Paul Lee said in this statement that ABC put out yesterday to what I can only imagine were swaves of hardcore Desperate Housewives fans that would have only been left mourning this sad news of the show ending after 6yrs on ABCs' channel as I was amazed to see in this article that this series along with Lost turned the channels fortunes around. This series will be available to watch from May 2012 on ABC.
Anyhew...Paul Lee said in this statement that he wanted to make sure that "...the show that put the network on the map had its victory lap and had a chance to build a great final arc...". The writer of this series which I have to admit I don't really sit down like many of the hardcore fans of the show and watch it but when I have managed to catch some reruns of past episodes or even present episodes of the show I get hooked in, and I do have to say that some of the story lines like what happened to Mary Alice who narrates the show was edge of the seat stuff, it did keep me gripped.
Marc Cherry who created the series later joined in on this statement saying that he'd been thinking about ending this long running show but he wanted to go out in "...classiest way possible....", and that he wanted to go out "...while the network thought it was a viable series and while it still did well in the ratings...". That to my mind is a good thought process as other series's who have ended their long running stints on the box haven't gone out very well I don't think, like the end of Sex and the City everyone found out what Big's real name but apart from that it wasn't really that good.
Anyhow, all that ABC entertainment are saying on how this series will end is that "mystery of what’s going on in the final season harkens back to the first season," to "the roots of the Mary Alice mystery."
