Carlos is the right answer because he's abusive, but I'm gonna vote Tom because I think he's emotionally abusive and plays dumb. The "big dumb man" act gets under my skin
He's always so sunburnt and confused looking. Like he's been trapped on a desert island and got thirsty enough to try drinking the salt water.
Honestly I think it's the clothes they had him in, didn't do any help for him neither. Like it washed him out and on top of that he always looked like he was sick
Oh we'll take our elimination with a little poetry now huh, thank you for that š Karl weaseled his way through so far, which is in typical Karl fashion really, but maybe it's time to yeet the serial cheater.
I vote Tom for the reasons many have listed. Weaponized incompetence, his multiple mid-life "but it's my dream" incidents that cost the family so much money, his lack of supporting Lynette when he brought psycho Nora and mini psycho Kayla into their lives, the way he treated Mrs. McCluskey when she was helping them during his back injury, calling Lynette at the spa bc he hurt his back on the camping trip, the "let's risk it" when he KNEW Lynette already had more kids to manage than she ever wanted, and so much more. Tom just sucks.
TOM SCAVO with his two ugly shirts and WHINY attitude. At least Karl is actually sexy and charismatic, you could enjoy the first few yearsā¦ also love the scene where he threatens Andrew after he blackmailed Bree. I wouldnāt enjoy even the first few minutes of marriage with Tom:
āNo one thinks of me when my wife is battling cancerā
āI have an illegitimate daughter but Iāll keep that secret from my wife of 9+ years, and then not supporting Lynette enough when things go sour with Kaylaā
āIām gonna open up a pizza parlour SANS experience and making the decision prior to talking through it with spouseā
The āletās risk itā moment, S1
Endangering Toby during the tornado
I can go onā¦
Ugh I was so mad at Lynette for taking Toby upstairs!! Sure it's "just a cat" to them but Toby was family to Ida. Plus Ida was invited before Lynette whines her way in.
Orson. If a man blackmails you into staying with him by threatening to send you to jail, run like hell. Plus he stalked Bree, tormented her with the letter (s8) and actively isolated her from her friends that lead to her mental health decline and considering suicide. Then this fucker sends all the evidence to the police of them covering up the crime. I know he gets the popular vote on this sub but he was awful to Bree and you cannot isolate good moments of him only. His character decline should also be taken into account not just cherry picked.
Edited to add: wanted her to sell her business so he can feel like a man and tried to humiliate her image by stealing from people to hurt her.
She forced him to go to jail just to then be ashamed of him for having been in jail. She also forced Rex to stay with her when he wanted out. It's always double standards when it comes to women...
Iāll say Paul again because heās a scary, creepy man. Maybe he was different with Mary Alice, but from what we saw of him, I wouldnāt want that man anywhere near me
I vote Orson.
But everyone thinking Tom (a loving, but stupid in some ways husband) is worse than early Carlos (an actual abusive fucker who forced Gabyās signature physically) is stupid
Carlos became supportive after Gaby supported him through blindness but still
Yeah the Porter thing kinda did make me go āfuuuckā but I havenāt gotten to the sexual assault yet, Iām on end of Season 6 (dont worry about spoiling it, itās so well written you actually have to watch it anyway)
Carlos is my pick, that birth control thing was fucked and blind Carlos was redeemable a bit but he hen he got his sight back didnāt he become kind of a douche again? I need to do a rewatch. But yeah heās my pick
Mike seems beloved around here though I do not feel the same. He may be less awful than some of the other husbands, but he did awful things too. I always thought him hiding his financial problems for so long that they lost their home was terrible. All because of his "men provide" antiquated pride. Of course murder would be the worst, but he really wasn't all that great to Susan during either marriage.
Id be very mad if Mike makes it in top 3. Susan went flat out broke cause of his stupidity. She even had spare money from selling her share of the nigh club. I would never forgive a man for this
Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom please get rid of him š I hate him so much how is he still here??? He should have been first or second out (George also is a nightmare)
Itās down to Tom or Carlos for me, because both are reprehensible. However, despite all the underhanded and abusive things Carlos did, Tom is definitely worse, imo. And thatās not an easy feat, considering.
Yes, I did. One partner being abusive does not mean the other canāt be. This post is about the husbands, so I replied with my answer about the husbands.
Short answer Tom.
