Negative Comments:
- - Like Season 7, The DVD Packaging is just a single plastic case (Unlike Seasons 1 through 6) and their is also no episode list inside the case. The disc design is plain and grey (Like Season 7) and their is no change to the disc menu’s – Overall, Cheap and Lazy packaging and Design from Disney!
- - To say it is the final Season their is a distinct Lack of Bonus Features …. The best bonus feature is probably the “I Guess this is Goodbye” Featurette.

Description:
It’s the final, climactic season of the iconic series that redefined life in the suburbs – ABC’s Desperate Housewives! The stakes are higher than ever as the world’s most celebrated housewives are united by their involvement in the slaying of Gaby’s loathsome stepfather. The desperation mounts when Bree receives an anonymous “I know what you did” message worded identically to Mary Alice’s fateful note. Meanwhile, Renée tries to spark up some romance with hot new Aussie neighbor Ben, Lynette and Tom navigate the rough waters of their separation and Susan jumps headfirst into a “relationship” with a volatile art professor who is determined to draw out her wilder side. Ultimately, the suspense builds to a fever pitch when Bree is arrested and tried for murder! Mysteries will be solved, and loyalties are tested as the excitement soars to all-time heights. Kiss the ladies of Wisteria Lane goodbye and complete your collection with this thrilling 5-disc set, featuring all 23 wickedly entertaining episodes and exclusive, never-before-seen bonus features!
