale. If Susan and Mike have to break up, at least she gets to hook up with Gale. YUMMY! I miss Brian and Justin and the whole QAF gang.
Gale for god!!
Annemarie – you can get the 2 hour finale on iTunes for 1.99 and watch it on your computer or your iPod.
When was the 2 hour finale? We watch DHW all the time, but somehow missed the final episode.
When was it on, and is there some way we can still view it?
It’s Gale Harold back on my TV again. I don’t really care if he’s kissing Susan or not. It’s Gale, and he’s back. That’s more than enough for me.
NoBull – too bad your name isn’t descriptive of your post. I know a lot of the people voicing support for Gale here and I assure you, none of us is related to him. We’re loyal fans who follow his career.
Gale’s fan base is legion – we show up en masse wherever he works or appears. We track down bootlegs of his unreleased movies, we fly all over the world to see him in person and we’ve overwhelmed more than one forum for a show he was on, no matter how briefly.
We’ve been fairly low key here, but wait until next season – GALE FORCE will be in full-on fan mode, and it will be amazing. We’re extremely loyal and self-organizing, and given the shocked reactions when we show up in a new venue, Gale may actually boast the most active fan base of any TV actor. Apparently, no one else has this kind of following, no matter how well known they are, because no one seems to know what to do when we show up.
We’ve been mentioned in news articles that marvel at such an active fan base for a guy who’s not really mainstream. His fans treat him more like a rock star than an actor – much to his chagrin. He’s very shy and gets a little overwhelmed with all the attention, not to mention the pressure he often feels from such intense followers, but he more than deserves the accolades. He’s not just another actor – Gale is special.
As a group, we do everything we can to support his work, and we do it with no encouragement or even appreciation from him. By next season, there will be fan sites re-worked, new mailgroups formed and DH will have a whole new level of intense attention on the web, at least from us. We go to the nth degree to promote any show or movie he’s in, and we buy lots of merchandise, dvds, and other things to benefit a show that treats him well.
A smart production company could really build on our base if they recognize what they have in him. We’re just waiting for someone to give us a place to focus our energy. We thought Vanished might be it, but they didn’t know what a gift they had until they had done something really stupid and dirty. They’re probably still reeling from the fan revolt that followed. Hopefully, DH has smarter people in charge, and we’ll all have a wonderful Fall season to look forward to.
