In yet another standout performance, has Game Of Thrones' Peter Dinklage earned another Emmy?

Game Of Thrones - Inside Episode 8 (Cr: HBO)
Joffery (Jack Gleeson) insists that Sansa (Sophie Turner) be stripped and carried off to the wedding bed. A drunken Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) objects to this final insult to the massive injury he and Sansa have suffered at his father's hands. Tyrion threatens the King who is practically speechless because ya know, no one does that to the grand royal sociopath and lives--but grandpa Tywin (Charles Dance) comes to the rescue, explaining that he is sure that Tyrion meant the 'threat' as a joke. Tyrion isn't that drunk so he plays along as being even more soused, forcing a laugh and belittling his own male attributes.
After a rather long-winded, vaguely threatening recounting by Cersei (Lena Headey) to Margaery (Natalie Dorner) of the basis of the song 'The Rains of Castamere,' Cersei responds to Margaery's previous overture that they will be sisters so they should become friends with, 'If you ever call me sister again, I'll have you strangled in your sleep.'
Niiiiice one, Cersei. Easy to see where King Joff got his sociopathic tendencies.

After teasing us for months with frustratingly short sneak peeks at Dexter‘s upcoming eighth and final season, Showtime is finally giving us what we’ve been waiting for: the first full-length trailer!
The following three-minute promo sheds disturbing new light on the mental and emotional breakdown Deb will suffer in the wake of LaGuerta’s murder.
Cocaine binges? Check. Anonymous sex? Check. Prescription drug dependency? Check. DUI bust? Check. Full-on confession? Maybe check**...
I disagree that they are teasing this early in the pre-season, Debra (Jennifer Carpenter) 'making a confession' to the police in light of the fact that we hear audio of a phone call between Dexter and Joey Quinn (Desmond Harrington) in which Quinn tells Dex that 'Your sister was brought in for a DUI last night.' Also, (most) screencaps don't lie: See below.
Here is Deb, getting stopped for the DUI: Notice the distinctive coloring on her coat sleeve.
I think Debra is in no shape to make a coherent statement; it is in fact one of many times, I'm guessing, that Deb will almost spill her dark secrets in this final season of Dexter.
Here Deb is in the same jacket....
....struggling to speak in order to provide 'an official statement' to Lt. Quinn (Desmond Harrington)

Above is a lovely set of HQ photos of the DexterMiami Metro set.
So what, if anything, can we gather as clues about Dexter's 8th and final season from these images?
Besides that the lights are on and no one appears to be home, we can see that Dexter has filmed at least through episode 806--halfway to the finish line! Also, we know that John Dahl is directing epsiode 806, which is titled 'A Little Reflection' and will air on Showtime on August 4, 2013.
Additionally, Dexter episode 806 was written by James Manos, Jr., who has worked in different capacities on both The Sopranos and The Shield as well as previously on Dexter.
According to IMDb, Dexter episode 806 has a guest cast that includes Dora Madison Burge as 'Niki',
Sean Patrick Flanery as 'Jacob Elroy',
Bethany Joy Lenz as 'Cassie',
Charlotte Rampling as Dr. Evelyn Vogel,
Yvonne Strahovski as Hannah McKay and
Jadon Wells as Dexter's newly cast son, Harrison Morgan.
And--that's all I've got. Feel free to drop a comment with your interpretation of this photo set!
Update:
Dexter - Casting News - Kenny Johnson get Multi-Episode Arc
Kenny Johnson (The Shield, Sons of Anarchy) is joining Dexter‘s upcoming eighth and final season in a multi-episode arc, TVLine has learned exclusively. Johnson will play U.S. Marshall Cooper, a no-nonsense and formidable lawman who is hired by P.I. Jacob Elway (recurring guest star Sean Patrick Flanery) to hunt down an infamous criminal.
He's a serial killer with a code but will his 'body of work' be remembered as that of a monster or will his legacy be that of one who created a masterpiece?
Dexter season 8 on Showtime starts June 30 @9 pm (Cr: Showtime)
I know it's just a promo and Dexter obviously suffers from a compulsion to kill, but I never thought of him as deluded. This promo has him seriously pondering if history will remember his work as a masterpiece?! Now, if we are talking about a description of Dexter the show, I can get on board with that. Hm. I'm probably reading too much into it.
The season 8 premiere of Dexter is June 30th at 9PM ET/PT.
Dexter Season 8: Tease - Masterpiece (VIDEO)
'Dexter' Final Season Finds Dex Weighing His Legacy (VIDEO)
After releasing cryptic key art (after the jump) that questioned whether Dexter (Michael C. Hall) would survive the upcoming eighth (and final) season of Dexter, the likeable serial killer is now weighing just how he might be remembered.
In a new clip, Dex looks to leave behind a legacy -- a "monument" to make his mark -- as he questions just what he created. As the camera pans out, Dexter's potential legacy is revealed: Artistic portraits of his extensive and noteworthy victims, including the Trinity Killer, Miguel Prado, Brian Moser, Issak Sirko, Jordan Chase, Lila West and innumerable others.
"Will they call it monstrous or a masterpiece?" he ponders.

Dexter Excuses Supercut (VIDEO)
Watch a compilation of Dexter's best excuses from the last 7 seasons!
Throughout the series, Dexter (Michael C. Hall) has had to make up dozens of excuses--lies, actually--on the fly but he's nothing if not a quick thinker. He's probably lied more to his sister Deb (Jennifer Carpenter) than anyone, provoking her to ask, 'Where in fucktopia were you?' Dexter has had a lot of "personal business," that seems to puzzle Deb--though she never really questioned his honesty, before last season, when this happened:
Debra had to chose in the season 7 finale whether to shoot her boss, Maria LaGuerta, who had uncovered Dexter's serial killing ways and was begging Deb to 'put him down.' Dexter smoothly manipulated the situation, encouraging Deb that she had no other choice but to shoot him. After anguishing for what seemed like an enternity, Deb shot LaGuerta in cold blood, sparing her cold-blooded serial killer brother.

This brand new Dexter tease gives us more details about the struggles and eff-ups that continue six months after Debra murdered LaGuerta. We see Deb taking a bad beating in a storage unit, then cut to the thug that beat her being surprised by "someone' who shoots him through his car windows. Did Deb do that--or was it Dexter?
Dexter sees his sister coming apart and exclaims, 'Deb, look at youself, you're lost!' To which Deb emphatically responds: 'No, you're lost!

Part of the Dexter season 8 cast (Cr: Showtime)
We are rapidly approaching the season 8 premiere of Dexter, which will also bring us the series' conclusion. Since this is such a crucial part of the entire series, I'm laying out now how I will share information about Dexter episodes before they air.
In writing about Dexter I've done my best to separate true spoilers from the 'in-case-you-are-behind-on-your-viewing 'spoilers.' Forever A Fangirl's policy is, if the episode has been broadcast or in some way made legally available for the public to view, then anything said about it is not a spoiler.
Put simply, spoilers happen before the episode is broadcast. Just the same, since there's just not enough room to explain the nuances of a sorta-spoiler, a small spoiler and a SPOILER in my blog post titles, I'm using the word 'spoiler' whenever I have intel on an episode or character or story arc that has not aired.
That said, any inside information that I may have picked up prior to a Dexter epsiode being broadcast I will share--up to a point. Otherwise, why bother watching? Perhaps 'tease' is a better word, as if you are determined enough you may glean from the tease enough info to put two and two together. OK? Okay.
Showtime issued a press release today which you can scroll down to read. Though it is cool to know that the story picks up six months after Deb murdered Maria Laguerta, I'm going to hone in on the enticing mention of this character:
'a mysterious woman comes to work with Miami Metro, offering first-hand information on Dexter’s past.'
Previously, Showtime described her thusly: "a neuro-psychiatrist who specializes in working with young psychopaths and profiling criminals in unorthodox ways" (my italics).
British acting veteran Charlotte Rampling is joining Dexter (I believe her part is considered 'recurring') as Dr. Evelyn Vogel. Here she is pictured at work:
Charlotte Rampling as Dr. Evelyn Vogel on Dexter Season 8 (Cr: Showtime)
I don't know about you, but I'd say what Dr. Vogel is doing in this screenshot is pretty 'unorthodox'.
Can't wait to find out how she impacts Dexter's life!

