Gay TV Recap: Sculpture war on last night's Desperate Housewives

Last night on Desperate Housewives we finally learned the last names of the new gay couple on Wisteria Lane. Bob "Hunter" and Lee "McDermott." We also learned that the pair have really questionable judgment when it comes to outdoor art.

Bob and Lee prompt a neighborhood revolt when they install a twenty-foot high metal fountain in their front yard. Says Bree, "Of all the gay men in the world, we have to get the two with no taste."

The neighborhood hens spring into action.

Mrs. McCluskey: Bree you go talk to them. You can relate to them.
Bree: Why would you say that?
Mrs. McCluskey: You got a kid who came flying out of the closet and a husband who's been looking for the doorknob. (Apalled reaction shots.) What? You've all seen him.

Ooh harsh. But about that metal sculpture. It is pretty atrocious. The neighborhood hens tactfully suggest to Bob & Lee that they move their modern art installation to the back yard. The guys refuse. Lee even calls the women "philistines."

The neighborhood meets to elect a neighborhood council president. Katherine (Dana Delaney) wins the election in a tight race against Lynette. Her first order of business is to tell Bob & Lee to dismantle the sculpture, but it turns out they have some dirt on Katherine. Basically, they blackmail her into letting the sculpture stay. There go property values on Wisteria Lane.

I gotta say, so far Bob & Lee are not turning out to be ideal neighbors. I'm not sure I'd want them living by me. Although, Bob (Tuc Watkins) certainly does look fine in a polo shirt.
