ABC confirmed during a press release on Sunday that Desperate Housewives Season 8 will be the last for the lovely ladies on Wisteria Lane.
Network president Paul Lee said: “It is an iconic show. We are so proud of it. After seven successful seasons, I just want to make sure that this show has its victory lap.”
The star-studded cast includes Teri Hatcher, Felicity Huffman, Marcia Cross, Eva Longoria, and Vanessa Williams.
Lee remarked: “Season 8 will roll out in such a way that even viewers who may have lapsed in their viewing will easily be able to pick up the action.”
Here is what we know about the new story arc: Gaby, Susan, Bree and Lynette grapple with the cover-up of the murder of Gaby’s evil stepdad at the hand of her ex Carlos. Susan withdraws while the marriage of Lynette and Tom falls apart.
The premiere will air on September 25, 2011.
