Storyline
Plot Summary:
Meet Dexter Morgan. By day hes a blood spatter pattern expert for the Miami Metro police department. But by night - he takes on an entirely different persona serial killer. But Dexter isnt your average serial killer as he only kills people who fit a very prolific and precise moral code taught to him by his late father Harry (he didnt kill Harry, honest), and developed very thoroughly throughout each kill. While dealing with his daily activities and his boss, Sgt. Doakes, the one man who may or may not know the truth about his after-hours activities, he is given a friendly message by a guy referred to only as The Ice Truck Killer - a crime scene where there is no blood. This shocking discovery turns Dexters world completely upside down. The Ice Truck Killer wants Dexter to play his game and Dexter is very eager to take on this cat-and-mouse chase throughout Miami.

Better Ianus, many mirrors
I think that Dexter is not hilarious, but one of the real face of theIanus from our soul. Is a good serial and with a great success inRomania. Sorry from my English, i am french speaker native. When iwrite from Ianus i just think that is the motto of the movie. Every manhas secrets, but just a few said to keep it. Once more time, Dexter isa different dimension of the human nature and i don't understand theterm hilarious. I watch not a comedy, but a real movie. Dexter mustcontinue! I have read somewhere that all the cats are Grey in the dark.Dexter is just a reflexion in the mirror of that idea. And the realface is covered by a labyrinth.

Great show, but not amazing.
I think it's a great show, and I give it a well deserved 9/10. It'sjust so clever, you're never sure what's going to happen next, unlikeon most programmes you can be like, ah it's okay, we know he's nevergoing to get caught, but with Dexter you actually genuinely think hemight just get caught at any moment.The only problem I have with the show, is that I just don't think it'smy thing, I've not found the show as addictive as I'd of liked to, I amprone to addiction to TV shows and I have to watch them all in a row,but with Dexter I'm happy to watch just one a day which I am slightlydisappointed about, I like to have to force myself to stop watching.But saying that most other people find it massively addictive so I'mprobably just a small % of people who don't find it that addictive sochances are you'll love it.Okay I do actually have another problem with it, they killed off theonly good eye candy.

