Desperate Housewives: Time-Traveling to the '60s?

Desperate Housewives

Marc Cherry, the mastermind behind Desperate Housewives, is toying with the idea of a prequel that would transport us back to Wisteria Lane in 1966.


Imagine Susan, Lynette, Bree, and Gabrielle navigating the era of miniskirts and beehive hairdos. Except, plot twist: they wouldn't be there. Why? Because in the '60s, our beloved housewives would either be in diapers or not born yet.


So, who exactly would be stirring the suburban pot? New characters? Their mothers? The milkman? The possibilities are as endless as a '60s soap opera storyline.


Marc Cherry admits he still dreams of Wisteria Lane, calling it "the most fun playground anyone in the history of television has ever had." Translation: where else can you write about murderous soccer moms, cheating husbands, and endless neighborhood drama, and still get Emmys for it?


Meanwhile, Eva Longoria is practically slipping notes under his door begging for a reboot. "I miss Wisteria Lane. I miss the girls. I miss Gaby Solis. I miss being her," she gushed. In other words, Gabrielle's high heels and high-maintenance attitude might be living rent-free in her head.


But Cherry isn't rushing back to the lane just yet. He insists he needs a “compelling reason” to revisit the iconic cul-de-sac.


Because, apparently, nostalgia, fan demand, and the chance to watch Eva sashay in a designer dress again just aren't compelling enough.