Showtime has been busy piling on the season 8 Dexter videos--not that anyone is complaining!
If you keep a close eye out, there are several semi-spoiler-y images that you can check out. I screencapped them all so you can do your own sleuthing but from the top we have:
David Zayas, who plays Batista, appears to have taken Deb's place as per his stance at the podium in the staff meeting room. That then means that Deb has stepped down as Lieutenant and from the looks of this sneak peek she's gone down a couple of rungs to doing undercover work.
Speaking of police work, in the 'Dexter Season 8: In Production with David Zayas' clip, after he introduces his son who is his stand-in, we can see part of the whiteboard where the details of the current crime investigation are laid out. We have a serial killer whose crimes have been dubbed the "Surgeon Murders." We also have serveral shots which illustrate some of the Surgeon's work like this one, which, bonus! includes Charlotte Rampling:

In the Killer or Innocent Victim Dexter Clip, Dexter frets about what he has done to Debra's psyche. After spending much of his life protecting her, he may now have destroyed her. Jennifer Carpenter, who plays Debra, does a particularly great job of expressing a wide range of emotions in the clip, which is one of the reasons we love her so.
The Behind A Mask Dexter Clip again has Michael C. Hall, who plays Dexter, doing the voice-over. He's fretting again, this time about how his mask is slipping evermore and he's certain that his time of remaining the anonymous vigilante is coming to an end.

Waiting sucks but Season 6 of True Blood premieres Sunday, June 16 at 9pm only on HBO.
True Blood
returns in June, and HBO has released the third of multiple “Waiting
Sucks” videos that give us a behind-the-scenes look at the new season.
This short scene involves the interrogation by Eric Northman (Alexander Skarsgård) of Willa Burrell (Amelia Rose Blaire) the daughter of anti-vampire Louisiana Governor Creighton Burrell (Arliss Howard). Willa tells Eric
of vampire abductions and torture. The governor's daughter has been described as being sympathetic to the vampire cause so Eric is probably just showing off when he 'drops fang'. Or not.

She wasn't handling knowing that Dexter was a serial killer all that well and now, because of her love for her brother she's allowed him to draw her in to his murderous ways--and Debra hates both Dexter and herself but above all, herself for turning into a despicable creature that she does not recognize as the old Debra, who will not ever be able to look at herself in the mirror and just see "Deb," ever again.
Has the murder of Maria LaGuerta by Deb on Dexter's behalf at the end of season 7 started Deb on the path to a place she won't be able to come back from?
To thank you for your love and support over the last seven years, we wanted you, the fans, to be the first to see an exclusive sneak peek at the eighth and final season of DEXTER!
'Dexter' June 30th at 9pm ET/PT on Showtime.

We can confirm that the upcoming eighth season of our groundbreaking series DEXTER® will be its final one. Today’s announcement coincides with the release of an exclusive tease from the premiere of the series’ eighth and final season, which debuts on Sunday June 30th at 9 p.m. ET/PT . The series premiered on October 1, 2006 and has grown its loyal audience every season since its debut. DEXTER was the recipient of the prestigious Peabody Award, as well as 25 Emmy and 10 Golden Globe Award nominations, and was twice named one of AFI’s top ten television series.
“When it debuted in 2006, DEXTER redefined the genre, by taking the anti-hero to new heights and pushing the boundaries of the television landscape,” said Matthew C. Blank, Chairman and CEO, Showtime Networks Inc. “DEXTER paved the way for the next generation of award-winning hit SHOWTIME series, and its cultural impact will be felt for years to come.”
“DEXTER is a landmark franchise for our network, and we cannot wait to unveil the conclusion of this series, as we know it, to the millions of passionate fans who have supported the show season after season,” said David Nevins, President of Entertainment, Showtime Networks Inc. “We’d like to thank Michael, Jennifer, and DEXTER ‘s indomitable cast, executive producers, writers and crew for eight incredible seasons.”
The exclusive tease from DEXTER ‘s eighth and final season premiere gives fans a sneak peek into the mindset of Dexter and Debra Morgan after LaGuerta’s death in season seven.

As much as I love a solid TV news exclusive like this one from EW, I still enjoy the on-set Tweets from Jennifer Carpenter (Dexter's sister, 'Deb') the most (@J2theCarpenter). Have a look at some of the shots she's posted (as well as a fan shot). I'd bet my eldest son, that Carpenter's onscreen character, Debra Morgan, is going to find herself driving into a pond and looking a bit worse for wear (see photo) afterwards. No context yet other than Carpenter referring to the scene as happening in episode 4, which I guess actually is some context. Check back for more spoilery Tweets from Carpenter and other Dexter updates, as we get closer to the June 30 2013 premiere date of Dexter on Showtime!

Yvonne Strahovski is officially returning to Dexter for the show’s eighth season.
Yvonne Strahovski returning to 'Dexter' --EW EXCLUSIVE
The actress is set to reprise her role in a multi-episode arc this summer as Hannah McKay, the gorgeous killer florist. Last season, Hannah became Dexter’s twisted love interest and a major thorn in his side. When we last saw her in the seventh season finale, Hannah had escaped from prison, and Dex was seemingly lucky to get away from her. “We both knew it would come to this, one of us dead or behind bars,” Dexter said. With Hannah returning, we suspect this time one of them (or both?) won’t escape so easily.

Game Of Thrones, Dark Wings, Dark Words (Episode 3.02) Review
I liked this episode more than the GoT season 3 premiere. It had more fluidity, moved more quickly, and featured characters that were sorely missed in episode one: Jaime, Brienne, and Arya. Also, it caught us up Bran and Co. and introduced us to two new, very intriguing characters who join him on his long journey.
I felt like there was too much King's Landing last week and just enough this week with the much-lauded scene with Dame Diana Rigg's Matriarch, Olenna Tyrell and Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) as well as queen-to-be Margaery Tyrell (Natalie Dormer) playing pitch perfectly to the way it as written in book #3. It will be fun to see the Tyrell's story un-spool.
I don't know why exactly because I used to enjoy her, but I'm really tiring of of Queen Regent Cersei's (Lena Headey) sneer. She really seems a one-note character in the television adaption and though snarky-witty (snitty?) at times, she comes across as her bratty-sadist son the King pointed out in this episode and her hated brother Tyrion pointed out in the last, rather lacking in any real abilities. Sort of predictable and ho-hum.
Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) and Brienne (Gwendoline Christie) were entertaining, though Brienne showed her naivete allowing Jaime to take her sword. Their extended sword fight in plain sight on a cross-bridge looks as if it will have disastrous consequences.
Very little happened in Jon Snow's (Kit Harington) segment. He met a warg--a human that can see through a non-human's eyes--for the first time--that was about it. Speaking of wargs, we found that Jon's half-brother Bran (Isaac Hempstead Wright), who is trekking to the Wall in search of Jon, is himself a warg as is his new companion Jojen Reed (Thomas Brodie-Sangster) who is accompanied and protected by his older sister, Meera Reed (Ellie Kendrick).
My eyes are glazing over too when the mother-son duo of Catelyn Stark (Michelle Fairley) and Robb Stark (Richard Madden) are onscreen. They are as big of sourpusses as Charles Dance's Tywin Lannister but he is way more interesting. Robb pouts and stomps around and Cateyln frets and grieves--there is zero levity ever to their scenes and it is tiresome. Robb marrying Talisa (Oona Chaplin) in an uncharacteristic moment of thoughtless, spontaneous indulgence last season has given us a character that is just sort of hanging around as a plot device.
Finally, we found out what became of turn-cloak Theon Greyjoy (Alfie Allen)--he's in a very-very dark place.
Enjoy the preview video (above) and screencaps (after the jump) of next week's episode, Game Of Thrones Episode #23: “Walk of Punishment," as Game of Thrones - Inside Episode 3.02 - Dark Wings, Dark Words (VIDEO) and the just added The Daily Raven: "Game of Thrones" Season 3 Ep. 2 Review.

