Dexter: Dark Passenger

     Dexter is, without a doubt, a very dark and mysterious series featuring a serial killer who specifically targets other serial killers, featuring 96 episodes of pure mischief. As the show follows Dexter Morgan on his expedition in getting justice for the victims, we get to know his coworkers and partners at Miami Metro Homicide. Dexter bounces around between several partners, even having his son, Harrison, with one of them. First look at dexter, you’d think he was a very hollow, emotionless, and nonchalant man with little room for genuine human interaction, but after his son, Harrison is born, he becomes a much more enthusiastic, caring man who wants nothing more than to make his son proud and safe, while also not wanting him to grow up becoming the same monster as his father.

     The main concept of the show follows a strict code established in the beginning, to determine the depth of the act committed to be punished as guilty. The code details that he can only kill someone if they are undeniably guilty of heinous crimes and have evaded the legal system. This causes conflict to rise because Dexter has this sort of urge that he calls his “Dark passenger” that urges him like a mammal's hunting instinct, only he can’t evict someone from society unless they’re compatible with the code. This often leads to conflict because his dark passenger wants to hunt and terminate, but he can’t do any harm unless they’re deemed guilty enough by the code.

     Additionally, we must keep in mind that he is a blood spatter analyst for Miami Metro Homicide and his subordinates such as Sergeant Doakes, who from the beginning is skeptical of Dexter simply because there’s “something off” about him. There are many more cases in the show where people are skeptical of Dexter being “The Bay Harbor Butcher” which causes even more for Dexter to deal with in his own special way. All of this considered, Dexter, is a very action packed and quirky series that is sure to leave the audience entertained.
