My Man Dexter (NVGR, but neccessary)
Ocified-Xboxer | 3:55 PM on 01.16.2008 16 comments


I feel it is my duty to spread the word, so forgive me for not linking this with anything remotely connected to a video game. I feel the need to spread the word about one of the most creative, devilishly written and supremely well acted shows in the past 10 years (at least). The show? Dexter. He isn't your everyday super hero, but what he lacks in super powers he makes up for in super psychotic.

The second season is finishing up its run on Showtime, and I happened to see an ad for it on CBS. I gobbled up the first season when I found it last year, and I flipped when I found out they were going to continue with the series.

It isn't the everyday bullshit crime drama...it's about a serial killer, and his mind, how he sees the world, and how the world sees him. Michael C Hall (David Fisher from HBOs Six Feet Under ) plays the main character, Dexter. The guy is a fantastic actor, and he really brings humanity and madness to the part.

I thought it would be a bit on the sucktastic side when I watched the first episode. I mean, how many good shows about twisted psychotics could there be? At least 1.

I don't know anyone else that has even heard of the show, let alone watches it. So consider this a fans plea for support, and spreading the word about how truely great the series is. The first season was great, and I'm about to begin season 2.

So if there is anyone who digs the sadistic, the gut wrenching world of a masochist....or just a fucking fantastic tale expertly woven into a world so well crafted it is creepy...I implore you to watch it, and support it.

You can thank me later, but for now, go and enjoy....either get Showtime or a torrent program.

the first season is mind blowing, I am ambivalent about the second season. it seems like it lacks focus. I am only about 5 eps in though.

First season is brilliant. Second season starts off a little slow, but gets much, much better.

Do you know it's based off of a novel? Darkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay. There's also two sequels, Dearly Devoted Dexter & Dexter In The Dark.

Question: I just realized that this is the Dexter on showtime coming over to cbs. Are they continuing from where they left off there(i.e. will I need to watch the first two seasons), or starting new?

It was confirmed that the first season will be aired on CBS starting on Sunday, February 17, 2008. Would be neat if they aired in tandum on cbs and showtime though for the 3rd season. They got 24 weeks of solid awesome television even if it is edited, god thats a lot of harsh language edits.

Dexter is amazing. The CBS re-airing is going to be lame because it's going to be heavily censored.

Also, Dexter is one of the rare shows (and this goes for movies as well) where I think the show is FAR better than the books. The books aren't bad, but the show is just leaps and bounds above them.

I've been meaning to watch this, but I don't have Showtime cause I don't pay for it. But, my basement cable box gets all premium channels for some odd reason. No HD though, so i'll probably never get around to watching it.

When I saw the thing for CBS I was slightly dissapointed...There is just no way they can edit the show for broadcast TV and have it be as deep as it was meant. The show is all kinds of brilliant...in a sick and oddly satisfying way. ;-)

I'm glad to see there are more people out there who really dig the show...

As for the books, I just noticed that in the opening credits for S02 Ep01...I may have to stop at a Barnes and Noble.

My parents got me hooked on this series and we watched all of season two together. I highly recommend this series to anybody.