For the cure to boredom, make an appointment with Dexter Morgan...
I was hesitant about this show in the beginning, since I'd read thatDexter was someone who killed animals (and that is something I CANNOTforgive under ANY circumstances). However, the premise for the showintrigued me. So I checked it out. While it's true that Young Dexterdisplayed the typical signs of a future serial killer (ie. killinganimals), at least we didn't have to *see* any of it. What we saw AdultDexter killing were nogoodniks who deserved what they got. This is whyI was able to like his character: because he was putting his addictionfor killing to a more "noble" use than just because he enjoyed it. Iknow he doesn't kill simply to save people. He didn't set out to be anysort of "hero", but whether he wants to be or not, he's doing a servicemany people would be grateful to him for. It's funny, at the end ofSeason 1, I felt the ending (with Dexter daydreaming about everyonecheering him on and congratulating him, etc for what he'd done) was abit out of place on the show. However, after a while, I grew toappreciate that ending more, as it was something Dexter would no doubtdream about. It suddenly made sense to me and felt 'right' in thecontext of the show).As far as the other characters go, I grew to like Deb pretty quickly inSeason 1 and, by Season 2, she'd become one of my favourite charactersin the series (along with Dexter). I know people have their issues withher, but I just...don't. I agree with the majority of what shedoes/says (plus, she's often amusing). I love her and Dexter'sinteractions, and the two actors who portray them have great siblingchemistry. She's definitely the best female character on the show. Asfor Rita, she doesn't really annoy me too much (except when she seemsto take Dexter for granted and just uses him at her own convenience).Considering what she went through with her ex, I can sympathise withher (although it doesn't excuse EVERYTHING she does/says, it certainlyexplains why she reacts the way she does in certain situations). Angelis the most 'normal' character in the show, and although he wasn'treally that interesting to me in the beginning, he's become morelikable as the seasons have progressed. LaGuerta is...okay. I'm neitherhere nor there when it comes to her. Her storyline was the most boringaspect of Season 2, so I was glad when it got wrapped up midwaythrough. I actually didn't mind Lundy, and actually liked his storylinewith Deb (however weird it might have been).As for Doakes...well...what can I say? He was easily the mostunlikeable character on the show from the get-go and remained so untilthe end of Season 2. Strangely enough, it wasn't until he was beingheld captive by Dexter that Doakes became tolerable for me. What ashame it took so long for us to see that Doakes (and the actor playinghim) could act like a human being/not be so one-note. Of course, thenLila had to take him out...and I was grateful for that. Speaking ofLila, I felt she added some much-needed spice to the show in Season 2.Yes, I know she was hated by a not-small percentage of viewers, but Ithought she had an interesting role. Hers and Dexter'sscenes/conversations together were part of what made Season 2 so great.She brought out these sides to Dexter (and his inner feelings) that wewouldn't have seen otherwise. If nothing else, she served a usefulpurpose in Season 2. What I really appreciated was the way they wrappedup her character. That final meeting between her and Dex wasgreat/fitting.I must say, I think Season 2 was just about as good as Season 1 (maybeeven a little better). Sadly, I think Season 3 dipped in quality a bitfrom the first two seasons. The best aspect of Season 3 was Jimmy Smitsas Miguel Prado and the "friendship" he developed with Dexter.Michael C. Hall is someone who I haven't seen in anything else, but itgoes without saying that he owns the role of Dexter Morgan. While Iknow that the series is based on novels, I also am aware that the showhas veered off from the books quite a bit, and I've read comments thatthe show is actually "better" - which is something you rarely hear.Usually it's the original source material that's most beloved by fans,but reading that fans of the books not only love the show/think it hasdone the books justice, but also has *surpassed* them as well, is veryencouraging to hear.The opening credits get special mention for how highlyappropriate/relevant to the show they are. I love all the details.Dexter going about his daily morning routine, doing seemingly mundanethings, but them being presented/shot in extremely sinister/disturbingways is *so* perfect. Every single thing we see in the opening creditscan be related to what Dexter does (in regards to his killings). Allthe preparing of food, and even something as simple as him gettingdressed, takes on a whole new meaning when you watch them. Like Dexterhimself, there's two sides to what's going on in those opening credits:the normal, everyday routine, and then the darker, more disturbingside. To top it all off, the show's theme is one of the BEST themes fora show ever. It is so twisted, and yet so catchy. I love it. Iappreciate shows that can put actual thought into something likeopening credits (whereas so many other shows could care less aboutthem).This is a dark but quite brilliant series that is definitely worth yourtime.

Best new show of 2006
Just finished season one in a two day 4 hour marathon. Michael Hall isgreat as Dexter and the supporting cast seems very real with littlestereotyping.Show is in the same vein as other HBO/Showtime 1 hour dramas, sharpadult writing, appropriate violence and sex, and little pandering.Spoiler Alert: This season's arc worked on many levels, especially theway it showed us how Dexter became Dexter, the combination offlashbacks and the twist ending.Showtime has renewed the series for a second season (due late fall) andI wonder how they will carry the show since the first season wasfocused on one killer, The Ice Truck Killer, and his relationship withDexter. I can't see Dexter marring his girlfriend, but I suspect theirrelationship will be a key initial topic.

Review of Season 1
Finished watching season1 last night. And I've something to say (withspoilers)I love this show and totally hooked to it. Till the episode Deb fallsfor Rudy everything was OK. But making Rudy the killer is so so so soclichéd. It was so intelligent and engazing I was thinking about a 9rater..But I've problems with the following. 1>Dexter is surviving onlybecause he's cautious and observes everything. But only thing or personhe did not observe was Rudy and he's the killer!!! Can't accept. 2>Debfalling for Rudy. Already told, clichéd. 3>In a scene Dexter hacks intoMasuka's mail and edits a word document and just saves it. WTH!!! Howdo u change the original document that the sender has sent. It will bestill in the inbox. Dexter can't delete and the solution shown for itis so false. 4>The Cuban boy describes Jesus!!! WTF? Kuch bhi?!!! 5>Allof a sudden the investigation for Valerie Castillo's murderer isstopped. And obviously everyone stops searching for Valerie Castillo'shusband (who they considered as the suspect) 6>Rudy gifts the hooker'sring to Deb. WTF??? Most used cliché. 7>AND the mother of all cliché.Rudy is brother of Dexter. WTF??? Why can't he be just a worthycompetitor?Apart from ^those I loved the show and gonna continue. Its different.

