Dexter – S.3.Ep.1 – “Our Father”

I’d say Dexter is pretty easily one of my favorite shows on tv.  It may even get the top spot.  If you’re a fan already, you’ve probably followed both seasons so far and know exactly what I’m saying.  If you haven’t had the chance to see it, or thought it looked dumb because it’s about a serial killer killing serial killers, well, I just hope you give it a chance someday.  I love the writing.  It makes me nervous as hell every time I watch it since he’s usually working on the very murders he committed while the police chief is staring down his neck suspiciously wondering why this blood anyalist for the case seem to always oddly know more than he should about the cases.  But the last two seasons have been some of my favorite tv I’ve watched in a long time, and after just watching this newest episode, I can safely say this new season is going to be right up there with the others.  So glad it’s back on!

Summary:
“For Dexter, life seems to be going well. His relationship with Rita and her kids is back on track. He’s no longer under scrutiny at his day job as a blood spatter analyst for Miami Metro Homicide. And his night job as a serial killer is operating on all cylinders. So when he sets his sights on Freebo, a dope dealer and killer, it looks to be just another night of Dexter’s dark justice. But things don’t go as planned and Dexter must find a way to extract himself from a pair of problems that he created, both in his home and night life. Dexter also finds himself inexorably drawn to Miguel Prado, an Assistant District Attorney, who has a very personal reason to bring Freebo to justice. Meanwhile, Debra is put in a difficult situation when someone from Internal Affairs wants her to inform on her new partner, Quinn.”