One of the most gorgeously set locations on the Game of Thrones, Iceland, is standing in for the fantastic land Beyond The Wall. Many fans are 'shipping the Ygritte (Rose Leslie) and Jon Snow (Kit Harington) relationship in hopes that it will burn as brightly as Ygritte's flaming locks. Offscreen, the two actors share a warm friendship which seems to translate quite nicely onto the small screen.

True Blood - Season 6 - HBO Announces Premiere Date
Alexander Skarsgård, Anna Paquin & Stephen Moyer star in True Blood Season 6 (Cr: HBO)
The ten-episode season of
TRUE BLOOD kicks off SUNDAY, JUNE 16 at (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET/PT). Based
on the popular Sookie Stackhouse books by Charlaine Harris, this
Emmy®-nominated hit drama series was created by Alan Ball, creator of
HBO’s Emmy®-winning series “Six Feet Under.” The show follows waitress
and part-faerie Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin), who can hear people’s
thoughts, vampire Bill Compton (Stephen Moyer) and vampire Eric Northman
(Alexander Skarsgård).
It was announced previously that True Blood would be scaled back to 10 episodes in season 6 due to the show's stars, husband and wife Stephen Moyer and Anna Paquin expanding their household when Paquin gave birth late last summer--and according to Alan Ball, 'economics'.
Given that if renewed, True Blood will be going into it's 7th season in 2014, it may be more financially feasible for HBO to keep the show (like the mega-fantasy hit Game Of Thrones) to just ten episodes per season.
Giving us a broad hint that True Blood has not lost it's sense of humour, Alexander Skarsgård as Eric Northman appears to be in civilain clothes--a couple sizes too small for him. (Cr: HBO)
TRUE BLOOD Casting Update - Season 6 - Karolina Wydra to Recur
Spending a year married to Gregory House can turn a woman into a real bloodsucker.
Case in point: Karolina Wydra — who played Dominika, the convenient
bride of Hugh Laurie’s titular doc on Fox’s House — is joining True
Blood‘s sixth season as a badass vampire, TVLine has learned
exclusively.
Wydra’s recurring character, Violet, is described as a strong, sexy,
possibly dangerous vamp on par with the Eric Northmans and Bill Comptons
of the world.

Game of Thrones - Episode 3.01 - Valar Dohaeris - Review
This is an initial impression of the premiere episode Game of Thrones - Episode 3.01 - 'Valar Dohaeris'. It contains only the mildest of spoilers.
Unsurprisingly and very satisfyingly, the series has raised the bar yet again visually. The locations, the sets, the costumes, the effects… everything just looks sumptuous.
In the premiere episode, we pick up where we left off last season, with Sam Tarley running from the White Walkers and their army of undead. The scene is intense and atmospheric...with a surprise ending. Cut to the opening credits, which feature King’s Landing, Winterfell, Harrenhal, Dragonstone, the Wall and Astapor.
The rest of the episode is dedicated to catching us up with the various players in the story, including those in King’s Landing, on Dragonstone, beyond the Wall and across the Narrow Sea.
Many of these scenes do double-duty, not only catching us up on past events but also setting things up for later in the season like... watching the chess pieces being moved into position yet again... and their potential meaning... for the storylines this season.
And what of those storylines? Every one wants to know how closely this season will hew to A Storm of Swords.
Having only watched a fraction of season 3... it seems that they are still following the main storyline but at times...taking a different path getting to their destination.
There are a number of new scenes in episode one that are not in the book but which blend in in such a way that they could have been.
Others scenes, like in past seasons are wholly different from the writings of George R.R. Martin, but they serve to streamline events and characters.
Season 2 of Game Of Thrones kept most of our characters very busy.
Robb Stark is
fighting for an independent North.
Theon Greyjoy turned on the
Starks but was eventually stabbed in the back by his own family.
Joffrey Lannister is still on the Iron Throne, but his uncle, Renly Baratheon,
also felt he had the right to claim the throne and he received help
from House Tyrell.
Tyrion Lannister arrived in King’s Landing to
become the hand of the king, only to almost succcumb during the
Battle of the Blackwater and then to be cast aside by his own
father, Tywin.
Then there is Stannis Baratheon, also still in it to win
it, and he is being helped by Melisandre (Carice van Houten).
Meanwhile, Daenerys Targaryen is still on Essos with her three
dragons, Jon Snow is still a captive of the Wildlings, and the last
episode ended with Sam Tarly trying to hide from an army of White Walkers.

Gwendoline Christie: Game Of Thrones' Chameleon Knight
Gwendoline Christie - Despite what all the interviewers say, she's exactly like Brienne of Tarth (Cr: Gwendoline Christie/Twittter)
After looking forward to 'meeting' Brienne of Tarth onscreen in season 2 of HBO's Game Of Thrones, I was not the least disappointed in Gwendoline Christie's portrayal of the character, nor in her appearance. Unfortunately, we didn't get a lot of time to appreciate Christie's abilities--her acting or her physicality--as her chacacter's arc hadn't picked up yet. SPOILER. It does this season. And better yet, her arc is hugely intertwined with another character that though a fan fave, was barely glimpsed last season (same reason as for 'Brienne'). Both will (hopefully) get a nice piece of screen time in Game of Thrones season 3 as they struggle through an incredibly perilous adventure 'together' (reluctantly).
In a gorgeous forest glade in Northern Ireland last September, Gwendoline Christie is dressed in armor and sitting atop a horse. Her arms and hands
are bound with sturdy rope. “I can only shake hands with my eyes,” she
says with a grin.
When the director orders “action,” Christie, as Game of Thrones
fan-favorite knight Brienne of Tarth, jumps off the horse and muscles
through some henchmen. On the show it all looks quick and simple. In
person, the action is more impressive because of Christie’s bulky
costume and bindings — just try jumping down onto uneven ground without
the use of your arms. Luckily, ever since landing the role of Brienne
two years ago, Christie has engaged in heavy physical training for the
part. The rigorous dedication will pay off more than ever in season
three as her character undertakes a very challenging journey while
trying to return the captive kingslayer Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj
Coster-Waldau) to King’s Landing.
“We last saw her as a female knight who was very much having to prove
herself and find her place and find her place in society because she
doesn’t have a natural place where she fits in,” Christie says after the
crew releases her from her bindings. “By the end of [the season] she
has a mission, which she believes is for the greater good. [Season 3]
focuses on [Brienne and Jaime's] relationship and the journey those two
human beings go on is extraordinary. We see her in situations trying to
survive in ways that extend beyond her physical strength. And we start
to see her explore her womanhood, what it is, for her, to be a woman.
She’s starts to find out more about herself and about very basic human
emotions — attachment to someone else and what honor really means to
her. In this ridiculous and extreme situation of high drama, she starts
to really find out who she is and what she believes in.”
Brienne is described in George R.R Martin’s Song of Ice and Fire novels
as large, tough and physically unattractive. When EW first reported the
relative newcomer had landed the role, the very first reader comment on
the post, which included a red-carpet out-of-character photo of the
actress, was, “She looks too pretty and thin to play Brienne.” That
oddly flattering knock was a somewhat common reaction to her casting (at
least, until fans saw her impressively muscular interpretation of the
role).
Christie says she was rather startled — and pleased — by the response.
“All my life, all I’ve ever wanted is for people to say — first of all —
I’m pretty. But ‘too pretty’? Is amazing,” she says. “I also loved that
they said, ‘Who’s this model?’ I only ever wanted to be a model. This
acting thing — three years of drama school — is an accident! I was like,
‘Wow, they think I’m a model?’ I didn’t mind it at all. I knew all the
things I wanted to do to become the part. I’ve always been able to look
very different very easily.”
As you listen to Christie, it’s striking how, on the surface, she is
nothing like Brienne — in a good way. Brienne’s personality is rather
cold and humorless whereas Christie is witty and passionate.
Nonetheless, the actress says she’s been able to identify with Brienne’s
search to find her place in the world. “There’s so many parts of my
life that I’ve struggled with — that so many millions of others
struggled with — about being an outsider, about feeling ugly, about
having to overcome looking different to other people,” she says. “The
great thing about this character is she’s found her strength. And this
season, she goes beyond that as a person.”

