That's why it was such a HUGE BETRAYAL for the writers to kill Mike off mere episodes before the show's finale, breaking Susan's heart (and ours along with it).
While we've never quite forgiven the show bosses for that, the actors who played the much-loved couple are making it up to us nearly ten years later.
Yep, Teri Hatcher and James Denton are once again stepping into an on-screen romance, this time for a Hallmark Channel Christmas movie.
A Kiss Before Christmas sounds like it'll have an It's a Wonderful Life sort of vibe, if the press release is anything to go by:
Real estate development executive Ethan Holt (Denton) is a married father with two teens. On Christmas Eve, Ethan is disappointed to learn he’s losing out on a promotion and laments that his “nice guy” way of doing business has held him back in his career. Thanks to some Christmas magic, Ethan’s casual wish that his life had taken a different course becomes reality. He wakes up the next morning and is shocked to find everything is different – he isn’t married to Joyce (Hatcher), he doesn’t have two teenaged kids and he’s CEO of his company. Joyce is the key to Ethan being able to reclaim his original life and the family he loves – he must convince her that their happily-ever-after is waiting for them... and he only has until Christmas Day.Sounds a bit more optimistic than the conclusion of Susan and Mike's romance, anyway. https://www.instagram.com/p/CUsoyNwPvLN/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Too soon, Teri, too soon. It'll always be too soon. Check out a teaser for the duo's reunion flick here:
