Game of Thrones Season 3: Inside the Episode #7 (VIDEO)
Jackie continues to be pulled in opposite directions of the emotional spectrum. On the one hand, a nice, stable, funny guy is interested in her and they have begun to date. At the same time, Jackie's eldest daughter Grace, is acting out; she's lying and dating an age-inappropriate guy and in general, has a surly attitude. Even little Fiona is misbehaving enough that her school master has a conference with Jackie and Kevin. Then there's the issue of custody with Kevin and most profoundly, Jackie's tenuous sobriety. How much pressure can Jackie handle as she navigates her first year sober--without any kind of outside support? It's a question that will remain open until there's an answer.
Jackie starts her day telling Grace she’s not allowed to go to a school dance with her boyfriend. Jackie is nervous about her date with Frank later that night. Zoey and Thor decide they’ll help her get ready.

Prentiss and Zoey work in perfect harmony on a pregnant gunshot victim who collapses in the waiting room. Later that night, Jackie and Frank skip the fancy restaurant in favor of a pub. It’s a great date with a good guy. All is going well until Jackie’s phone rings: It’s Mike Cruz, urging her to lose the date.

At the same time, Grace and her friends sneak out to the dance and a surprise police raid separates Grace from Danny and all of her friends. Alone on the streets of New York, Grace frantically tries calling Jackie but all of her calls go to voicemail. Back at Cruz’s apartment, Jackie notices her missed calls and rushes out to pick up Grace.

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' 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.
"If you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention"

Arya lost her last, best friend when the ever-somber Melisandre paid an unannounced visit to the Brotherhood Without Banners. Despite Gendry's protestations that he wished to become one of the Brotherhood and his worth to them as a blacksmith, he was sold off to the red witch for a couple of bags of gold.
Arya called Mel out as the witch she is and SPOILER correctly predicted that Gendry's fate in the witch's hands would be grim. (Remember the line Mel had about Stannis not being only one with King's blood? Gendry is the bastard son of Stannis's brother, the deceased King Robert Baratheon.)
Melisandre fixed her gaze on Arya and most likely nailed it when she insinuated that Arya would be responsible for many deaths in the future. She also, in her trademark spooky way, told Arya that they would meet again.

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.

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!

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.

Maisie Williams as Arya Stark in Game Of Thrones episode 3.06 'The Climb' (Credit: HBO)
Next week's episode of Game Of Thrones is aptly named "The Climb' as it refers to the journey Jon Snow (Kit Harington) and the Wildings, led by Tormund Giantsbane (Kristofer Hivju), make to The Wall with the intention of climbing it and 'building the biggest fire you've ever seen'. Giantsbane, though he's told Jon he likes him, gives him a stern warning all the same: If Jon falls during his long slippery ascent, he is not to scream.
There may be other situations that have been previewed that might entail 'a climb,' as often with the duel/multiple-meaning titled eppys, at least one meaning is not literal.
Roose Bolton (Michael McElhatton) in Game Of Thrones episode 3.05 (Credit: HBO)
I'm concerned about Roose Bolton, who now holds Jaime Lannister and Brienne of Tarth's fate in his hands. He is said to be among the most ruthless of all the antagonists in Game Of Thrones.
Otherwise, we have this shot in the preview that is troubling. I have no idea what is wrong with Jojen (Thomas Brodie-Sangster)--it appears that he is having a seizure (?)

