Character Analysis

(Avoiding Spoilers)

Overview… an advertising executive-turned-househusband living on Wisteria Lane. For much of his life married to Lynette, Tom is out of the house at the office or on business trips, leaving her to wrangle their four children alone. But when they switch roles and Tom becomes a stay-at-home dad, his priorities shift and some insecurities emerge.

Personality… loving and devoted to his family. His laid-back attitude gives Lynette the space to call the shots, which she’s quite good at (and rather relishes). He’s fun-loving, which can sometimes translate into immaturity, especially when he lets his own anxieties take the driver’s seat in his life.
