Desperate Housewives Finale Proves Classically Desperate
14 May 2012 5:00 AM, PDT | PEOPLE.com | See recent PEOPLE.com news »
Desperate Housewives is over. For longtime fans of the ABC comedy-drama, the two-hour finale flew by. The first half concluded the preposterous murder trial against Bree (Marcia Cross). It was sad to see Bree led off to the death chamber manacled and in an unflattering orange jumper. Am I kidding? As narrator Mary Alice would say: Yesssssss … The second half saw the death of one of the best-loved residents of Wisteria Lane, plus a wedding and a birth. If you're at all up on the season you know who did what of which. In other words, it was sweet, it was pat, »

Plus, Renee (Vanessa Williams) tries to get married, Julie (Andrea Bowen) goes into labor, and Gaby (Eva Longoria) wrestles with letting Carlos (Ricardo Antonio Chavira) confess to the murder, letting Bree (Marcia Cross) off the hook.

Episode Recap: Desperate Housewives - 8.14: "Get Out of My Life"
13 April 2012 1:14 PM, PDT | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »
Mary Alice: "Orson Hodge had always known one thing, Bree Van de Kamp was the perfect woman for him. When he was sick she nursed him back to health...and when he suffered a terrible injury she did things he couldn't. So now that Bree was suffering Orson intended to take care of her." Bree (Marcia Cross) tells Orson (Kyle MacLachlan) how she was abandoned by her friends after the dinner party. Mary Alice (Brenda Strong) "Yes Orson Hodge knew that Bree was the perfect woman for him and now that he had her back, he had no intention of letting her go." Mary Alice: "Lynette Scavo had discovered the silver lining of separation; shared custody. For three glorious days a week, she had no child demanding her attentions. No one to set an example for, and plenty of time to exercise - but Lynette forgot when it comes to being a mother, »

‘Desperate Housewives’ Series Finale Scoop: Is Gaby Dying?
12 April 2012 1:15 PM, PDT | HollywoodLife | See recent HollywoodLife news »
New Pepsi Next spokesperson Eva Longoria tells HollywoodLife.com about Gaby & Carlos' upcoming 'trials' in the show's final season. With only two episodes left until the two-hour series finale of Desperate Housewives, all the residents of Wisteria Lane are scared for their lives -- and their marriages! "They have a lot of trials coming up," Eva Longoria tells HollywoodLife.com of Gaby and Carlos (Ricardo Chavira), whose relationship became tense when Gaby became the family breadwinner last week. But fear not, fans of Fairview, it sounds like everything will be all right in the end. I definitely think Gaby and Carlos will always be together, from here to eternity. They're so loyal and supportive of one another. It's funny how Gaby and Carlos have become the model couple on the lane, because they were the most dysfunctional at the beginning." Eva -- who was in NYC last week promoting Pepsi's new low-sugar option, »

Episode Recap: Desperate Housewives - 8.10: "What's to Discuss, Old Friend"
20 March 2012 11:06 AM, PDT | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »
Note: possible spoiler in the final paragraph. Mary Alice (Brenda Strong) "Bree Van de Kamp (Marcia Cross) had always wanted to live life with elegant grace. That was also how she wanted to die: Chardonnay, lingerie...she had everything she needed for an elegant death, except privacy." Renee (Vanessa Williams) knocks on the door and shouts, finally knocking the door in. She doesn't find Ben there but sees the gun and reads Bree's suicide note. Mary Alice: "Renee Perry had no idea just how close her friend had come to suicide and Bree had no idea how close she had come to being hit." Mary Alice: "Keeping secrets is a lonely business - that's why we all search for someone to confide in...not everyone you tell your secrets to, will be happy about it." Tom (Dog Savant) tells Lynette (Felicity Huffman) she shouldn't be involved in this »

‘Desperate Housewives’ Recap: The Police Collect More Proof Against Bree
18 March 2012 7:55 PM, PDT | HollywoodLife | See recent HollywoodLife news »
Plus, Mike is laid to rest in one of the saddest TV funeral I've ever seen. Mike's (James Denton) funeral on the March 18 episode of Desperate Housewives turned out to be more than just a tearjerker, as the women of Wisteria Lane used their memories of him to reflect on some of their past hardships -- and realized what needs to be done to conquer their current demons. I'll start with Susan (Teri Hatcher), who was obviously the housewife most devastated by Mike's death. Her speech about having to say goodbye to her husband was heart wrenching, and I'd be surprised if any longtime fan of the show didn't shed a few tears while she envisioned Mike in heaven. But through this, she's going to find the courage to stand on her own two feet -- with the help of her friends, of course. For Gaby (Eva Longoria), Mike's selflessness »

