Dexter, Channel 4, and more sex

ITV1 have purchased Showtime's Dexter for a terrestrial screening. The series which stars Michael C Hall as a killer handing out justice of his own, has already been shown on the FX network. FX are quick to point out they will show season two first, and they have not lost the show entirely. ITV1 need to plug a hole with their new purchases Bionic Woman and Cane heading for cancellation and both Pushing Daisies and Life held up by the writers strike......The strike means that Channel 4 will hold back shows like Desperate Housewives and Reaper until their full seasons are available.....Keifer Sutherland is in jail, his 48 day sentence means even the strike ends tomorrow, a new series of 24 is still some way off....No good news then, but this might cheer you up, the first trailer for the Sex and the City movie.
