Congrats to
Desperate Housewives - one of my favorite guilty pleasures and a can't-miss show every Sunday evening - for the show's Golden Globe win last night for "Best Musical or Comedy Series" and for Teri Hatcher's win for "Best Actress, Musical or Comedy." And the great news for
Desperate Housewives fans didn't stop there! More hot stuff came from backstage after the wins...about a DVD release of the show!
Backstage at the awards ceremony,
TV Guide Insider Michael Ausiello was keeping
a log (BLog?) of what was going on with the winners. At the 11:00 timeframe, Ausiello talks about getting together with the cast of
Desperate Housewives in the press room. Here's what he logged:
11:00 The entire cast of Desperate Housewives is in the press room basking in their best comedy series win. When a reporter asks which of the women has the best love life, all the gals point to Felicity Huffman. Bill Macy, you little devil!
11:10 Housewives creator/exec producer Marc Cherry says Marcia Cross initially balked at reciting the line, "Rex cries when he ejaculates."
11:11 What do Halle Berry, Kevin Spacey and Lawrence Fishburne have in common? They all admitted to being big fans of the show, Eva Longoria reveals.
11:12 The first-season Housewives DVD drops in August. Scoop!
11:12 On being named the worst dressed celeb by Mr. Blackwell, Nicollette Sheridan sasses, "I'd rather be No. 1 on the worst-dressed than No. 2 on the best-dressed. What the hell does Mr. Blackwell know anyway?"
Yes, Michael...scoop! Good job on getting it, too. Fans of the show were hoping that this would come to light, especially after hearing that another successful new ABC series,
Lost, was
said to be getting a DVD release in 2005.
This is really early info, mind you, so stay tuned and we'll update you with any developments that we hear about. Great news, though!
