My sister got me ADDICTED to Dexter cause she wanted to watch season 1 and catch up to where he was. It was insanely good and ive become so addicted. I watched that whole season, and now I'm watching season 2. Totally didn't know Lila, died, kind of interested to see how that plays out (please dont spoil it for me). I've read the summaries for season 2 though, maybe I should read more? HaHa. I definetly enjoy watching it, despite it sociopathic tendencies. One thing that has upset me is that they didn't play out the Doakes/Deb relationship that seemed to form in Season 1? I really liked that :) But, all in all, good show!

My lovely husband got me addicted to this show. He is alot like Dexter, so it creeps me out a lil every now and then but I adore Dexter. The show is amazing and funny and creepy. It's one of the best shows on cable.

I started watching Dexter when my boyfriend took me over to his parents' for Sunday supper. It's like a little ritual for them. Supper, then serial killers. I really like it and thought it was a neat little "joke" that Dexter is going on and on about not having feelings when he does. He just doesn't realize he does. It makes life "safer" to say you don't have feelings. If he didn't have feelings, he wouldn't be so worried for his girlfriend and her kids, or be so rattled when he finds that he's going to be a dad. I can't wait for the next season to start.
Though, I have to admit, I thought the season finale was a little stupid. I mean, he had a connection to the DA, therefore it's quite plausible that he would be a target, and no one would blame him if he killed in self-defense. I think it would have been better if he stuck around and I think the only reason why he didn't is because it would have made the show too long. Season finale, and all that.

Well you're right he does have a connection to the DA however it wouldn't explain how Dexter always seems to end up involved in the action. I think he would feel it legitimatly best to just stay out of things.
And as for the books, I adore the show but actually like the books very much as well. I think that the show has expanded on the characters and the storyline beautifully and thanks to their expansion they also have time to incoporate more from the books into the show. For example in the books Debra knows Dexter's secret and Rita's kids are just like Dexter. Well Cody is, Astor is more of an accomplice or a watcher. Although, I think they should forget the supernatural stuff. It didn't really mesh well in the books and it wouldn't fit in at all with the direction the show is going in.
Either way I think they have plenty of fodder for a 4th season without too much repitition. Especially with the finale being a clean break and sort of different then the usual.

I wondered about why he didn't just stick around when I first saw it myself. Came to the conclusion that it wouldn't be a good idea.
"So you broke your own hand and then the Skinner's neck huh. Good work Dex. So where did you pick that up? College judo classes you say. Not bad buddy old pal. I'll stop by with those files you wanted on that other killer whom we haven't been able to catch after lunch tomorrow okay? Save me a raspberry filled dough nut would you?"
I really hope they won't try to fit in any of the supernatural stuff from Dexter in the dark. It ruined the book for me, and would definitely ruin the show.
On a lighter note, does anyone else get the feeling that Deb will find out about Dexters little hobby in the coming seson?
