NEWS: Last Season For DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES? Strong Ratings For TORCHWOOD, Burnett/Hapka

Is This the End for DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES?
Creator Marc Cherry and executive producer Bob Daily are both signed to remain with the series through the season, as well as a potential ninth season. But rumblings have started that the producers and network may decide to go out with a bang this year rather than stretch things. Nothing's been decided yet, but ABC knows the question will be a key one when the network meets with reporters on August 7 at the Television Critics Association's summer press tour. That's why some insiders believe a decision could be made by then.

Others, however, think ABC may wait until September to see how its new shows perform, and if DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES sees another ratings drop. "It's all dependent on the ratings," says one insider. "It will be up against some stiff competition."
