DEXTER & HOMELAND - Previews - Sneak Peeks - Interview! @SHO_Kareem @SHO_Dexter @SHO_Homeland

Michael C. Hall as 'Dexter' - Showtime Sunday nights @ 9 p.m.:

NEXT on DEXTER - Disturbing events cause Dexter to have a serious crisis of faith:

Dexter Episode 6.04 Sneak Peek: 'Imagination' - Dexter finds himself at a bizarre crime scene.

Homeland Sneak Peek: Smile for the Cameras - Carrie watches as Brody gets ready for a speech.

It's hard to believe but both DEXTER and HOMELAND are heading into their 4th episodes already!
The story-lines are well underway and things are heating up. To say tension is building, though a bit cliche-sounding is precisely what's going on in these two fine offerings from the Showtime network.
Here's a idea of what to look forward to on Dexter and Homeland this week:

HOMELAND - Episode 1.04: 'Semper I' Synopsis: 

The political powers that be make big plans for national hero Brody, but his increasingly erratic behavior threatens his media darling status; Carrie grows desperate for evidence linking Brody with Abu Nazir, as Saul directs her to focus on Nazir's money trail.

Episode 6.04: 'A Horse Of A Different Color' Synopsis:

Much to his own surprise, an emergency with Harrison and a new tableau from Gellar and Travis has Dexter leaning on Brother Sam and an unexpected winged messenger for support as he questions the idea of faith; with proof of a religiously motivated killer, Homicide hunts for a zealot, with Debra giving her first official press conference.

A lot is happening on both shows so don't forget to tune in this Sunday starting at 8C/9E for DEXTER and 9C/10E for HOMELAND!

I saw a fun tidbit in this week's EW magazine. Claire Danes, who stars as Carrie Mathison on Homeland was interviewed about her role and it was mentioned that some people have made the leap that Carrie is supposed to be Danes' previous television series incarnation going way back to 1994 as Anglea on the critically acclaimed "My So Called Life.'  Danes seemed truly incredulous: 'No, no! It's just my voice, it's just my face!', she says. It is sort of astonishing that though Danes was just 14 when she landed that role her appearance has not changed very much. She's got a very accessible, girl-next-door look, don't you think?

Dexter - Interview with Jennifer Carpenter (Oct 17)

Congratulations on the show's best season-premiere ratings yet.
Oh, wow, thanks. I don't really pay attention to that, but I'm glad it's doing well. I sort of enjoy the fact that we're in a bubble when we're shooting it. I feel like if I were imagining people really watching it, or the pressure of numbers, that maybe I wouldn't work as well [laughs].

What was your reaction to learning that Deb was going to be promoted?
It's pretty unbelievable. I mean, only on TV would I skip so many levels and shoot straight up to lieutenant. But my insecurities about the fictitious promotion were exactly where I needed to be with the character. So it all sort of worked. It's odd to be Batista's boss, when I feel like he really did earn it and has been a mentor; it's awkward. But she's really taken the lead on every major case that's come through the office.

Although she's missing the one obvious thing, which is that her brother's a serial killer.
Exactly. That is a very good point [laughs].
