Dexter

My new favourite show is Dexter! Been watching all the three series so far and can't wait for the fourth.
I used to be totally in love with Prison Break and even though at the fourth series still recognize the ups and downs and the adrenaline, it's all becoming way too corny. I miss the first series, when everything was still more or less real and simple. Second series was still good and followed naturally the escape from Fox River. The third series I thought it would be bad, but being in a prison in Panama reminded me of the first series, so it wasn't all that bad. Fourth though it's bringing too much personal history and you start forgetting what was it all about from the beginning.

However, I sincerely hope Dexter won't go down that lane...

Dexter is a serial killer. He has been raised by his foster father, an ex-cop, to deal with his problem by killing only killers and not before he has proven they were guilty. He works as a forensics specialist for the Miami Police and so is his foster sister, Debra. He has a girlfriend and is now engaged to be married and soon to be a father. What's great about Dexter is that he is leading a totally normal life and after three series he is starting to feel like a normal guy. Only that he kills people :) He's killed his demented brother, known by the police as the Ice Truck Killer, after he kidnapped Debra and wanted to kill her together with Dexter, and his best friend, the local Assistant DA Miguel Prado, the only guy who understood him and wanted to help him to kill people, only that he was willing to kill innocent people and that didn't match Dexter's code, and got rid of the crazy English woman that was totally in love with him and wanted to kill him and his girlfriend's children to prove a point.
I know it all sounds crazy and out of this world but that is what's great about this show. Dexter makes everything seem so daily routine and there are a few well constructed chracaters. Debra, my favourite, is one of them. She's tall and skinny, pretty, has a big mouth, is very honest and true to her principles and a damn good cop! Detective Angel Batista is lovely and down to Earth and precint liuetenant Maria LaGuerta is a strong willed woman that actually has a heart.
All and all, one show not to be missed. There's a lot of action and not a single boring moment. At the end, you'll love Dexter and you'll want him to be happy. He is such a nice serial killer! :)
