We all know how Marcia’s doctors ordered her to bed-rest for the rest of her pregnancy and about how the show’s production scrambled to turn Marcia’s home into a replica of Bree’s Wisteria Lane home so they could film a few more scenes. But Marcia’s hasty departure from the set means there’s room for other stories to take her place. That’s where James comes in.

So, it’s kind of fun, because it got me out of jail quicker!” Good for you, James. Way to find the silver lining there.
