Behind the facade of a picture-perfect suburban neighborhood live four housewives whose lives are anything but picture-perfect. On ABC’s Desperate Housewives, housewife Bree Van de Kamp (Marcia Cross), ex-model Gabrielle Solis (Eva Longoria), single mother Susan Mayer (Teri Hatcher) and businesswoman Lynette Scavo (Felicity Huffman) find themselves at the center of a disturbing mystery when their friend and neighbor Mary Alice (Brenda Strong) unexpectedly commits suicide.
