When Marc Cherry said an Oceanic airplane would crash on Wisteria Lane, he didn’t say that in the way that we sometimes refer to the street when we really mean the entire show. No, he meant that the plane actually crashes on Wisteria Lane. Well, on some houses, to be exact.
Check the photos out here, at tv.popcrunch.com.
Now I’ve studied these photos. I’ve zoomed in and tried to search for clue within the debris, and then — after I realized I couldn’t find anything anyway — I decided that I didn’t want to know who dies. For some unknown reason, …read more

!!!!!SPOOOOILER!!!!!
Marc Cherry has announced there’s going to be a plane crash on Wisteria Lane, and it’ll be BIG.
“It’s going to be my cliffhanger for the first half of the season,” Cherry told EW.com’s Michael Ausiello. Not only that, but the crash will “affect everyone’s lives.”

But don’t worry, he says — this crash won’t kill off any of the ‘wives. No one major dies, but this crash affects everyone’s lives? Hmmmmmmmm. I imagine that means either Lynette and/or Orson will be on the flight when it crashes. She’ll lose her twins and Orson dies? This makes those “problems” go away in …read more

Oh, I’ve got some GOOD stuff for you guys!!!
Marc Cherry recently got grilled (sort of literally) by thewrap.com and spilled a TON of good stuff in spoiler land, as well as his general feeling on the show’s run. For example, he regrets bringing in the second season mystery so quickly.
The second season certainly wasn’t a favorite of mine, so how weird is it to hear the show’s creator talk about things he’d do differently, you know?
But enough of the mindless talk! On to the spoiler. How do you come back after a great season like season five — one that …read more

It’s no secret there always have been rumors about the ladies getting along on the show — with Nicollette Sheridan in particular.
But Marc Cherry has come in defense of the woman who played the now-deceased village vixen.
“Edie was fantastic for the show and I do not have a negative word to say about her,” he said to Showbiz Spy. “Her character was actually not supposed to have as long a run in the show but she was so good in the pilot I had to keep her in. Part of my job is knowing when the end has come …read more

With Sarah Palin’s recent announcement that she’ll be stepping down early as governor of Alaska, we’re going back to some old rumors that swirled late last year: that she could become the newest desperate housewife. Ken Tucker from Entertainment Weekly has the same idea.
It was sort of mentioned lightly last year, what with her hot career in politics and all….but now? This is seriously a viable option for the conservative pro-abstinence parent of an unwed teenage mother. Ken’s reasoning is that we need a replacement for Edie. I disagree — we need someone to take over the NRA-badge-totin role on …read more

Yes, we’re going to have to wait another week until we see what happens to Edie. She has survived the accident, and is in a coma. This, of course, brings up bunches of flashbacks (including this hilarious one of Edie competing with Gaby for some dudely attention).
Edie’s always been sorta the outsider, so it’ll be nice to see her in this way. Plus, now that she’s leaving, isn’t it about time she got her face in the ending of the opening credits?? Come on, Marc!

Victoria Beckham and her posh shoulders (shown in this photo shopping in Milan on Tuesday) are too busy to guest star on “Desperate Housewives,” friend Eva Longoria Parker told monstersandcritics.com.
“She is a bright girl and so funny,” Eva said. “We would love her on the show and the show’s creator, Marc Cherry, thinks she is super. But Victoria is way too busy with her fashion empire, which is a shame.”
Still, I don’t know what I think about her having a cameo. But if she’s got a good role in the show, it’d be better than a pretend-lesbian kiss, that’s …read more

Marc Cherry said yesterday that Gale Harold, who plays Susan’s (ex)boyfriend Jackson, will most definitely be returning by the end of the season.
“We are planning to write him in before the end. We had to wait while he did his recovery, but he will be back,” Cherry told Kristin Dos Santos from E!.
I know some people think he was a bad fit to begin with, and I for one, always will see him as Brian Kinney from “Queer as Folk”…so what do we think about this?
And how will he fit back into the story? I’m predicting there’ll be some epic …read more

Marc Cherry has been asked to cut $1 million from the ‘wives budget, reports E!’s Ted Casablanca. So that means, although Nicollette’s departure from the show has definitely been confirmed, she won’t be the only one. As for now, it’ll only be “guest stars” leaving, Ted said.
Who do you think will be desperately searchin’ for a new job? Better yet, who do you think should be desperately searchin’ for a new job?
These are my guesses: No more Lily Tomlin as one half of the Old-Lady P.I.s (though they best not be getting rid of Mrs. McCluskey…). I think we already …read more

Andrew Bowen told Kristin Dos Santos from E! Online that she and the rest of the cast were only expecting to do seven seasons — until Marc Cherry announced that he was thinking about doing nine.
“It kind of surprised all of us that he’s contemplating going nine, but if our fans support it, it’s a great thing. If our only problem is should we do more seasons, then you don’t really have a problem. If we can keep it really entertaining and make good television, why not go as long as possible?”
