'Desperate Housewives' To Wrap Up After Two Years?
After the horrible, horrible news that Steve Carell may be ending his Office stint after next season (and consequently, it would seem, the show itself), the fate of ABC's Desperate Housewives looks like it's already sealed too. Deadline.com is reporting that the alphabet is toying with the idea of a two-season pickup as the curtain call for the dramedy.
ABC, the source adds, has already made deals with most of Housewives' writers, while creator and showrunner Marc Cherry, embroiled as he is in a lawsuit from Nicolette Sheridan, is signed up for the next three years. His final year will be spent developing a new show once Desperate Housewives wraps, something that ABC bigwigs have been asking for quite some time now.