Black humor drenched in a deeply dark storyline... Incredible.
The first season of Showtime's hit show Dexter, based on the novelDarkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay, was a huge success both withcritics and DVD sales. It is by and far one of the most consistentlyexcellent seasons of a show in recent memory (apart from Heroes). Sohow did season two of the show measure up? Surprisingly well, actually.The acting in Dexter is just phenomenal, with one of my favorites beingMichael C. Hall of Six Feet Under fame. Also starring in the show areJulie Benz, Jennifer Carpenter, Lauren Velez, James Remar, and ErikKing.Unlike the first season of Dexter, season two doesn't go by the secondbook, Dearly Devoted Dexter, and instead relies completely on thecreativity of the impressive writing team. While the story told inseason one was all about self-discovery and the mystery of the IceTruck Killer, season two begins with a shocking twist: all of Dexter'swork is discovered dumped in the ocean, and the Bay Harbor Butcher isborn. A huge case opens up even bigger than the Ice Truck Killer, andDexter's secret is more threatened than ever as he meets a destructiveyoung woman, Lila, and the annoying Sergeant Doakes remains constantlyon his tail.The acting, as always, remains a shocking surprise. Michael C. Hall issimply note-perfect as Dexter, and it just further goes to show howgreat of a character actor he truly is. He played a homosexual manworking at a funeral home in his spectacular five year run on Six FeetUnder, and in Dexter he plays almost the polar opposite; a serialkiller who thinks he's emotionless, but starts becoming more and morehuman as the episodes progress. Julie Benz, who is best known for herrole as Darla on both Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel, has mostlystarred in some small indie movies, but she is given a lot more screentime and a lot more to work with here. Whereas the character of Rita isvery bland and kind of boring on paper, Benz brings to her a sense ofcuriosity and discovery. It is practically required for her characterto remain interesting so that she doesn't get outshined by the gorgeousand accent-heavy Jaime Murray. Playing the new character of Lila,Murray outshines most of the cast with her incredible charisma andgreat presence. Jennifer Carpenter is simply delectable as Dexter'ssister, but Erik King as Sergeant Doakes is simply one big annoyance.While he is perfectly cast, there is just no way whatsoever that anyonecould find this character likable.Dexter's character gets very, very interesting this season as he goeson a journey of self-discovery and realizes that he might actually havea conscience after all. He goes through a rough patch with Rita and forthe first time, he feels incredibly human. This is why Dexter is one ofmy favorite shows. It has so much depth and realism to it that it'shard not to grow attached to its deep characters and twisty plot lines.Season one was absolutely incredible, and season two, while it had alot to live up to, was simply amazing. The finale was one of the bestfinales I've ever seen, and it leaves the viewer craving more. Theseason ends so perfectly, and even manages to close up some loose ends.Don't miss Dexter, one of TV's all-time greatest shows, when season twocomes to DVD in 2008!

Greatest Show Ever Made
I want to stress that I have seen a lot of great shows; 24, House, TheSimpsons etc. But I have never seen a show quite as brilliant asDexter. It succeeds in every level, it's funny, has superb lead actors,great character development, very dramatic and the most ingenious storylines I've ever seen. I remember watching the first episode on theinternet to see what it was like, and from the second he killed hisfirst victim on the show I knew I was hooked. I watched the other 11episodes of the first season religiously and I can say bar the firstseason of 24 I've never enjoyed a series of TV more. Dexter is goinginto it's sixth season and in my opinion the previous five have beensuperb, and the show has never lost it's dramatic pace or originality.so if you want a to watch something that will hook you with it's greatstory lines, amaze you by it's actors and amuse you with it's sharpwit, then without a doubt, this is the show for you.

