Darkly dreaming Dees.....


Yes...Nanny pumpernickel also has a dark side:)...:-) but this one is called Dexter!
I have watched (read:devoured)all 4 seasons now and can not wait for season 5 to begin!When my eldest daughter brought me the first season on dvd I thought it wasn't for me but now...I am so totally hooked!.I think it also has to do with the actor who plays Dexter (Micheal C Hall) who makes Dexter ..well Dexter! If you know what I mean.I have to admit I have seen most episodes twice already of all 4 seasons..and I am now looking for the book Darkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay..it has been translated in dutch already but I think I prefer to read it in english.For those of you that are a bit squamish....perhaps Dexter is not for you,but if you are looking for dark humor,great story lines and awesome acting....Dexter is definately your guy and will soon be your favorite serial killer!
Yes...you read it right...he is a serial killer...but in a kind of Robin Hood way!LOL
One review that sort of sums it up for me:
"For the last word on serial killers, leave it to the witty narrator of Jeff Lindsay's ghoulish first novel....[T]he real appeal of this macabre tour-de-force is Dexter's sardonic voice, so snappy and smart, and yet so full of self-loathing that we hate ourselves for laughing."

  1. Het zal een knap in elkaar gezet verhaal zijn wil je sympathie voelen voor een seriemoordenaar. Ik ben 'm nog niet tegen gekomen op tv maar word wel nieuwsgierig.
