Dexter: Season 2
T**S
Sometimes the Dead Speak
In the second season a certain person's body dump is found, and the FBI bring in a Special Agent by the name of Frank Lundy to look into the case. This makes Dexter feel cornered, but not as cornered as the things that dealing with Rita's ex make him feel. she insists on a 12-step program and he finally goes, meeting a force called Lila in the process. Lila makes Dexter a promise that she will heal him, too, and he hopes everything he hears is true. along with that are troubles that involve Doakes, the man who killed his mother, control, and a sister that is climbing the ladder as she works toward that detective badge.In the second season, Dexter picks up where it left off and adds in quite a few twists and turns that I didn't expect. The Rita's-ex situation has some ripples that I didn't see coming, and those ripples has some negative impacts and some positives that pay off big time. There is also the thing with the Bay Harbor Butcher case that cause so many conflicts in Dexter's life, and that lead to something that I didn't see coming. As with everything else in the series, the acting is great and the character development keeps on keeping on, making things all-the-more beautiful when it comes to the show. Also added to this is the exploration of Deb and the way that she gets over what took place last season, making things interesting - to say the least. Adding to all of this is the way that the killings are done in such artistic fashion, plus the fact that we find out more about Harry and about Dexter's past - namely his mother. This brings up some serious question in Dexter's mind and it starts something that is a big odd - seeing Harry as some type of mixed conscience/ reminder of what Harry was in Dexter's life, bringing so many things to the surface. Personally I love seeing Keith Carradine come in and play special Agent Lundy, and i love the way that the BHB case develops. It has its turns and it has its near scrapes, and it has Dexter wondering about everything in his life. If anything, it makes him feel all-the-more real.If you missed Season 1, go back and catch it. If you loved the first Season, rush out and see this without regret. Just bring enough supplies to keep you going through all of the episodes because, like all good things, you won't want to leave the television without knowing what will happen to Dexter and the people that surround him. This is a first-rate program, enjoyable to the core, and warrants more than one viewing just to catch the various killroom set-ups, the plot twists and the hidden pieces, and everything else that season 1 showed us Dexter could be. Recommended highly and then some.

Long live Dexter!
Season two of this Showtime piece of excellence is just as good as the first season, if not better. If you haven't already met Dexter Morgan (played by Michael C. Hall), he's a Miami police forensic expert - he specialises in blood spatter - with a taste for murder all of his own. By twist of tale, Dexter's past comes back to haunt him this season and Dexter the hunter becomes Dexter the hunted. This takes the excitement and suspense up to new heights.Dexter is still coming to terms with the season one's shock ending and initially finds (to his horror) that his killing skills are not what they used to be. And as if he didn't have enough worries, Sergeant Doakes (played by the lovely Erik King), the only one around who senses that Dexter is not all that he seems, is still very much on his case. Add to that the fact that his sister Debra (played by Jennifer Carpenter), who is still recovering from her own trauma from season one, is asked to join the FBI manhunt for him. The team is being led by Special Agent Lundy (played by Keith Carradine) and this is a development, Dexter remarks sardonically, that "makes for an awkward family dynamic".Also very interesting to see this season, is the relationship between just-demoted Lt. Maria Laguerta (played by the brilliant Lauren Velez) and the new Lieutenant parachuted in over her head to take over her shift command, Lt. Esme Pasquale (played by Judith Scott). The cracks in Dexter's seemingly perfect relationship with girlfriend Rita (played by Julie Benz) that began to appear in season one, also begin to get wider this season so look out for Jaime Murray, fresh off her stint on BBC's drama "Hustle", playing the sexy, free-spirited Lila.There's much more but I don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it. Twists and turns abound and each episode seems to bring a new shock for the viewer to take in. The humour is dark but it is hysterically funny - a shock in itself, considering the over-arching subject matter. Unless you're someone who gets squeamish easily (most of the violence is implied rather than shown but there's still violence and there's still plenty of blood) this is a definite must-see. I never thought the day would come when I would be rooting for a serial killer - even a fictional one - but here we are. That I'm doing so is more down to the excellent writing and Hall's easy charm, than to anything else. I'm as happy as Larry to know that there's already a season three on its way and I hope they take this series as far as is logically possible.I say long live Dexter!