The greatest
It's refreshing to see that there are still courageous people inshowbiz. To take a novel like that, to resist the temptation of doing a2h30 film in which would be impossible to achieve the psique intensitythat Dexter transpires. This series, with great, great action, allowsto see our inner sociopate, to understand the reasons for cruelty in adamaged world. It's definitely one of the best things I've ever seen,and I can wait until I get my hands on the novel.Beware: sometimes it get gory: blood, lots of blood. Its not my wave,but it isn't gratuistious, and it can be easily overcome with some shuteyes.Recommended to all who like good entertainment but is tiered of theempty explosions10 *'s

The best show on television
This show is hands down the best show ever. I have made it my ownpersonal mission to ensure that all my friends and even friends offamily members are exposed to this show. I started from the secondseason and me and my college roommates were hooked instantly. Whereasme an my roommates would fight here and there and didn't always getalong, this show brought us together. We watched every episode togetherand would actually set times for everyone to be back at the apartmentready to watch an episode. Every single person I have introduced tothis show has loved it and borrowed all the seasons from me on DVD tocatch up. The show is about Dexter a forensics blood splatter analyst who is alsoa serial killer with a moral code created by his father. Dexter lacksbasic human emotions and has trouble connecting to others but is ableto disguise it very well to those closest to him. After all he has thebest hiding spot, hidden in plain sight. Very few can see through hisact and with each passing season he gains a little more humanity andcharacter development.You'll wonder if it's okay to be rooting for a serial killer as hekills a rapist or another serial killer. The show is based off a bookseries but the book and show go in different directions from the samestarting point. If you've read the book, you don't have to worry aboutknowing what happens next. This show is a guilty pleasure that willhave you screaming for some more.You'll love Dexter. Your mother will love Dexter. Your father will loveDexter. Don't just watch Dexter, share it with everyone you know.

Amazing!!!
Dexter's one of the best TV shows these days. It's just too interestingthat I couldn't stop watching it until I got to the end of the lastseason! Even though every episode is almost an hour...The writers of this show never take a break! Every season of "Dexter"they presented us a new, fresh, interesting and good plot, anddeveloped the story step by step.Just a minute ago, I finished watching the last episode of the 4thseason, and it just left me in shock!!! I can't wait to watch the 5thseason now.I watch a lot of TV shows: Lost, Prison Break,Grey's Anatomy and more.And I have to tell you - now "Dexter" became one of my most favorite TVshows! If you haven't seen it 'till now, hurry up now and watch it,'cause you wouldn't wanna miss it...

At last something to look forward to each year!
I'm based in the UK and just love this show.When they stopped NYPD Blue (and also stopped showing re-runs of thisseries in the UK), I just got very angry, it was as though somethingreally good in life was taken away and not replaced by somethingequally as good. I must admit that there are probably some really goodUS drama series out there and I could get into them if I followed themfrom the beginning.I felt the same way when 24 stopped.Dexter fills the gap as far as I am concerned. It has humour, side soapopera type stories about the other characters in the series as well asthe great Dexter storyline.I wait until the series comes out in a box set and then just watch themall in one go over 2 days (I did the same with 24 but over 3 days),it's great entertainment and totally addictive.When I saw how they manage to finish each of the Dexter seasons with anamazing final episode, I just thought "you can't write this stuff"!Full marks to the story writers.I have a few criticisms which don't deter me at all from watchingfuture seasons (I just pray to God that they don't stop this series).These are:1. Dexter needs to go out in disguise each time he sets out to killsomeone (there always seem to be people out there with camcorders),also he could do with having a secret unregistered boat for when hedispenses with the bodies.2. Jennifer Carpenter is a bit of a ladette, with her swearing andmanner, I don't think it would be the end of the world if her characteris written off. Julie Benz was eye candy and we could do with someoneas nice to look at and feminine in her manner.3. It was a shame Sergeant Doakes was written off in Season 2 but itdid make sense, in that with his obsession with Dexter, there was boundto be a showdown eventually, if only they could have retained hischaracter for a while longer. Detective Quinn is interesting though andreplaces Doakes well.These are the only things I can think of at the moment.I love this show, God bless the writers and producers, please keep itgoing on forever.

