Breaking News: Gay couple on "Desperate Housewives" to exchange vows...

I chatted with "Desperate Housewives" creator Marc Cherry at last night's GLAAD Awards and wanted to know all about the rumors that the show's fifth season will have the residents of Wisteria Lane jumping ahead five years in time. Another rumor is that that gay character of Andrew Van de Kamp (Shawn Pyfrom) would be living with Bob (Tuc Watkins), who is currently sharing a home with his partner Lee (Kevin Rahm).

"First of all, I don't know that there's any truth to that rumor," Marc said. "Second of all, I will never comment on future storylines. Third of all, wouldn't that be a scandalous storyline to do?!"

Then he dropped a bombshell on me: "We're having a gay commitment ceremony between Tuc and Kevin in the final episode."

What? Huh? I beg your pardon! You mean when we were all abuzz over the ceremony between Kevin and Scotty on "Brothers & Sisters," Marc was planning one for his show?

"I only found out that 'Brothers & Sisters' was doing this like a week ago," he said. "The tonality of our show is so different, I think we're doing it in a totally different way. Ours is more of a comedic backdrop to a much darker story going on at a different part of (Wisteria Lane). Even though they are gay commitment ceremonies, I think they're going to be handled completely differently."

Then I asked what seems like a silly question but with all the "As The World Turns" controversy (gay characters Luke and Noah were not shown kissing for more than seven months), I had to know if Bob and Lee would lock lips at the ceremony. We have not yet seen them bed anything near physically intimate.

Said Marc: "I wouldn't be surprised if there was some kind of smooch...But you know what? You never know. I haven't edited the thing, we're still shooting it. There's always a surprise in editing."