Episode Recap: Desperate Housewives - 8.09: "Putting It Together"
12 March 2012 6:15 AM, PDT | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »
Mary Alice (Brenda Strong) "Whenever Bree van de Kamp (Marcia Cross) was feeling low, she found solace in the act of baking...when her first husband passed away she baked coffee cake...when her second husband went to jail she made sugar cookies. So when Bree's best friends stopped speaking to her she thought hot cherry scones might thaw their chilly relationships." Susan (Teri Hatcher) doesn't answer the door and Juanita (Madison de La Garza) claims Gaby (Eva Longoria) is in church, but it's Thursday. She was told to say that. Lynette (Felicity Huffman) replies she wonders why no one will talk to Bree. "Bake your way out of this one." She's isolated. Lynette calls her controlling which is what she tried to do to them, but that's just Lynette talking about herself. She's controlling and manipulative as this episode will show. Look at how she used her predicament to »

Episode Recap: Desperate Housewives - 8.08: "Suspicion Song"
29 February 2012 11:33 AM, PST | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »
Mary Alice: "There is nothing more peaceful than sounds of Wisteria Lane at night...murmur of neighbour's television...hum of the street lamps...song of the nightbirds. Wisteria Lane is so peaceful that even the slightest disturbance can be very alarming." Bree (Marcia Cross) hears a noise and gets her gun, to find Vance (Jonathan Cake) in her home, claiming the front door was open and he got her call on the radio. Yeah he got here Pdq, which Bree didn't notice. She's certain she locked the door. But Vance tells her it's funny the things you recall and don't recall. He calls Bree a Vic and knows she's hiding something. She doesn't feel safe but he's watching out for her. Mary Alice (Brenda Strong) "There is nothing more peaceful than the sounds of Wisteria Lane at night, until someone comes along and disturbs the peace." Vance doesn't want »

Episode Recap: Desperate Housewives - 8.07: "Always in Control"
24 February 2012 5:46 AM, PST | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »
Mary Alice: "No matter what the circumstances Bree Van de Kamp always found a way to stay in control...curved her impulses, maintained a strong moral centre - so when it came to handling a crisis - it made perfect sense that she was in the driving seat." Gaby (Eva Longoria) says they'll end up in prison, Lynette (Felicity Huffman) will start a gang, Bree (Marcia Cross) will cook and she'll be the shortest one there. Gaby then thinks of the note. Bree takes deep breathes and suggests the answers are in front of them. Bree mentions Susan (Teri Hatcher). Gaby says she's crazy. Lynette doesn't think Susan would have moved the body and calls her 'Cuckoo', so they can imagine what she would do if she knew Alejandro was missing. They leave it to Bree. Mary Alice (Brenda strong) "When it came to a crisis everyone was happy »

Mary Alice: "Paranoia: it's the irrational fear someone is after you. That you're going to be exposed at any moment. Paranoia sneaks upon you causing you to stumble at every turn...paranoia reminds you that no place is truly safe." Bree (Marcia Cross) Gaby (Eva Longoria) and Lynette (Felicity Huffman) stumble about in the woods as if someone is after them. Actually the part with Bree in the opening was good, it was like she was having a nightmare, but don't think she has nightmares really. They need to dig up Alejandro and Gaby wants it over with already. Mary Alice: (Brenda Strong) "Paranoia: it's the irrational fear someone is after you, but even after you hope it isn't real, it can still scare you to death." 3 Days earlier Mary Alice: "Susan Delfino (Teri Hatcher) had always been a great student...knew how to be the teacher's pet: gifts, »

Mary Alice: "In their twenty years together Tom and Lynette Scavo followed a few simple rules...always share the housework...and never go to bed angry. The rules for being together were simple, the rules for for being apart were anything but." Lynette (Felicity Huffman) doesn't want Tom (Doug Savant) having dinner with Jane. He's been taking her out to lobster places for dinner, she still gets the credit card bills. Tom claims Jane lives in his building and so he was being nice. They're just friends. The counsellor asks if they want to get back together or are looking for a graceful way out of their marriage. Tom was hoping to work things out and they haven't been happy with each other for a while.

