Just because Nicollette Sheridan is saying bye-bye to Desperate Housewives, that may not mean the death of Edie.

"I do know, but I can't tell you that," Housewives' Dana Delaney told us recently when we asked if Edie will kick the Wisteria Lane bucket. "You know, things change very quickly on the show. People dead doesn't mean dead on television."

Delaney politely declined to elaborate on her curious remarks, but she did offer plans on how best to say adios to Sheridan.

"I think there should be a party," Delaney said. "But I think it should just be all the girls going out—just all girls."

But what about the show's creator, Marc Cherry?

"No, I think it should be just be all the girls," Delaney said, but quickly added, "Well, Marc could come…if he wants."

So, what do you think: Should Edie be killed off, and what kind of sendoff should Nicollette be getting?
