This series makes for compelling viewing, the turn of events leave you having to watch the next episode. It is far better than the first series and the script is much more dramatic and far less predictable. We begin to see the monster inside Dexter as the series progresses. As a viewer we are toyed with and our sympathies shift to different character as Dexter becomes difficult to root for. His mask slips to reveal the dangerous psychotic coming apart at the seams. I see Dexter as more of a soap opera than a real dramatic serial to be taken seriously, it is not something I imagined myself liking. Dexter has plot holes galore and is greatly overshadowed by truly great and well written series such as The Sopranos, The Wire and Breaking Bad but for simple entertainment is is fun and has a great 'watchability' factor.

I borrowed this second series from a friend and started watching them on Saturday morning. By the evening I had finnished the whole series - I just couldn't tear myself away. In this series, all Daxters earlier handywork surfaces (quite literally) and Miami PD find themselves on the hunt for the Blue Bay Butcher.
For any Dexter fans that saw the first series - all the same cast is in this. Deb (who is trying to come to terms with being the ex-finacee of the ice-truck killer), Angel, Maria, Rita and the children and the fantastic Doakes. James Doakes plays a much bigger part in series 2 as he trails Dexter and becomes more and more suspicious of him.
There is also the introduciton of a major new part in this series in the form of Lila, an English temptress who is his sponsor at counselling (and who has huge issues of her own).
Watching Dexter's world unravle around him as more and more bodies are found and identified and the Police and FBI close in on him is gripping. At the end of each episode I was desperate to know what happened next. If possible, this was even better than series one.

I LOVE this series. With great actors a twisted plot and a sociopath who you can't help but root for, what's not to love?
