Title: Anyone seen DEXTER? (was "Anyone seen Baxter?")
Post by: BTM on September 27, 2007, 04:24:18 PM
It's this tv series on Showtime, apparently about a serial killer.  According to one commercial I saw, he claims he only kills "bad" people (the commercial has the character talking to the camera.)

I don't really know much about it, as I don't get Showtime, but I've heard some people say it's pretty good.  Was thinking putting it in my Netflix queue. 

Oh, cancel that, it's not available for Netflix yet.. or even listed. 

But still, curious if anyone's watched it.

  "Dexter". Great show. It's about a guy that is a sociopathic killer that kills killers. At some points in the show, it seems that he is killing for redemption, at others he seems to kill because he enjoys it. That is a huge part of my fascination with the show; the inner conflict that consumes him. Is he really trying to stifle his murderous urges, or is he trying to be deceptive? Watch it from episode 1 and draw your own conclusions, it's a really cool show (especially when he is trying to be "human").

Dexter = Amazing.  I love the character of Dexter.  He claims he has no feelings, doesn't understand how other humans live the lives that they do and he tries to put up a facade to fit in with everyone.  He works in the CSI at the Miami police department and uses the knowledge gained from his job and from his late father to keep from getting caught himself.

The first season is superb with Dexter being followed and taunted by a serial killer known only as The Ice Truck Killer.  The show is excellent all around and his sister on the show, played by Jennifer Carpenter is extremely cute.

I agree totaly, Dexter is an awesome show. I catch it on the movie network up here in Canada, and I have to say, this is the best series currently on right now (excluding MXC). Highly recomended!
