Does Susan die in desperate housewives?
Im sure im not the only one who would stop watching the show if any of the housewifes die.

Im a massive fan and addicted to desperate housewives and even me who watches the DVD's everyday and counts the days until the next season starts would stop watching :(! Sad but TRUE!!
KEEP THEM ALL ALIVE!!!!
NO NONE OF THE MAIN FOUR CHARACTERS DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
