We just read in Mediaweek that there's a scene from an upcoming Desperate Housewives episode that ABC "doesn't want you to see." And the scene is on YouTube.

A racy sex scene from an upcoming episode of ABC's monster hit Desperate Housewives is one of several clips from the show circulating on YouTube, and ABC isn't happy.

"This is an unauthorized clip and we are having YouTube take it down," said an ABC spokesperson.

And we're so sure it's faster for them to issue a statement and make a huge fuss saying they're contacting YouTube than, well, actually pulling it.

See, you think it's fun to watch because ABC wants you to think you're not supposed to be seeing it. You ask us? It feels a bit like a PR campaign to get people to watch another season of old ladies in lingerie.

Update: While watching our ABC soaps, we saw a commerical for Desperate Housewives, in which they plug the scene you see above. Well, actually we closed our eyes, because we know how much ABC doesn't want us to see it.
