So what do you all think about it? I hear people always saying it's a great series. I'm currently watching the first episode. I'm wondering if I'll enjoy it. I'm not into TV shows like these, so if it's anything like Shield I probably wont watch it.
15 minutes and I don't have a real opinion about it yet. I got to say though, the actor that plays Dexter? Creeps me the fuck out. Maybe it's because I already "know" that he's a serial killer that kills serial killers, but when I see him, and the way he interacts, it creeps me out.
I've learned how to read people pretty well, not as well as the Mentalist, or Gibbs from NCIS, or Batman, but I do know when someone's full of shit. His mannerisms contradict each other, and his eyes say something else. Now because of this the Actor is freaking amazing at portraying this character, but the character itself is telling me he's full of shit. I don't think I would trust someone like this by the way he interacts with everyone.
I don't know, overthinking it I guess. I'm still watching though, but ya, tell me what you all think?
EDIT: Hah, someone actually thinks he's fucking nuts. Seriously? Only 1 cop in the whole entire department?

Yeah, that one cop thinks he's nuts lol.
Series is amazing, the character is supposed to creep the fuck out of you. At the very start he tells you that he doesn't know how to behave, he has no feelings. Any and every interaction is him acting, any sort of empathy or sympathy is fake and just a tool so he could fit in with everyone.
Ya I get that, I'm just shocked no one else sees this guy is nuts. I mean hell Angel thinks he's his best buddy and he barely really talks to the guy. No matter how good you are at faking you tend to pick up things. An uneasiness, a misdirection feeling, something. Hell they are all cops shouldn't they all have that instinct? Hell the LT wants to fuck him lol.
Anyways I guess that's my only beef with it, but hey if everyone was suspicious of him then, well it wouldn't a show. I'm actually enjoying it. Episode 7 right now.
It's pretty good. Dex gets a lot better as it goes on and people settle even more into their roles. Once you start watching the show more, it becomes clear exactly why they don't really mind that he's a bit odd.
