UPDATE: This is just a quick update to let you know about the following, which was sent to us today:

Just wanted to pass this along: TV Squad is looking for fans to submit questions for an upcoming episode of 'Outside the Box' with the men of 'Dexter' --- Michael C. Hall (the killer, Dexter Morgan, himself); Desmond Harrington (Joey Quinn); C.S. Lee (Vince Masuka); and James Remar (Harry Morgan).  If you've never seen an Outside the Box before, they are when stars from a tv show interview one another with questions from fans -- really great interviews.  Questions for this need to be in by ASAP since this interview tapes on Thursday!  Here's all the info:

...and back to the news:

FINALLY - showtime have released an official Dexter season 5 promo And season 5 trailer video! In our resent poll, most of you thought this series was going to be a cracker. Let's hope that these clips don't disappoint! I actually haven't seen either of them myself yet, it's just not the same to watch these things if they aren't embedded into Dexter-TV!

Enough of my jibber jabber, here's the dexter season 5 promo:

.. and here's the slightly longer season 5 Trailer!

I actually have even more exciting news to share with you, which will be posted in the next few days so stay tuned!

DON'T READ THE TEXT BELOW UNTIL YOU'VE SEEN BOTH VIDEOS!

I wasn't going to update this once I'd seen the videos, and I still felt much the same after the promo, but the trailer - fudge me! While I always hoped that season 5 would live up to expectations, I was slightly worried that it wouldn't. They've already introduced a fair few "bad guys" (ice truck, trinity) and a couple of "good guys" (doakes, lundy), and if they had gone for a setup too similar to that, I think we may have been in for disappointment. Luckily, it doesn't look as if though they have - with the exception of Quinn, but I guess his character is needed - and I reckon we're in for one hell of a season. I mean Dexter saying he did it, he killed rita, what's that all about? I could understand if he'd said that it was his fault, but admitting to actually commiting the murder? Definitely a good season on the horizon, I'm excited!
