We may have bid adieu to Shane and Alice back in March, but now we can get ready to follow a whole new group of ladies — this time in an unscripted series. Showtime is planning a reality show version of The L-Word titled The Real L Word: Los Angeles.
Whether or not they go through with the show is dependent on casting, but if they do go forward with it, the project "will follow six lesbians in Los Angeles as they go about their lives — a lesbian answer to Bravo's Real Housewives franchise."

The popularity of Showtime's original series is no secret — just ask BuzzSugar. But the opportunity for pulling design inspiration from the network's hot shows is something only Metropolitan Home has jumped on. Do you remember this morbidly chic Coveted Crib inspired by Dexter in last year's showhouse?Well, the modern decorating mag is at it again, teaming up with Showtime and a stable of over a dozen notable designers to give new meaning to the word "showhouse" with Metropolitan Home's Showtime House.

Never one to just rest on his laurels, director Oliver Stone is planning a 10-part documentary TV series for Showtime in which he'll explore events in US history that he feels were under-reported. Stone says of the show, titled Secret History, "Through this epic 10-hour series, which I feel is the deepest contribution I could ever make in film to my children and the next generation, I can only hope a change in our thinking will result."
The series will go more deeply into "human events" from America's past that helped to shape our country's history.

At Comic-Con's Dexter panel, we not only got a glimpse of season four with a fairly extensive preview (the video of which I've included after the jump), but we got to hear from the show's producers and actors — including new addition John Lithgow. Lithgow's character is chilling indeed, even from the brief snippets we see of him in the preview. And Lithgow is pleased as punch to be playing such a scary villain.

Looks like Showtime is tossing in some religion among the pot-dealin' moms, serial killers, not-so-stable nurses, and, um, King Henry VIII. Dirty Sexy Money creator Craig Wright, a former minister, is teaming up with producer David Janollari to bring the religion-themed show Revelation to the network. Here's more:
Hourlong project revolves around an unconventional minister who moves to a Texas church with his two teens after his wife suddenly dies.

Bad news for folks who were hoping to see The L Word's Alice in prison or Matthew Perry getting foul-mouthed: Showtime has passed on both the L Word spin-off and Perry's comedy The End of Steve.
Steve featured Perry as a bitter afternoon TV talk show host, with a script co-written by Perry and Peter Tolan. Showtime once thought the duo would be "a twisted match made in heaven," but apparently the final product didn't seem right for the network.
