Desperate Housewives - SERIES FINALE

So sad, really so sad. This two hour series finale does not do this show justice after 8 years with these girls. Let's begin shall we?

Part I: The Trial

Karen is off to hospice care. The girls all pitch in to take turns watching her so she can die at home. She is forever grateful for this. Bree's trial is under way and Ben is taking the stand. He refuses to answer so he gets put into jail. Renee goes to visit him and the DA learns that she saw Bree with a shovel that night. They put her on the stand and the evidence is now really incriminating. They then put Gaby on the stand after she begged him not to. We learn that Ramon was really her step father. Karen comes forward and admits that she saw this all and hit him over the head. They refuse to press charges since she is dying and the case is dismissed! Only problem is, Bree is furious with Trip. Tom comes to see Lynette to say he is filing the divorce papers. He thinks she has a new boyfriend. Tom goes to see Roy and he tells him to say these things while people are alive. He then tells Lynette he loves her and she loves him back and they are finally together again!!! HOORAY.

Part II: The wedding

Katherine has returned to Wisteria lane and she wants to offer Lynette a job to run the US side of her frozen food company. She has tons of money and rubs it all in their faces. She is toying with the idea, but its in NY and her Tom just got back together.

Renee is super bridezilla, so on the way to the wedding, Julie's water breaks. She makes them stop at Gaby's store (which she just became VP of sales) and get a new dress, which they steal and run out on the security guys. Susan thinks Julie's OB is hitting on her and tries to set them up.

We have a musical montage of the birth, the death of Karen and the wedding simultaneously.

Julie gives birth and the grandparents are super happy. Karen passes away listening to the song "Wonderful" on repeat. The wedding goes on and everyone is there. Trip is with Bree and Carlos with Gaby. We are all smiling and happy and I am sad and nostalgic.

We then cut to four years later on how they all turned out

Bree is running for office with Trip by her side
Carlos and Gaby are running a personal shopping web site
Lynette and Tom move to NY and have a huge penthouse and tons of grandkids
Susan is leaving her house and sees the woman who is moving in who has new secrets of her own.

As she drives away we see all the ghosts of Wisteria Lane. We see Mike, the crazy pharmacists, Martha Huber, the woman who gave her liver to Susan, Carlos's mother, the cop, its just beautiful and of course Mary Alice at the end.

I cant believe they are gone, but happy the way ABC did homage to my favorite girls
