John Rubinstein is Recession Proof

Imagine Dish's surprise to see John as MJ's headmaster on Desperate Housewives, then on Brothers & Sisters as someone else! On DH, John was nice enough to admit Teri Hatcher's adorable son to his school and give her a job (even though she ruined my life twice by marrying Jon Tenney then by having the audacity to make out with Gale Harold on the show). I fell asleep in the middle of B&S so don't remember what John did. Rest assured, my last thought was of John, the excellent nasally Pippin of Broadway past, and how fortunate he was to have two lucrative jobs. At his age, you only hope to get cast as a child molester/fertility specialist on Law & Order: SVU, but John has transcended L&O squalor. He is the light. He is a double-working actor.

And how cool that Sally Field is having relations with Lindsay from Chariots of Fire? It's the only entertaining part of B&S this season. Lindsay is the funnest and might rival Donald Sutherland for my OMP affections.
