Not since discovering Firefly, thanks to arfcom, have I found a series that absolutely kicks as much ass.

anyone else watch it?


I watched both seasons within a week.  Just couldn't stop myself

Yes, it's terrific, and the book it is based on, "Darkly Dreaming Dexter" by Jeff Lindsay is really good as well.  I've been watching avidly since the series premiered.

Too bad all the nudity is going to be clipped.

I’m really a big fan of the series.  It’ll be nice to see Season 3 come out soo.

Are the books close to the show and are they worth a read?

The first season followed the first book VERY closely, with a slightly altered ending and a little more content in the series to prolong the story into 13 episodes.

The second season bears no resemblance to the second book (other than characters and setting, etc), although it would make an excellent season by itself.

The third book was not to my liking as it took the series in a different direction which I did not find nearly as appealing.

I just watched season 2 and wow I really like this series but I hope next season is the last. I hate when they just keep milking a series out.

Love this show.  Nice to finally see a relatable protagonist on TV.

Next thing you know Dexter will discover oil and move to Beverly Hills.

I actually started watching season 1 on NetFlix last night... the first four episodes hooked me.

I really like SGT Doakes - a great character and a great actor.  There is a scene in season 2 where he is talking to LT Laguerta and she says "You've killed two people in six months James" and he replies "I've killed a lot more than two."  If you watch his face when he says that, I think that is one of the most perfect and realistic expressions I've ever seen, and it takes a great actor to pull that off so naturally.  That scene really stuck with me for some reason.

Yes, Dexter is entirely the shit.  Can't wait for season 3.  There were moments towards the end of the first season, and especially towards the end of the second that I had to pause the show and catch my breath.
