'Desperate Housewives' spinoff planned?
Two Desperate Housewives stars are reportedly in talks for their own series.

According to What's On TV, Kathryn Joosten and Lily Tomlin, who play elderly sisters Karen and Roberta McCluskey, have been approached by ABC for a spinoff from the show.

A source claimed that the network is currently working on getting Housewives creator Marc Cherry on board, saying: "Cherry clearly knows how to write for these two actresses. And we would love to have him involved."

It is rumoured that the show would be similar in format to Golden Girls, which Cherry worked on in the 1990s.
