'Dexter' spoiler alert: Find out how Rita's returning!

comic-con-no--ordinary-peopleJulie Benz dropped by EW’s Comic-Con suite last week to talk up her role in ABC’s new super-powered drama No Ordinary Family, but you better believe I snuck in a question about her top-secret return to Dexter this fall. And to say she gave some killer (read: extra spoilery) answers is quite the understatement. Benz—who was accompanied by Family leading man Michael Chiklis and boss Greg Berlanti—also opened up about the Rita-related scare that led to the removal of a sizeable Family prop.

    OMG, Ausiello, like, how could you ruin Dexter for me? Again? So rude. Who cares if the season ended 8 months ago, it’s not right for you to ruin it for people who haven’t seen the whole thing and who decide to visit sites that will no doubt talk about it without care. It’s totally not my fault. It’s yours. No journalistic integrity. Shame on you. //sarcasm

    • Shotgun

      Ughhhhhh I saw a story for Dexter and assumed it wouldn’t have any spoilers!!! KHANNNNNNNN!!!!

      • Kristina

        Omg. It like clearly states that it is a total spoiler alert. Like, omg. Omg. Omg!!!

      • Shotgun

        Omg too much

    • sara

      oh brother. The season was over 8 MONTHS ago. If you haven’t seen it, too bad. How long is everyone suppose to wait for you exactly?

      • Nerwen Aldarion

        Did you not see the sarcasm tags? J was kidding!!

      • J

        Read my comment over again. If you still think I’m being seriously, you should go back to school and learn how to improve your comprehension skills.

      Did you hear Obama became president?

      • Shotgun

        Awww spoiler alert!

      • Not Really

        Obama is President? I thought he was sill just campaigning and this was all Bush’s fault..
        Really the bad recession.. Bush and Dems in Congress who missed it coming.. Yes.. but PLEASE the worst recovery unless you are on Wall Street.. That is all the Great One’s fault.. never let an academic run the business no matter how charming.

      • :P

        Oh sh!7 “Countries” i gotta correct that before someone trys to insult me by pointing out an accident :P

    • sallygas

      ~~~ B_l_a_c_k_w_h_i_t_e_C_u_p_i_d * C_o_m ~~~ ,now i enjoy an i-nterracial lifestyle!!! u may try !!!! ;)

    • Mr. So And So

      Your attempt at being funny fell by the wayside, ppl were complaining because it was IN THE HEADLINE a few days later…instead of bitching about other people bitching for a reason how about you get a life. Sincerely your mom.

    • JB

      Seriously? GET OVER IT. Ausiello is a spoiler site. If you don’t like spoilers.. don’t visit his page. ESPECIALLY if you haven’t watched the show in EIGHT FRIGGIN’ MONTHS!

      • JB

        Whoops! Missed the sarcasm! :)

    • sandy

      shut up!

    • Dre

      I see what you did there. :rolleyes:

    • Peter

      Guys it was spoiled in the Season 5 trailer that was released. If you watch they show her in the coffin and you should just be like “oh thats how shes comin back”

  • paragon

    Gee, lying in a coffin. What an exciting, extra-spoilery tidbit. Can’t wait for the season premiere now.

  • Ed

    Mike Chikilis is so hot. I hope we get to see him topless in the show.

    • Katie

      What’s with all the sarcasm on this post?

      …That was sarcasm, right?

      • Dominic

        Oh Katie, you wit! Who do you think is hot – Justin Bieber? Some of us like a real man. Seconding Ed – Chiklis shirtless, every week please.

      • Ed

        Not an ounce of sarcasm. Chikilis may not be your cup of tea, but he’s certainly mine. Yummy.

    • Grumpy

      I just threw up a little in my mouth.

      • m.

        If you didn’t get it: even Chilkis himself made fun at his looks, because Julie Benz is hot and he looks average (he has beer belly!) :)

  • Andrew

    Corpse duty! I called it months ago.

  • Scott

    If you have seen the season 5 trailer then Rita being in a coffin is not a spoiler since they show that.

  • Melissa

    Rule of spoilers: Once a TV show has aired live on the west coast, it is fair game. If you haven’t seen it, it is up to YOU to avoid spoilers!

    • Kristyn

      Do you not understand sarcasm?

      • Manny

        English! Do you speak it!

  • Kate

    I’m glad people finally understand that it’s not a spoiler if the season has already aired :) It was starting to seem hopeless for a few months in the beginning. The only think that would irk me is if a popular entertainment show spoiled it without a warning. Besides that, nobody should be reading articles about Dexter and acting surprised that they are discussing events that already occured.

    • Vince from NYC

      I think a lot of people are to frugal to order Showtime so they wait until they can Netflix the DVDs.. Me, I cant wait, which is why I pay a small fortune to my cable company every month.

  • Stagger Lee

    Dexter stoppped listening to his dad and now he’s gonna stop listening to his dead wife. Rita, the kids and Dexter was the good part about the show. Might go watch
    a reality crime show instead.

    • J.

      Shut you filthy mouth!

      • Brad

        Julie Benz was the best part about the show. Deal with it butt munch!

  • Shayan

    Julie Benz. Yum. and Michael Chiklis! Bloddy Hell.

  • Ang

    I can’t wait for No Ordinary Family to begin!

    • Brad

      It looks sick!

  • Luke

    I dont care about Micael Chiklis being topless, but i sure as hell want to see Julie Benz topless! She is absolutely gorgeous and her laugh is so cute. Id love to pork her all night.

    • D. Vader

      I AM YOUR FATHER LUKE!

    • matt logan

      go watch and prior season of Dexter she had many topless scenes .She has had plenty of nude scenes on Dexter or a few movies

  • andres

    “the video you are trying to watch uis currently unavailable” can someone plz resume the spoilers? how will Rita get back to the show? plzzzzzz

    • matt logan

      She is in the coffin during her wake at the start of season 5

  • matt logan

    Hey it says in large letters Spoiler so why did you watch it. The season ended 9 months ago .If you don’t know about Rita then it is your’e problem or loss. If you are oversees plenty of placesto watch the show on line

    • Nick

      Spoil being the right word. Rita (Julie) gone the show done gone and spoiled itself.

  • Earl Boods
