Words out there are, "Desperate Housewives" may end after eight seasons only instead of nine like Marc Cherry wanted at the first place. ABC is looking at two-season renewal for the hit series so that the creator could avert his attention to creating a new project for the network.
According to a report by Deadline, beside eager to have a new show, ABC makes this decision based on the response from the lead actresses of "Desperate". Eva Longoria, Teri Hatcher, Marcia Cross and Felicity Huffman have deals through next season but they have yet to commit further.
"They have been approached by ABC Studios about agreeing to options for two more seasons but there has been little communication between the actresses and the studio on the matter," Deadline noted.
ABC is also reportedly working on making deals with the key writers of the show to stay for another two years. But when asked for a comment regarding the report, ABC prefers to stay mum.
Back in September 2009, it was reported that Cherry would develop a new series for ABC together with "Desperate" producer Alexandra Cunningham. As a measure, ABC has anticipated Cherry's less presence on "Desperate" by signing Bob Daily to run the day to day operation should the new project take off.
The other project that Cherry has been working on for the network would be a multi-camera comedy about two very different brothers. One is gay and the other is straight but they share a gynecological practice.

dh is probably one of the funniest shows on the box these days and now 24 is no longer available it now one of the few things i actually get excited about,don't know why they are considering cancelling the ahow as it has the potential to go on for a good few years yet just as long as you employ the correct writers

i looovve desperate houswivesplease dont stop it !!! x
No they cant get rid of the desperate housewifes!!!
I love the show, the new show they want to work on sounds really stupid
Don't just end the show because it already has 7 or 8 seasons! Make season 9 even better! I know the producers can, this show has got STYLE written all over it!
I love watching Desperate Housewives! I started watching the series in the end of December 2010 and I'm alomost done with season 7 now, and it's by the end of january! I'm hooked, but I have to say, that I think it should end at the 8th season, cause it will get boring in the long run.
Definitely keep DH going. I has to be the best and most original show ever! No one could ever get enough of the murder, affairs and baby swapping!
Love DH! Can't wait to see how it ends...please don't disappoint all your viewers!
noo.....i love to watch desperate housewives~~~the actor and actress are very awesome!!!
when is series 8 anyone know?
When desperate housewives ends I will cry! <3<3
End it at Season 8- it will get boring if you keep going. Heres an idea- make a movie of Desperate Housewives as thats what Sex And The City did!
NOOOOOOOO! Why do the very best shows get cancelled and we are forced to watch comedy that is definitely NOT in the least funny! KEEP DH PLEASE!!!!!!
Nooo. Best show on ABC. Cherry;s new show will never get those kinda ratings! Dont stop making desperate housewives
every good thing has to come to an end, seasons passby seasons go so let other new series came and i hope they capture our minds like desperate housewives
Please don't cancel it. it's my favorite show!
i love desperate housewives and i will feel soo bad once it ends.am addicted to it
There are very few shows that I watch religiously because of entertainment value. This show has the ability to make me laugh and at the same time make me think about very sensitive issues.
PLEASE DONT END DESPERATE HW'S ITS THE BEST SHOW EVER!!! :(
c`mon, the whole world is in love with desperate!
NOOOOOO! they cant do that! i love desperate!
cant wait for the next season thus season 8 and am seriously addicted with this drama if possible pls add more seasons atleast three more......
I know right? Get your facts straight people. He had a seven year plan , ABC wanted to extend it to 9. Geez is that so hard? In any event 8 seems good to me I always thought 7 was just right and he should have stuck to his original plan anyways.
Um Marc Cherry originally said he only wanted to do 7 seasons. Why does this article say he originally wanted to do 9????
