I started watching it coz you recommended it and I'm completely hooked as well. Just watched the first 7 episodes by now. It's just so strange but so damn good.
I friggin' love the opening credits. So brilliant... And this show is a quotes haven for me, haha... all the voice overs are too awesome. Eventhough his voice is pretty annoying in the beginning, but I got used to it now...
"Everyone hides who they are at least some of the time. Sometimes you bury that part of yourself so deeply that you have to be reminded that it's there at all, and sometimes you just want to forget who you are altogether." (Ep. 1.04)
So yeah, I've found another favourite TV Show.
Thank you, Tyler. =)

"I think this is a friendly message, like "Hey, wanna play?" and yes I want to play. I really do." Bahaha. I'm so in love with the voice overs...
Yay, we found another addict.

Mahone-14
More people are watching it, brill *Thumbs Up*.
I love the way he has just no emotion, and some of the lines make me laugh so much, ill quote some in spoiler tags
Spoiler:
Not sure its exactly how it goes but its something like....
when he is imagining telling deb hes the BHB...
"Its Me...Im the Butcher"....
Debra - Watching ice melt, this is fun.
Masuoka - Stand a little closer, Morgan, and I'll melt your heart.
Masouka is so funny, when he was running after that guy and pulled out that huge gun, classic
Manz

Mahone-14
Its about a guy who ever since he was a child has had a "hunger" to kill people, so his step father teaches him how to control it y only killing people who deserver it, he has no emotions, but has to pretend to everyone around him (His sister, his girlfriend, workmates ect.) That he is as normal as they come, while doing this he still has feed his "hunger" by killing people
Manz
Wow sounds wicked, i will start it after supernatural
Mahone-14
Yeah, defo watch it, its brilliant
Robsessed
^ lol, the serie is a complete quotes haven...
Spoiler:
The scene he was imagining to tell Deb he's the butcher was pure slapstick, loved it. I laughed so much...
Dex: Interesting hand job
Angel: That was funny.
Dex: Was it?
Or when he got to know Rita's mother: how he talked about thinking of parents as aliens from another universe. weird fibers... ancient rituals... bahaha... just loved the tone he talks in on that scene...
Well, I finished watching S2 monday night, great ending... ^__^

It started last night, I know it's abot the 4th time I watched the pilot but still...Man that is one of the best pilots ive ever seen seriously!!!! It seems so much longer than it actually is, so much happens in it...and it wasnt cut or anything whoohoo, so wednesdays at 11 people ITV1
Manz
oh no i missed it..

Yep, been watching Dexter since it was first shown in the UK on FX (early 2007 ish). I love it, it's brilliant. It' being shown on ITV1 on Weds @ 10.35pm in the UK now, 2nd episode was on this week. It's repeated on ITV4 on a Friday but not sure what time. It's really hard to explain to people what it's about without people looking at you like you're mad, but it's soo worth it
I think Michael C Hall plays an excellent part. One of my favourite episodes is "Shrink wrapped" - brilliant, that's all I can say... go Dex
fish
Episode 4 on in 45 mins. Woo hooo

I soooo have to catch up I'm falling behind now.....

Well Mush and Sas have recommended Dexter to be and I totally loved it right away.
I watched like all of season one and two in like 1 and 1/2 weeks. So now I cannot wait to see season three.
fish
There's quite a long re-cap at the start of each episode but not really enough to give you the details.
Although I did notice something again in the opening credits.... we see him having a shave (and cutting himself) but by the time he's cooked & eaten brekkie and got dressed, he has stubble again

lmao I recommended it now you have more watched than I do .......

Did anyone watch the last episode that was on (ep 6 - return to sender)?
Those of you who haven't seen it already - what did you think? There's not an episode that I haven't enjoyed. I thought I'd post a few pictures (no spoilers), including my new sig pic , so no you're not seeing double - it's for when I change again. Call it my souvenier.... my drop of blood on my slide
Sorry about all the different sizes. I just love the look on Doakes's face in the 6th one
fish
Did anyone see last night's episode? (s01e07 - circle of friends)
I just LOVED Dex's smile right at the end when he realises the guy's not who they're looking for. So creepy and sooo funny
Here's an ad for those who STILL haven't watched it!!
They're going to show this on mainstream Australian TV now.. haha. Who needs cable? They always end up showing it on the regular networks in the end..
fish
YAY!!
Let me know what you think
Scofield09
Dexter is an awesome show! I read the book first, and when I found out theat they were making it into a series, I was so excited! I recommend reading the book and watching the show!
fish
I didn't know when I saw the trailers for the programme that it was a book, it was only a couple of episodes in I noticed the based on....
I think it would ruin the series for me now if I read the books. I do WANT to read them, but I have the TV Dexter in my head. If I'd known, I'd definitely have read the books first - I always try and do that
fish
Just saw an advert - season 2 starts on FX in the UK next Sunday (6th July).

ok, tonight I got to see the pilot. It was as good as I expected I have to say, I really appreciate watching a cop show where I actually get to see the sick freaks getting what they deserve..
fish
^^ Hehe, glad you enjoyed it Fi
The 2nd series starts in just over 10 mins. I've seen it already, but who cares....

I'm a bit confused about Dexter himself.. is he an actual clinical psychopath? How come he doesn't have feelings.. but can still feel empathy for other people? And how come he likes eating so much, but doesn't like sex?

Haha good questions Fi, Yeah I think he is supposed to be a clinical psychopath, if he hadn't been raised by his adoptive dad he wouldnt have any empathy for anyone in fact i don't think he shows much anyway but the little he does show is down to his dad trying to instill some morals in him lmao, see how bad **** turned out cos he never had that good influence that understood his psychosis like dexters dad did for him
well that's my views lmao
Robsessed
^ I had to edit the name out... it could spoil...
How far are you Fi?
But yeah, he just got sort of "moral guidelines" through his Foster dad. He just kills by his dad's "code". I don't think he has any feelings at all, he's just faking them to appear "normal"...
Maybe we should all read the novels to understand him better, lol.
I love the episode Dex visits the psychiatrist (S1, epi 8 or 9 I believe?!) it tells a lot about his past and how he became what he is...

I wasn't going to read them cos I thought the series might have spoiled the books for me but am gonna give 'em a go anyway
Shrink wrapped - LOVE that episode. I posted a vid on here of it i think. Not sure though.
Would you believe I forgot to watch it last night?!?!?
It's on again tomorrow, so will have to set my alarm to make sure I put the tv on

I watched season 1 episode 2 the other night.
I'll guess I'll keep watching and my questions will be answered. But it's making it difficult for me to understand what motivates him in his interactions with people.
littlechimpy
Ok I couldn't help myself, I did some research and ran into a few spoilers, lol, but now I'm satisfied. I don't think Dexter has no feelings, I feel as if events in his youth might have traumatised him into a numbness and the urges to kill come from the same trauma. He has a soft spot for kids, which is telling. Psychopaths are cruel and have no remorse, also they can't abstain from their urges like the rest of us, whereas Dexter manages to resist. So I don't think he is what he thinks he is.

*cries and has a tantrum* They're not showing it again until mid August - damn Aussie TV scheduling. Can I say that's one thing I effing hate about this country? They ditch good shows all the time for sport. Goddam bloody sport-a-holics. I'm gonna grow a football for a head!
