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.

Is There Any Way Back For Deb From Cop To Killer or Has Dexter Destroyed His Sister?
Jennifer Carpenter as Deb and Michael C. Hall as Dexter in 'Dexter' Season 8 (Cr: Showtime)
The cast and crew of Dexter discuss Debra's progression from cop to killer.
The first time we met Dexter's Debra Morgan (Jennifer Carpenter) on the job, she was on the street--literally. She was so far down the rung of the cop hierarchy that she worked undercover as a prostitute and knew all the working girls on a first-name basis.
As time moved forward, so did Debra, until the day she achieved her dream of becoming a detective. Deb was very good at what she did and probably would have remained working as a detective for the foreseeable future. But Deb's future became something that never, in her darkest dreams, could she have imagined. Because her boss, the hyper-ambitious, unethical Maria LaGuerta used her as a pawn, Debra was thrust into the role of Lieutenant of Miami Metro, a job she neither desired nor was in any way prepared for.
Deb however, was determined to make the best of it and she was managing OK until her world fell apart when she literally walked into a crime scene--that of her beloved brother Dexter (Michael C. Hall), stabbing his latest prey right in the heart.
In shock and disbelief, Deb agreed to allow Dexter to cover up the crime but she insisted he stop killing altogether. Dexter, for his sister's sake, tried to resist his urges, but in the end he went back to killing, which became an insurmountable problem for Debra.
LaGuerta again forced her way into the picture, only this time she was in pursuit of Dexter who she believed was the Bay Harbor Butcher instead of the deceased Sgt. Doakes. Ultimately, in a container in a shipping yard, Debra had to make the choice between sparing Dexter and effectively condemning her brother to death for his crimes or killing Dexter, which she found impossible to do.
As we open up Dexter's final season, six months have passed since the moment that Deb changed from a cop to a killer. As Dexter laments in this Deb-centric video, he has destroyed his sister.
Where can the two possibly go from here? Might Deb embrace a dark side of her own--and what form would that take? Meanwhile, how is Dexter to help Deb when he's still indulging his darkest side and she cannot bear the sight of him? It's gonna be very interesting to see where season 8 takes them--and us!

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!

Nurse Jackie Season 5: Next on Episode 4 (VIDEO) & Good Doc, Bad Doc Cast Interviews!
Edie Falco as Jackie and Adam Ferrara as Frank in Nurse Jackie Episode 5.04 "Lost Girls" (Cr: Showtime)
Looking at the screencaps (above) from the Nurse Jackie promo for episode 5.04 "Lost Girls,' one thing in particular stands out. Other than when she's directly interacting with her girls or with BFF Dr. O'Hara, we never see Jackie look this happy. It's a completely different Nurse Jackie because unlike the forced smiles when she was abusing painkillers, this is a real 'whole face' smile. It's very attractive, don't you think?
However, real life has a way of breaking in and smiles fade soon enough. In this episode, Jackie must deal with both her girls acting out. It may be due to the discord that the separation and custody fight caused or in Grace's case, it may just be the terrible teens. Jackie also must deal with the still obviously smitten, Eddie. They have to work together and Jackie stills cares for him so she comes up with a simple way to make sure they are on the same "page". It's a really nice scene and there's a sense of an end--finally--to the air of hostility between them.
We are still getting to know the seemingly inept, iPhone-addicted Dr. Roman. She's a master manipulator of men and she is quite successful, especially concerning Coop (shocking, I know).
Akalitus's memory issues make have put a patient with a secret at great risk, not to mention All Saint's, but could it be possible that we've underestimated her? Tune in for all this and much more!
NURSE JACKIE 504 – “Lost Girls”Episode Details
An agitated and heavily medicated Jane Doe is brought into the ER. Jackie and Kevin are called into Fiona’s school because she’s been acting out in class. Jackie catches Grace sneaking around the city to see her much older boyfriend. When Jackie gets back to the hospital, she learns that Akalitus lost Jane Doe just as her concerned husband shows up at the hospital. Akalitus tells Jackie that the “concerned” husband has been drugging Jane Doe and she’s helping her get to a safe house. When Prentiss finds out, the nurses unite to take the blame, but he surprises them all by saying if this happens again they should come to him.

