Wisteria Lane - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

(got this from the LnC boards)

Quickly becoming recognized as America's most well known suburban street, this aerial view shows Wisteria Lane, the setting for the hit television show "Desperate Housewives." The quiet street is actually atop a hill on a backlot at the world famous Universal Studios in Hollywood,Ca. Pictured is the home of character Susan Mayer played by Teri Hatcher.

Susan's House

Gabby's House

Lynnette's House

Bree's House (and was the house used for "Leave it to Beaver")

Mike's House

Mary Alice's House

Mrs. Huber's House

Pictured is the home of "The Munsters" in the 60's sitcom which producers try to keep out of shot as it is easily recognized.

I think that when I last went to L.A. in 1999, they gave us a tour of this street at the Universal backlot. I wonder if they still show it now, lol?

Oprah bought the Munster house in that spoof, lol.

James"Thunder"Early · 02-08-2005, 11:24 PM

I heard one of these houses is also The Cleavers from Leave it to Beaver.

Bree's... (Lola Dane mentioned it in her post, too)

TJ · 02-08-2005, 11:28 PM

It is not the original Leave it to Beaver house, but one they rebuilt for the 1997 theatrical movie.

THANKS A LOT FOR POSTING THOSE, LOLA!!!

I am so happy because, my little 'drawing' of Wistera Lane that I posted a few months ago actually MATCHES that!

But where's Edie's crib...er...house?

Thanks TJ I wasn't aware of that, they said on Access Hollywood a couple weeks ago, that Bree's house was the one used in the original series, I guess they didn't do their homework

Pitooey · 02-09-2005, 10:24 PM

I really like those pictures, Thanks for sharing them. Those houses don't look too shabby huh?

I did hear the same thing that Bree's house was the original Beaver Cleaver house. I heard it on Oprah. Oh well.......... It looks good.

EvaL · 02-10-2005, 08:13 PM

I had seen that "map" of Wisteria lane, very interesting.

USTVFanFromUK · 02-12-2005, 11:47 PM

Hell, I wished I lived in a neighbourhood like that. lol

Mark B. · 02-17-2005, 10:29 AM

Actually, Mary Alice's House is the one in the above pictures that is the "Leave it to Beaver" house. And as TJ pointed out, it is not the one from the original TV series- it was built for the 1997 theatrical movie. Its quite different from the house in the original series, but has similar features (3 dormer windows, etc.)

Very nice pictures by the way! I have been dying to see some comprehensive pics of Colonial Street since the DH re-dress!

How cool! Thanks for those.

When is The Oprah episode going to air? Will it only be seen on The Oprah show, or on the real one.
Thanks
