Thumbs up Julie Benz moves to Wisteria Lane? (Spoiler Warnings for Multiple Shows)

"Julie Benz has bounced back from her shocking Dexter departure with a major role on Desperate Housewives."

Well, crap. I didn't know that about Dexter. It would be great if you could edit and remove that and put a spoiler warning for the article.

I was spoiled before I realized what I was reading.

I'm not extreme about Spoilers but this is a very big plot point and now I......can't unknow it. That's disappointing. *sigh*

Question

Spoiler? How long does something remain a spoiler? It's been news in all the usual sources since before Christmas. I even posted a skit she did about it on E-online. The episode was shown almost a month ago!

I don't haunt "the usual sources" and I didn't see the thread about the skit she did. I haven't heard any mention of it anywhere on except a Secret and even then, they posted a big red 'spoiler' alert at the top of the Secret so I knew to avoid the thread. A month may seem like a long time to some but not for others. I was hip deep in Christmas so I didn't have time to watch.

You didn't know that, though, and I understand that, which is why it's better to be safe than sorry. It's not a big deal, it won't ruin the season when I finally have time to watch it. But maybe next time doing a spoiler in the thread title might be good. Just a suggestion.

Around here it's just better to be safe than sorry. Especially when it comes to premium channel shows. Some people don't have Showtime and wait to download on iTunes or get the DVDs, so that can be quite a long time. When it comes to major events in a show, a spoiler warning is just easier to do than make people upset about it.

So, knowing that, I still would appreciate it if you could edit your original post taking out the headline and adding a Dexter spoiler warning.

Done. I'm not sure mentioning "Dexter" by name wouldn't be an editorial spoiler, so I tweaked it a little.
