journalists descending on his town, the one who worries Adam the most is<br />

Rachel, an outspoken environmentalist (and his ex-girlfriend). Rachel and Adam<br />

must rally an unlikely coalition of Inuit natives, oil companies and Russian and<br />

New this month is a package of HBO programming that begins<br />

with an episode from the 12-part mockumentary “Angry Boys.”<br />

The latest from Australian comedian Chris Lilley (“Summer<br />

Heights High”), “Angry Boys” puts the male species under<br />

the microscope as it explores what it means to be a guy in the<br />

21st century. The laughs continue with a classic episode of<br />

“Sex and the City” (pictured), featuring Manhattan’s best-known<br />

gal pals. Wrapping things up is the gritty Prohibition-era drama<br />

“Boardwalk Empire,” which tracks the rise of Nucky Thompson<br />

(Steve Buscemi), the would-be boss of Atlantic City.<br />

Everyone’s favorite serial killer is back in a new Showtime package<br />

that highlights two back-to-back episodes of “Dexter” (pictured).<br />

In the year since his wife’s shocking death, Dexter Morgan (Michael<br />

C. Hall) has finally come to terms with who he is: sometimes a<br />

mild-mannered blood-spatter analyst for the Miami Police<br />

Department, sometimes a murderous avenging angel. But Dexter’s<br />

newfound equilibrium is disturbed when he crosses paths with an<br />

enemy unlike any he’s faced before: a delusional religious zealot<br />

(guest star Colin Hanks). This new adversary soon draws Dexter<br />

into a dangerous game that could well end in disaster.<br />
