Dexter Morgan, played by Michael Hall, is the main character of this Showtime TV series. The show focuses on the life of Dexter who is a serial killer.

The series blends drama and horror as it follows the day-to-day events in the life of Dexter Morgan, a forensic blood spatter analyst for the Miami Metro Police Department who also happens to be a serial killer. He was taught by his adoptive father, Harry, only to kill those "who deserve it"; mainly, other killers who have escaped the legal system or were never suspected in the first place. The series shows him balancing an everyday life with his secret identity, all while keeping up a facade of normalcy.

Wonderfully original idea for tv-- serial killer works as a blood splatter expert for the cops by day & kills evil doers in his spare time.

It's never been so easy to love a serial killer!

Though his madness should make you dislike him, his strangely lovable. … more
