Dexter


If anyone is watching Dexter on Showtime, as religiously as Charlie and I, you'll know how easy it is to be sucked into the show. It's clever and witty and really hard to not like Dexter and even fantasize about him....ahem..... The show has an interesting sub plot aswell. I'm hooked! And just for the record, I totally called the doctor!

Charlie and I were talking one day about writers having a hard time coming up with new ideas for shows (shows are getting very dry and done over and over again. Not to name any names like, CSI or anything, but we feel that they are occasionally "reaching" for new ideas.) and he mentioned how interesting it would be if there was a forensic pathologist who was the serial killer and could easily manipulate the system from the inside to get away with the crime.

Low and behold! Dexter!

He's a totally likeable character even though he's a vicious killer and seems to have a few psychological "skeletons" in his closet. Pun intended. But who doesn't, when you're a sociopath! Dexter is a serial killer with a conscience and only takes the lives of the wicked and evil. That makes us love him even more. "gush gush" Not to mention that Dexter is a really cool name. Charlie wants to name our next child Dexter, if it's a boy.

If you get a chance, watch it! You won't be sorry.

Happy watching!