We know that in the next episode of Game Of Thrones, the red witch, Melisandre, is traveling to the Riverlands to meet with SPOILER Gendry (Joe Dempsie), of all people. Prior to leaving, she explained to Stannis that he was not the only one with the blood of a king and she was leaving to seek another. Perhaps Gendry's remark to Arya that he was tired of being beholden to others and wished to be a free man held more meaning than it seemed, foreshadowing the arrival of the witch and with her, what may entice him.

clammy and chilled, but she was strong, and gentler than he would have
thought. Gentler than Cersei, he thought as she helped him from the tub, his legs wobbly as a limp cock. “Guards!” he heard the wench shout. “The Kingslayer!”
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

It seems pretty likely, based on the most recent set photos of the scene and now, finished footage of Deb (Jennifer Carpenter) and Dex (Michael C. Hall) acting out the scene, that the time frame in which it takes place is just weeks after LaGuerta's death. Anyone that thought Deb would keep a stiff upper lip about the LaGuerta mess and soldier on , doesn't know Deb very well--and that probaby includes her brother, Dexter.
It will perplex Dexter how Deb can completely withdraw from him but I think there is the part of his brain that would reason that she needs time to 'get used to the idea' of how repulsive Dexter's behaviour really is. Dexter has beeen calling himself 'a monster' since the first epiosde; it is not 'news' to him.

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.
Learn more at http://www.sho.com/dexter
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.
To watch the clip, go to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dy6u5rXqN5o.
DEXTER stars Michael C. Hall in his Golden Globe and SAG Award-winning role as Dexter Morgan, a complicated and conflicted blood-spatter expert for the Miami police department. Season eight begins six months after LaGuerta’s murder – and Dexter is still managing life as a dad, brother, and serial killer. As Deb (series star Jennifer Carpenter) struggles to deal with the consequences of her actions, a mysterious woman comes to work with Miami Metro, offering first-hand information on Dexter’s past. The series also stars Desmond Harrington, C.S. Lee, Aimee Garcia, David Zayas, Geoff Pierson and James Remar.
It's kind of cringe-inducing watching Kevin (Dominic Fumusa) and Jackie (Edie Falco)
go for each other's jugulars but their breaking up was probably a good
thing as they were a pretty boring couple--life around them alone was
pretty airless.
If you haven't been spoiled yet on this it should not be a shocker:
Now-sober and in divorce (custody) proceedings Jackie starts back into
the dating game.
Jackie and Kevin are not setting really good boundaries for their
'ex' marital spats which, come to think of it, they didn't bother doing
when they were a supposedly happy couple, back when Jackie was a
pill-head who bedded the pharmacist to get painkillers to feed her
addiction. Yikes, there's been forward movement--for Jackie, anyway, as
you'll see in the next handful of episodes. BIG emotional ups and downs,
including examining a parent's worst nightmare via a former colleague
who lost his son--Jackie's treatment program buddy--OD'd and died so his
father--Jackie's boss upped and quit as head of the hospital. He wants a
private exit interview with Jackie--stat!
Their have been some
really fresh casting choices and surprising developments in the story
but the 'best' surprise in season five is about how great Nurse Jackie remains. Seven
episodes in to Nurse Jackie's- fifth season and this is my favourite of all the seasons so far.

Jackie, overwhelmed by the day, downloads to the only person who will
understand. She calls Charlie Cruz’s voicemail. When Jackie gets home,
Zoey surprises her with the girls, cake, a piñata, and a surprise Skype
guest, O’Hara. Grace releases her wrath on the piñata.

Since Dexter has been murdering people for 20 years, he's able to glide smothly past Maria LaGuerta's death by Deb's bullet (after Deb was forced by Maria-- to chose betweem Maria and Dexter).
Deb, never the picture of emotionally stability, has something to process or 'live with' for the rest of her life and she must reconcile herself with it, fully which the latest season 8 shots seem to imply that she's not as indicated on a recent DEXTER post on this blog.
Dexter has fallen from revered older brother to sociopath older bro with whom and because of whom, Debra has jeopardized her career/her life.

- New scenes - after the jump:
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.

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.

This is a unique recap, not just of the happenings in Game Of Thrones episode 301 but additional scenes that tie Arya, Jaime and Brienne's season 2 story to the what I'm guessing will be in episode #2--and it's close-captioned!
I really missed having any scenes in the Game Of Thrones premiere episode featuring Arya especially, as she is the most compelling character in one of the most-heartbreaking situations. She quite literally has no one fending for her--she's the leader of her little pack of 'runaways' and will continue to be, through fierce circumstances that would be daunting even for an adult, never mind a girl of perhaps twelve or thirteen.

