''Desperately Devoted''

iHeartPodcasts has debuted a new series titled "Desperately Devoted," hosted by Desperate Housewives star Teri Hatcher, her on-screen daughter Andrea Bowen, and her real-life daughter Emerson Tenney. The podcast revisits the iconic ABC drama, which premiered nearly 21 years ago, while sparking fresh conversations that connect the show's themes to today's cultural landscape.

Each week, the hosts rewatch and reflect on memorable storylines and characters from Wisteria Lane, using them as a springboard for broader discussions on topics such as relationships, women's issues, parenting, sex and identity. Hatcher and Bowen offer behind-the-scenes memories and insights from their time on the series, while Tenney-watching the show for the first time-brings a modern lens and fresh perspective.

"When I'm out and about, I'm always meeting fans who are rewatching or watching the show for the first time," said Hatcher. "So, I'm thrilled to partner with iHeartRadio on this podcast as a way to create a community for fans and to chat with my two amazing daughters about Wisteria Lane and all the life themes it inspires us to consider."

Bowen, who played Julie Mayer on the series, added, "Growing up on Desperate Housewives was a very unique and special experience and getting to revisit the show now as a 35-year-old mom-to-be will be sure to provide new perspectives, old memories and lots of interesting conversations along the way."

Tenney, a writer and podcast enthusiast, said the project combines two of her passions: "It's the combination of two things I love - the opportunity to be part of a fun and inclusive space for podcast listeners, and the chance for me to watch an iconic piece of TV history in full for the first time."

Desperately Devoted is distributed by iHeartPodcasts and is available now on the iHeartRadio app and across all major podcast platforms.
