First Published: January 10, 2012 9:15 PM EST Credit: ABC Caption Marc Cherry with the cast of his show, Desperate Housewives on stage at the Television Critics Association Winter Session 2012, Pasadena, January 10, 2012LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Desperate Housewives ends its run on ABC at the end of its current season, but dont expect the ladies of Wisteria Lane to take a vacation together in a big screen installment of the franchise. Im just never sending these gals to Dubai, Desperate Housewives creator and executive producer Marc Cherry said on Tuesday at the Television Critics Association Winter Session in Pasadena on Tuesday, referring to Sex and The City 2. Cherry said that while hes actually congratulated SATC boss Michael Patrick King on the HBO series leap to the big screen, he knows his show is different and wont follow that path. Sex and The City only did a total of, I think, 69 episodes, so I always thought that the advantage for them was that they hadnt really plumbed the depths of those characters, Cherry said. After eight years, boy, I think were done. And Im happy about that. Thats not a bad thing. I feel very satisfied with where we are. Cherry said he knows what the ending of Desperate Housewives is, but declined to give any hints. He also refused to address his comments at the last TCA session, several months ago, that he wanted to pay homage to everyone whos been there which would include Nicollette Sheridans Edie Britt. Im sooooo not revealing what the end is gonna be, Cherry said. Its a surprise and Im being hyper protective of it. No comment on that. The show boss did reveal that they will bring back Susan Delphinos (Teri Hatcher) daughter Julie (Andrea Bowen), and that Cherry, himself, will appear in an upcoming episode before the show is over. Yeah, Im gonna do a Hitchcock, he said, referring to when the boss walks through a scene. And the hair and makeup people will go through more hell that day than theyve ever gone through. The cast, who were all present at the panel, said they are still surprised by the affect their show has had on fashion, culture and even television. All the Real Housewives shows, Eva Longoria (Gabrielle Solis) said when asked for an example of the things theyve seen as a result of the shows influence. I want a residual, Cherry chimed in, referring to the Bravo franchise. Desperate Housewives airs Sundays at 9 PM EST/PST on ABC. Copyright 2012 by NBC Universal, Inc. All rights reserved.
