Pauley Perrette Takes On The Laramie Project: 10 Years Later

NCIS' Pauley Perrette and more of TV's biggest stars are banding together for a one-time performance of The Laramie Project: 10 Years Later to benefit the Matthew Shepard Foundation and stand up for gay rights.

The play is a sequel to The Laramie Project, which was based on the reactions of people in Laramie, Wyo., after Shepard, a 21-year-old gay college student, was murdered there in 1998. The new production revisits the townspeople a decade later and also portrays an interview with one of Shepard's killers.

The new play began performances across the country on Oct. 12. Perrette said she was approached by a member of her church, Hollywood United Methodist Church, about putting together a reading of the play there. Pretty soon... read more

Season Finale Preview: Are Dexter and Rita Headed for Trouble?

As Rita Bennett, the fiancée of Dexter's eponymous leading man, Julie Benz radiates vulnerability, tenderness and belief that she'll soon have a normal, married life with her main squeeze, who's secretly a serial killer (Michael C. Hall). But on the cusp of their wedding day, danger looms over the couple — including a vendetta from the family of Dexter's recently deceased enemy, as well as Dexter's own nagging concerns about what giving up his independence will mean.

In addition to her role on Dexter, Benz plays Angela Donatelli in Punisher: War Zone, the third big-screen adaptation of the Marvel comic series. As the movie hits theaters for the second weekend and Dexter's third season finale arrives Sunday (9 pm/ET, Showtime), the Buffy alumna chatted with TVGuide.com about the dynamic between Rita and Dexter and whether the pair is headed for a "train wreck."