*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.”

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.
Hard to be optimistic about Fiona (Emmy Rossum) and Jimmy's (Justin Chatwin) chances for reconciliation any time before season 4 as this penultimate Sneak Peek VIDEO 3 illustrates pretty profoundly.
I used to wish for them to have a happily ever-after, but truly, Jimmy/Steve is not a good guy.
Throughout season 3 he played the role of devoted partner to Fiona (at least when he wasn't boning his wife, Estefania) and stand-in dad to the Gallagher brood but ultimately, he is a thief, a liar and a cheat. Fiona, despite her horrible upbringing and grim life is a better person than he is. She deserves better so I'm rooting for this relationship to go down in flames.

Game Of Thrones Season 3 starts shortly after season 2 ended (mostly)
Game of Thrones, Season 3 - Isaac Hempstead Wright (Bran)
Game Of Thrones Season 3: Inside The Wildlings (VIDEO)
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.
(Cr: HBO)

Frank becomes the poster boy for Gay Rights in Shameless this week
Shameless Episode 3.09 "Frank The Plumber" (VIDEO)
Episode 3.09 Description -
Fiona starts a new office job but has a hard time fitting in with the corporate culture. In an attempt to get medical coverage, Frank inadvertently becomes involved in the gay rights movement where he meets Abraham Paige (guest star Bradley Whitford), a powerful activist. (SOURCE: Showtime)
Of the 15 promo photos, the one of Ian (Cameron Monaghan) sitting on his porch steps with a really messed up eye is the one that most interests me. I have no spoilers for this episode but I get the feeling that Mickey (Noel Fisher) did this to him. That Mickey is a real rotter. I can see being attracted to dangerous boys but he's a nasty, dangerous boy and Ian could do way better. Maybe he will.
I was noticing last week how nicely Emma Greenwell as Mandy is meshing with the cast. She's not the season 1 actress that played Mandy but I really like her and the nuances to her character that we are seeing through her involvement with Lip. Like her aunt said, she's the most decent of all the Milkoviches.
Finally, the promo photos strongly indicate that Lip's (Jeremy White) ex, Karen has made another drastic choice. The three shots of her mother, Sheila (Joan Cusak), with Shelia being pampered by Debs (Emma Kenney) and a shot of the two of them indulging in a big hug, tells me that both of them have had some really emotionally wrenching times of late and that you can find comfort in the least-expected places.

The $15,000 'Game of Thrones' painting?
Scroll below to see more artistic takes on the world of HBO’s Game of Thrones courtesy of Austin’s Mondo Gallery.
The images are part of an exhibit that opened Friday, timed to the start of the South by Southwest film festival. Below are 10 original pieces from the exhibit. If you want to buy the first one, however, you have to pay the Iron Price — $15,000 for an oil painting that includes several of the Thrones-verse fan-favorite characters. The rest are more modestly priced.
Below are the first two posters in a series of eight creative images that will be unveiled starting today at the gallery’s new Thrones
event. Mondo, the collectible art division of Alamo Drafthouse Cinema,
is launching the poster series on the first day of the South by
Southwest music/film/interactive conference, which is seeing an
increased TV industry presence this year (Showtime, NBC, The CW,
A&E, Bravo and USA are among the networks with events planned).

One thing about the Showtime offer where with a Showtime subscription, you can watch basically this week's and next week's episode of Californication on two consecutive nights. That's great for the genral audience; it keeps people like me on my toes.
Though I thought I was doing pretty well keeping the episode sequences set right, I found a photo source that had gotten them wrong--and it made me double check even though I was so sure--unless the publicity peeps got things out of sequence, too. Not hard to fathom when you have two fresh episodes of the same show going out at essentially the same time. Yikes.

