Dexter
 
Has anyone seen this yet? I'm hooked. Some of the actors are a little weak, but the main ones are pretty solid. It's entertaining, and has some good dark humor. Besides, I'm a sucker for anti-heroes.

I head an ad for this on the FilmSpotting PodCast and it sounded quite interesting. What exactly is it all about?

sspadowsky Nov 6th, 2006 06:57 PM

Dexter is a forensics specialist who moonlights as a serial killer. His sister is a cop on the same force, he has a girlfriend who has two young kids, and he's being toyed with by another serial killer. Lots of interesting predicaments arise. Me likee.

I think the series is really good. I sorta gave up on the new season of CSI and I definitely like Dexter better.

snowwhite Nov 7th, 2006 04:23 PM

it's a really good book, too. I'm curious to see if they'll end the season the same way, since (other than creative stretching to make more episodes) it seems to follow pretty closely.

Watch episodes here: http://tvlinks.voodeedoo.org/Dexter_links.html

Seems like a cool show.

Mockery Dec 5th, 2006 03:43 PM

Been watching this show for a while actually. I honestly think it's the best show on TV right now. Also, good news for fans of the show, it's done so well that it's just been renewed for another season.

Zomboid Dec 5th, 2006 03:58 PM

I've only seen the first episode but it was good. I guess I'll have to watch more.

Mockery Dec 11th, 2006 07:07 PM

Graaaah! The season finale is next week and it's killin me. Must. Know. What. Happens! What really sucks is that, after next week, I'll have to wait 'til late 2007 before they air any more new episodes.

I've been watching this with Royal and a few other friends for the last few weeks. It's pretty sweet.

sspadowsky Dec 12th, 2006 09:11 AM

Fucking fantastic. I haven't been this into a show since Sledge Hammer, when I was, like, 11. I'm gonna be in the same boat- it's gonna be a bummer to see this season end. This is far and away the best show on TV.

On the bright side, Rog, there are two Dexter books out at the moment, and another one coming out in Summer 2007, so there's something to tide us all over until Season 2.

Mockery Dec 12th, 2006 11:03 AM

Yeah but I'm not gonna read the other books because I don't want to spoil the next seasons of the show as they could be based on the books just like this season was.

And I didn't know you liked Sledge Hammer. Awesome man. Any show involving a man who showers with his gun is badass in my book.

Trust me, I know what I'm doing

FartinMowler Dec 14th, 2006 11:02 AM

thanks to Metal for posting that link. I'm hooked after the first episode.

Mockery Dec 18th, 2006 01:59 AM

Damn, why must the season be over???? A solid ending for the season, but damnit, I want more now. I don't wanna wait 'til late 2007 for a new season. >:

MetalMilitia Dec 18th, 2006 10:46 AM

I really wanted to buy this on DVD for my girlfriend for christmas but apparently it's not out yet >:

doopa Dec 20th, 2006 12:35 AM

I fucking LOVE this show.

Black Flag Dec 20th, 2006 09:49 AM

the best episode is when his annoying sister breaks in and presses that button to ruin everything!

(p.s. guys i'm talking about the cartoon Dexter's Laboratory. I don't know if this Dexter even has a sister or a lab!)

executioneer Dec 20th, 2006 11:21 AM

man i already made that joke in the book forum :x

Black Flag Dec 20th, 2006 11:25 AM

i'm sorry man :(

Black Flag Dec 20th, 2006 11:33 AM

i feel like such a disappointment

FartinMowler Dec 22nd, 2006 04:09 PM

The link to the Dexter shows is gone :( If anyone knows where I can find them again...please tell me.

J. Tithonus Pednaud Dec 29th, 2006 04:32 AM

Great show. If paint-by-numbers predictable. Just got turned onto it. Now, I just hope Showtime (or HBO - whatever it is) doesn't drop the ball on this. Every show I get into is canceled before its time.

Carnivale, Dead Like Me, Love Monkey...

Sledge Hammer was awesome. Another batshit crazy show of the 80's. Great era for weird television.

MetalMilitia Sep 30th, 2008 09:02 AM

The new series just started and it's fantastic. :love

King Hadas Oct 27th, 2008 07:30 PM

This new season feels pretty weak to me. Dexter seems less like a sociopathic killer and more like a socially awkward killer. When he goes off on one of his little tangents about how he can't feel like normal people I simply don't believe him anymore. Also they're way to many melodramatic subplots. Last night there was one involving Masuka that was so lame it probably would have felt more at home on an episode of Scrubs.

Spoilers!

Ant10708 Oct 28th, 2008 11:36 AM

Not getting itno season 3 to much. I feel its alot slower and less in on the line for Dexter. I loved season 2 but I feel that would of been a good plot for their last season and a nice conclusion not season 2.
