Customer Reviews: Read 358 more reviews... awesome show! November 20, 2008James C. Ward (Tuscaloosa area AL, USA) a relative recommended this show to me, and I'm glad she did (because since I don't subscribe to Showtime)...I wasn't aware that this series existed, until recently. Thankfully, Netflix took care of that little problem for me. Dexter plays a vigilante of sorts, a hero with a very dark side...he gives justice to those that the criminal justice system can't find or put behind bars. Michael Hall is a great actor, balancing a killer on the one hand and a likeable, lovable professional forensics expert on the other.....as he interacts in his various relationships. The show has comedy, drama, tension....it had just about everything...I guess one would label this a "dark comedy" type of series. Very dark. All the other characters in the show are interesting and fun to watch, and we see the dramas played out in their life through the eyes of Dex. This is a truly original series that hooked me quickly with its stories and interesting characters- highly recommended! You can run but can't hide.... November 20, 2008tweetykiss (Chicago, IL USA) I had never heard of this show nor actor before until it came on CBS due to the writer's strike last year and a friend told me I should watch it. Glad that I took her advice. I love the whole series. I bought the DVDs and keep me on edge even though I had seen some on TV. The ice-truck killer is one of the best cases and it keeps people guessing. It also keeps the viewer guessing about Dexter's past which he cannot remember until it is almost too late. No one can play this role better than Michael C. Hall. Another actor in there who plays a doctor looks like Chris Sarandon so any fans of his will love this as well. But I highly recommend this show. Dexter Rocks November 3, 2008Lisa A. Herring (Fort Wayne, IN. USA) I absolutely love Dexter. It is witty and it is certainly far different from any other show I have ever watched. Just think A serial Killer with morals and a code of honor, how odd! Absolutely can't miss November 3, 20081 out of 1 found this review helpful It's not often that we, the viewing audience, are asked to root for a serial killer to get away with murder. But we are. And we do! There is palpable tension in every episode that genuinely made me nervous for the plight of our anti-hero. Our anti-hero is a blood spatter analyst for the forensics department and is clinically and then personally drawn into the progression of murders that happens by another serial killer. I think even more interesting than the plot, which is methodical, coherent, a bit scary, and quite entertaining, the characters themselves are very intriguing. Dexter is obviously broken and doing his best to fake being a human being with otherwise normal behaviors and reactions. But his attempt at a relationship with his girlfriend Rita gives the indication that perhaps Dexter is redeemable... No matter what, at the conclusion of the first season, you will want to buy the second season and see what is in store for Dexter. This is some of the finest television ever made. Technical notes: - The cinematography is beautiful. - The dialogue is amusing where it needs to be, somber elsewhere, and while at times stilted, is quite effective. - The music is perfect for the settings. - The introduction sequence may disturb some people while making others quite hungry. I am of the hungry persuasion. Great! October 31, 2008S. Miganowicz (Leominster, MA) Got to me in a timely fashion and was exactly what I ordered - brand new DVD, still in the plastic wrap. Was very pleased with my product. | |||||||||||
