Fans who are craving episodes of Devious Maids no longer need to wait until the show's third season debuts next summer.

Could Carmen Be Pregnant On Season 3?

According to Variety, Hulu has struck a licensing agreement with Disney-ABC that gives the online service exclusive rights to all past episodes of the Lifetime series, in addition to several other popular shows, including Resurrection, Mistresses, Alias, Army Wives, Body of Proof and Melissa and Joey.

The deal allows fans of the show who subscribe to Hulu Plus to access all episodes from the first season, with season two episodes debuting ahead of the season three premiere.

The news is great for fans of the show, who until recently weren't even sure if the show would be back for a third season at all. Season two ended on a major cliffhanger in July, but Lifetime didn't announce plans to renew the series until September, leaving fans unsure of what would happen with the show for months.

To make things worse, even the cast appeared clueless about what the show's status was at the time, saying in interviews that they hadn't heard anything yet.

Edy Ganem, who portrays Valentina on the series, told Examiner.com in July that she hoped the show would be back because the cliffhanger made things look as though her character may have been shot-and she wanted to know what her actual fate was.

"You can't end it like that. So third season, please! I don't want to die!" she said at the time.

Ana Ortiz, who plays Marisol, also spoke about the show in August and said she hadn't heard anything but knew fans definitely wanted to see the show return.

'Lots of talks but we still haven't heard officially, but we have high hopes," she  told WPIX 11 at the time. "I mean the fans really want it, so we'll see."

No premiere date has been set for the show's third season.
