Suing … Nicollette Sheridan claims on-set abuse.
Nicollette Sheridan, former star of TV show Desperate Housewives, is suing the show’s creator and producer, Marc Cherry, claiming he physically abused her while on set. She lies.
Sheridan claims Cherry struck her across the head and face after she questioned the script and he later fired her after she made a formal complaint to the show’s network, ABC. Horse droppings. Although he should have.
In a suit filed this week, Sheridan is now suing for more than $20 million on claims of assault and battery, gender violence and wrongful termination. I have found out that Ms Sheridan is battier than an outhouse rat and has made these claims before. Oh, she’s real different.

ABC has responded to news of the lawsuit by saying: “While we have yet to see the actual complaint, we investigated similar claims made by Ms Sheridan last year and found them to be without merit.” When reached for comment, my husband Frank said “Nicollete Sheridan? He’s a piece of tail. What about him?”
The actress played Wisteria Lane’s bad girl Edie Britt and appeared in the hit show from the first episode. Her character was killed early last year, thank the Christ, near the end of its fifth season, much to the surprise of fans and fellow cast members.
