03/28 - When Bree's son gets shipped off to some sort of juvy/rehab center for his drug problems, she will offend nearly every parent in the room with a diatribe about how she's not addicted to crack, didn't raise her child in a trailer park, etc. She's on fiyah. After Paul gets his paws off Edie he'll have some serious trouble to contend with: Sister Huber is moving in for the kill (so to speak; don't freak out; not literally) on Zach befriending him, earning his confidence, and then revealing a truth to him (and us!) that is truly shocking.

03/21 - We already know Dana. One of the kids is heading to juvy .... and his mother will cause QUITE the scene there, offending nearly every other parent in the room. Source: Kristin on E!Online

03/21 - "Don't worry," Marc Cherry told Inside Bay Area . "We'll wrap up the murder mystery and you'll know who Mike Delfino really is by the end of the season."

03/19 - New character Tug is a teen at a rehab boot camp. He's there because one of the wives turns him in when his buddies ask her to buy beer for them. Source: FilmJerk.com

03/19 - A Desperate Housewives special will air prior to the finale. The special is designed to help new viewers catch up on the series' sometimes dense mythology as well as act as a refresher course for regular fans. This said installment will feature the Mary Alice character (Brenda Strong) as she gives a tour of Wisteria Lane and its residents. It's understood the special will air at 8:00/7:00c as a lead-in to the show's season finale (tentatively scheduled for May 22). The Metropolitan/Hodder Group is producing the "Lost" hour while Lynne Lussier Productions is behind the "Housewives" special, both which are likely to be included on the upcoming DVD sets of their respective series.

03/15 - Mark Moses, who plays the creepy Paul Young, was feeling studly: "One of the desperate housewives throws themselves at me. Other than me, like, throwing a desperate housewife in a ditch or something, they're throwing themselves at me , so that's pretty exciting." Will there be a baby born on Wisteria Lane? Rumors are flying that one of the housewives may be with child! I'm actually going with Gabrielle. Also, We're going to see Andrew struggle with coming out, and Bree will not make it any easier for him. And we haven't seen the last of Mama Solis! She'll be back before the season ends, and you know what that means: Gabrielle is in deep doo-doo.Source: Kristin on E!Online

03/08 - The new neighbors are a family that might get mixed up in the mystery and an eligible bachelor appears just in time to stir things up. I also hear there's an interesting twist with a domestic-abuse storyline involving Susan's family. Mrs. Huber's sister is starting to grow closer to Zach, who is becoming ever more skeptical of his father's stories, especially when the thing in the trunk is not what he said it was. And when the sistah-friend drops a bomb on Zach regarding Dana, he might never be the same.Source: Kristin on E!Online

03/04 - Screw you plumber! Desperate Housewives gets a new single man on the block. He's a construction worker named Bill. Source: FilmJerk.com

03/01 - Bree will not be opening her arms to Andrew and saying it's OK. Also, more Mary Alice flashback scenes as they work towards unraveling the mystery by the season ender. "Felicia's (Mrs. Hubers sister, played by Harriet Sansom Harris) relationship with Zach starts to become very, very interesting and we start to find out how much Felicia has to do with the mystery... and she figures into it far more prominently than anyone could possibly imagine." Jamie Denton said "Mike and Susan have big problems. The next few episodes are great as Mike kinda tries to win Susan back, without a whole lotta success... and sort of has to try to win the audience back... He keeps trying to tell her why he's on Wisteria Lane and she keeps saying 'I don't wanna hear it!' and I think it's gonna be frustrating for the viewers because they're ready for him to spill the beans."Source: Kristin on E!Online

02/14 - They break up because he gets pegged for Mrs. Huber, he decides to come clean and writes her a letter telling her EVERYTHING about why he’s on Wysteria Lane. He knocks on her door, she doesn’t answer, so he slides it under the door. Meanwhile, Susan and Edie are fighting over a new man in town and they get into an accident which is Susan’s fault. Edie comes over to give Susan a bill for the accident, and you’ll NEVER GUESS what she finds! Trust me, you’ll be pulling out your hair on this one. Bree’s son won’t be around much longer … he’s getting sent off to camp for juvenile delinquents after getting caught smoking pot. Zach's relationship with Julie isn't all it's cracked up to be. Look for a fallout between those two. AND, his daddy will be smooching someone very soon.Source: Kristin on E!Online

02/13 - Mark Moses (Paul) just shot his first kissing scene — the genesis of a possible romance set to hatch in early March. [...] But there seems little hope of a happy ending for the oddball Youngs. And the same might be true for at least one of their portrayers. Considering Paul's violent streak, how long can Moses remain part of the cast before his character is stopped? Cherry says he expects to bring all three Youngs back next season — and Strong is contracted to be both heard and seen throughout the series' anticipated seven-year run. [...] And beginning this spring, flashbacks of Mary Alice will begin airing as the mystery reaches its shocking season-ending climax.

01/29 - Tom's big secret: Don't worry, I won't spoil it for you, but I will give you a hint: The original plan, assuming they go through with it, is something so jaw-droppingly major, you will soil yourself. It plays into the fact that he's never home, and it's far more troublesome and life-altering than a simple affair. And again, Tom is not gay.Source: Kristin on E!Online

01/26 - "The audience will come to learn that Edie's son lives with his father," exec producer Marc Cherry tells me. "He will be a small child. That'll be a very interesting device we plan to use." Source: Ask Ausiello @ TVGuide

01/16 - It does sound like Mike Delfino is up to some shadiness when it comes to Susan (Teri Hatcher). "Mike has other intentions with her," Jamie says. "In the weeks to come, we're going to dimensionalize Edie a bit more. We're going to spend time exploring her past and her relationship with Susan. Also, things are going to get weirder and stranger in Bree and Rex's relationship." says writer Kevin Murphy. The majority of Wisteria mysteries will be solved by spring.Source: Kristin on E!Online

12/28 - Gabrielle and John continue their affair. Carlos will find out and take "drastic" actions. Bree will find out more about Rex' secrets and Lynette finds out some of Tom's "activities".
