Sometimes it is

oh, yeah it is but we have not had a police commissioner as together as Daniels. I don't think.

And no police officers as pretty as McNulty or Carver. They are mostly more like the ones assigned to drive the mayor-elect (presumed) around in the ep last night. And, too funny, I saw a full on Wiggums clone on foot patrol in the neighborhood on Sat.

However, our real-life mayor is actually more handsome and more rock and roll than Carcetti, his fictional counterpart. so there you go!

I suppose not. I was happy to see Lester back doing two of his things: the furniture and the Yoda thing.

Anyone else watching Dexter? God, that was a good episode. At the end, where he's sitting between the couple smuggling and killing the cuban immigrants, and he stops and asks them how their marriage works--I had to pause the show, I was laughing so hard. Brilliant.

Whooo hoo! Dexter got renewed for next season:

Showtime has given an early greenlight to a second season of one-hour thriller "Dexter" and is finalizing a deal to bring back Mary-Louise Parker starrer "Weeds" for a third cycle.

Announcement for the latter is said to be imminent.

Production on 12 new hours of "Dexter" will begin next spring for a premiere next summer. Renewal arrives after just five episodes of the current season have aired.

Based on the novel "Darkly Dreaming Dexter," skein stars Michael C. Hall as a forensics expert for the Miami Police Dept. who moonlights as a justice-seeking serial killer.

"Dexter" is a "home run for us, both critically and in popularity. The show was launched at the height of all the broadcast networks' fall launches and instantly became our highest-rated show," said Showtime entertainment president Robert Greenblatt.

John Goldwyn, Sara Colleton and Clyde Phillips are exec producers. "Dexter" also stars Jennifer Carpenter, Lauren Velez, Julie Benz, Erik King, David Zayas and James Remar.

Season finale airs Dec. 17.

I was trying so hard to pick up the first book today, because I totally have a fixation now. I was only able to get the second one, but I endeavor to find the first.
