Desperate Housewives is getting ready for a brand new season and what better way to spice things up than adding some new characters and complicating the plot?
And what better way to complicate the plot than by adding Wisteria Lane’s first gay couple? According to Hollywood Reporter, Tuc Watkins and Kevin Rahm have signed for recurring roles on the popular show.
There were some rumors, funny, interesting to see to fruition but kind of hard to believe, that British singer Robbie Williams and soccer hero David Beckham would join the cast of “Desperate Housewives,” but it probably wasn’t meant to be.
Instead, viewers will be able to enjoy the sight of Watkins and Rahm starting September, on ABC. It would seem fans of the show will also have to wait for fall in order to find out just what the new characters are about.
What media reports have been saying is that Watkins and Rahm will be playing a couple who moved from the big city to a smaller, quieter place (or so they think). TV Guide reports that Watkins will play Bob, a “country mouse,” while Rahm is Lee, Bob’s “bitchy partner.”
It has also been said that the two new characters received their names from ABC News' Bob Woodruff and his wife Lee, who became friends with series creator Marc Cherry last spring.
Tuc Watkins has worked with ABC before, having a 1-year-long role on soap opera “One Life to Live.” He’s also played in Showtime's “Beggars and Choosers.”
Kevin Rahm is best known as a co-star on CBS' “Judging Amy.” He’s also had small roles on “CSI: NY,” “Joan of Arcadia” and “Grey’s Anatomy.”
This will be the fourth season for “Desperate Housewives.” The show had a successful debut in October 2004 and went on to receive numerous Emmy, Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild nominations, as well as several wins.
In the time elapsed since the third season ended, several cast members have had important event happen in their lives, such as Marcia Cross giving birth to twins and Eva Longoria marrying basketball player Tony Parker.