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.

More Behind-the-Scenes Footage from True Blood Season 6!
Eric Northman (Alexander Skarsgård) Cr: HBO
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.

True Blood Season 6 SPOILER Alert!
At the end of True Blood season 5, Ex.-Rev. Steve Newlin (Steve McMillian) was keeping Luna's (Janina Gavankar) daughter Emma as a pet, while Luna and Sam (Sam Trammell) were captive in vampire HQ. All hell was breaking out everywhere, inside and out of the HQ, so the ex-Rev. was enlisted to encourage his flock to chill via satellite televised signal.
Off-screen, Sam and Luna incapacitated Newlin and Luna did the very-bad-for-you, potentially lethal, shape-shift into a real person (become their twin) which, did I mention, was sometimes lethal, as it was for Sam's lil bro, Tommy?
Last we see of Sam and Luna, she has passed out (or died) from the effort of faking being Steve Newlin for the TV audience whilst all hell was breaking loose in vampire HQ on account of Lilith, now "Billith'.
Based on the fact that Alcide (Joe Manganiello) and his number 2 as well as grandma 'Martha' (Dale Dickey, see caps), are caring for little Emma, it would seem that Luna did not survive the season 5 finale.

Stephen Moyer (Bill Compton) directs an episode of True Blood season 6 (Credit: HBO)
You may recognize the guy at top in the director's chair. That is Stephen Moyer, who co-stars on True Blood as vampire Bill Compton. Last we saw him was at the end of season 5 after he bought the hype about the ancient vampire 'Lilith', drank her blood, and went down the rabbit hole. Bill was at vampire central command, blood-encrusted, naked, and really, really angry and it appears that he's about to wreak the ultimate havoc--burn the place to the ground.
It would seem then that Sookie (Anna Paquin), who was at vamp HQ with Eric and 'Billith' when last we saw her, must have escaped to be able to confront Jason as he's about to put a wooden bullet through Eric's sister, Nora Gainesborough (Lucy Griffiths).
Jason (Ryan Kwanten) is still clad as he was when he and others infiltrated Vamp HQ. and others, humans,vampires and shifters, he was with have not yet had their "Waiting Sucks' teases yet. But, as we get closer to the June 16 premiere date of True Blood on HBO we should be able to put more pieces together beyond one of the first to be looked at: How much time has elapsed since the last scene of season 5?
From the shots we've seen thus far of the True Blood season 6 cast, we are picking up right where we left off.
If you're gonna put a bullet through Eric's sister's chest, it's going through me first. - Sookie to Jason in re: Nora

I'm going to bet that the idea of Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) marrying Sansa Stark (Sophie Turner) to both 'do something' with the girl, and to keep her close as the war of the kingdoms continues, was Cersei's. She looks way too pleased with herself. If that is what is happening in the sequence of shots above. I'm going strictly on Tyrion's facial expressions and a single snip of dialogue that may or may not be from this scene (can't tell).
“Kissed by Fire”
Debut: SUNDAY, APRIL 28 (9:00-10:00 p.m.)
The Hound (Rory McCann) is judged by the gods; Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) is judged by men.
Jon (Kit Harington) proves himself; Robb (Richard Madden) is betrayed.
Tyrion (Peter Dinklage) learns the cost of weddings.
Written for television by Bryan Cogman; directed by Alex Graves.
I've watched the first five episodes of the new season of Nurse Jackie after having watched since it premiered 4 years ago. I am so very pleased with it and I think you will be, too.
At it's core, the show is about a head nurse who outwardly, has it all together--she's extremely competant, a leader, instills confidence in others--then it spins out of control due to her drug addiction. By this season's opener, Nurse Jackie has gone to rehab, completing eight of the steps, and has been sober for about 9 months, give or take. But she insists on staying sober by playing by her own rules which makes for a razor thin line for Jackie to walk while staying on top of her 70-hour a week job, going through the wrenching emotional mechanics of a divorce/deciding who gets the girls. Could their be room for romance, too? That would be a first--but then, so is her sobriety so don't miss what will be the best ever season of Nurse Jackie.

