As one of the first shows to return from its holiday hiatus, Desperate Housewives will also air one of the most powerful, unusual episodes in January.

On Sunday, the series picks up immediately after the plane crash that rocked Wisteria Lane and left a couple characters dead. Viewers will learn just who has left the iconic street for good, while also glimpsing the imagined future of a few housewives.

Check out the official ABC promo for "If ..." below and get excited for the return of the show:
