Conflicting emotions about Dexter Morgan
26 December 2006
A serial killer who works for the police department. What an intriguing storyline. A good bad-guy, or a bad good-guy. Maybe both. You decide. Give yourself the opportunity to have a first-hand opinion about Dexter. I loved this show from the first episode to the last. I am now going to get the book because there's no way I want to miss the opportunity to get into the mind of Dexter (and I'm sure the book won't let me down). Truly macabre and stirred in me some really conflicting emotions. How can I condone the actions of Dexter. He seems no better than the serial killers he "puts down". But he lives (and kills) by a code. The code of Harry, which differentiates him from the other killers and herein lies the conflict.

The beginning of the episodes is somewhat disturbing and deliberately so as it sets the tone for each episode. I'm a fan of thrillers and horrors and this certainly satiated my appetite for quality thrillers. Definitely worth a watch. I know I'm hooked!

Michael C Hall plays a fantastic Dexter.
