Season 1 Synopsis:
Orphaned at the age of three and harboring a traumatic secret, Dexter (Michael C. Hall) was adopted by a Miami police officer who recognized his homicidal tendencies and taught him to channel his gruesome passion for human dissection in a "constructive" way—by killing only heinous criminals (such as child molesters, mob assassins, and serial killers of the innocent) who have slipped through the justice system. To satisfy his interest in blood and to facilitate his own crimes, Dexter works as a blood spatter analyst for the Miami police. Although his drive to kill is unflinching, he is easily able to emulate normal emotions and keep up his appearance as a socially-responsible human being. He is well-liked by most of his colleagues, his girlfriend, and her children.

This is a Showtime original show so I do not think it is available elsewhere. I am sure you can find it on the web someplace else. However the quality and service is not as good.

iTunes....Europe....noooooooo....I know back in January they were talking about allowing iTunes Video in the UK but not sure what came of that. Plus if they use their regular pricing (as most companies that branch into European markets do) each episode would be £1.99 which is equivilant to $4 per episode.....no thanks.

But back to the show! I called the Ice truck Killer early on- as soon as I knew what his profession was. The whole season was excellent and I really can't wait for the next season.

You could of course watch it on tv-video.net.  That is still free and you could then see if it was something you wanted to use your VIP points on.  If it doesnt play well at first try viewing at different times in the day to find the less busy times.  

I've just about "warmed" to this show.  You could enjoy it.

I actually wanted to be Dexter after seeing the first couple of episodes. It would be so much easier to be hollow inside
Author: reremamore    Time: 8-29-2007 07:38     Subject: oh my!

I had to scroll down fast because I'm only on the 2nd episode and I don't want to know who the Ice killer is.
Wow this show is amazing.  Who thinks these things up?  The writer is twisted but it really works.  He makes you sympathize and really like a serial killer.  
When I was told to start watching this show I was not really sure and then within the first few minutes of the first episode I was hooked.
does anyone think that Michael(dexter) looks so much different in this role.  I can't pinpoint what it is. Maybe the way he holds his eyes?  I don't know but its weird.
After I finish the rest of the first season I'll come back on this thread and discuss with you guys.
Author: trulee    Time: 8-29-2007 07:50     Subject: Reply #26 reremamore's post

Like you, it took me a couple of episodes to get into this show.  I found I enjoyed it despite the premise of the show.  I am now looking forward to the next season.  I wont spoil things for you though, I'll wait till you've caught us all up so we can chat.

I havent read the books either but I do like this show, sometimes I think against my better judgement, the subject matter being what it is.

We also have season 2 on our VIP site so you can keep up with things there once you've completed season 1.

]This is getting ridiculous dexter used to be so good to watch and this season has been disappointing apart from the first 2 episode rest of the reason is a disappointment. Miguel who is suppose to be the good guy is turning out to a bad guy , i can't believe he has asked Dexter to kill her she hasn't done anything wrong but like he said it's personal. Than that other woman asked dexter to kill her because she dying and I'm glad he sticking to this rules. Dexter has decide who his friends are but Miguel is only one that knows dexter secret and doesn't have a problem with it. i just feel he going to get killed . Deb getting too close to that guy it's going hurt her when he eventually get killed.

what.i think this show is getting better and better.i think the season started slow but got realy well.it seems you prefer a more simple show.the miguel wanting that women dead is pure psycology.he got the taste of justice that can be assured so he was careless and wanted to get a person that is causing him frustration.its like giving a kid candy,hell want more and in bigger doses.this show has been  put alot of thaught to. its not as simple as one tree hill or the o.c.

Well the problem i have is that i enjoyed the first 2 season as episode were always keeping me guessing but this season just seem like dexter make a friend and we are going to see what type of monster Miguel is going become it's clear last episode he has no code he want kill because he enjoys it but does anyone think end of season dexter is going to kill Miguel because he become out of control. i perfer a complicated show that keep me guessing but i manage to guess most of things that happen this season. nothing has surprised unlike the last season.

Author: VIP555509    Time: 11-28-2008 22:13     Subject: Well so far

this season hasn't disappointed me.  The ending to season two was a great disappointment - there were so many things that didn't add up and it simply ended all wrong.  It was very easy to guess the outcome last season.  This one is cracking up to be almost as good as season one though.. so hoping it will be less predictable.  Have known since Dexter met miguel that Dexter will kill him though - even though he still hasn't I know this will happen.  I hope there is more to the season final than that.
