Eva Longoria: 'I can't imagine Housewives without Nicollette Sheridan'

Eva Longoria's 'Desperate Housewives' costars seemed to be as surprised as everyone else, after news broke that Nicollette Sheridan is moving out of Wisteria Lane.

"I love her so much as a person, and I love the character of Edie Britt, that I can't imagine the show without her," Eva Longoria Parker told Extra Thursday, the day after Sheridan's departure was confirmed.

On the ABC series, James Denton, who plays Mike Delfino, tells Usmagazine that he doesn't know what will happen to her character.

"I'm totally out of the loop on that," Denton told Us at the McDonald's NBA All-Star Celebrity Game in Phoenix on Friday. "I talked to Nicollette about it. I know they're trying to send some misdirection out there, so I'm not positive."

Will Eva Longoria be killed off?

"We're shooting an episode right now where one of the characters got shot -- and it's not Nicollette's," he tells Us.

The actor, other than that, admits he's had to go online like everyone else to find out how she might make her exit in the episodes to come.

"They're pretty secretive, but I did see something about it on the Internet, so you never know," he tells Us.