Amazing But !
At first i see DEXTER is the most amazing series i watch ever , and thegreatest scenario written for the American cinema, I feel, when I sawthe series i feel at the same time as I read a book contains awonderful novel by a genius author. my only criticize the sex contentsand the bad sexy words and the continuously cursing, because when"Dexter" was amazing for watch i I start to see the series with my dadto create a new relationship with him, for his urgent desire to be withhim for a time, but after a few episodes I return to my room andfollow-up series as usual, only with my self, I am ashamed to see thenaked scenes with him and hear the obscene words i hate to hear ittogether in the same time,so i have a question why - in "Dexter" - thefocus should be on the sexual scenes more than any thing even thebloody an killing scenes which is the base of the story of "Dexter". issex is the main controller in us so we give it this care. really i haveno problem with sex but too much in this matter, it disgusted.

finally something ENTRETAINING throwout - no let downs here)))
its been 8 years since i gave up watching ANY TV program, especiallythose ever increasing "shallow"( at best) serials that seemingly arebeing produced only to "adjust" and "attract" (promote in effect bythemselves) the ever increasing "commercial" times. so it comes as nosurprise that on HBO is pretty much the only remaining entertaining"prime time" television (not only, but most well known by generalpublic).in this "organization" writers and directors are less exposedto the effects of marketing economic aspects, propagandistic plots ofsome sort or another, or social disruption of habits and ideas. and in"dexter" case this very last aspect mentioned above is very interesting,since in effect, it deals with unusual behavior at best and ITSbest...well, i must first admit that the very first episode(or most of it) didnot have much impact on my already high expectations.somehow i did notfeel that Michael C. Hall would be the man for the job or able to pullit off with "style". but the following episodes achieved well the"normalization" of the atmosphere, which is critical in order soviewers can establish perceptions, sympathies and even personalrelationships towards the protagonists. the secondary characters arenot extremely well developed at start but the way they integrate andinteract which each other is well done!.add on top of it the comicrelief which intrigues just enough to keep going the ever increasingmental demand and attention required from the viewer.to the the actors and characters now: Julie Benz as Rita Bennett is theonly one of those that seems as a constant cliché, or provides the veryFEW "slow" parts within the production(there is a whole and ONLYepisode i did not like because of her).yet she is very critical to theplot as giving us that "ordinary" vibe so we, as viewers can relate andargue about what is going on or not, or should be happening.she willdefinitely be appealing to any soap-opra lovers or laid back"conservative" viewers.Jennifer Carpenter as Debra Morgan is outstanding; there are partswhere she is "annoying" at least, but her dialogs are quietoriginal,sometimes witty and sometimes comic, especially for what sherepresents; and without ever going into the "unrealistic" realm of a"fictional" characters; while she is quiet pretty(and tall), she is notbeautiful( at least by the mainstream television "standards" thisdays,yucks, way too many pale blonds), which makes me appreciate hercasting in making the character look as realistic as possible.her voiceand tone provides quiet a few punch lines in themselves.)))Erik King as Sergeant James Doakes is fabulous;a very "conservtive",stand up guy. i would argue that he is the most important plotcharacter(in season two especially) towards feeding up the viewersinterests and mental reasonings on the universal moral and ethicalaspects of human beings, as generally being perceived as. his contrastto dexter Morgan is always so visible and yet very similar; hisideology is well defined and always "pressed" against the plot'scentral hero, creating an always evolving relation, for better orworse.Lauren Vélez as Lt. Maria Laguerta (together with David Zayas as AngelBatista)brings the show's plot integration within its Miami location,and does very well at that, at least as the general perception goes ofhow this specific city is, at least on the silver screen. they bothrepresent( and seemingly are) Cuban immigrants; the Spanish languageand "stereotypes" are brought by them "live" everywhere in-between plotlines; with much "gusto" i might add, both from my own serious and/orfunny perspectives. they also create the excellent "normality" vibe.James Remar as Harry Morgan( Dexter's adoptive father) is ever presentin almost all episodes providing the ideological plot traits and howthat affects the main hero.reflections of the past that ever huntseveryone sometimes without even be aware of this fact. to me he is abit of a "standard" character, somehow required but not quiet as oftenas he is.C.S. Lee as Vince Masuka is yet another co-worker of Dexter.hedoes have some comic parts or dialogs, but not central to plot much.quiet good acting but i feel he should have been developed a bit more;maybe in season three...Jaime Murray as Lila is intriguing(season 2only). even her the character seems to be "manipulated"(the only one assuch i think) she provides some different types of "tennsion" and somewicked feminist traits to be reckoned with...the characters at start are very much "cliches", but as the "time" goesby, each and every one of them develops special interests, and not ONLYbecause some plot twists; the plot was crafted especially well, and tome at least, there are no "plot" holes brought in, or left out, or outof script convenience, at least on the entertaining face value. unlike"prison break"'s season 2 and 3 "dexter" does not emerge itself inpredictability at any point and neither has "forced" suspense broughtus.up to the very last episode in season 2 i kept "learning" somethingnew that makes sense and increases tensions or suspense. also theserial has a great replay value, very unusual for a TV show; i aminclined to reason it based on excellent performances throw out andwitty comic aspects one could miss the first time around( i am prettysure i did or at least i think so).

