  • Upcoming Disney chief executive Robert Iger believes the success of Desperate Housewives and Lost helped him land his new position. "Because my association with ABC dates back over 30 years, for better or for worse, the perception created by ABC had a profound effect on me. So, I actually believe that, I don't know for certain, that the turn around did have an impact on the board giving me the position."

  • Marcia Cross (Bree Van De Kamp) was tempted to appear on broadway. "I thought a lot about it this summer, but I was so tired and really needed a rest," she said.

  • James Denton (Mike Delfino) and Ricardo Antonio Chavira (Carlos Solis) have called upon Americans to wear denim to work on October 7 in exchange for a $5 donation to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.

  • There are new pictures of Jesse Metcalfe (John Rowland) attending The Longest Yard at JesseMetcalfe.net, and miscellaneous new pictures of Teri Hatcher (Susan Mayer) at Teri Hatcher Website.

  • ABC's re-run of Desperate Housewives last week once again gave the network a second place position behind Fox.

  • CTV, which broadcasts Desperate Housewives in Canada, is preparing its fall line up, and has acquired the rights to many new US shows. Ricardo Antonio Chavira and Andrew Bowen (Julie Mayer) attended a CTV party to celebrate the network's presentation to advertisers.

  • Seven may be losing in the overall ratings battle against competitor Nine, but its Desperate Housewives is still the highest rated show in Australia with 2.1m viewers.

  • Steve Spielberg is pleased that actors get more attention than him. "Here I have the chance of being in a line, waiting to see a movie, when there'll be some other person who's a big TV star. People will see me and say, 'Oh, forget about Spielberg—there's somebody from Desperate Housewives,' and go running over to her."

  • TV Guide's Matt Roush has answered questions about Desperate Housewives, including about Marcia Cross's emmy chances and how "hybrid" shows of comedy and drama fare at the Emmys.

  • The MPAA is continuing its fight against sites that share TV online, many of which offer Desperate Housewives.
