Will Carlos and Gaby's goodbye kiss be their last? Ricardo Antonio Chavira and Eva Longoria by Ron Tom/ABC
Episode Recap: "Art Isn't Easy"Blackmail is what Wisteria Lane does best — that, and having affairs. So Bob and Lee should fit in nicely. At first, I thought the fountain-art incident was merely a comical plot device to get the veteran neighbors buzzing about the new ones. But its jarring presence next to neatly groomed gardens and white picket fences set in motion several more interesting developments.

Eva Longoria and Jesse Metcalfe by Craig Sjodin/ABC
James Denton isn’t likely to be the only guy doing shameless shirtless scenes on Desperate Housewives this season. Jesse Metcalfe, who plays Gabrielle’s hunky lawn boy and lover John, will return to the show in the fourth episode. And John’s on a mission: He confesses to Gabby (Eva Longoria) that his marriage is a sham and he wants her back. Meanwhile, Gabby and Victor (John Slattery) aren’t in newlywed bliss — she’s even still seeing Carlos (Ricardo Antonio Chavira) on the side.

Is it sadder that another celeb has checked into rehab or that the tabs didn't even care enough to report on his drinking problem to begin with? Debate amongst yourselves while I type up this item about Jesse Metcalfe. The onetime Desperate Housewives bush-wacker has checked himself into rehab for alcohol abuse this week, the New York Post reports. I thought he was looking a little more puff than buff in John Tucker Must Die. Thursday's Today's News was written by Ben Katner.
