- Dexter's early life before his foster parents the Morgans took him in is a mystery
- Dexter's job is to interpret blood splatters at crime scenes
- Dexter is played by Michael C. Hall who I first enjoyed in Six Feet Under on HBO
- For his entire life, Dexter has been learning how to act normal and fit in with general society
- Harry Morgan, Dexter's adoptive father, was a cop and recognized Dexter's urge to kill early
- Harry taught Dexter to be "normal" and to use his psychopathology for good (only killing the "bad" guys)
- Dexter's sister Deb is one tough cookie (and also a cop)
- I love psychological thrillers and this gives me a one hour dose each time I watch it
- The show has a cool theme song
