If you’ve been looking for a reason to watch Desperate Housewives this season, I found it: Dana Delany is joining the cast as Katherine Mayfair, the newest of the housewives.

I have to confess that I’ve always enjoyed Dana Delany, and quite frankly, Desperate Housewives really started to lose its luster for me last season. So I’m looking forward to seeing what she adds to the mix. According to the article, she’s going to play a darker version of Bree (Marcia Cross).

I’m keeping my fingers crossed hoping that she injects some much needed new life into the show because if this new addition fails to do that, Housewives could find itself in some ratings jeopardy by the end of the season.
