Charlie David Looking Hot
While there hasn’t been any progress on the production of a fourth season of Dante’s Cove since it was announced last year by here! Networks, Charlie David sure does still look super sexy and cute with the scruffy and hairy look.

Scrying Dante’s Cove Season 4
If you’re familiar with witchcraft you’ll know what scrying is. For muggles, scrying is a form of divination in which one gazes intently upon something such as a pool of a water, cloud formations or the leaping flames and burning embers of fire to discern shapes and images that give way to visions and answers to questions.
It seems that here! has given us a scrying task for season four! Newly published art on the official Dante’s Cove Web site may at first seem straight forward. But how many faces do you see? Three? Four? Eight? Who do you see? Are you sure you see who think you do? I’ve looked at it several times and while some are very clear, others are not so clear. Looks like we will have to use our powers of sight to see clearly who is really going to be in the new season!

Charlie’s Brief About Dante’s Cove Season 4
In December, Charlie David hosted a phone chat session with fans. He touched briefly on the subject of Dante’s Cove season four, indicating that little information was available. He said that the network had intended to present firm plans for the new season come January.
As was previously reported, Charlie said that he was told the scripts for season four are written, but hasn’t seen them. Due to a number of things including the potential actors strike situation last year, insurance, weather and location issues, season four was not able to be shot during summer 2008 as was previously planned.

The Lair, the vampire driven spin-off of Dante’s Cove, is currently airing its second season on here!. Coming on the heels of the huge success of HBO’s new vampire drama, True Blood, and its renewal for a second season, here! must be pleased enough with The Lair’s performance to have given the go ahead for a third season with a full order of 13 episodes.

Unfortunately for die hard Dante’s Cove fans, here! remains tight lipped about details for season four which was shot this summer and tentatively set to air in early 2009. The rumor is that it too will be expanded to eight episodes. Maybe season five of Dante’s will be bumped to 13 as well? Let here! know you want more Dante’s Cove!
THE LAIR BITES INTO A THIRD SEASON
Popular supernatural soap opera gets the green light
LOS ANGELES, CA – September 23rd, 2008 – here!, America’s premium gay television network is pleased to announce a third season of the hit original series The Lair. Written and directed by Fred Olen Ray, the third season of The Lair will consist of 13 half-hour episodes and begin production in November with an expected air date of spring, 2009.
Following on the heels of Dante’s Cove, The Donald Strachey Mysteries and Lesbian Sex and Sexuality, the network has created another successful franchise with The Lair. “We are thrilled with our audience’s enthusiasm for this series and our ability to expand the season to 13 episodes,” said Meredith Kadlec, Senior Vice President, Original Programming.
Among those reprising their roles on the sexy vampire series will be gay icon Colton Ford, David Moretti, Peter Stickles, Dylan Vox, Brian Nolan and Frankie Valenti (aka Johnny Hazzard).
Season two of The Lair debuted on September 5th and will be premiering new episodes through December. This season, things in this small town take a big turn when warring vampire factions fight to seize control of the coven. We are introduced to Dr. Jake Waldman (newcomer Matthew King), a botanist with a mysterious plant that seems to have a mind of its own and Ian (Matty Ferraro), a wandering lost soul with a dark secret and a beast that lurks within: a werewolf! Meanwhile, Thom (Moretti) has found himself waist-deep in a centuries-old romantic entanglement with Damian (Stickles) and Colin (Vox) has succeeded in his plan to take control of The Lair.
Season three of The Lair promises to bring back the majority of these hunky actors and engage us in fang-filled plot twists and supernatural sexuality.