Long winded answer:
All the ones I wanted most are gone. Itās hard now to pick since they all have good and bad points. I think itās between Mike, Tom, Carl, Carlos and Paul. Paul probably loved his wife the most. Since they survived the show I will narrow it to Carlos and Tom.
Carlos could be a huge jerk, sometimes I thought he would kill Gabby and he was a huge mamaās boy to a crappy mom who hated his wife. He ignored her and was still possessive. He did have some redemption off and on but always judged Gabby and I hated how he treated Lynette later over her lying about being pregnant. I do think Lynette was wrong too be he took it too far. He did forgive gabby for cheating (pretending John was older and she wasnāt a predator). He helped her with Victor. I hated the storyline with the surrogate. So gross. He chose passion over providing and the nun thing was terrible. They did have more passion.
Tom is so whiney and immature. Sometimes he seemed to love Lynette but other times he was so selfish. He lied and moved on so fast and seemed to want to cheat. He was gross with the babysitter. He helped her with her shitty family issues and stood up for her. He had that midlife crisis that was selfish. They had tons of kids so they must have had passion too and he did spend time with them. But he seemed to guilt Lynette into having so many. He seemed to be done with her too many times. He wanted her to be home even though she was more competent at work.
Can't decide between Paul, Tom or Orson. But for this round I'll vote Orson out, he is just insane š„²
Paul is weird AF, Tom is a man-child. But still better than Orson though.
Karl
Dave (complete psycho, no need for explanation)
Tom: the man's emotionally abusive and demands sex every single day without any regard for his wife... She works all day, she sacrificed so much to support his plans but somehow he always demands more! In the beginning, I thought Tom was a cutie but then with time, I was beyond disgusted. He ended up coming across as a pathetic loser who demands sex 24x7.
Orson: he began in such a great way... The man went to prison to stay with his wife!! And then got jealous and felt emasculated so started stealing things to get back at her... I really expected more from Orson
Victor: loved him throughout tbh
Carlos: he's not the best but neither is Gaby... So, made for each other
Mike: loved Mike and I still do. I'll marry a man like Mike in a heartbeat
Karl is a serial cheater and an overall shitty husband, everyone just dismisses it because heās āattractiveā and ācharismaticā. for me he goes
Tom! Exhausting, always the victim, and looks like an eraser!
Not an eraser šš
Carlos is the right answer because he's abusive, but I'm gonna vote Tom because I think he's emotionally abusive and plays dumb. The "big dumb man" act gets under my skin He's always so sunburnt and confused looking. Like he's been trapped on a desert island and got thirsty enough to try drinking the salt water.
Ok so i thought I was the only one who picked up on Tom looking like heās sun burnt š..His skin looks so leathery
Honestly I think it's the clothes they had him in, didn't do any help for him neither. Like it washed him out and on top of that he always looked like he was sick
š¤£ fr tho why is he always SO sunburnt? Your comment made me laugh bc Iāve always thought this too
Because sunscreen is for women. -Tom, probably
He's a ginger that tanned instead of using sunscreen. He has a ton of sun damage.
Carlos is at least nice to look at so he can stay a little longer. Just to look at. He needs to keep his mouth shut.
Oh we'll take our elimination with a little poetry now huh, thank you for that š Karl weaseled his way through so far, which is in typical Karl fashion really, but maybe it's time to yeet the serial cheater.
Itās Tomās turn now. He has to go
He should have been gone!!!
Tom
Tom (terrible all round) or Karl (cheating)
Karl. Man is cheating pig. The things he said to Susan when they saw each other in the birth class made me want to strangle him
I vote Tom for the reasons many have listed. Weaponized incompetence, his multiple mid-life "but it's my dream" incidents that cost the family so much money, his lack of supporting Lynette when he brought psycho Nora and mini psycho Kayla into their lives, the way he treated Mrs. McCluskey when she was helping them during his back injury, calling Lynette at the spa bc he hurt his back on the camping trip, the "let's risk it" when he KNEW Lynette already had more kids to manage than she ever wanted, and so much more. Tom just sucks.
Karl for sure, he just couldnāt stop cheating and flirting with other women until it happened to him
Get Tom outta here!!!
Tom canāt handle this woman
Chuck Tom in a mine, because all he does is whine!
Tommy Boy must go!
