Film bosses announced the eigth series will be the show's last only last month, with executive producer Marc Cherry revealing he wanted the show to go out on top.

'The only thing harder than creating a hit television show is knowing when to end it,' he reveled of his decision.

'Because I have been working in television for 23 years, I am very aware of people overstaying their welcome.'

'I wanted to go out when the network still saw us as a viable show and doing well in ratings,' the emotional show boss said, adding that the cast were already aware of the decision.'

Later in the day Eva Longoria reiterated the news on Twitter, telling followers: 'It's confirmed! We are filming our last season of Desperate Housewives!

'I am so grateful for what the show has given me! We always knew we wanted to end on top and I thank ABC for giving us our victory lap!

'And a special thanks to Marc Cherry who forever changed my life!'
