Desperate Househunk Gale Harold Returns

A strong Gale force is blowing back through Wisteria Lane—Gale Harold, that is.

Six months after the actor was faced with the offscreen drama that was a serious, intensive care-requiring motorcycle accident, Teri Hatcher's onscreen love interest is set to make his triumphant return to Desperate Housewives on the show's May 3 episode.

An ABC rep revealed the date for the Housewives homecoming, which Marc Cherry himself confirmed to E! News last month.

"We are planning to write him in before the end," Cherry said. "We had to wait while he did his recovery, but he will be back."

And not a moment too soon, if his once and future leading lady's (unwitting) flirtation with batting for the other team is any indication.

Harold, who underwent brain swelling as a result of his October crash, will reprise his role as housepainter Jackson Braddock. He'll remain at least through the end of the season.