'Shameless' : Season 3: Episode 12 - Directing a Scene (VIDEO)
Shameless Director Mark Mylod discusses filming the season 3 finale.
William H. Macy and Ethan Cutkosky in the Shameless season 3 finale ( Cr: Showtime)
Most of Shameless' season 3 finale, 'Survival of the Fittest' was bittersweet. Beginning with Fiona's desperate attempts to contact Jimmy, whose phone is at the bottom of Lake Michigan, as Jimmy himself may be, to Lip getting his high school diploma and finding out he has a full ride to MIT--for which he thanks Mandy. Then we had Ian forging an ID for himself, saying he's 18 y.o. old and joining the Army. Karen, Jody and baby Hymie packed up for Arizona and left Sheila an empty-nester. More bitter than sweet, is that the love that both Debs and Carl have for their their wayward father is as strong as ever as Frank's years of drugging and drinking catch up to him and he lands, seriously ill, in the hospital.
The video above dissects the scene with Carl making his way to his dad's hospital room in the dark of a wintery Chicago night, in hopes of helping Frank to heal.
Read on for a short excerpt of the excellent interview with Emmy Rossum (Fiona) in which she talks of if Jimmy and Fiona are really over and the making of that memorable coffeehouse scene that preceded his disappearance.
Justin Chatwin as Jimmy & Emmy Rossum as Fiona in Shameless Episode 3.11 (Cr: Showtime)
“I take it that at the end of Episode 11, you’re to assume that he got on the boat and he’s not coming back,” says star Emmy Rossum. “We saw what happened to the last person who got on that boat. Remember? The first guy in the first episode, they chopped him up and they threw him off the boat.” Given that Beto tossed Jimmy’s phone in the water, Rossum believes there are only two options: “We’re supposed to assume that Jimmy is either gone to work for the family down in Brazil, or he’s done in Chicago.”
With her boyfriend MIA and not returning her calls, Fiona will be “very worried” and will blame herself for driving him away, especially after the way they left things during their epic coffeehouse clash.
“...she will assume in Episode 12 that she caused this. She hasn’t heard from him. They had a big fight. She said, ‘Don’t come home,’ and now he’s not calling her back. So she will think that she basically told him to [leave]... not that he is involved with all these gangsters. She doesn’t know any of that.”
Whatever happens to Jimmy – and it remains a mystery even to the actress, who says the series shot different takes for his storyline – “it’s a pretty big turning point” for the character.

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.

*Question: I was wondering if you had any scoops as we head into Sunday’s finale of the Showtime series, Shameless?
Ausiello: Although the penultimate episode strongly implied that Jimmy was about to sail away to his death, Emmy Rossum tells TVLine that his ultimate fate remains a mystery — even to her.
”They shot a bunch of different things [in the finale] in terms of Jimmy, and they’re not telling us what they’re airing,” she says. “So I’m not really sure how the season ends, to be honest.”
Meanwhile, Rossum says we should also be “worried about Frank, because we’re going to see him take the biggest toll in the finale.”

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.

