", began airing on September 27, 2009. The series creator, Marc Cherry
, told Entertainment Weekly that the bride's initial identity was to be Katherine and that Susan was the one who was going to have a nervous breakdown, until viewers informed him that they would rather see Susan and Mike reconcile. Cherry explained: "I originally was going to have Mike marry Katherine, but as I went out into the world on vacation and just started talking to people they were so determined that Mike and Susan should get together; they were so insistent on it. So I started to think, 'What if I went that way?' And it occurred to me that it might be a more effective way to go as opposed to frustrating the fans for another year by keeping Mike and Susan apart. The fans demanded it in a voice so loud I was kind of scared to go against them". Cherry also hinted that the couple's marriage "plays better for this season's mystery". Cherry also said that Katherine will suffer a breakdown, adding: "And it's going to be one of the funniest breakdowns you've ever seen". Marc Cherry revealed that the sixth season mystery will pay homage to a classic Dallas
storyline. He added: "What we've planned is an interesting mystery storyline involving one of our beloved characters. It's a 'Who shot J.R.?' kind of storyline .For the mid-season cliffhanger, Marc Cherry has revealed that there will be a plane crash in season six of Desperate Housewives. The show's creator explained that the story is still in the planning stages and added that he does not yet know who will be involved in the accident. "It's going to be my cliffhanger for the first half of the season," he said, adding that it would "affect everyone's lives". However, Cherry said that none of the main characters will be killed in the crash. "I'd love to kill somebody 'cause that's just what I do," he joked. "But the truth is, right now I don't have anyone major dying. However, Cherry eventually decided to kill several characters, including a fan favorite.

Bree does her best to assist Orson, but Orson is furious with Bree and makes her life a living hell. He refuses to wash and Bree resorts to hosing him off in the yard, at which point he confesses he is upset that he has lost his independence and for the rest of his life must ask for help. Bree apologizes. Orson later considers suicide.
Bree finds herself at odds once again with her son, Andrew, who suspects her new employee, Sam Page (who claims to be Rex's illegitimate son), may be plotting against her.
In "We All Deserve to Die

When Gaby shows up at John's restaurant, (where Carlos is having his business dinner) she doesn't put any effort into her look. She tells Carlos that she has stood by him for 11 years. She stayed with him when he was poor, blind and when he "knocked her up twice." When Ana begins to fall for John, Gaby intervenes and tells John to stay away. He then tells her he was only flirting with Ana to see if she still had feelings for him. He then asks her to run off with him and kisses Gaby just as Ana walks in. She confesses her past affair with John to Ana, and the two finally mend fences as Gaby declares her love for Carlos. Gaby then answers John by sending a photo strip of them together, torn right down the middle.

Lynette allows him to hold her daughter while she calls for him.
The executive producer of Desperate Housewives, Bob Daily
, said that this season's two mysteries could be linked. He explained that further clues about the strangler plot and the Bolens' family secret will be revealed throughout the season: "We have two mysteries going on right now, which is a little different for us, we have the Bolen family that has moved in, Drea De Matteo and Jeffrey Nordling, and something they seem to be running from. We also have the mystery of the person who has strangled a couple young women in Fairview. Those two mysteries may or may not be linked to each other. As we're heading into the second half of the season, we're looking to resolving and giving more clues in both of those storylines".
The season averaged 431,975 viewers.