Tim Minchin, David Duchovny & Natasha McElhone in Californication Episode 607 (Cr: Showtime)
I nominate this episode as the most bizarre so far of Californication season 6, not specifically because of Marilyn Manson's guest starring turn, but because by bringing him and Tim Minchin as Atticus Fetch together, the level of oddness/insanity reaches completely new heights.
Even so, 'normal' family problems are brewing in the Hank-Becca-Karen family unit. Becca is still rebelling, going to great lengths to imitate her father's bad behaviour. An intervention involving Manson is staged and the results are pretty much what any functional person would expect.
With Charlie having realized that he still loves Marcy there is fertile ground to be mined--well maybe the ground isn't fertile anymore but it certainly is 'familiar,' as Marcy puts it.
Tune in Sunday night on Showtime to share in the craziness!

Despite the many jams the Gallagher kids have found themselves in, this set of 'cascading failures' seems a near-impossible one for Fiona to fix. Faced with losing
Liam, Carl and Debs to the system as well as losing the house due to Frank's (William H. Macy) decade-and-a-half of swindling the government by pretending to be the deceased Aunt Ginger, Fiona (Emmy Rossum) doesn't even have a moment to feel sorry for herself.
Emmy Rossum as Fiona in episode 8 of Shameless--the crisis continues (Cr: Showtime)
As the eldest Gallagher kid, Fiona has to act quickly and to steel herself for the next blow--and they just keep coming.
This story arc (episodes 306 - 308) has some of the heaviest, most heartfelt and splendid "Shameless" writing and performances I've yet seen on a show that has already been lauded many times for these qualities. There's nothing funny about a family being torn apart or losing their home but in true Shameless style, there's alway an undercurrent of humour at just how horrible and seemingly hopeless the situation is.
Meanwhile, life at Sheila (Joan Cusak) and Jody's (Zach McGowan) house is upended after an unexpected knock at the door (and I don't mean Karen returning) and Kev (Steve Howey) and V's (Shanola Hampton) quest for a surrogate pregnancy via her mother takes a turn for the ever-more-twisted.
SHAMELESS 307 – “A Long Way from Home” Episode Description
Knowing that Frank is the real reason DFS is on their case, Fiona
decides to seek sole custody of the kids. She just needs a full-time job
and a house. Fiona and Lip set out to forge Aunt Ginger’s will, and to
find a dead body to go with it.
Still in their respective foster homes, Debbie is forced into slave
labor in Kamala’s basement. Carl fights strict parental controls at
Cassius and Lanier’s. Ian confronts Mickey about Terry.
Frank prepares for his court appearance by getting sober and
attending AA meetings. When he learns of Fiona’s new custody plan, he
challenges her in court to maintain his parental rights. Though she is
forced to share rights with Frank, Fiona is ultimately granted
guardianship leaving Jimmy to wonder what that will mean for their
future.
Timmy Wong and his mother arrive to take Hymie. Sheila stages an
intervention to curb Jody’s sex addiction. Karen returns. And Lip learns
another will has already been filed with the court. (Credit: Showtime)

'In the Clouds' has brought us to the halfway point of Californication - season 6 but there's nothing 'half-a**ed' about this outing. In what is one of the funniest episodes ever, Charlie and The Widow find a way to cope with his revelation that he 'still loves his ex-wife' and with his deep fear of dying before he disembarks.
Later, after Atticus Finch has failed Faith's test, a surprised Hank gets some potentially life-changing news.