Rose Leslie as Ygritte in Game Of Thrones Season 3 (Credit: EW)
You may think you know how brutal HBO’s beautiful, dark, twisted fantasy Game of Thrones
can get, but to paraphrase Wildling temptress Ygritte: “You know
nothing about season 3.” Based on roughly the first half of the third
novel in George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire series, A Storm of Swords,
this season continues the epic story of rival families vying
for power in a fantasy kingdom where winter and summer last for years.
It includes some of the most rousing moments of
triumph in the saga’s five-book (so far) histroy — as well as its
most bloody casualties. ...“Emotionally, this season really goes for the jugular,” Thrones executive story editor Bryan Cogman tells Entertainment Weekly in this week’s issue. “In some cases, quite literally.”...
Showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss are reluctant to raise
expectations any higher, but are optimistic...One
particular “Scene Which Shall Not Be Named,” as Benioff called it, left
the Thrones team devastated. “I’ve never seen the crew so
emotional,” Benioff says. “If the scene has that effect on the people
making it who know what’s coming, if they’re that overpowered, I think
it’s going to have an overwhelming effect on people watching it.” (cont.)
This season, the Lannister family backstabbing is ratcheted to a new
level now that Lord Tywin (Charles Dance) has returned to King’s
Landing. Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke) struggles to purchase a
merciless eunuch army. Kingslayer Jaime (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) attempts
to escape the confinement of his noble escort Brienne (Gwendoline
Christie). Jon Snow (Kit Harington) infiltrates the rival Wildling camp
led by Mance Rayder (Ciarán Hinds), while the mesmerizing Ygritte (Rose Leslie)
tries to melt Jon Snow’s heart.
HBO's Season 3 adaption of Game of Thrones is one that has long been anticipated by fans of the George R.R. Martin epic fantasy series "A Song Of Ice & Fire."
Based on parts of book 3, this season some of the most compelling characters get into some of the most memorable situations of the entire series thus far.
Diana Rigg as Lady Oleanna (Cr: EW)
Diana Rigg will play a character that stood out for her extreme directness, her lack of desire to suffer fools and her ability to scheme. It should be an absolute joy to see Rigg take on the pivotal role of Lady Oleanna Tyrell.
As Blackwater Bay cools, the victors consolidate their power
and rebuild King’s Landing. But new challengers for the Iron Throne
rise from the most unexpected places. Characters old and new must
navigate the demands of family, honor, ambition, love and – above all –
survival, as the Westeros civil war rages into autumn.
Based on the bestselling fantasy book series by George R.R.
Martin, GAME OF THRONES is an epic story of treachery and nobility set
on the continent of Westeros, where summers and winters can last years,
and only the lust for power is eternal. The Emmy®- and Golden
Globe-winning series returns for its ten-episode third season SUNDAY,
MARCH 31 (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET/PT), exclusively on HBO, followed by other
episodes on subsequent Sundays at the same time.
As season three begins, the Lannisters hold absolute
dominion over King’s Landing after repelling Stannis Baratheon’s forces.
Yet Robb Stark, King in the North, still controls much of the South as
well, and has yet to lose a battle. In the Far North, Mance Rayder has
united the wildlings into the largest army Westeros has ever seen. Only
the Night’s Watch stands between him and the Seven Kingdoms, but nobody
knows what happened to its Lord Commander and the force he led beyond
the Wall.
Across the Narrow Sea, Daenerys Targaryen – reunited with
her three growing dragons – ventures into Slaver’s Bay in search of
ships to take her home and allies to conquer it.
Returning series regulars on GAME OF THRONES this season
include: Emmy® and Golden Globe winner Peter Dinklage (Tyrion
Lannister), Michelle Fairley (Catelyn Stark), Lena Headey (Cersei

Taylor (Locke).
Jon is brought before Mance Rayder, the King Beyond the
Wall, while the Night’s Watch survivors retreat south. In King’s
Landing, Tyrion asks for his reward. Littlefinger offers Sansa a way
out. Cersei hosts a dinner for the royal family. Daenerys sails into
Slaver’s Bay.
Written for television by David Benioff & D.B. Weiss; directed by Daniel Minahan.
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.

Are there major spoilers in these Dexter on-set shots?
'Dexter' - Season 8 - Behind-the-Scenes Set Photos of Deb (Jennifer Carpenter)
There may well be. Take a look at Jennifer Carpenter, who plays Dexter's sister Deb. Have you ever seen her dressed like this? I'll answer. No. Never. Super-long crimped hair and super-short cut-offs make for a sexy 'day-at-the beach' look. But, she's not at the beach. Deb is a workaholic and last we saw of her she was wearing blazers as part of her higher authority cop look.
Could Deb have quit the Miami PD? Think about it. Unlike Dexter, Debra is not accustomed to faking it every day of her life--and to have to walk into a building full of cops each day after murdering Maria LaGuerta in cold blood? To me, that says at least a temporary leave. If you have some other ideas feel free to share them in the comment section!