Here's a Recap of the True Blood Season 6 (&7) Character Casting, Episode Titles & Directing Credits. True Blood season 6 debuts on HBO in June 2013
True Blood Season 6 - Steven Moyer directs episode 6.01 of True Blood season 6. Shown at the microphones is actor Arliss Howard, who plays the anti-vampire governor.
Beginning in episode 6.06, there will be a new recurring vampire on HBO's vampire drama True Blood named 'Wes'.
Wes was turned in the 1970s when he was in his mid 20's. His ethnicity isn't specified. He's sexy, smart, compassionate, protective, and plays the guitar. He's going to be involved in a love triangle with Jason and another vampire ... Wes will be a strong recurring role in the reduced, 10-episode season 6 and a regular in (the presumably, expanded-to-normal) season 7.
Oh, also, he needs to be willing to show his bare bum.
True Blood - Episode 6.04 - Title Revealed and Roles Being Cast
True Blood episode 6.04 will be called, "I'm Your Man," with two possibly-recurring roles being cast for it: LAVTF Team Commander (LAVTF = "Louisiana Vampire Task Force"?) , who prepares to attack a house with his crew; and Security Chief, whose becomes concerned for his employer when a vampire pays a visit.
These guys sound like ultimately, they will be red shirts.
Episode 6.03 of True Blood will be called "Rock Hard Times" and one guest star and a number of co-star roles are being cast for it.
The guest star part is a 50-year-old woman named Beverly Hutt who was a friend of Sookie/Jason's parents and answers their questions about them. The co-star roles are: Young Beverly Hutt, 30 year old, (seen in a flashback), 4 mischievous/silly faerie girls (who are younger versions of 4 faeries as seen in a flashback), a 30-to-50-year-old hospital nurse who attempts to calm a patient, 8-year-old Sookie (also seen in a flashback), and two Caddo Parish sheriff deputies who visit Sam at his home.
Episode 6.02 will be called "Here Comes the Sun," and several parts are being cast for it, including the co-star role of Niall's protective mother (from a flashback scene set in 3500 B.C., in which a young Niall also appears). There's also a prostitute named Veronica (a guest star role) who makes money by letting vampires feed on her, and these recurring roles: a few 20-something "Occupy Wall Street" types, and Willa Burrell, who is Governor Burrell's (played by Arliss Howard) daughter, and who disagrees with her father's agenda.
Finally, a possibly-recurring character, Maggie, is 35, pregnant, and convinced that her husband left her to raise their child by herself.
Arliss Howard (Rubicon, Medium) is joining the HBO’s forthcoming True Blood sixth season in the series regular role of Louisiana Governor Creighton Burrell, TVLine has learned exclusively.
The character is described as a good ol’ boy politician who has a major beef with vampires ever since his wife ran off with one, leaving him as a single father to their only daughter. Politically savvy and perhaps overly ambitious, Creighton tends to let his personal aspirations overshadow his humanity.
The title of True Blood episode 6.01, which is directed by True Blood's own Stephen Moyer (Vampire 'Bill Compton'), will be "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood."
Three co-starring roles are being cast for the episode including: two 'Caddo Parish' sheriff deputies, for a scene in which they politely pay Sam a visit at his house; and a male Authority guard, who sees something he can't believe in the AHO Control Room.
True Blood - Season 6 - Robert Patrick upped to Series Regular
Three weeks after ABC opted not to give a back order to submarine drama Last Resort, the series co-star Robert Patrick has signed on a series regular on HBO’s vampire drama True Blood, reprising his role as Alcide’s (Joe Manganiello) father.
True Blood - Season 6 - Casting News: Rob Kazinsky plays Sookie's New Love Interest
Kazinsky — whose biggest TV credit stateside was an arc as a doctor on Brothers & Sisters — will play Ben, a 'highly charismatic faerie who takes a liking to Sookie (and vice-versa) and helps Sookie and Jason delve deeper into the mystery of their parents’ murders'.
As if Dexter Morgan didn't have enough problems on his hands, his
world is now getting set to be invaded by a loony actor from the land of
HBO's hit series "Entourage." Read on to find out who his dark
passenger will have to deal with next.

Dexter - Season 8 - Casting News - Charlotte Rampling gets recurring role
A veteran British actress has landed a key role in the upcoming eighth (and possibly final) season of Showtime’s Dexter.
Charlotte Rampling has been cast in a recurring role as a neuro-psychiatrist who specializes in working with young psychopaths and profiling criminals in unorthodox ways. We hear the role has a significant impact on next season’s story.
I'm intrigued by each of these roles for one reason: They all seem to point to the noose tightening around both Dexter's (Michael C. Hall) and Deb's (Jennifer Carpenter) necks.
Firstly, expanding Aimee Garcia's role to a regular means of course, that she'll be getting more face time--but doing what? "Jamie Batista" could play a very important role in any information -gathering that might be going on in regard to Dexter. Since she is Dexter's son Harrison's nanny, she has a great deal of knowledge about Dexter's comings and goings, though until this point she has seemed to be playing dumb about his weird night-time schedule. One might suppose that her suspicions are aroused or she is somehow recruited to start paying more attention to the tell-tale details of Dexter's very odd daily schedule. (Side note: Aimee Garcia was born in 1978! You do the math (she looks so youthful!)
Sean Patrick Flanery's casting in a 'major part' as 'Jacob Elroy, a former
cop-turned-private eye in Miami' as could bode ill for Dex and Deb, as could the creation of the character of 'a neuro-psychiatrist who specializes in working with young psychopaths and profiling criminals in unorthodox ways'. Charlotte Rampling will have a recurring role as the yet-to-be named character. As a profiler, she too will be a potential threat to Dexter and Debra.
It's strictly supposition on my part, but my feeling is that in this (supposedly) final season of Dexter that we will be kept guessing as to whether Dexter and Deb will be made to pay for their crimes and if so, to what extent. It could make for a very compelling season but in any case, I'm very excited that the story will begin to unfold June 30 2012 at 9 p.m. on Showtime when Dexter season 8 returns as as a lead-in for Showtime’s new series Ray Donovan, which stars Liev Schreiber as a professional “fixer” for the rich and famous.

Surprise, mother f**ker! Dexter Returns for Season 8 in June!
This is one I didn't see coming, but according to Showtime boss David Nevins' announcement at the Television Critics Association’s winter press tour, the hit drama will debut three months earlier than usual on Sunday, June 30 at 9/8c, where it will lead into a brand new Showtime original drama.
Dexter and Ray Donovan Summer 2013
The return of Dexter and the premiere of Ray Donovan Sunday, June 30th only on Showtime.
Check out this NEW Video (above) that catches you up with Dexter's NEW schedule as well as the Liev Schreiber vehicle, 'Ray Donovan.'
Liev Schreiber in 'Ray Donovan' (Cr: Showtime)
The Showtime hit is moving to summer for what could be its final season. Dexter season 8 will debut June 30 at 9 p.m. to serve as a lead-in for Showtime’s new series Ray Donovan, which stars Liev Schreiber as a professional “fixer” for the rich and famous.
Showtime's entertainment president assures that the Dexter
team will still have plenty of time to create a strong season. “They
had a lot of advance warning [that this was happening] and they know
where they’re going,” he said. “No less production time; a little less
vacation time.”
Dates released for more NEW and returning Showtime Original Programming:
In addition to the big news that Dexter fans have only to wait five more months for season 8 to commence, Nevins announced that Showtime's Golden Globe & Emmy award-winning thriller Homeland, will return for its third season Sept. 29 and will be paired with the new Masters and Johnson period drama Masters of Sex.
More 2013 dates from Showtime: Shameless, House of Lies and Californication premiered on Sunday, January 13; Nurse Jackie and The Borgias April 14; The Big C: Hereafter will conclude the series starting April 29. Web Therapy will be on sometime this summer. Episodes will return early 2014. Here’s a video preview of Ray Donovan and Masters:
MASTERS OF SEX and RAY DONOVAN, the newest additions to the critically-acclaimed and award-winning slate of original series from Showtime, will premiere in 2013.
Ausiello: Yes. Producers have quietly begun looking
for a 6-year-old boy to play a 4-year-old boy throughout S8, which makes
me wonder if Harrison is going to experience a growth spurt between
seasons.

