All good things eventually come to an end, and in the final season, the stakes are at an all-time high. Winner of both the 2005 and 2006 Golden Globe Awards for Best Television Series -- Musical or Comedy – “Desperate Housewives” is a primetime soap with a truly contemporary take on “happily ever after.” The series, which takes a darkly comedic look at suburbia -- where the secret lives of housewives aren’t always what they seem -- began with Mary Alice Young inside her perfect house, in the loveliest of suburbs, taking her own life. Commenting from her elevated point of view, she took us into the lives of her family, friends and neighbors.