Deb's (Jennifer Carpenter) new ride on Dexter season 8 (June 2013)
I realized just prior to the beginning of Dexter season 7 that the actor that plays Dexter's sister Deb, Jennifer Carpenter (Twitter name: @J2thecarpenter), is an excellent source of behind-the-scenes information about Showtime's Dexter, which as you probably know is returning this JUNE(!)
Dexter season 8 first read through Tweet
Unlike some celebrities that Tweet photos of their latest meal (or bowel movement), Carpenter Tweets really interesting stuff without giving away anything that would imperil her job. When she's not filming Dexter, she sends out some very funny stuff as well, often with attached photos. So let's look at some of the latest Tweets from 'Deb' to learn what's up with "Dexter" which returned to filming what is probably it's final season on February 11, 2013.

Yes, offscreen Carpenter talks much like her onscreen character (in her Tweets, at least).

It's silly to say, but when I take the wig off at the end of the day, I'm rather disappointed when I look in the mirror." Doubtful!
But really, right now is good: critical love, and massive viewership, and job assurance... Plus, she's plotting follow-ups to "my first real job." Like playing Holly Golightly on Broadway, or maybe making a ballistic comedy (Clarke laughs as often as some people blink, and doesn't mind being seen around L.A. with Seth MacFarlane)—or, better, crashing her other favorite shows: "I'd give my right arm to be, like, a random extra on Girls, just to walk past one of the scenarios. I'd love that more than anything. Or, like, a meth head on Breaking Bad. It'd be like Where's Wally?!" (Which you've gotta hear— her true, highborn British accent pronouncing the book's true British title: Wally!) "Only, again, without the wig, they wouldn't recognize me." Like picking Waldo out of a crowd without his hat. Or his dragons.

True Blood - Episode 6.03 - NEW Title & Casting Call
Episode 6.03 of True Blood will now be called "Abducted" (previously
known as Rock Hard Times) and there are several roles being cast for it,
including two recurring guest star roles: Dr. Overlark, 'a ruthless
50-year-old advisor to Governor Burrell' (recurring guest star) and Hido
Takahashi, 'a 50-year-old university science professor who likes to talk
about himself'. There is also the guest star role of Maggie, a pregnant
35-year-old who is upset because she thinks her husband has run away
with another woman, as well as two co-star roles, police deputies who
search a cabin.
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 prositute 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.
APOLLO'S Famous Towel Scene from BATTLESTAR GALACTICA Episode 208: 'FINAL CUT':
"Final Cut," Battlestar Galactica While D'Anna interviews Viper pilots by their bunks, Apollo tries to introduce himself.'
Until now, fans of Jamie Bamber (Apollo On the Sci Fi Channel's Battlestar Galactica) had to make do with the awesome but short clip of Mr. Bamber almost losing his very small towel in a memorable scene from the episode "Final Cut" on the tv series "Battlestar Galactica." No more. In an effort to raise awareness of the plight of black bears killed to make the Queen's Guard's caps--it takes one whole bear to make a single cap--Jamie got naked for PETA. (scroll down)
Jamie Bamber has long been a firm favourite on the sci-fi scene, with his ever-exciting role as Lee "Apollo" Adama in Battlestar Galactica. And now he's wooing UK audiences as DS Matt Devlin in the new ITV1 drama Law and Order. There's nothing quite like fighting for justice and helping those in need – and always look really good doing it, of course!
It didn't surprise us one bit that Jamie is like that in real life too. That's why he bared his skin in PETA's newest ad to help save black bears killed for their fur. When Jamie learned how Canadian black bears are killed to make the Queen's Guards' ceremonial caps, the British-born actor jumped at the chance to help. "I initially decided to do the PETA ad because a great friend of mine in L.A., Lucy Davis, had just done a similar ad, and I love Lucy and it was a cause I didn't know about – I'll be honest. So as soon as Lucy opened my eyes, I was thrilled to join her and do my bit."

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.'

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.

