The first season of this creepy dramedy series, follows Dexter Morgan, a forensics expert who spends his free time as a serial killer, eradicating some of the city's most notorious criminals one by one.

From reviews I read from various sources suggest Dexter is very good. I found this very gory like a horror film i.e taking drills to someones head etc. Why can't he use a gun and make this like a vigilante instead of some sick twisted serial killer. Dexter is as bad as the guilty if not worse.

Dexter works for the police as forensic expert in blood working closely with a variety of characters in the department, including his sister. However in his spare time he uses his training to murder people he feels has escaped the law.I found Dexter very engaging viewing with well drawn characters and an interestng premise. The comedy is very black and the underlying series story lines are compelling leaving one desperate to reach the series conclusion. I'm looking forward to series 2.

Program appears to be a bit weak in the first few episodes, but after that it becomes one of the best drama thrillers ever!

'Dexter' is an adaptation of Jeff Lindsay's books about a 'blood-splatter' expert with Miami Police Department's forensic division. Imagine 'CSI: Miami' crossed with 'The Silence of The Lambs' and throw in the humour of 'The Sopranos' and you're there. Dexter is one bad dude! He is a serial-killer who justifies what he does by only killing bad guys. He takes out the trash when the law fails and as viewers we delight in seeing the bad guys get their dues. Michael C Hall ('Six Feet Under') shines in the title role which is by far his best role to date. 'Dexter' comes as a breath of fresh air in the wake of so many similar, repetitive shows from across the pond.

I guessed who the Ice Truck Killer was before it was revealed but it still didnt ruin the end for me. At last Dexter found emotion within. Can't wait for series two!

Fine series totally wrecked by getting the discs in the order disc 2 & 4 then a week later 3 and never seeing disc 1 . I still don't know how the story starts.
