  Not that you can ‘go gay’, I use that term merely to illustrate a point, not as a factual thing. So one of the ‘straight’ characters is going to go gay in season 4 of “True Blood”, who it is is anyone’s guess at the moment, though if Perez Hilton is to be believed...

True Blood season 4 sneak peek

The start of this reminded me of a “Star Trek: The Next Generation” or “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine” set… anyone else? Then it all went a little “Charmed”. I like the idea of the fairies, but this looked a little tacky, still it’s always nice to see Gary Cole back on TV. I’m really...

Ryan Murphy’s FX pilot “American Horror Story” just snagged actor Denis O’Hare. He’ll be starring opposite Connie Britton in the pilot. There really isn’t much information in the press releases.

If you’re a fan of Dexter you’ll recognise Courtney Ford straight away as a key character in season four of that show. She’s got an interesting look to her – kind of like Olivia Wilde? – and she was great when she was in Dexter. Now Ford is headed to True Blood as Portia Bellefleur,...
