Dark Secrets From Popular Tv Shows

Desperate Housewives

Inspiration can appear in many forms. Sometimes a person can see a tree and design an entire runway collection around it. A programmer may find a piece of software they like and build an entire network of systems. Even show producers can see something in the news and think that it would make quality television. The origin of Desperate Housewives is similar! When the creator of the show was watching the news one night, they came across a dark and upsetting story. A suburban mom was accused of murdering her five children. That act of desperation sparked something in show creator Marc Cheery. Shortly after that Desperate Housewives was created.