The countdown to Dexter‘s endgame has begun.
The Showtime serial killer thriller will introduce two major recurring characters in its upcoming eighth and likely, final season — and both could spell trouble for Dex and Deb.
First up is Dr. Evelyn Vogel, a formidable and whip smart neuro-psychiatrist in her late 50s who assists the law in profiling criminals (like, perhaps, the one who murdered LaGuerta?).
This particular character's job description and roughly, age (and sex) made me think of Dr. Kay Scarpetta in the Patricia Cornwell series.
The show is also on the hunt for a 40ish actor to play Jacob Elroy, a handsome and straightforward former cop who now runs his own private eye business. GUESSES: Angel (or Tom?!) hires him to find out who killed his ex-wife/ex-partner-in-crime.
Dex and Deb are doomed to be found out if she and 'Jacob' start dating. He's her type, older and 'in the business.' I think, sooner or later Deb will be the one to crack and spill both her and Dexter's secret.
But I can totally see Dex attempting to take the fall for his sister though and vehemently dissuading her from doing the same for him. Just the same, I see him always feeling what he does is just and worthy, though he understands how vastly different a murderer like himself is from someone who has never done so.
The concluding season of Dexter is can't miss TV. It ought to be a total ride.
In case you missed it: Sample a full episode of Dexter. Here. Now.

Maisie Williams as Arya Stark in Game of Thrones season 3 (Cr: HBO)
The biggest production on TV of one of the biggest stories in fantasy is about to get ...bigger.
The Game of Thrones team is creating a “super-sized” third season of the hit series.
With showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss tackling content from the first half (roughly) of author George R.R. Martin’s largest Song of Ice and Fire novel (the 973-page, A Storm of Swords), the writer-producer duo are delivering slightly longer episodes to the network.
They will number still only ten, but the episodes will run a bit longer each week than in previous seasons.
“There’s almost another full episode’s worth of extra minutes spread across the season,” Weiss says. “One of the great liberties with HBO is we’re not forced to come in at a specific time. We can’t be under 50 minutes or over 60, but that gives us a lot of flexibility.”
“A super-sized season, as befitting Storm of Swords,” Benioff adds. “Last year we had a lot of 52-minute episodes. This year is a lot of 56, 57.”
In fact, the third season finale is expected to run more than an hour — a move that requires special permission from the network (previously, the show’s pilot and its second season finale exceeded an hour).
Episodes are still being edited so exact times could change, but HBO and producers are confident the season will deliver more Thrones than ever before. Says HBO in a statement:
“All 10 episodes gained a minute or two from past seasons with the finale very possibly exceeding 60 minutes.”
“So for people clamoring for another episode, it’s in there,” Weiss says. “It’s just been cut into tiny pieces.”

Alex Gansa discusses the season 2 finale of Homeland.
“These star crossed lovers were never meant to be together. And every time they do get together something really bad happens. Even the power of this love that they have between them and the connection that these two damaged souls have found in each other, is ultimately a curse.” -- Alex Gansa

As the Season 2 finale for Showtime’s Homeland neared on Sunday night, the burning question became: Would Nicholas Brody emerge from the season-ender alive?
Could the the war hero-turned-would-be terrorist plausibly survive into Season 3? As it turned out his life was saved, but his love was lost.

Homeland - Episode 2.12 (Season Finale) 'The Choice' (Cr: Showtime)
No matter what happens on the season 2 final of Homeland, I doubt very much that it will feel ambiguous. If you've been watching thus far you know that episode 2 or 4 or even 11 could have been concluding episodes rather than contained within the season. The writers are not afraid to drive the story at dizzying speeds--yet somehow never sacrificing the character development. With Brody unmasked as a terrorist, both Vice President Walden and Abu Nazir dead, Brody's marriage over and Brody, unbeknownst to him or Carrie, with a giant target on his forehead, how can this possibly end well?
One would guess that Brody's must die. The CIA has sanctioned his death, he has a black ops assassin who is tracking him--the only thing standing between him and a bullet to the brain is Carrie--which is a pretty scary thought. There's no doubt in my mind that however this turns out, that Homeland's season 2 finale episode is going to be a real nail-biter. And we wouldn't want it any other way, right? See you Sunday!

Homeland: A Preview of the Season Finale from EP Alex Gansa - Will Brody die?
With only one episode left in its second season, Showtime’s Homeland has already dispatched two very prominent characters: Vice President Walden (Jamey Sheridan) went last week, and in episode 11's shocking hour, elusive terrorist Abu Nazir (Navid Negahban) was finally caught and killed.
Had producers known from the beginning of season 2 that Homeland‘s big bad would perish? “I think the short answer to that is yes,” says executive producer Alex Gansa. “The long answer is we weren’t actually sure how that would happen. But the reason we wanted Walden and Nazir both dead is we wanted to open the possibility that Brody and Carrie could have a happy ending, that their doomed romance was not doomed after all. The only way to make that happen was to off these two antagonists.”

So what can Gansa tease about next week’s season finale? “The final episode is called ‘The Choice,’ and what I can say about it is .... we’ve sort of left the thriller aspects of the show behind and now we come to a very personal story about Carrie and Brody and all the obstacles that lie in the way of them being together. That is what the finale is about. It’s a real character study of these two people, where they’ve come from, how they regard each other, and whether or not there’s a future for them.”

It's time now to make your best guess as to how Dexter season 7 will wrap up.
Last week, after discovering that Hannah (Yvonne Strahovski) attempted to murder his sister Deb (Jennifer Carpenter), Dex (Michael C. Hall) took decisive action after lab results from a water bottle he found in Deb's wreaked car showed the water to be 40% spiked with prescription medication that knocked Deb out while she was at the wheel of her car. He retrieved the poison pen that Hannah used to kill Sal Price, the 'true crime' writer, and turned it over to Deb so she could bring charges against Hannah for his murder. The episode closed on a solemn note with Hannah declaring as they cuffed her that Dex 'should've killed (her)'.
I have to say, I felt greatly relieved as Dexter was behaving entirely as I would think he would given the great closeness he has with Debra. I never questioned that he would 'choose' Deb over Hannah but it wasn't clear until it came to a matter of life and death. Interesting too, how Dex echoed Deb's own words about keeping company with Hannah: "You'll never be safe."
The season would seem to be wrapped up save for one very important detail: Sgt. LaGuerta's (Lauren Velez) dogged determination to clear her former lover, cop, and Dexter nemesis, James Doakes (Erik King) of the moniker of having been the "Bay Harbor Butcher.' As we saw, she narrowed the possible suspects down to Dexter and despite finding evidence to the contrary which implicated Doakes (and which she correctly suggested Dexter could have planted) and assuring her former boss Tom Matthews (Geoff Pierson) that she would cease and desist, she continues in the season finale at full steam ahead in her efforts to take Dexter down.
How far will she go? Are the promo photos and sneak peeks which indicate that Dexter is arrested real or are they a fantasty or recollection like this is?:
James Doakes (Erik King) appears in the season 7 finale of Dexter on Showtime December 16
And what about Hannah? She knows Dexter's big secret. He must have considered that she would tell the cops what she knows--and that, coupled with what LaGuerta thinks she knows would seem to be all that is needed to seal Dexter's fate.
Finally, what is Debra going to do? as Hannh rightly points our, debra is being selective in her pursuit of justice by arresting Hannah and but Allowing dexter to remain free? Will Deb's conscience get the better of her and will she free Hannah? This screen shot would seem to imply that something big happens as Hannah is out of shakles and outside Dexter's apartment!

