    Talented and has some real acting potential. hide show

    Doug Savant plays Tom Scavo, husband of Lynette, on ABC's primetime hit, Desperate Housewives. Savant started off his career years ago on Melrose Place, though I never watched (I was too little at the time).

    Other than his character Tom, Savant isn't very well-known in the Hollywood industry. But because of his biggest role yet on Desperate Housewives, I think that he finally has a future ahead of him.

    The guy deserves more credit than he gets though. He's very talented and should be offered more roles than he gets. I hope to see Doug Savant in a movie or something soon. The guy deserves it.
