Dexter is not a good guy...he is a serial killer with an irresistible urge to kill. True, he has a code -"The Code of Harry", but adhering to it only channels his murderous obsession in a way that happens to benefit (for the most part) society as a whole. The show is really more or less a Drama/Dark Comedy and is extremely well-written. Some of the story arcs are so unbelievably outrageous, but so cleverly scripted and acted that they are believable. Dexter is not a good guy, but I watch the show because it is highly entertaining and compelling, not because I view Dexter as a hero...

still I find myself rooting for him.
lol what you said got me thinkin whats wrong with watchin a show about a bad guy lol seem A-okay with me the show sounds entertaining enough what channel and when

It's a Showtime channel series, I'm not sure when it airs, I get it off of itunes.

I've seen the show. I generally don't pass judgment on things I haven't experienced in some way, so don't worry in that regard. It just wasn't my cup of tea. If you dug it though, more power to ya.

No, superheroes bring villains to justice. They don't kill them. That's what anti-heroes such as the Punisher do. Call me an idealist, but good guys aren't supposed to kill in my opinion.

I agree a hero is someone the people should be able to look up to ,people would fear not love a ''hero'' that is killing anyone in their way .There are certain standards a true hero should live up to that make the people feel safe ,and someone who claims to be a hero yet is no better than the ''villians'' they take out does not instill that sense of confidence and security that a true hero would ......LOL I say it as if super heroes are real (well that ruins my dramatic speech )
see dexter lives by a code though just like most heroes he follows it to a tee
yeah he kills killers but hes very strict about who he does kill you guys should watch the show before making judgements it really is amazing

Yes But This Still Runs True To The Long Running debate on Vigilantisim. Like The Punisher He Will Kill " Evil / Lawbrakers / Criminals " Which In Turn Makes Him A "Criminal in the eyes of the law /And Anti Hero to people " Because He Did it In the Name Of Justice Or Presonal Justice . But If A Chracter Like the Joker Kills 5 Cops because They where trying to Arrest Him(bring hin to justice hes A Killer . Bottom Line no one is Above the Law - Murder is Murder .
Sometimes we would like there to be A Hero that Could Apprehend Criminals W/out hurting them. But there are times where there Is necessity for Evil On Evil . But 2 Wrongs Don't Make A Right .
So The Debate Continues .
Dexter & the Punisher , Boondock Saints - Anti Heroes - Necessary Evil .

Also Fun To Read & Watch In My Opinion! Dexter & the Punisher, Boondock Saints Rock !

He kills people with no remorse. That doesn't scream "good guy" to me. To me a good guy is someone like Spider-Man or Captain America or Superman.

how in heck did you not like dexter
plus if you watch it you will relize that he isnt' really evil at all but harry (his father) raised him trained him brainwashed him into belive he was a socicailpath. you will learn this because of the way he has feeling and emotions that he doesn't have to fake they just come
and if he really was a psycho then that wouldn't happen

Wow, I didn't realize there was one. I've been thinking about doing a Dexter custom for some time now...



Well, you probably have to be kind of demented like me to appreciate it. My theory is that everyone has an evil streak...some just have it in spades.

A serial killer who's supposed to be a good guy? That doesn't play to my definition of what a good guy should be. I didn't like Dexter.