Update: TVGuide Dexter SPOILER:
Q: Will Hannah turn in Dexter during the DEXTER finale?
A: That will be the big question of the hour. But Michael C. Hall says Dexter may come to regret turning her in for more than one reason.
"I think he was open to a sense of possibility and open to a sense of a
legitimate future in a way that he never has been before and that's not
going to be an easy thing to dismiss," he says. "He believes that
Hannah does love him and will keep his secret. He, if nothing else,
believes she'll do it out of a sense of self-righteousness, that she was
able to keep secrets in a way that he couldn't."

Homeland : 'A Few Questions' Sneak Peek VIDEO
Carrie questions the team responsible for clearing the tunnel.
When last we saw Carrie (Claire Danes) she had, with Brody's (Damian Lewis) assistance, escaped from Nazir (Navid Negahban), called for help and returned to the warehouse in which she was being held. Upon her return, she began a solo search for Nazir, unaware that black ops agent Quinn (Rupert Friend) and a terrorist capture team were about to storm the place--which is where we pick up in Sunday's episode.
It's going to be very interesting because for one thing, how is Carrie going to explain exactly, how she got away from Nazir--that her lover--Brody made a deal with Nazir to kill the Vice President? I just can't see that going over well--though I realize that patriot Carrie would have died before she would have consented to such a thing. RIP V.P. Walden--you were a slimy bastard but Jamey Sheridan did a great job making us hate you.
Nazir evaded capture and in this Sunday's episode we may find out if he will be caught or killed or both--the sneak peek implies that he gets away but sneak peeks can be sneaky that way, as I'm sure you've realized. All the more fun to discuss what we think is going to happen, right?
Speaking of happenings, Brody's wife Jessica (Morena Baccarrin) finally bedded her true love Mike (Diego Klattenhoff) while at the safehouse, explaining afterward that she felt no guilt. When Brody finally showed up, things were awkward but upon Mike's exit Jess and Brody appeared ready to discuss their situation frankly (they both desire people that are not their spouse). But inconveniently, Brody was called away by Nazir and the discussion was shelved. I think the marriage is kaput, though. There's just nothing left between them besides the kids, who are very aware of Mom and Dad's very unhappy marital situation.
This week too, the 'mole' problem which goes back to season one, is again picked up--by Carrie--who is convinced that the only way Nazir could have gotten away was if said mole helped him. I don't know. There was quite a time lapse between her escaping, running out to the highway, trying and failing several times to flag down someone to borrow a cellphone from, phoning the 'home office', and then making her way back to the huge warehouse. Why couldn't Nazir have just slipped away, possibly using his own terrorist connections? I am glad the mole issue is at least being addressed because it's not at all a small issue. I've heard rumblings that Saul (Mandy Patinkin) is the mole which I don't believe, that Estes (David Harewood) is--he, I could've believed the mole last season but this far into season 2, I'm thinking he's more an asshole than a mole. At this point, my best guess is 'Danny,' the guy that got caught in the gunfight along with Quinn and who last we heard had a 50-50 chance of recovering. He showed up in the last episode having left Walter Reed Hospital AMA, arm in a sling, saying he wanted to help find Carrie--but who knows.
There's just 2 more episodes, people. This season has gone by in a flash. I've really dug it--the characters and the great writing/high tension of every episode have solidified my state of being hooked on this show and I'll miss Homeland when it goes on hiatus. So glad it was renewed for a third season!

Homeland TVLine Teaser:
To the surprise of some, Jessica recently “reconnected” (so to speak) with old flame Mike, and seems to have no regrets about it. “I think she is allowing herself to go there, not knowing what is going to happen – and that is OK,” Morena Baccarin told us of her character’s mindset. “She’s been depleted for so long in her relationship with Brody that she is just finally getting something for herself.” Though that something may seem newly messy now, with Brody appropriately suspicious of the rekindled affair, Baccarin promises that by the season finale airing Dec. 16, “There will be resolution” one way or another.

Saul catches up with an old friend and discovers evidence of covert
activities by Estes. Brody and Vice President Walden find themselves at
odds over the future of their political relationship, while Dana and
Finn come to terms with their own differences.
Season 2, Episode 9 of Showtime's "Homeland," "Two Hats."
Recap:
The episode opens with Estes, Quinn, Saul and Carrie puzzling over the disappearance of Brody.
Finally, Carrie has to be the one to say it: "He's dead. If not physically dead,
then operationally dead." If he's alive, then Estes' plan to roll up
Roya will surely kill him.
Homeland's episode 209, "Two Hats," which was on par with the best episodes of a spectacular season 2, kept both the characters and the audience on their toes as they piled on the intrigue.
Among the most "intriguing," happenings were Estes (David Harewood), Quinn (Rupert Friend), Saul (Mandy Patinkin)
and Carrie (Claire Danes) trying to figure out what Abu Nazir (Navid Negahban) has planned, and whether or
not they can trust Brody to help thwart those plans.
Even if Brody is telling the truth, there's
the possibility that Nazir is using him to throw the CIA off his trail.
Then you've got Carrie, Saul, Virgil and Max trying to figure out who "John X slash Peter Quinn" is working for
and what is 'the plan,' exactly?
Meanwhile, Jessica lost no time in hooking up with serious good guy "Mike Faber" (played by native Nova Scotian, Diego Klattenhoff) in the guest room of the CIA safe house.
Cut to Brody, who is, Surprise! alive. A clean-shaven Nazir bids farewell to Brody saying
he trusts in him because Allah trusts in him. As soon as Nazir speeds
away in his car, Brody runs to a restaurant to ask for a payphone and, when that
fails, a cell phone. He calls Carrie and tells her to move his family
somewhere safe, then wait for another call in an hour.
Carrie, who has a vested interest in seeing Jessica resume her affair with
Uncle Mike, sends him to scoop up the family and spirit them away to a luxe condo safehouse where they are free to pursue their passions:
Dana emanating gloom from every pore, Chris gazing like a simpleton at
all the flat-screen TV's, Jessica asking unanswerable questions about
Brody's mission, Uncle Mike cooking yet another breakfast...just like the family they would've been if Brody hadn't returned--which daughter Dana is now lamenting.
Brody calls again and says to Carrie, "Remember where we first met, and I
don't mean your office?" She replies,"In the rain?" Carrie goes where things got started between the two of them outside the veterans support group and jumps in the passenger
seat.
"I thought I was dead, Carrie," he says. She knows just how close he was. She has
to haul him in before Estes and the gang. Brody's recounting of his missing 12 hours is not 100% convincing. Whether he is still badly shaken and is eager to please or if the fact that he omits having prayed just hours before with Nazir, I really cannot tell. His story seems to be corroborated by dramatic reenactments. Does that
mean he's telling the truth? Or could they be dramatizations of his
lies? And how are we to interpret the scene of him praying with Nazir,
which he declines to mention for obvious reasons. Brody says Nazir has decided to "die taking the fight to the enemy." His
plan is to blow up 300 returning Special Forces soldiers at a
homecoming ceremony with Walden and Brody. Brody's mission is to get
Walden to let Roya cover the event with her camera van full of
explosives.
Carrie thinks Brody's telling the truth. The plan, she says, is
"quintessential Nazir." Everyone else is more skeptical. The best part
comes when Saul is watching on a closed-circuit TV as Brody pulls some
'confesses' to Carrie about how he 'only cares what (she) thinks'.
Quinn
creeps up to more closely listen to the interaction on the screen, and Saul says, "Think you're the only one who
understands that this fucker needs watching like a hawk?" Indeed.

