Comic-Con Trailer: Dexter Season 5
During the Comic-Con panel for Dexter the first trailer for the fifth season of the series was unveiled.

Jimmy Johnson Competing on Survivor: Nicaragua
Reports have surfaced that former Dallas Cowboys coach Jimmy Johnson is one of the contestants on the 21st season of Survivor being held in Nicaragua. Filming of the season began in late June which means it will be wrapping up in early-mid August and Johnson will be back in time for his NFL analyst duties on Fox.

2010 Emmy Nominations Announced
The nominees for the 2010 Emmy Awards were announced this morning for the show that will take place on Sunday August 29th. The HBO miniseries The Pacific led the way with a whopping 24 nominations while Glee was the runner-up with 19 of them. Other freshman shows to get good representation include Modern Family and The Good Wife. As much as I enjoy Glee the 19 noms just seems like a bit of overkill and I was disappointed that neither John Noble from Fringe or Zach Gilford from Friday Night ...

Prospects for a third season were never encouraging even before the axe came down. Ratings were poor (the recent season two finale got 74,000 viewers on its first airing) despite critical love and passionate fans and star Adam Scott was only contracted for another three episodes if there were to be another seas...
