best show i have ever seen in my life. the character dexter is amazing. first of all he is a bad ass. and i love how in everyday situations he is so clueless but hes also a genius. i can not get enough of this show. the books are also amazing. in the books he refers to himself as a wolf in a sheeps fur. wich is so clever. highly recomend watching the show and reading the books

This show is truly great. Great characters, awesome plot, and highly entertaining. Addicting, really. In my opinion, Season 4 is the best. Season 6 let me down a little bit. But I still love this show and I would recommend it to anyone.

I really enjoy this show. It is more complex than you think. It combines many different elements: suspense, comedy, drama, etc. The plot is very unpredictable, which is a great feature in a show.

Just started watching this show from the pilot −4 episodes, I would give it a 6 out of 10. Maybe a need to give the show more time to develop?
Any comments?