NEWS:
'Homeland' Damian Lewis: 'I get lost in Brody's accent'
Damian Lewis has joked that he has trouble dropping the American accent
he uses in Homeland.
The British actor joked to GQ that playing American
soldier-turned-traitor Nicholas Brody on the Showtime series has odd
effects on his real-life speech pattern.
Homeland Season 2 on Showtime - Claire Danes & Damian Lewis (Cr:Showtime)
"At this point, I don't know what accent will come out when I order
coffee in the morning," Lewis joked.
He went on to quip that the brooding he does while playing the
conflicted Brody often makes him appear more intense than in reality.
"I know it looks like I'm thinking deep thoughts on the show, but I'm
probably just trying to remember my next line," he teased.
Lewis added: "[Brody is] a lot of fun to play because he behaves badly
in extremis."
The actor recently signed a new five-year deal to play Brody for seven seasons total on Homeland.

Let's see what else can I tell you but not truly spoil.
Debra (Jennifer Carpenter) finally comes clean to Dex about her (pre-catching him serial killing in the church) feelings about him, albeit in a way that I wouldn't have chosen. I thought it a bit too much of a stretch too soon after finding out sibling Dexter is a serial killer, to get all wrapped up in how appropriate Deb's feelings for her 'in-name-only' brother. (They were foster kids in the same foster family.) I get how they only have one another and she was very dependent and looked up to him all her life--that there would be sibling 'love'--but even off-screen, this stuff sometimes happens.
Dexter has a definitive reaction to the news which will complicate/probably kill any future love affair potential.<exhale>

More DEXTER Episode 708 Promo PHOTOS and DEXTER 707 Recap (Excerpt) after the jump:
Chris Hemsworth strikes a pose in new behind-the-scenes PHOTO set from his Thor sequel THOR: THE DARK WORLD:
It’s been a while since we last saw some images from the set of Marvel’s sequel Thor: The Dark World, but today some new photos have popped online featuring star Chris Hemsworth filming in London... Apparently the scene in question involves the character throwing his hammer down and summoning some good old-fashioned lightning.
Directed by Alan Taylor, the film also stars Natalie Portman, Christopher Eccleston, Anthony Hopkins, Idris Elba, Kat Dennings, and Tom Hiddleston.
The photos do tell part of the story. The Dana and the son of-the-VP boyfriend hit-and-run story ties up--pretty straightforwardly but there's a glitch, as you can see in the promo photos. Things look pretty hunky-dory with daughter and dad (Damian Lewis) now that Dana (Morgan Saylor) has unburdened herself and she and dad are on their way to the local precinct to fill out an accident report/confess. But just then--our Ms. Mathison (Claire Danes) steps into the picture , which is not at all cool with Dana or her dad.

Yvonne Strahovski as 'Hannah McKay' on DEXTER 'Do The Wrong Thing' on SHOWTIME
If you tuned into SHOWTIME'S two marquee series last night you don't need no stinking recap for them. One writer though, Drusilla Moorehouse, actually has a witty style of writing (and a sharp eye for details for what she's recapping) which makes her day-after blogs stand out from most of the rest. Even she however, missed what I consider to be the worst moment in the 7-year history of Dexter.
DEXTER/'Dexter' (Michael C. Hall) is deliciously twisted-- a big part of our fascination with the show. He has also been pretty asexual, which set up a sort of innocent paradox to his serial-killer persona.
Casting former "Chuck" fanboy goddess Yvonne Strahovski,to play Dexter's prey seemed pretty awesome--if Dex hadn't decided, after trussing her up on a kill table, to nix knifing her through the heart and instead untruss her with his knife and go all stabby with his throbbing member.
Of couse, being a 'sick fuck,' as his sister Deb might call her, 'Hannah McKay' was aroused by her near-death experience with Dexter and intiated the use of sex as a weapon. But, it was way too rape-like for me. It was repulsive and seemed written for cheap shock value. In three words: I hated it.
Here's a short bit from Moorehouse's 'Do The Wrong Thing' recap which you should read in it's entirety by clicking the link that follows it:
Meanwhile, Hannah gets her own flirt on with Dexter, dropping by his apartment with a more appropriate house plant: a spotted phalaenopsis, an orchid whose coloring resembles blood spatter. Placing it in his bedroom, Hannah says provocatively, "Now you can look at it when you wake up and when you go to bed." No wonder she agrees to Dexter's offer to "take [her] out," although she definitely expects the evening to end differently. Or maybe not. "This is what I need to fill my emptiness," marvels Hannah at a closed-down carnival where Dexter had surprised her, a substitute for Santa's Holiday Adventure, where Wayne promised to take her during their crime spree. Instead, she wakes up on Dexter's killing table. And as he holds a knife to her throat, she says fearlessly, "Do what you gotta do." And did he ever.
Killer Quotes"Something planty." --Dexter, when Hannah asks what kind of décor he's looking for "Don't be a cop tease," Deb when Sal hints at his theory about Hannah "I'd really like to avoid killing anyone in here -- they can get in the way of my being released," Isaak, warning George to get him out of jail "Guess I'm maybe kind of a morbid guy" --Dexter
Damian Lewis and Claire Danes star in HOMELAND on Showtime
Last night's episode of HOMELAND was far superior to anything Dexter was offering, despite the nit-picking going on with reviewers who, since they can't find much to criticize about the near-perfect offering, are instead seeking out 'experts in field' to debunk how the real CIA and FBI would do things and how the show, you know, isn't like real life. Note to all of you: It is precisely that reason why we watch television dramas--we get enough real-life in our every breathing moment not watching television. Remember, escapism is fun. Small children call it 'pretending'--it's really quite OK and in the hands of Homeland's makers quite excellent.
Here's a short excerpt from Moorehouse's 'A Gettysburg Address' recap which you should read in it's entirety by clicking the link that follows it:
...So Carrie summons Brody back to Langley to help out, where he admits to killing Bassel the tailor. While a forensics team plans to search his shop, the CIA orders Brody to meet with Roya. This time the task force manages to listen to the entire conversation ... or so it seems.
When Roya bristles at Brody initiating contact, he tells her that he's sleeping with Carrie, at her suggestion, and overheard Carrie mentioning Hezbollah during a phone call. Roya tells Brody she knows about Gettysburg (the mole strikes again?) and hints that they might find something in the tailor's shop. The task force is unnerved by an extended period of silence between the two -- ostensibly because of a bystander. But could they be communicating via other signals? Remember, this is the guy whom Carrie caught tapping out code on national TV "when everyone else was calling him the patriot of the century."
While Carrie stays in Washington, Quinn (Rupert Friend) joins the Gettysburg group. He's just about to discover Bassel the tailor's secret hiding place behind a wall when Hezbollah agents brazenly storm the shop, open fire on the agents, tear down the wall and walk out with a giant crate of no good.
In her grief and rage, Carrie confronts Rep. Brody at his office -- who of course denies any involvement in a setup. In the end, the anguished CIA agent ends up sobbing in his arms -- consoled by the man who not only murdered the Gettysburg tailor and almost detonated one of his suicide vests, but may have played a role in the latest attack.

