I am right in the middle of watching season two of "Dexter," which I think is one of the greatest shows of this decade. My favorite show of all time is "Six Feet Under," which starred Michael C. Hall as conservative, gay, pale-faced, neatly-dressed, squirmy, and overly sensitive David Fisher. As Dexter, Hall could not possibly be more different: he's tan, unshaven, unemotional, and oh, a sociopath. Dexter's foster father realized this about his son early on and trained him with a code to let out his violent urges only on people who are killers themselves, thereby rendering a twisted service to society. He's a forensic blood spatter analyst for the police department, another way he fulfills his urges. The show is intense, dark, funny, ridiculous, suspenseful...it's brilliant. It was just renewed for another two seasons, which makes me a very happy camper. Now if only I had Showtime and didn't have to wait for it to come out on DVD!
