Good news, code-subscribing serial killer fans!  Michael C. Hall is back at work, although not Dexter just yet.  Hall is currently shooting the dramedy East Fifth Bliss and sporting a $10,000 wig, while waiting for his hair to grow back after beating Hodgkins Lymphoma.  Hall will return to the set of Dexter in June and the spoilers are starting to spill in regarding what we can expect in terms of a follow-up to last season’s amazingly dark finish.  For those of you not afraid to examine the season six’s bloodwork, read on!

• What will become of the newly orphaned Cody and Astor?  Executive producer Sara Colleton said their Rita post-mortem plight will be examined closely next season.  “Cody and Astor are somewhat insulated from Dexter’s world, but it is something that is going to haunt Dexter…that’s a very provocative issue that we are going to explore,” said Colleton at last month’s Paley Fest. (Spoiler TV

• Tired of the LaGuerta/Batista not-so-PDA?  Don’t worry, Lauren Valez thinks it’s over.  “[LaGuerta] is in love and she married him, but she’s never done this…Personally, I think she’s going to head for the hills. She’s worked so hard to obtain this position, but now it’s the battle: Do I hand this in for this guy, or do I hold on to everything I fought for?” says Valez. (TV Guide)

• She’s gotten close before, so will Deb finally find out what’s up with Dexter’s nocturnal activities?  Executive producer Sara Colleton says not just yet.  “For right now, it’s run its course, we have to create a little bit of a safe haven before we pull the rug out on the poor boy.” (TV Guide)

• Who will Dexter face?  Dexter himself.  Not that you could follow Lithgow’s Trinity, but the show’s creative team isn’t even going to try – and that’s a good thing.  Where Dexter has slowly mastered domestic life, now he will find himself as sole care-giver to three children.  Let’s see how the dark passenger handles all of that. (EW)

• Dexter‘s story will pick up where season four left off and follow the dramatic leads left by Rita’s death.  So we will see Dexter planning and attending Rita’s funeral.  Will we see Julie Benz as a corpse? Heck, Harry appears in every episode – don’t rule out a visit from Rita. (EW)

Dexter will not be courting a replacement Rita.  That makes sense given the timeline but it is reassuring to know that the producers aren’t in a big hurry to have Dexter rebuild his life.  Instead, expect Dexter to spend a lot of time emoting over the fragments left behind. (EW)
