* There's a new Dexter trailer, which actually gives a decent preview of the season (unlike the earlier ones), so beware of spoilers. I gotta say, based on the trailer alone, it seems like they're doing everything right this season. At the same time, though, I recall seeing trailers for previous seasons that made things look better than they actually turned out to be - i.e. everything in the trailer came from the first 3 episodes or so, and then all the interesting stuff got dropped or wrapped up too easily. So, we'll see.

* There's also a trailer for season 3 of Downton Abbey.

* Jesse Plemons talks about Breaking Bad's shocker of an ending last week, and the inevitable Landry comparisons.

* Lucy Lawless will be guest starring on Parks and Recreation. Epic.

* Avengers 2 now has a release date. Mark your calendars. Also, I want RDJ to call out "Avengers Assemble" at my birthday party. Can we make this happen?

I have about 12% faith that this season of Downton Abbey will learn from past mistakes and return from its sophomore slump. In other words, (especially after watching that trailer) I'm now resigned to it being Not Really Very Good, again. :(

Also: PARKS AND REC! I've seen about 8 episodes now, and am loving it. News that Lucy Lawless will be on is def. happy-making. :)

Yeah, ditto. Although Not Really Very Good Downton Abbey is still better than most things, so I'll still be watching. Also because Michelle Dockery = flawlessness.

lol, I was in the video store today and saw S6 of Dexter on the shelf and then I was like, "Maybe I'll hate-watch it." What say you??

Oh, that's a tough one. Frankly, I don't even think hate-watching it would be much fun. I would certainly not spend money on it.