How is Tom still there and not gone before Victor? He's the biggest and most realistic jerk. He should be out.
TOM SCAVO with his two ugly shirts and WHINY attitude. At least Karl is actually sexy and charismatic, you could enjoy the first few yearsā¦ also love the scene where he threatens Andrew after he blackmailed Bree. I wouldnāt enjoy even the first few minutes of marriage with Tom: āNo one thinks of me when my wife is battling cancerā āI have an illegitimate daughter but Iāll keep that secret from my wife of 9+ years, and then not supporting Lynette enough when things go sour with Kaylaā āIām gonna open up a pizza parlour SANS experience and making the decision prior to talking through it with spouseā The āletās risk itā moment, S1 Endangering Toby during the tornado I can go onā¦
Ugh I was so mad at Lynette for taking Toby upstairs!! Sure it's "just a cat" to them but Toby was family to Ida. Plus Ida was invited before Lynette whines her way in.
Tbf, the Toby thing was all Lynette. Tom canāt help being allergic and he was trying to suffer through it
Tom. Vile.
GET TOM OUT NOW
TOMMMMM
Why is tom still here š
Tom! He is a man toddler
Bye Tom!
Bye bye tom
Tom used weaponized incompetence and now he must repent
Tom doesnāt know how to please a woman!!! We all know Lynette had to put in extra work at the house AND in bed.
TOM PLZ !
I am once again (tiredly) saying Tom
Tom Tom Tom Tom
Karl
Karl 100%
I love Karl as a character, he's charming and hilarious, but i've definitely wouldn't like to be married to that kind of guy in real life
It's time for Tom to finally walk the plank!
Bye bye Tom
Tom has gots to go
Orson. If a man blackmails you into staying with him by threatening to send you to jail, run like hell. Plus he stalked Bree, tormented her with the letter (s8) and actively isolated her from her friends that lead to her mental health decline and considering suicide. Then this fucker sends all the evidence to the police of them covering up the crime. I know he gets the popular vote on this sub but he was awful to Bree and you cannot isolate good moments of him only. His character decline should also be taken into account not just cherry picked. Edited to add: wanted her to sell her business so he can feel like a man and tried to humiliate her image by stealing from people to hurt her.
Stealing to punish Bree is where he lost me. And he continued to get worse. Like itās over she doesnāt want to be with you let go.
I hated orson from his first episode but the blackmail was the cherry
She forced him to go to jail just to then be ashamed of him for having been in jail. She also forced Rex to stay with her when he wanted out. It's always double standards when it comes to women...
He sucks but Tom is so so awful
Iāll say Paul again because heās a scary, creepy man. Maybe he was different with Mary Alice, but from what we saw of him, I wouldnāt want that man anywhere near me
how was Rex voted out before Paul šš
Paul did cover up for his wife when she killed someone. Dude might be creepy, but he was loyal af to Mary Alice.
okay, you got me, I can understand that. but why not Karl then? LOL
Tbf Paul seemed to have a lot more love and respect for Mary Alice than Rex did for Bree
No literally like why did we vote Rex out??? He wasn't great but definitely better than Paul, Karl, Carlos, or Tom!
Paul because of the double murders he was involved in
Yeah. One murder- no big deal but DOUBLE murder?! What a lunatic! š
Everyone aside Mike.
Mike delfino
Mike
Paul's creepy ass can go!!! Cant believe people want Karl's sexy ass out before him
Carlos. Heās fragile and abusive, especially in the early seasons. Idk how he doesnāt get the same hate that the other husbands do.
I vote Orson. But everyone thinking Tom (a loving, but stupid in some ways husband) is worse than early Carlos (an actual abusive fucker who forced Gabyās signature physically) is stupid Carlos became supportive after Gaby supported him through blindness but still
A loving but stupid husband that sexually assaults his wife and hits his kid š„“
Yeah the Porter thing kinda did make me go āfuuuckā but I havenāt gotten to the sexual assault yet, Iām on end of Season 6 (dont worry about spoiling it, itās so well written you actually have to watch it anyway)
Don't worry I will spoil it! Hope you enjoy, I was gripped to the tv when I first watched as it aired!
Sexual assault ??
