I'm intrigued by the good reviews that Showtime's new show Dexter is getting and you can watch the first episodes streaming online. The show is pretty grisly and is about a police investigator who is also a serial killer, but only kills people who are unredeemable.

I actually watched the first episode of this. It is pretty graphic at times, and really dark, but definitely interesting. The constant voiceovers are a good touch since a lot of it is about this guy who leads a double-life. His girlfriend is someone from the Buffyverse.

You are not sure if you should be rooting for this guy or not, but I think you end up doing so somewhat inadvertently.

Is it so graphic it's going to make me sad? I've been avoiding Nip/Tuck for that reason...

Actually not much actual generation of blood as far as I've seen. But dead bodies and body parts yeah. After all, Dexter's day job is as a forensic scientist, specifically "blood splatter expert."
