Last week, while Dexter (Michael C. Hall) was driving, Debra (Jennifer Carpenter) grabbed the wheel and ran them both into the bay, where they almost drowned, but didn’t. Now they’re both back on the job, but that watery detour may have made their sibling relationship even more complicated. This is the first episode of the season I haven’t previewed in advance, so I don’t know what happens next. But I’m hoping for more Dr. Vogel, less Debra. I’m just saying.

This episode hands Jeff Daniels a clever extended scene to play as Will McAvoy, as he tries to intervene personally to stave off the latest crisis. But there’s yet another crisis brewing, one that won’t be so easy to handle.

Liev Schreiber continues to juggle his work life (as a fixer for Hollywood bigwigs, most of them jerks) and home life (especially his ex-con father, played by Jon Voight, an absolute jerk), in ways suggesting he’s much better at the former than the latter. At least for now.

As BBC America works its way through the history of the various Doctors – while working its way towards the show’s upcoming 50th anniversary in November – it’s now up to The Seventh Doctor, the title of tonight’s special. It’s a profile of the incarnation of the Doctor played by Sylvester McCoy, who embodied the doctor for a brief run from 1987 to 1989. The tribute also includes a taste of Doctor Who episodes of the McCoy vintage.

This 2006 movie is most remembered for its star turn by Meryl Streep, who was nominated for an Oscar (but did not win) for her role as an imperious fashion editor, and for Anne Hathaway’s star-making turn as her new assistant. But the supporting cast is worth a second look. In addition to Stanley Tucci, who’s always great, there are key roles by actors who would attain greater fame after this film was released: Emily Blunt, Simon Baker and Adrian Grenier.
