Anyone else watch Dexter? Really after watching season 2 and the trailer for season 3 I am starting to believe that this could possibly be one of the greatest shows ever. I mean most of my love of the show goes to just the development of Dexter I mean all the things he goes through and how the character just evolves makes him to me one of the greatest characters on T.V. I'm a big Dexter fan and I absolutely love the show. Michael C. Hall is probably one of the most underrated actors today despite being in two critically acclaimed shows. The best thing about the show is easily the script writing and the way they're able to have a recurring element, but keep it from getting monotonous. Funny story, I watched the first season of Dexter and through that I checked out Six Feet Under mostly because of Hall and Peter Krause from Sports Night. I finished up Six Feet under and, unless you've watched the show, you might not be aware that Hall plays a gay character on the show who is dating a black cop. A black cop that looks remarkably like Doakes from Dexter. When Season 2 of Dexter started all I could feel was this weird sexual tension between Dexter and Doakes because of Hall's portrayal of a gay man on Six Feet Under. It was hilarious and unsettling at the same time. Here's a picture of his Hall and his boyfriend on the show. For the life of me I can't remember their names and don't care enough to look them up.

The CI finale was great; very engaging. Goran's mentor, portrayed by former Smallville actor John Glover, was fantastic. SVU's on now. I think he is better known as the scientist who created Bane in Batman and Robin Chasikins...we all know it to be true.

I love Six Feet Under (even though I need to finish it) I pretty much stated watching it after Dexter but thought it wasn't going to be a good show but pretty much fell in love with it. And Really Michael C. Hall really needs to be in more things I mean every character he dose is always great and I really don't understand why he isn't recognized much more than he is.

I've been wanting to download Dexter for awhile now, just haven't gotten around to it.

I thought I was gonna scream from all the times Spidey cried out "HANG ON, M.J.!" on Spider-Man 3. Hopefully the fourth installment has Ms. Dunst hanging precariously off of many more unsteady surfaces.
Oh, and that Bruce Campbell gets a lasting role.

Just finished season 6 of the Shield and now I can't wait till Tuesday, I really think that the final season will probably be one of the biggest series finales to ever come from a T.V. show I mean if after all the things that has happened in the first 6 seasons doesn't end in some fucking mind blowing ending then I'm going to have to kill the writers.

The only bad thing I found wrong with the season 6 finale that nothing big happened I mean coming off of last season I expected something bigger to happen.

I thought season 6 was the worst season of the show, after Forrest left the season just completely went straight downhill. I hate angry and bitter Vic Mackey, I like it more when he isn't so mean.

I was surprised he was killed off the show so quickly but then again at first I never really expected him to stick around for so long.

I think the show has gotten progressively better every season since the third. I don't remember why, it's been so long since I saw the episodes, but I thought the third was the weakest of them all. I probably should have caught up with season six before tomorrow, but I remember how it ended and that's all I need.

I think 2 is the weakest season for some reason, I should really rewatch the seasons because while I know of everything that is going on, I don't know it to a tee.

A small request.
If you guys want to talk about the show do you mind using spoiler tags? It airs a weak behind up here so I'll be downloading the show which means I won't get to see it until Wednesday evening.

This season of Dexter looks like it's going to be really really good.
I've never liked Jimmy Smits, but he's going to be an interesting character. This season starts of with a bang and I'm actually more excited for it than The Shield. That's something I never thought I would say.

Watched that episode of Dexter and I can't wait to see what is in store for the rest of the season.
Also anyone excited for the new HBO show True Blood? It's written by one of the co-producers from Six Feet Under, not 100% sure what it's about from the previews but it still looks good and I'm really looking forward to it.

I fucking loved it. There really isn't a whole lot else to say except that Kevin Nealon is the single best part of this show and I absolutely loved how they teased him killing himself only to use it to show how big of a perverted asshole he is. Great finale and probably my favorite season of the show.

Great finale and probably my favorite season of the show. I was seriously going to freak out when I thought he was going to kill himself until well...you know. My only concern with it is sometimes when they throw a baby into a show, it goes downhill from there.

Yeah, but they really had no other out. Is it wrong that I want them to kill off Shane? Holy fuck that kid is annoying.

Maybe she just made it up in order to save herself but the scene in the car makes me think otherwise. I actually think I hate Silas more but both kids drive me nuts. I can't remember much of Season 1, was that the original Quinn?

According to IMDB it is. I honestly didn't even remember that she had another kid.
Yeah the kids are easily the worst part of the show, but whatever. I don't really think that she's lying about the pregnancy, I just think there was no other way to get her out of the predicament that she was in. There really is no good reason other than that for them not to kill her.
