Nicollette Sheridan Leaving “Desperate Housewives”
Its the end for Edie Britt. Reliable sources on the set of Wisteria Lane say that a script has just been circulated for rehearsal that includes the demise of Nicollette Sheridans’ character from “Desperate Housewives.” Is she leaving the show by her own will, or did all those special requests finally cost Nicollette her job? ABC has confirmed to E! News that Sheridan will indeed be leaving the show.
Per E! Online:
“Nicollette had a great time on the show and is looking forward to her next project.” says her rep. “Her final episode doesn’t air until April.”
Not until April? Aw crap - I hoped we’d be rid of her sooner! Fans might remember that the blond bombshell, Edie, has been nearly axed from the show not once but twice before. Two seasons ago, Edie tried to hang herself when Carlos left her for Gabrielle, and at the end of last season she left town after her plan to blackmail Bree backfired and she was blackballed by the women on Wisteria Lane. But Edie came back both times. This time will be different. So just what are they planning for her exit? Edie finds out her husband has plans to kill her, and almost does. She runs out of the house but ends up getting in an accident, something involving her car and an electrical wire. No word yet on who will sleep with every husband on Wisteria Lane now.
Hmmm…. sounds interesting, if done right. But is that really enough for the housewife who doesn’t know how to keep her mouth shut - on or off camera. How much do you think this will affect the show’s popularity? Nicollette Sheridan has never been my favorite on any level. Maybe David Spade can offer you a boney shoulder to cry on. I sure won’ t miss her.