Simply Amazing
The first thing that caught my eye about this show was that everyepisode has a lot going on. There is never a filler episode like CSI:or 24 does. Not only that, but to have no commercials for a whole hoursreally helps to make the show more enjoy able.Amazing how well it follows the book too. But I would have to say theshow ends a little better, but the books make you laugh as mush as theshow so everyone show check them out too.In short, great show that always has you guessing, a must check out!!If you love CSI:, 24, or anything else of that nature and want to seethem be blown out of the water? Than check out Dexter you wont bedisappointed.

American Psycho for Dummies
I only made it through the first three episodes of the first season, sounless the show has gotten a whole lot better since then, which Idoubt, I stand by my 1-star rating.This show is kind of like what would happen if they decided to makeAmerican Psycho into a TV series, and hired the writers and of a cheesysitcom, a director whose last project was a high school play, andactors who previously only worked in porn.Okay, yes, Michael C. Hall is great in the show, but you know what he'dbe even better in? A show with good writing and a decent supportingcast. I think the worst thing about the show has to be the voice-overs.They're just insulting. It's like they're saying, "Don't worryaudience. We know it hurts to think, so we've done all the thinking foryou. You see, Dexter is very much aware that he's a very hollow,emotionless killer, but just in case you forget, we'll have him remindyou about every 3 minutes or so." The thing that sucks is, I reallywanted to like this show. Great premise, great lead actor, but in theend, just a really crappy show.

Interesting though with flaws...
I've watched the first two seasons and found my way to Dexter mainly bywanting to know what Michael C. Hall was doing after Six Feet Under. Iam a little disappointed although his role fits and it's always apleasure to see him act as Dexter. What disappoints me though is the storyline. It has it's ups and downsand I image some viewers might find it really interesting but if youhave seen thrillers and movies like American Psycho you will find thisshow rather boring. Dexter is the "good guy" who has to go through"adventures" and this is not really what you would expect from a guywho can't stop loving to kill people. I know those two extremes mightsound interesting but after seeing the first episode you basically knoweverything about the character. Of course there are some flashbacks,some minor development but in the end Dexter stays the same. I won't even get into the other characters who are just dragging thewhole show down, especially Dexter's sisters (Jennifer Carpenter). Shedid a decent job in the remake "Quarantine" but only because she was atypical horror movie victim. You enjoy to see her scream and die butshe won't in this show (and I have to say this: I was really happy whenseason 1 was over mainly because I would never have to hear her say theword "ice-truck killer" again) Julia Benz is the only character I found interesting ever since Dextersaid about her "in her way she is as damaged as I am". This is goodstuff. Comparing his life to a mother of two children and seeing thosetwo "damaged" people kinda fall in love. They could have made a wholeseries just about that storyline, instead they focus on the "bossyCuban bitch", the "suspicous black colleague", the weird sister "I lovea 30year older man" etc. all those story lines fail to be: a)believable b)innovative c)relating to the main character (after allthe show is called Dexter)I don't want to tell people not to watch this show, after all it issometimes entertaining and if you like to see something that goes wellwith your popcorn, go watch an episode or two. But it is nothing morethan a show a housewife would watch while ironing her clothes. If youdon't pay attention to most of the show, you'd still won't miss a lot.If you dislike that watch the Sopranos (if you haven't already) whereyou actually do have to pay attention if you don't want to miss out onall the entertainment.

