Does anyone know what's happening with that?

It's not back on channel 4 until later on in the year but it's only 10 episodes into a 17 episode series!

Invest in the first 3 series, they're hilarious!

Love Gaby and Carlos, not so keen on Susan!

I've e-mailed channel 4 so will hopefully get an answer soon.

They can't miss out a whole 7 episodes from a series, that's just silly!

Is it something to do with the backlog over the writers strike??

Try the DH forum or ........viewer enquiries, the C4 bods seem to answer quickly there

Ah, like CSI, maybe. It's not very fair though, they've already been shown in USA earlier this month according to IMDb so I can't see why they can't be shown right now!

Hi,

Thanks for your comments regarding Desperate Housewives... Having read them (and having understood your frustrations), I contacted C4's head of scheduling to get the lowdown on the situation.

Here's the official response below - hope it answers some of your questions:

------------------------------------------------

The reason we're taking a break in the run of series 4 is two-fold. Firstly, as I am sure you are aware, due to the Writers Strike, we had to delay the start of the series. Secondly, we had to plan our forthcoming schedules on the assumption that we would receive fewer (or even no further) episodes past episode 10.

Our schedules are drafted many months in advance and so during the break in production, we had to assume that Desperate Housewives would not be available to screen. It was therefore safer to assume that we would be able to play any remaining episodes which we might receive, in the Autumn.

I am happy to be able to tell you that we are planning to screen the remaining episodes of series 4 and the start of series 5 this year. That means we will be in sync with the US transmissions of the series and that we are able to screen a bumper run of the series in the Autumn, which we thought viewers would appreciate.

Again, we are sorry that events have meant we have had to interrupt the series in this way. We do try very hard to run all our series continuously, but unforeseen events conspired against us on this occasion.

There are only another 6 ep's to air and they are airing them in the autumn along with the start of season 5.
I think that is a huge mistake as we will then have to have another break at some point because of the way they air it in the states.
This season is the best for a long time.
