According to EWOnline, actress Dana Delany will be making a return visit to ABC's DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES sometime before the series finale in May. 

While Delany currently stars on BODY OF PROOF, she will return as her Housewive's character, Katherine, along with former Housewive's stars Kyle MacLachlan (Orson) and Andrea Bowen (Julie) in an episode arc of the show.

This is the final season of ABC's  landmark show,which has won both the 2005 and 2006 Golden Globe Award for Best Television Series - Musical or Comedy. The show is a primetime soap with a truly contemporary take on “happily ever after.” The series, which takes a darkly comedic look at suburbia - where the secret lives of housewives aren’t always what they seem - began with Mary Alice Young inside her perfect house, in the loveliest of suburbs, taking her own life. Commenting from her elevated point of view, she took us into the lives of her family, friends and neighbors.

For Season Eight, Carlos’ murder of Gaby’s evil stepfather and the cover up by Susan, Gaby, Bree and Lynette has far-reaching effects. Feelings of guilt begin to overcome everyone in different ways. Susan starts to withdraw from her friends and family, and Gaby works to reach out to Carlos as his guilt weighs heavily on him. While Lynette and Tom are grappling with their disintegrating marriage and impending separation, Lynette is having trouble making the right choices ever since she participated in the cover-up. And Bree must be especially careful around her new love -- Detective Chuck Vance. Meanwhile, a new sexy neighbor moves to town, Ben Faulkner, and he's Renee’s first order of business.

DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES stars Teri Hatcher as Susan Mayer, Felicity Huffman as Lynette Scavo, Marcia Cross as Bree Hodge, Eva Longoria as Gabrielle Solis, Vanessa Williams as Renee Perry, Ricardo Antonio Chavira as Carlos Solis, Doug Savant as Tom Scavo, Jonathan Cake as Det. Chuck Vance, Charles Mesure as Ben Faulkner and Madison de la Garza as Juanita Solis, with Brenda Strong as Mary Alice Young and James Denton as Mike Delfino.
