Desperate Housewives is getting sexy again, as Entertainment Weekly reports that hunkolicious Gale Harold is returning to the hit ABC dramedy after a far-too-long hiatus. Memo to the wardrobe department: keep that man shirtless as much as possible. Love, women everywhere.

Harold, who plays Susan's boyfriend Jackson, had to take an unplanned leave of absence from the show after suffering serious injuries in a motorcycle accident last October. After six months of recovery, the 39-year-old actor with the puppy dog eyes is ready to return to work.

"We were planning to end his storyline [around midseason]," said Desperate Housewives executive producer Marc Cherry. "But because of the accident, we get to bring him back for the end of the season, which will be a nice kind of full circle journey for Susan in Season 5."

In fact, Harold may stick around even longer than that, despite his previous assertions that he didn't want a long-term commitment to any show.

"I think Gale may have changed his priorities [since the accident]," Cherry said. "But those decisions won't be made until May."

Either way, the character's return is sure to make things extra exciting for Susan, as EW reports that (spoiler alert!) Jackson comes back to Wisteria lane intent on proposing. Say yes, Susan! He's so much more interesting than Mike!
