DADDY'S BACK
It's here, the fourth season of Dexter-well the trailer anyway. Screened this week at Comic-con, it would seem it picks up right where season three left off...

You got a long wait until we air it first here in the UK, but we think its worth it.
DUI NOTICE
Spies don't get fired, they get burned....burned indeed.
Jeffrey Donovan isn't as convincing a spy in real life as he is on hit TV show Burn Notice, as the not-so-stealth actor was recently arrested for driving under the influence. Not only was he driving drunk, but Donovan had to swerve his car in order to avoid a collision with a police car! Talk about being in the wrong place at the wrong time. According to a very reliable celebrity online blogging site...Jeff claimed he only had one, two, three glasses of wine, oh and a benadryl. Those damn allergy pills! Get you every time.
Jeffrey, Jeffrey Jeffrey-what were you thinking.
Burn Notice season one returns to FX next month.
TONIGHT, BLOOD IS SPILLED

This season has reached record breaking ratings in the US, so save some cash, don't risk going out and getting mugged, or even struck by lightening. Stay home tonight and watch the best thing on television since Michael Jackson's memorial. But we promise, you wont be sorry.
WOOD YOU BUY THIS?
Do you think of yourself as an artsy fartsy? And by that I mean, do you like pretty pictures? Well, if you do, and you got oh something like a few thousand pounds cash under the mattress, then may we suggest you surf on over to ebay and bid on a painting of what we think is Ronnie Wood as a Vampire, biting a fair maiden...(could it be Jo, or maybe that Russian temptress?) The objet d'art was painted by famous pop artist Paul Karslake, well known amongst stars like Michael Caine and the Rolling Stones. Apparently Paul is a huge fan of True Blood and thought that Vampire Bill reminded him of Ronnie!
If you're a fan of his work, then I would hurry up and place your bid, as the auction ends on Thursday, one day before True Blood finally airs on FX!!!
TO INFINITY AND COMI-CON
True Blood. tick. Family Guy. tock. American Dad. tick. The Cleveland Show. tock. Lost.tick.24.tock.Fringe.tick.Dollhouse.tock.The Simpsons.tick...you get the idea.
We at FX are counting down the days to one of the biggest Comic-Cons to date. Geek hang-out turned news breaker haven, July 23-26 will be the television event of the year. We can't wait to catch a sneak peek of Seth Macfarlane's new Star Wars parody follow up of Blue Harvest, "Something, Something Dark Side..."
Apparently there are going to be an infinite number of panels as well this year so if you plan on going, look out for Kiefer Sutherland and Freddie Prinze Jr on the 24 panel, the usual Family Guy crew and those confused lot on the Heroes panel.
Rumour has it that the conference is going to surprise us with a screening of new musically-themed show Glee, steering clear of the event's traditional genre and mythology-based properties...I'm trying not to be too skeptical just yet-what do you think?
