Which Major Desperate Housewives Character Will Die? The 8 Potential Victims

Desperate Housewives doesn't wrap its eight-year run until May, but the grim reaper will be paying an early visit in March when a "major character" will die. As first reported by Entertainment Weekly, the passing will be "pivotal" to the rest of the season.

So which character is being laid to rest? We weigh the pros and cons for killing off each of the housewives and their house husbands in order from most likely to eat it to least:

1. Mike (James Denton)
Why He Will Die: Producers haven't really known what to do with Mike in recent years so death would finally give him purpose and send Susan on an intriguing new path. And it makes narrative sense, too: Mike made himself known to the bad guys when he convinced Ben not to borrow...read more

Desperate Housewives' James Denton: It's Fun Going Back to Mike's Darker, More Dangerous Side

For most ex-cons, becoming an accessory to murder wouldn't be something to celebrate. But for Mike Delfino (James Denton) on Desperate Housewives, learning that Susan had helped Carlos cover up killing Gaby's stepfather was, oddly, a huge sigh of relief.

"It was good news for him. Obviously, it's a little bit disturbing because of what happened, but I think the worst news for him would have been the affair he was convinced Susan and Carlos were having," Denton tells TVGuide.com. "I think he was more relieved than anything."

Desperate Housewives' Final Season: Which Couples Are Heating Up? Which Are Falling Apart?

The four that started it all are coming back together for the final season of Desperate Housewives. But instead of a Wisteria Lane block party, it's a dead body that will pull Susan, Lynette, Bree and Gaby into each other's lives in Season 8. "We're bonded together by this secret, and that really tests all of our friendships, but it also brings us closer together," Eva Longoria tells TVGuide.com. "Every episode is a roller coaster: one minute, we're mad at each other and then we're not mad at each other. One minute, we're together and we're the four musketeers, and then we're not."

Will Gaby and Carlos be able to handle the pressure? Will Bree be able to keep the murder hidden from her detective boyfriend? Is there still hope for Lynette and... read more

It would be nice to know if we had a Season 8," Desperate Housewives star James Denton (Mike Delfino) told TV Guide Magazine at Thursday's Lupus LA Orange Ball, where he was performing with Band from TV and co-star Teri Hatcher. "We're all kind of on pins and needles."