Though Homeland season 2 was great from the first episode, we are just now getting into to some really heavy stuff. If you thought Homeland episode 3 was intense then buckle in because things are about to get more Topsy-turvy in episode 204. And if you think that HOMELAND might take a breather for episode 205, forget it. It gets even more crazy-compelling.
Like the best political thrillers, Homeland hooks you in, starting with its complex, conflicted characters. From as low as you think one might go then flipping and soaring to great highs the characters are bounding all over the place emotionally, psychologically, it's pretty wild. It's not lost on me that the tone of the show can seem to echo Carrie's illness, 'bipolar disorder.' Since Carrie is seemingly complying with her meds, its seems OK if Homeland itself takes us for a wild ride.
All I can say is there is some heavy stuff coming up. It's a constant, crazy rush from episodes 3-5 (and maybe beyond, it wouldn't surprise me.)
Homeland Episode 2.0 - 'He Made A Tape' VIDEO:
Saul arrives at Este's home with some intriguing evidence.
(Above: "the tape")
I love how Mandy Patinkin (above), as many people of a certain age would, refers to the digital recording as 'a tape'. It gives HOMELAND an authentic feel from smaller bits like this one to the real relationship that is present when Patinkin ('Saul,' Carrie's handler) is on-screen with 'Carrie' (Claire Danes).
I like too in this scene that Estes (David Harewood), who has just hear about the biggest piece of information he could ever get, does not lose his cool, or cede an authority to Saul. He instead insists on continuing to run things despite how not-great he's done on the whole Abu Nazir thing thus far.

Dexter: Warning! The stakes just got higher... again
Debra (Jennifer Carpenter) warns Dexter (Michael C. Hall) that if he continues with his 'life choices' 'bad shit' is going to find him and Harrison. She pleads with Dex to consider sending Harrison to be raised by Rita's parents with his half sibs, Aster & Cody. Dexter strongly resists the idea, arguing that he--Dexter can best raise and protect his son, no one else. It's fun to watch Debra go through stages of gaining some slight acceptance of the knowlege that her brother is a serial killer and then swings all the way to 'no way in hell' can she allow Dexter to kill one more person. Despite her shifting feelings she will ultimately pick a side but she cannot ever feel good about it.
Spoiler hint for episode 704 Dexter 'Run.'
Dexter gives up something precious in this episode.
I am an episode ahead in viewing Dexter and am really intrigued by the Dex/Hannah budding relationship. Something totally inverted from what I expected happened involving the two. It really was executed nicely, turning some rather plot-heavy tables on one of them.
Hannah is 'off' somehow. Her affect is...wooden. Now she speaks of 'rumour' that Dexter was the last person to speak to Wayne before his suidice by Mack truck. Why does she care, given especially what Wayne had told Dexter-- that Hannah wanted nothing to do with him? Strange. Why does she wish to know his last words and re-live something she said she was 'trying to put behind' her?
Just a quick note to remind you that Sunday has arrived and
that means another nail-biting, adrenaline-rush-inducing night of

She's been called "Dexter's new obsession"(!) Enjoy these (non-spoiler) promotional photos from Episode 7.03-7.05 of Yvonne Strahovski ('Hannah McKay'):

Homeland : Bipolarity (VIDEO):
Writer and Consulting Producer Meredith Stiehm discusses writing a bipolar character.
An important part of the reason that HOMELAND resonates with people is the harrowingly realistic portrayal by Claire Danes of Carrie Mathison, a woman afflicted with the oft-misunderstood bipolar disorder. Instead of the 'disease of the week-type' of treatment that viewers are so used to seeing in television drama, Homeland has chosen, with the input of people including Writer and Consulting ProducerMeredith Stiehm (see video interview above), to integrate having bipolar disorder as a very important component of what makes Danes' former CIA agent seem authentic and even relatable. I really do think that is part of why audiences have taken to her character so deeply.
I excerpted an article after the jump which further expands upon how "Carrie's" affliction serves to make her character perhaps the most identifiable for many viewers. It all comes down IMO, to the creatives behind the show including Ms. Danes, taking their character's disease very seriously--not glossing over it nor amping it up above what is believable. It works to serve the story in such a compelling & compassionate way.
BTW, Homeland episode 3 is the one that I 'warned' you about. Your mind will be blown. I can't say any more without spoiling it but I will say it is definitely worth watching more than once!

HOMELAND Episode 203 – “State of Independence” SYNOPSIS:
Written by Alexander Cary Directed by Lodge Kerrigan
Fresh from her adventures in Beirut, a restless Carrie prepares for what she hopes will be a triumphant return to the CIA. Meanwhile, Brody learns that the Gettysburg bombmaker is on a terrorist watch list and in danger of imminent discovery. With no time to lose, Brody attempts a last-minute exfiltration. And Jessica takes risks of her own as she steps into the political limelight. (Source: Showtime)

NEXT on DEXTER Episode 7.02:
"Sunshine and Frosty Swirl"
Season 7, Episode 2
Episode Synopsis:
When a local convict claims he has new information regarding a
fifteen-year-old crime spree, Miami Metro sets out to unearth new
evidence on the case. While Debra attempts to cure Dexter of his killer
tendencies, the Mike Anderson case leads to the Ukrainian mob, and a
vengeful Louis won’t stop meddling with Dexter’s life.
So by now you, me, Dex and Deb have all somehow survived the immediate aftermath of Deb walking in on Dexter in mid-kill. That was one of the most fraught-with-tension moments in all of Dexter, I think. Debra, though severely shaken, managed to keep her wits about her even as the scene before her and how Dexter explained it just wasn't making any logical sense. Any wonder that this is only the beginning of the Dex and Deb dance that will continue for the foreseeable future? Gone is the sometimes bumbling Officer Deb of old, replaced by Lt. Morgan, who has not only justifiably gained confidence in her abilities but now has the power to destroy Dexter's world, a thought that would have never entered her mind prior to her gruesome discovery. She did after all surprise him at the church because she wanted to confess being 'in love' with him. (Sidenote/small SPOILER: Dexter EP's have confirmed that by mid-season Dex and Deb will have had (some permutation of) 'the discussion' that Deb had intended to have with her brother prior to the 'big reveal.'
Dexter however, has not really altered his perception of anything. Within seconds of being discovered and with decades of wearing a facade of a non-sociopath, Dexter snaps into course-correct mode, making excuse after excuse for what Deb is witnessing, many of which seem entirely plausible--unless you are blowing smoke at Deb the bulldog, who is not gonna let go of this bone until she fully wraps her head around it and when she deems that the pieces now fit. Dexter was beginning to think he was getting a handle on the damage control that was mandatory after being caught, literally red-handed, but the very final moments in the premiere episode begged a very different question.
Stayed tuned for episode 2 which is even more mind-blowing that the premiere episode!
The new season of Dexter feels like another 'Trinity' or season 1 or two. Very brisk, the acting is primo (as always) as actors who seemed underused are getting more screen time doing pretty cool, interesting things. All-in-all Season 7 offers us a genuinely re-energized Dexter.
Oh yeah.
Dexter is now talking to Deb about his 'Dark Passenger!'
Jennifer Carpenter and Michael C. Hall in Dexter, premiering on Showtime Sunday Sept. 30 (Credit: Showtime)
Just hearing those words tumbling from his mouth, rather than his thoughts via Michael C. Hall's ubiquitous (and exceptionally listenable) voice-over is weirdly creepy.
Jennifer Carpenter is being given some serious screen time as Dex's sister Debra, grappling yet again with some seriously fucked-up shit. The most serious ever, to be precise.
Part of Deb's and Dex's world's have just ceased to exist. Deb screams at Dex after yet another gut-wrenching revelation by him, 'I will never be OK!' In fact, in the first couple days in the aftermath of Deb's discovery of Dexter's murderous streak, Deb remarks to him that Dex 'is a sick fuck,' and that she 'almost turned (him) in this morning.' Dex is a very unhappy camper and Deb is barely keeping it together in a mission to save her brother.
Deb is discovering one horrifying thing after the next and she's only seen Dex in action once. What happens if she 'breaks' (so to speak) and turns him in? This question is one of many surely plaguing Dexter as we begin season 7.

DEXTER's Early Cuts has just released its next episode. In this chapter, Dexter's on the hunt for the prostitute killer, what will he dig up?
Edit/ After re-watching these 'Early Cuts' and having viewed Dexter's season 7 debut (on Showtime Sept 30) I can see a strong tie-in between the 'old' Dex and Deb and the present day brother - sister unit. Dexter and Deb's behaviour in the present took shape years ago and the Early Cuts are excellent at adding dimensions to the Dexter-verse!
