00:00 (upbeat music)

00:02 - It's a Wisteria Lane reunion

00:04 as Desperate Housewives stars Eva Longoria

00:07 and Jesse Metcalf reunite in Sin City.

00:10 - I want you so bad.

00:12 When can I see you again?

00:13 - Tomorrow.

00:14 Meet me at the front entrance of the mall after school.

00:16 Like I remember Jesse and I going everywhere together

00:18 and just like people, people still come up to me

00:22 and ask me like, tell me about the gardener.

00:24 (laughs)

00:25 I'm like, Jesse's amazing.

00:27 - Eva ran into her amazing co-star in Las Vegas Monday,

00:31 Jesse sharing this sweet pic of them together

00:34 and writing over the snap,

00:35 "Nothing like running into an old friend.

00:37 "Love you, Eva Longoria."

00:40 Eva also shared the photo to which she simply added,

00:42 "Reunited in Vegas."

00:45 - John, we have bandages top shelf in the kitchen.

00:49 - Thanks, Mrs. Elise.

00:50 - Desperate Housewives debuted on ABC in 2004.

00:54 Jesse played the attractive teenage gardener, John Rowland,

00:57 who carried on an adulterous affair

00:59 with Eva's Gabrielle Solis.

01:01 Hi, how was school?

01:03 - Got an A minus on my biology exam.

01:04 - You did?

01:05 Well, let's see what you've learned.

01:08 The storylines are even more amazing

01:10 and even funnier and even darker.

01:12 For us, it's like, it's not old yet.

01:14 It's not old.

01:16 So we love to come back to work.

01:17 - There's no divas.

01:18 You know, you'd think with four gorgeous ladies

01:21 that at least one of them would be a diva,

01:23 but there's really no attitude.

01:24 You know, it's a really great cast

01:25 and it's just a pleasure to work with everybody.

01:27 It's a lot of fun.

01:28 - When ET spoke with Eva last year,

01:30 she dropped a big bombshell.

01:32 Jesse wasn't originally cast as the gardener.

01:36 - The original gardener was actually a younger kid

01:38 and he looked younger and they recast him

01:41 because they were like, he really looks 16.

01:43 Like, and then they recast Jesse Metcalf

01:46 and Jesse was 25 when he did the show.

01:48 He was 25 playing 16 and I was 27 playing 40.

01:53 You know what I mean?

01:54 So Jesse and I were actually the same age.

01:56 So we didn't feel weird,

01:58 but it was definitely much better chemistry

02:02 and better for the story that it was Jesse Metcalf.

02:06 And it was so iconic.

02:07 - Jesse was a series regular during the show's first season,

02:10 but his character made fewer appearances as it went on.

02:14 Meanwhile, Eva appeared on all eight seasons.

02:16 The series ended in 2012.

02:19 - I just remember pinching myself.

02:21 I remember reading the script and going,

02:22 well, this will never go

02:23 'cause it was so different and it was,

02:25 it wasn't a comedy and it wasn't a drama.

02:27 Nobody knew what we were.

02:29 And when we did the first table read,

02:33 it was like goosebumps because it was the entire cast

02:36 and it was the first time we all had met.

02:37 And immediately, Marcia, Felicity and I just went,

02:40 vroom, and we became this like unit

02:42 and we were like in it together.

02:44 I was just happy to be there.

02:45 - As far as getting all the ladies back for a reboot goes.

02:49 - I don't know where these ladies would be now

02:52 in their life.

02:52 I ask Mark Cherry all the time and he says no.

02:55 He feels like we fully explored these characters.

02:59 So we fully mind all the characters.

03:01 I could not sleep with one more person on that street.

03:04 Like I was like, I've slept with everybody.

03:05 You've slept with everybody.

03:06 We've exchanged husbands.

03:08 Like, it was like, what else,

03:10 what other stories could we possibly tell from these women?

03:13 - For now, fans will just have to appreciate

03:16 sweet reunions like these ones.

03:19 (cymbal crashing)
