Nicollette Sheridan talked about her shocking exit on Desperate Housewives to TV Guide Magazine and what she told is better than any episode of the show since the first season.
On who did her in: “Somebody up there really wanted her dead. I think whoever Edie represented in [Housewives creator] Marc’s life was somebody he didn’t like. And he had a very difficult time distinguishing between fact and fiction.â€Â
On the show losing its magic: “When the show started it was such a different beast. It was exciting and dangerous and funny and edgy and bizarre. It started feeling a little complacent, and that was very frustrating.â€Â
On learning of Edie’s demise: “I said, ‘OK, sayonara. It’s been a great ride. Thank you.”
So what does Marc Cherry have to say about letting his ego making a stupid decision for the show?
On choosing to cut Edie: “Edie’s already slept with most of the guys on the street and has caused about as many problems as she could.â€Â
That is so not true, now that Gale Harold is back she could totally sleep with him! (I would!) Seriously Marc Cherry needs to get over himself because Nicollette is right, the show hasn’t been good since the beginning.
And you know way to go Nicollette Sheridan for telling it like it is and not BSing what happened! I can’t wait to see what else she says in the interview in the new TV Guide Magazine that is on stands this Thursday!
Before Nicolette Sheridan was killed off on Desperate Housewives, she was a living model on the primetime soap Paper Dolls!!! Even back when she was 21 in 1984, she still had her amazing figure. I want to know her secrets to aging!!!
SOW NOTE: If you guys know of any more Before They Were Famous, please send them my way!!!
Before Nicolette Sheridan was a Martini drinking Desperate Housewife about to be killed off the show, she was serving up Martini Rosso in roller skates to a bunch of executives. Looks like even back in 1987 the then 23 year old was still a seductress.
Marc Cherry is really killing off Nicolette Sheridan on Desperate Housewives according to the National Enquirer!
When the gorgeous star leaves the show in a very special April episode, her character – devious real estate agent Edie Britt – will survive a harrowing car crash only to get zapped from a death-dealing surge from a live wire moments later, divulge sources.
"It will be one of the most bizarre character deaths in TV history," revealed a show insider.
Ironically, the demanding 45-year-old actress had been targeted for "capital punishment" by the show's producer for some time, disclosed the insider. "She's always clashed with series creator-executive producer Marc Cherry. "For some time, Marc and the writers have been planning a dramatic demise befitting Nicollette," the insider confided.
Dang that really sounds like Marc Cherry hates her, he really hates her.
For Nicollette – if you are going to die on a show, that is a good way to go! Leave them talking and remembering you!!!
Desperate Housewives' creator Marc Cherry opened up to TV Guide Magazine why he wrote off Nicollette Sheridan's Edie Britt.
"Nicollette Sheridan has immortalized Edie Britt from the first moment she stepped foot on Wisteria Lane as the deliciously seductive and strong neighbor. The creative decision to place this character in a perilous storyline was driven by the need to continue to keep the drama fresh. It has been our great pleasure to work with Nicollette – we are all going to miss her very much.”
Does anyone believe him that is really why they are letting her go? Even though they haven't been using her like she be used this season, there are a few other Housewives I would like to see go before her.
