Shhh...We Know Something We're Not Supposed to About Dexter
Dan Littlejohn/Showtime
Want to know a deep, dark Dexter secret?
Well, we have one to share, but we should warn you: It's something that is apparently so spoilery and so hush-hush that resident Dexter housewife Julie Benz freaked out when she heard that one of her costars told us about it.
Julie's reaction? "He said that?!" Followed by a quick: "They'll kill me if I say anything!"
So what is the big secret, who spilled the beans, and what else did we guess about Rita that made Julie's jaw drop?

Which Dramatic Dude Should Get an Emmy?
Dan Littlejohn/Showtime; AMC; Larry Watson/FOX; AMC/Carin Baer
An ad guy, a serial killer and a doctor walk into an awards show—wait, have you heard this one before? Some familiar faces in this category, to be sure, but who's got the chops to bring home an Emmy on Sunday?
Lead Actor, Drama
- Bryan Cranston, Breaking Bad
- Michael C. Hall, Dexter
- Hugh Laurie, House
- Gabriel Byrne, In Treatment
- Jon Hamm, Mad Men
- Simon Baker, The Mentalist
Our gossip guru Marc Malkin predicts: "Jon Hamm. He's pretty darn hot—and I don't just mean his looks. No matter where ya go and who ya talk to in Hollywood, the conversation eventually leads to him and Mad Men. People are mad for the Hamm."
What do you say?

This Just In: Get a Sneak Peek of Dexter's New Family
Randy Tepper/Showtime
• Dexter: New promo photos of Dexter season four have surfaced! The stills show Rita (Julie Benz) and Dexter (Michael C. Hall) living in marital bliss together with baby Harrison, who looks so cute you want to pinch him, but don't, since his dad's a serial killer.
• Smallville: Finally, the promo you Smallville fans have all been waiting for. The new clip is slightly different from the one shown at Comic-Con, but you still get to see Clark (Tom Welling) in the new super suit. Sadly, the love scene between Lois (Erica Durnace) and Clark is much shorter—don't blink around 1:07.
• Supernatural: Satan is coming! Seriously...watch the Supernatural season five promo, and prepare yourself for a devilish new season.
• Dollhouse: Fox has released new season two promo shots for Dollhouse. Did you miss Echo (Eliza Dushku)? Because if you didn't, get a load of what she looks like here and then try answering again.
• How I Met Your Mother: HIMYM is finally coming back to your television! Want to see Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) and Robin (Cobie Smulders) get closer? Yes you do!
Are you excited for the new photos and promos? Hit the comments to discuss which show you're looking forward to most.

Rise 'n' Shine: Jen & Brad Still Totally in Love…Not!
OK!
• Despite all the current warm fuzzies about the love between Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer, OK! claims to have a source that says when Jen and ex-husband Brad Pitt's eyes met, they both realized they still had feelings for each other. Our eyes met this cover story and we wondered if said source is a delusional romance novelist.
• Like many men before him, Tom Cruise behaved awkwardly when approached by his ex-girlfriend, Oscar winner Penélope Cruz.
• Pete Wentz continues to avoid coming home to wife Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and baby Bronx.
• The Twilight folks need to hand Kristen Stewart and her father a muzzle. Either that or a pink slip.
• We have a Secret for Dexter's Jennifer Carpenter.
• Dear Freida Pinto: You'll be fighting an uphill battle to win the heart of Leonardo DiCaprio from girlfriend Bar Refaeli. Not that we have anything against the hot Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue covergirl, but we'll be cheering you on. Love, Rise 'n' Shine

SAG Scoop: The Office, Dexter, Mickey & Milk

Copy machines and cats...just another day at The Office. Actually, it's more like Super Bowl night.
Jenna Fischer says expect utter lunacy on the Office episode airing Sunday immediately after the big game this Sunday. "Pam gets some family news that she and Jim have to deal with," Fischer told me yesterday on the SAG Awards red carpet, before she took off to shoot some photos she was planning to post on her MySpace page.
"The entire office goes berserk and there's complete mayhem," she said. "I can say that Jim and Andy do something insane with a copy machine, and Angela does something crazy with a cat."
And while you're waiting for that, here's what else I learned on the carpet:
Julie Benz Talks Dexter Cast Wedding
AP Photo/Matt Sayles
Showtime's fan favorite Dexter was completely shut out of any Golden Globe wins this year. (So. Not. Cool.) But the cast still had good reason to celebrate: the secret wedding of stars Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter.
"We champagne toasted [Michael and Jennifer] at our table," costar Julie Benz tells me. "It was a small, private toast. We're all so excited for them. They're just two wonderful people. They're such great friends to me, and we're all very happy for them!"
Pretty kind words for the woman whose new husband just ran off with his own sister, right? Oh wait, right, that's on the show. (Damn you for making your characters too believable, Dexter cast!)
So did any of the castmembers make it to the ceremony on New Year's Eve?

Dexter Boss Defends Controversial Finale
Showtime
It's the one thing no one expected to happen on Dexter's big season-finale last night: There were no tragic deaths. Hardly any bloodshed. And, oh yeah, did we mention that Dexter Morgan got married and even...wait for it...smiled!?
Did hell just freeze over?!
I just got off the phone with Dexter boss Clyde Phillips, who tells me: "Some of the blogs were disappointed [in the finale]. Not enough blood. They didn't want any subtlety. We stand by what we did, and we did a good job."
So why did the third-season finale go down that way, and what will happen next?
Clyde gives us the exclusive scoop...

Dexter Finale Preview: Does Rita Die?
Peter Iovino/Showtime
She's a fan favorite and the only thing good that's ever happened to Dexter Morgan. So Rita (Julie Benz) is one of the only few people who cannot be killed off of Dexter...right?!
This is the question many of you fans have been emailing in (frantically) about, as an unconfirmed rumor of Rita's death is spattering through the Internet. (Hope you're wearing your spatter suit.)
But is it true?
Dexter's third-season finale airs on Showtime this Sunday night (anyone else counting the minutes?), and today we went directly to Julie, Michael C. Hall and other cast members of this jaw-droppingly good series for scoop on Rita's fate and more...