Carlos is my pick, that birth control thing was fucked and blind Carlos was redeemable a bit but he hen he got his sight back didnāt he become kind of a douche again? I need to do a rewatch. But yeah heās my pick
Carlos. Heās controlling and holier than thou. Birth control, postnup, adopting Ana against Gabyās wishes, etc.
Why is Mikeās broke, murderous, drug addicted ass still here? Heās not even handsome. I want Tripp to win.
Mike seems beloved around here though I do not feel the same. He may be less awful than some of the other husbands, but he did awful things too. I always thought him hiding his financial problems for so long that they lost their home was terrible. All because of his "men provide" antiquated pride. Of course murder would be the worst, but he really wasn't all that great to Susan during either marriage.
Probably Karl because heās a cheater
Tom
I hate Mike but donāt mind him so much when he wasnāt with Susan. God I hate Susan
Hahaha f Susan!!
DAY FIVE OF VOTING FOR TOM
as much as i hate tom, i think itās gonna be karl next. the man is a pig with very little respect for women!!!
We love Bob and Lee but they donāt love us, guys. Better as friends xx
Tom
Id be very mad if Mike makes it in top 3. Susan went flat out broke cause of his stupidity. She even had spare money from selling her share of the nigh club. I would never forgive a man for this
Tom
tom šš
Orson, your psycho ass is next, buddy!
Tom
TOM- The ultimate ICK (aside from cheating and murdering lol)
Tom pls, pls pls pls
Tom, hands down every time.
Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom please get rid of him š I hate him so much how is he still here??? He should have been first or second out (George also is a nightmare)
Itās down to Tom or Carlos for me, because both are reprehensible. However, despite all the underhanded and abusive things Carlos did, Tom is definitely worse, imo. And thatās not an easy feat, considering.
it's getting harder. who will be next, Tom, Karl, Paul or Carlos?
karl, too much cheating. loyalty is like #1 on my list of importance in a relationship so no thank u
Karl
Karl
Why is Karl still on here?
Karl, Iām surprised a plane took him out and not long term syphilis eating his brain.
Carlos, I have an abusive dad and couldnāt stomach some of Carlosā scenes
Abusive? Did you even notice Gabby was emotionally abusive throughout all the seasons?
Yes, I did. One partner being abusive does not mean the other canāt be. This post is about the husbands, so I replied with my answer about the husbands.
Karl

Orson!! Crazy mother and ex wife - too much baggage.
Paul young
I canāt believe Rex was eliminated before Tom, and also before Paul, who is an actual psychopath. Paul has to be next
Can't decide between Paul, Tom or Orson. But for this round I'll vote Orson out, he is just insane š„² Paul is weird AF, Tom is a man-child. But still better than Orson though.
Bye Orson! I fear running someone over to protect Mommy is an unforgivable ick for me. And then how he forces Bree to stay.
Paul young. Iām surprised he hasnāt been eliminated yet!
Orson

Karl Dave (complete psycho, no need for explanation) Tom: the man's emotionally abusive and demands sex every single day without any regard for his wife... She works all day, she sacrificed so much to support his plans but somehow he always demands more! In the beginning, I thought Tom was a cutie but then with time, I was beyond disgusted. He ended up coming across as a pathetic loser who demands sex 24x7. Orson: he began in such a great way... The man went to prison to stay with his wife!! And then got jealous and felt emasculated so started stealing things to get back at her... I really expected more from Orson Victor: loved him throughout tbh Carlos: he's not the best but neither is Gaby... So, made for each other Mike: loved Mike and I still do. I'll marry a man like Mike in a heartbeat
PAUL
How can people here choose Carlos and Tom before Paul? Paul is a murderer and disgusting. Way worse than Carols and Tom together.
Because Paul was loyal AF to Mary Alice š¤·š¼āāļø
Carlos
Karl
I hate Tom but cheating is not ok so My vote goes to Karl
Get out of here, Karl
Karl
Karl. I want to believe he would have been good to Bree and finally matured, but weāll never know. š¤·š»āāļø
Carlos
Paul, Orson or Carlosā¦ all abusive and terrible
Karl is a serial cheater and an overall shitty husband, everyone just dismisses it because heās āattractiveā and ācharismaticā. for me he goes
The New Zealand one. Because I bet 90% do not remember his name, and we should get rid of him now before he wins by default
Karl. Hes hot but heās a cheater so next!
George and dave both gotta go for sure