Emmy Rossum, who plays the most-awesome oldest daughter "Fiona Gallagher", brings us up-to-speed with the 3-4 months that has elapsed since last we checked in on our favourite South-side Chicago family. First of all, the Gallagher 'family' has expanded by two (and is about to add one more(!). Fiona's gotten her GED so the world should be her oyster, right? She might disagree. Jimmy/Steve has become a stay-at-home surrogate dad which should be a great opportunity for Fiona to get out of the house more...but seems to be having mixed results (something about a man with a mop?). Frank has been MIA for months and only Debs is concerned for him, and --no surprise--Veronica and Kevin are up to some new kinky endeavors. You have to tune into Shameless on Sunday to see it and believe it. And seriously, it's the middle of winter in Chicago, couldn't you use a good laugh?

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.”
A Life is Saved, A Love Lost in Homeland Season 2 Finale

HOMELAND Episode 212 (Season Finale) – “The Choice”
Carrie must decide where her heart really lies; Brody shares a drink
with Faber to consider the future of his family; Saul is tasked with a
secret mission; and Quinn makes a decision that may change everything --Written by Alex Gansa and Meredith Stiehm
Directed by Michael Cuesta
With the Creators: The Choice VIDEO
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
The wreckage left in the wake of a car bomb detonated during services for VP Walden
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.
Season 5 of Californication ended in a rather dark place: Hank (David Duchovny) was (possibly fatally(!) drugged by a bitter/crazy ex-girlfriend and based on the exclusive first look at Season 6, things will remain dark when the show resumes — at least for a little while.
"We pick up days after that in the hospital, where Hank has survived but she hasn't," Duchovny says. "This season kind of begins with Hank spiraling down."
"We go to rehab, but it's really just for comedic purposes," Duchovny says.
The video also offers you a first look at some of this season's guest stars. Tim Minchin plays a rock star wanting Hank's help in develop his book God Hates Us All into a Broadway musical.
Marilyn Manson and Maggie Grace play some of the characters Hank encounters in the rock 'n' roll world. Other treats in the clip: Charlie (Evan Handler) pretends to be gay to land a big client who wants a new agent ("gaygent") and Karen (Natascha McElhone) and Marcy (Pamela Adlon) are roomates.
Jorge Garcia will join the previously announced Maggie Grace in the new season of Showtime’s Californication.
Grace
has signed to play Faith, a groupie who develops a relationship with
Hank Moody (David Duchovny). Later, her fellow Lost costar Garcia will
make an appearance in one episode as an old contact from her past.
Garcia last appeared in the short-lived Fox drama Alcatraz from J.J.
Abrams.

It looks like Hank (David Duchovny) is literally going to be haunted by ex-girlfriend Carrie (Natalie Zea), who, after Hank broke up with her and left for California, burned down his New York apartment, then stalked Hank in California. Carrie's final destructive act, spiking Hank's drink with a potentially lethal amount of prescription drugs could prove the impetus for Hank to finally clean up his act. Can he, will it take, and would a sober Hank be a fun Hank?

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."

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!

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.

Fiona to Jimmy: What are you doin'? Jimmy: Burning all my clothes. Fiona: Why? Jimmy: Aw, you don't need to know.

All that and a bunch of promo PHOTOS & sneak peek videos, too!

Spoiler!!! Dexter is totally about to kill the guy in the photo!
But he's just a truly random (bad) guy so I feel OK about telling you that what is happening in the photo is exactly what's is going down in a mere second after you hit the 'play' button, if you chose to pause during this scene as you view it.
Dexter 7x08 Promo "Argentina" (HD) VIDEO:
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>
Dexter Sneak Peek VIDEO - All I Have Left:
Dexter confronts Debra about killing Hannah McKay.
Guess what/who 'Issak Sirko' (Ray Stevenson) is shooting at?

Michael C. Hall in 'Dexter' Episode 708
A call back to how Dexter learned to 'act human' in his working life in a police dept. He found that the folks at work liked him more when he brought donuts so he often did so.
DEXTER SEASON 7 – “Argentina” Episode 708 Synopsis:
Dexter tries to keep Debra in the dark about his relationship with
Hannah, but a surprise visit from Astor, Cody and Harrison throws a
wrench into Dexter’s plans. Now out of jail, Isaak renews his pursuit of
Dexter, while Quinn continues his power struggle with the Koshkas. Written by Arika Lisanne Mittman, Directed by Romeo Tirone

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.
