Default Dexter

Anyone else seen this show, it's pretty fucking cool, and crazy.

Quick plot summary:
Orphaned at the age of three and harboring a traumatic secret, Dexter was adopted by a Miami police officer named Harry Morgan who recognized his sociopathic tendencies and taught him to channel his gruesome passion for killing and dissecting in a "constructive" way: by killing only heinous criminals (such as mob assassins and serial killers of the innocent) who have slipped through the justice system. To satisfy his interest in blood and to facilitate his own crimes, Dexter works as a blood spatter analyst for the Miami police. Although his drive to kill is unflinching (otherwise overcome by a feeling of "emptiness") Dexter is, through extensive instruction from Harry, able to fake most normal emotions and keep up his appearance as a socially-responsible human being. He is well-liked by most of his colleagues (with the exception of Sgt. James Doakes), his adoptive sister, Deb, and his girlfriend Rita (Including her children, Cody and Astor).


The show is quite interesting, and mostly told form a first person perspective of Dexter (Who also narrates). While it can be disturbing to a point, the shows overall tone is quite uplifting, with Dexter killing only those who commit crimes. Throughout the first season, he searches for another serial killer whom is labled The Ice Truck Killer (Because he kills people, and uses ice trucks to move their bodies around because the cold keeps them fresh).

The show was released on DVD, and I plan to pick it up. Hopefully, soon.

HOLY FUCK, I FINISHED IT THIS PAST WEEKEND TOO!

EERIE!

OMG, Speaker. Torrent season two. After tomorrow's Xbox 360 update, the fucking thing will play Xvid files.

Not kidding, at all. They announced Divx and Xvid support for Xbox 360 (In Avi and Mp4 containers, aswell as h264!).

Phi, google it.

Personally, I am waiting a few weeks so the final two episodes of season two air, so I can watch them in one go. >_>

I'm only at ep five, so shut up!

Although, I'll finish it before you will.

Ironically, I could burn the episodes and watch them on the 360 (Thanks for the xvid playback, MS!).
