Gabby gets promoted to the Head of VIP Sales at her department store and instantly starts arriving home late with expensive gifts to appease Carlos. Lynette isn't the only person to receive a job offer in the finale. It would have been nice for her to have been more than a plot device. Katherine on the other hand was a major character for almost two seasons. While Mary Alice and Martha Huber admittedly made a brief appearance too, it seemed suitable given that neither really had a huge on-screen presence. It has to be said that Dana Delany's guest appearance is probably the most disappointing thing about the finale. Katherine tells her to consider the offer and disappears. The only problem is that Lynette's just got back with Tom and now wouldn't be the right time to uproot the family. Katherine later explains to Lynette that she wants her to head the US division of the company in New York. Instead of collapsing into herself, as viewers may remember she has a tendency to do after break-ups, Katherine devoted herself to work and launched a successful frozen pastry business, which she now wants Lynette to be a part of. It's explained that Katherine broke up with her lesbian lover Robin shortly after they fled to Paris in season six when she realised that she is actually straight. It's a reminder of how action-packed Desperate Housewives can be, a segue into this relatively low-key farewell.īack in the present day, Susan finally ends tells the ladies about her plan to move away when another familiar face makes her return - Katherine Mayfair. The following rapid-fire sequence of the most memorable moments of Desperate Housewives, cut between a shot of Mary Alice raising a gun to her head and another of her firing, is the first clue that the finale is not trying to top those extravagant plots of the past. It doesn't take long for Mrs Huber to realise that her new neighbour is hiding a secret, and as Mary Alice explains that marked "the beginning of the end". She is greeted by Martha Huber, who is every bit as snoopy and rage-inducing as I remember. The finale begins, as many expected it would, with a look back at Mary Alice Young's arrival on Wisteria Lane. In terms of story, the last hour of Marc Cherry's beloved show is certainly lightweight. She also has a contract with L'Oreal and has been named one of the most beautiful people.If you were hoping to see the ladies of Wisteria Lane bow out on an explosion, a murder, a divorce or some other form of disaster like we've come to expect over the years, then you'll be disappointed by the Desperate Housewives finale.