Shameless 'Cascading Failures' - The Gallagher kids are removed from their home & placed in foster care--can Fiona get them back?
Jeremy Allen White, Cameron Monaghan & Emmy Rossum in SHAMELESS Episode 3.06 – “Cascading Failures” (Cr: Showtime)
Though the Gallagher's have spoken not-quite-fondly of their previous encounters with the child welfare system, Shameless episode 3.06 – “Cascading Failures,” is the first time we see them removed and placed in emergency foster care. Unfortunately, Lip and Ian end up in a high risk-prison-like environment and Debs get tossed into an overfull house, where she is expected to keep her head down and stay busy doing childcare and clean-up for the 'lady' of the house. Meanwhile, Carl and baby Liam land in an upscale bi-racial gay couple's home which would be nice--except they are dead set on adopting Liam!

In Kevin and Veronica news, this episode brings forth the most outrageous sex scene that you've ever seen them in and if you know Kev and V, you know that means it will be beyond bizarre!

nowhere to be found, Fiona is forced to track down Frank and get him to
make a 'Father of the Year' appearance in court. It all seems to be
going well well until Fiona discovers that Frank's not the solution to
her problem - he's the cause. Meanwhile, Kev and Veronica recruit V's
mother as a surrogate and Mandy & Mickey's father, Terry catches
Mickey and Ian in a compromising situation.

Do Things Seem Like They Are Getting 'More Chaotic' On Shameless?
Emmy Rossum (Fiona) and Emma Kenney (Debs) in Shameless - episode 305 on Showtime Sunday nights (Cr: Showtime)
... was the question my spouse lobbed my way after last week's episode. With a chuckle I answered, 'Aren't they always?'
The Gallaghers lives continue to spiral into chaos as Debbie gets terrorized at the pool (guess the 90-seconds-holding-her-breath-plan didn't go as planned), Carl (wearing an I Beat Cancer t-shirt) believes he is a cancer survivor, Fiona's locked in the ladies room at work by her co-workers for not performing like they do, the Gallagher's literally have a dead body buried in the back yard (and the city sewer people are on their way to dig). And then there's the small problem of Jimmy's coping with his dad coming out. Just another day for the Gallaghers.

Episode Desciption - The city of Chicago gives notice that they're doing work on the sewer main. The problem? Aunt Ginger's bones are still buried in the yard and Frank needs to find her before the city does. Meanwhile, Fiona is picked on at work for not satisfying her boss. When Fiona fails to provide the support Jimmy needs, he turns to Este. Molly learns that she's a boy and Ned asks Ian to rob his wife's house.

Californication episode 6.03 'Dead Rock Stars' with Steve Jones, Maggie Grace, Tim Minchin & David Duchovny. this is an incredibly amusing scene.
If you, like me, have been following the on again/off again romance (mostly off) of Californication's Hank (David Duchovny) and Karen (Natascha McElhone) then by the season 5 finale you may have been getting your hopes up that finally the two might have a chance at a lasting reunification.
Since by now you've watched the first episode of Californication season 6 (and maybe even the second episode if you watch new episodes of CALIFORNICATION on Mondays a week early on Showtime On Demand and Showtime Anytime: http://youtu.be/i1UGP0meZZI) you know that that wish pretty much went the route of dear, demented Carrie (last seen on life-support).
I wish I could tell you it will get better but alas, it gets much worse, albeit in a very entertaining way.
By episode 3, Hank is discovered by Karen, half-naked and passed out with many other people of both sexes in a room filled with every element you would expect of wild debauchery. Rehab for Hank = epic fail. But don't lose hope as great opportunities are awaiting Hank--he just needs to get used to the notion of his book being turned into a rock opera on Broadway.
Hank (DAVID DUCHOVNY) reluctantly heeds the advice from his family
and friends, but muse to many-a-rock-star, Faith (MAGGIE GRACE) may be
his light at the end of the tunnel. Charlie (EVAN HANDLER) runs into
out-and-proud movie star Robbie Mac (JOHANN URB) and finds himself
taking drastic action in order to land the Oscar® winner at UTK. Marcy
(PAMELA ADLON) loses her resolve with Stu (STEPHEN TOBOLOWSKY), while
Karen (NATASCHA MCELHONE) lands a new job.