I love this show!
Dexter is great. The acting is superb (with some exception of thesister's character), the plot is great, and if you love bloody gorewith an intellectual spin, you'll love this show. Michael C. Hall isjust awesome in this roll, and if you like "Six Feet Under" then youwill probably already love his character in "Dexter." I have read thebooks, and I have to say that the show is far superior to the books. Ido think that, after reading the books, it may be worthwhile to wait toread the book until after you see the show. I know, it's opposite ofwhat you might normally think, but I think the show is so much betterthat the book actually ruins the ideas at times. I can't wait for thenext season!

Great entertainment, keeps you guessing right to the last episode
Dexter falls into the category of a great show, with a great plot, witha great cast. It is one of these dramas that crops up every couple ofyears, such as The Sopranos, Prison Break and stretching it to Lost.Dexter is a blood specialist, but he is so much more than that. Dexterhides his real persona, his dark side and only one person has everknown his true identity, his father harry.Dexter looks badly upon those who have committed murder but gotten awaywith their crimes, in his mind they must be punished, in the only wayDexter knows: revenge.Hard to say anymore without giving away any spoilers so i will give you2 words of advice to help you.WATCH THIS

Best show out there!
I started watching this show and was immediately intrigued by Dexter.He is different and damaged. He truly believes he is not human, and nohe not some mythical creature. He is broken, he can not feel emotionsbecause of a traumatizing childhood. I couldn't stop watching because Iwas so fascinated by his inner thoughts, his hilarious banter withhimself on how to "behave" like a human. Michael C. Hall is a genius.He plays this character very well. Jennifer Carpenter is anotherfantastic actress, she really shines in the fourth season but her realdown-to-earth, potty mouthed portrayal of Deb is hilarious and real.The first season we learn about Dexter, how he thinks and what he does.He is a blood splatter expert, but he has an unusual hobby. He killsserial killers. He vows not to kill any innocent human being and it isthis and his charm that makes him lovable. The second season proves tobe better, more intense and more of Dexter trying to lead a normal lifewhile avoiding suspicion. The third season was good, but the best season thus far is the Fourthseason. John Lithgow guest stars alongside Dexter and Dexter becomesfascinated with this man because he is just like him, living a doublelife, and yet he has the ability to lead a normal life. The entireseason is filled with intensity and depth and the storyline gets morecomplicated when Dexter becomes a father and a husband for the firsttime. The writing and directing of Dexter are above any other show out there,it is smart, fun and they somehow get you to love and feel for thisperson who is morally corrupt. I never thought I would actually feelsorry for a serial killer. But is he a serial killer, or just someonetrying to clean the streets of bad people? You decide!

Fantastic
This is fantastic. Watch the pilot and you will never give it up. How Ifound myself so much in this series is another question. No I am not aserial killer. But the point is actually deep inside we are. Thedetails in Dexter's life, the rituals that he enters in are all shownin great excellence. Another amazing point is the conversations ofdexter both with his girlfriend and the around. The inner voice is usedtremendously. One of those is in the pilot he is saying when he is withhis girlfriend. "I am totally not interested in sex". This makes youbelieve in it. Yes I say to myself. How can it be otherwise. Anotherconversation is when the girlfriend asks his job. "Yes my job is blood"and than the inner voice saying "My life is blood". The Fruedian thingon one side, the emphasis on the "Pretending not to be" is great.Dexter's pretending philosophy is marvelous based on the Harry'S code.This is worth watching. One of the best I have ever watch.
