channel 2: Dexter Morgan, America's Favorite Serial Killer

I recently finished watching every episode of the Showtime thriller Dexter that is offered on Netflix and OH BOY LET ME TELL YOU.


Ok, so here's the basic scoop without the spoilers. Dexter Morgan is a serial killer that only kills multi-homicidal people, so basically other serial killers. He works as a blood spatter analyst for the Miami Police Homicide Division, and he leads a rather normal life despite his need to kill people. The show follows him through his own self discovery as he changes and as he solves cases surrounding big time serial killers. Practically every season Dexter is almost caught doing his serial killer thing, but thanks to a strange series of events, he manages to get away with it.

Not only is Dexter Morgan a fascinating character to follow and try to rationalize, the characters around him are just as fascinating, mostly because HOW DO THEY NOT KNOW HE KILLS PEOPLE?

I warn you now though; you may not like the show at first, but the more you watch it the more emotionally invested you become. I still have four more seasons to wait on, get it together Netflix!!

Stay tuned for more!

this is not a fan page

As this post title dictates this is not a fan page. It is not dedicated to a "fandom", I do not "ship" but I am a total fangirl of like a butt ton of fandoms hahahaha and I do not consider myself to be a "fangirl". I'm not dissing those that fall under these categories, you all are fantastic and hilarious people. I'm just not exactly that kind of a blogger. Yes, I will most likely go into ranting and raving posts about certain TV shows, books and movies that I love but I just want to clarify that this blog is open to all kinds of media that I find intriguing, worth the time and well basically it'll be something just stuck in my mind.

And my very first personal-opinion-blurb (gotta think of a good little nick-name for that...) is about...drum roll........Supernatural!



Okies, so I'm a very new viewer to this show since I just discovered it on Netflix but I have heard all kinds of glorious things about it from friends. And I must admit I do think it is a fantastic show. BUT, when I watched the first episode I was a little freaked out. I'm not a huge fan of supernatural/horror related stuff. Don't get me wrong, I love a good horror movie every now and then, but by every now and then I mean once a year at Halloween. But this show has made me actually like horror and sci-fi type stuff. I'm only a few episodes in but already the overarching plot line is fantastic and intriguing, the sub-plots that make up the individual episodes are equally awesome, and then the demons and spirits that are in the episodes are scary but also each one has a unique kind of back story as to why they do what they do.

And, I'll admit, I am totally smitten with Mr. Dean Winchester. Yes, Sam is adorable and a sweetheart but I am completely drawn into Dean's humorous and tortured personality. I am no where NEAR being done watching every single episode, but when I do, you can expect another personal-opinion-blurb from me!

Stay tuned!
