Duane "Dog" Chapman — the most famous bounty hunter we know — will be back this summer on A&E with fresh episodes, says the AP. As you may recall, Chapman's show, Dog the Bounty Hunter, was abruptly pulled from the 'net last fall following the leak of a taped phone conversation in which Chapman referred to his son's girlfriend, who is African-American, with a racial epithet. An A&E spokesman said the network felt Dog deserved a second chance, and had done work to redeem himself since the incident. Reruns of the series will kick off June 25, and new episodes will begin airing soon after. Bail-jumpers across Hawaii might be quaking in their law-evading flip-flops, but what about you?

I did not ever want to be in the hot seat as I am right now." Wait, that's an apology? — Ben Katner

Duane "Dog" Chapman and two Dog the Bounty Hunter costars, including his 29-year-old son Leland, were arrested on Thursday in Hawaii on charges of illegal detention and conspiracy, stemming from their June 2003 capture of Max Factor heir Andrew Luster, who had fled the U.S. for Mexico on three rape charges. Chapman's publicist says her client will be vindicated, telling the Associated Press, "He arrests the bad guys. He is definitely not one of them." Said Chapman himself in the courtroom following his arrest, "You see what the American government is doing to us? They throw us in jail. I'm so upset about this." Chapman et al are being held in Honolulu, where they will face an extradition-to-Mexico hearing.
