Let's make this birthday one to remember.

48 years old (Born on December 21, 1976)

Happy Birthday, John Pardee! Another year stepping carefully around suburban secrets and delighting us all with your razor-sharp wit. From mysteriously disappearing gardeners to housewives who juggle scandalous love affairs amidst neighborhood bake sales, your storytelling mastery has made Wisteria Lane unforgettable—just don't let Bree catch you skimping on party etiquette today.

As you celebrate another orbit around the sun, may life's plots thicken deliciously yet spare you any actual drama (we know you've written enough). Here's hoping this coming year is filled with as much laughter, intrigue, and acclaim as the iconic world you've created. Cheers to you—even Gabrielle would surrender a spotlight moment in your honor!