‘Desperate Housewives’ Is Killing Off A Major Character — Who Do You Think Is Dying?
26 January 2012 11:33 AM, PST | HollywoodLife | See recent HollywoodLife news »
Share your theories & vote for which Fairview resident you think will (or should) bite the dust. I'm dying to find out! It's too bad real-estate goddess Edie Britt (Nicolette Sheridan) isn't around anymore, because there's about to be a vacancy on Wisteria Lane! Entertainment Weekly is reporting that a "major character" will be killed off Desperate Housewives on an episode scheduled for March 2012, and to give you an idea of just how shocking the death will be, the cast was just informed of the tragic twist last week! So which Wisterian should fear the Reaper? It's safe to say the four main women -- Susan (Teri Hatcher), Bree (Marcia Cross), Gaby (Eva Longoria) and Lynette (Felicity Huffman) -- will all live to see the series finale, but EW did promise it would be a "major character," so that still leaves plenty of options! In fact, many main characters are currently »

Episode Recap: Desperate Housewives - 8.03: "Watch While I Revise the World"
25 January 2012 11:30 AM, PST | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »
Mary Alice: "Susan Delfino and Carlos Solis had never been the best of friends...Susan thought Carlos paid too much attention to other people's opinions, Carlos thought she didn't have an opinion. Susan (Teri Hatcher) was troubled by thoughts she couldn't share with her spouse and Carlos (Richardo Antonio Chavira) was in the same predicament...suddenly found they had a great deal to talk about." Carlos sees ghost of Alejandro and Susan feels like she has a flashing 'guilty' neon sign on her forehead. She got 15 hours community service. Their talks feel so...Susan: "I know." She hoped to run into him and so did he. Carlos hasn't read To Kill A Mockingbird. Mary Alice (Brenda Strong) "Susan and Carlos were starting to pay attention to one another, but what they didn't realize was someone else was paying attention too." I.e Mike (James Denton) sees them through the window. »

Mary Alice: "When I was alive, Bree van de Kamp was one of my closest friends...had so much in common...received a threatening letter...I had once committed a desperate act of my own...someone found out and was determined to expose me....with one final act I had to consign my act to history...history has a way of repeating itself." Was this a not so subtle reference to how this final season is alluding to many aspects of the series from years gone by. Bree (Marcia Cross) tells Vance (Jonathan cake) she has only got a letter from a friend. Karen( Kathryn Joosten) hasn't seen anyone by her mailbox. Mary Alice (Brenda Strong) : "Bree Van de Kamp and I had so much in common. We shared similar lives and now Bree found herself praying that we wouldn't share a similar fate." How come Bree was »

ABC Scoop: "Gcb" Banks On The Gays, Max's New Romance on "Happy Endings" and Dawson's Gay Assistant

ABC had a strong showing on its television schedule this fall with new hits like Revenge, Once Upon A Time and Suburgatory, but they also had their share of missteps with Charlie’s Angels and Pan Am, which is bound for the cancellation block. However, the new offerings this spring such as Gcb, the sitcom Don’t Trust The B---- in Apartment 23, and heavier dramas The River and Shonda Rhimes’ new series Scandal.
AfterElton was there at the panels and ABC’s end-of-day party to chat with the stars and creative forces behind some of our favorites and the soon-to-be-favorites.
If Gcb star Kristen Chenoweth brings her gay following to the show, it could be a hit!

'Desperate Housewives' creator: 'I'm never sending these gals to Dubai'

The beginning of the end for Desperate Housewives officially began today in Pasadena, as the five female stars – and three of their men — met with the nation’s critics for the last time.
No one gave up many set secrets; in fact, it took Teri Hatcher (Susan) at least 30 minutes before she chimed in on the conversation. But then, it turned out to be rather hard to reflect on a series that is still on the air.
“It’s like having the funeral before you die!” exclaimed Felicity Huffman (Lynette), who was joined on the panel by creator Marc Cherry, »

Gaby's stepfather returned to terrorize her again until Carlos stopped him, permanently. Yes there was the dinner party."
