The Writer's Strike Is Going To Put Some Roadblocks Up On Wisteria Lane

Ok, Julia Louis-Dreyfuss and Wanda Sykes don't act on Wisteria Lane, but these hot babes are standing up for the Writer's Guild of America's rights! Rights that mean I'm not gonna find out what Dana Delaney's goddamnn secret is! Thanks, Writer's Guild of America! Thanks for nothing! Wah, we need better dental cuz' my teeth are rotting and turning black. Whatever! Desperate Housewives' creator Marc Cherry says production has completely halted on the popular ABC dramedy. Yeah, I used "dramedy", whatever - it was handy.

Marc Cherry admits he and his writing team have honored their fellow Writers Guild of America members and come out on strike--and that could mean a very early end to the current season of the show.

He says, "We've shut down and that's it--until it's all over."

Cherry admits the writing team has only completed work on nine episodes, and they'll run out in the next month.


Marc spoke from the picket line. Apparently, there's an upcoming episode where a tornado hits Wisteria Lane and some characters are going to eat it. And we're not going to find out who died exactly for awhile! Look, you don't need medical AND vision, writers! Just eat a lot of carrots and get back to work!
