Michael C. Hall is Bloody Good as Dexter, Serial Killer

Date of Review:  Apr 23, 2008
The Bottom Line: Excellent Season 1 introduces us to Dexter with a dramatic finish at the end.
Review: For me, the writer's strike of '07-'08 was actually a good thing. Missing my favorite TV shows wasn't a big deal; in fact, it enabled me to do two things: 1) finally watch the 20 hours of saved TV shows and movies on my TiVo, leaving more than 15...

I defy you to dislike the deliciously devilish DEXTER

Date of Review:  Mar 24, 2008
The Bottom Line: Recommend for entertainment value
Review: Dexter is a thoroughly entertaining, witty, macabre series from Showtime starring Michael C Hall.

Michael C Hall has previously portrayed David Fisher, a gay, repressed mortician, in HBO's series Six Feet Under. I was a fan of the series...

Dexter - The Complete First Season - Not Your Average Serial Killer

Date of Review:  May 17, 2009
The Bottom Line: Dexter is a very entertaining well done series.  Dexter - The Complete First Season is a great set for fans of the show.
Review: Over the last several years, some of the premium movie channels have started airing original shows in addition to movies.  Showtime began to air Dexter in 2006 and the show has been very popular.  I've read and heard good things about the series, so...

Dexter Marathon, Waiting for Season Two on DVD

Date of Review:  Jun 10, 2008
The Bottom Line: I would recommend seeing this in DVD format over cut network versions. That is if you can handle bad language. If not, see the cut network version.
Review: My daughter started telling me about Dexter during the first season. We were all fans of Michael C. Hall because of Six Feet Under. I was a little startled that my daughter told me that he was a serial killer that I'd LIKE.

I appreciate...

Dexter- Dark, Dysfunctional, Detective Deals with Demons, Dreams of Dullness and Del

Date of Review:  Aug 30, 2007
The Bottom Line: Depraved, Deep and Disturbing. Deliciously Droll. I'm a Devotee. It's Dope.
Review: "Have you seen Dexter?"
I raise my head from my computer at work. It's Vanessa, a good friend and the television savant that got me hooked on LOST. Due to this, I respect her decision when it comes to new shows and my attention perks up. It's...

"Hi... I'm Dexter Morgan And I Just Bought The House Next Door"

Date of Review:  May 7, 2008
The Bottom Line: "Mommy... when I grow up I want to be a blood-spatter expert..."
Review: Dexter. When I was growing-up, boys with names like Dexter, Clarence, Blair and Maurice were teased to no end by their classmates. For this reason, I vowed never to use the nickname Dick; though, until convinced otherwise, some teachers insisted...

DEXTER takes life. Seriously.....

Date of Review:  Oct 25, 2009
The Bottom Line:

The predator stalks predators, and is hunted in turn.  Insanity as a tool of justice.  Wicked Brilliant.

Review: Dexter: Season One From the books of Jeff Lindsay.

"It's like he's trying to impress me.   And it is working!"

Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall) is a forensic specialist in blood splatters for the Miami Police Department.  He knows...

Dark Dreams of Redemption

Date of Review:  Nov 25, 2007
The Bottom Line: Excellent writing and acting, the dvd set may qualify as Dosteovsky for the Twenty-First Century.
Review: The Showtime series "Dexter" is based on a novel (Darkly Dreaming Dexter), which I haven't read, by an author with whom I am not familiar (Jeff Lindsay).

The serial killer in this DVD of the first season, like the pop comic superhero,...

Dexter: A Cut Above Most Shows

Date of Review:  Apr 10, 2008
The Bottom Line: Mix "Silence of the Lambs" with any CSI show and you've got Dexter. There might be quarts of blood in the series, but it never really gets too graphic.
Review: I work in the motion picture industry, yet I had never heard of "Dexter" until after the first season aired on Showtime. Hmmm, maybe because I didn't subscribe to Showtime - just a guess.

My wife and I were in our local video shop one...

A Serial Killer To Die For

Date of Review:  Dec 19, 2008
The Bottom Line: You’ll find yourself not only rooting for a serial killer but genuinely concerned for his well-being and worried sick he’d be caught.
Review: THE PREMISE

During the day, Dexter Morgan is a mild-mannered blood spatter analyst with the Miami Police Department.  But come the night, he takes a walk on the sinister side, as he tracks down evil-doers who have somehow eluded the law, and...
