Guess I'm the only one posting here now, but HEY! - just watched the first episode of DEXTER on DVD and OMG, I knew Michael C. Hall was going to be perfect for the role, but sometimes the imagination just doesn't do justice (between line readings and facial expressions and such).

Also impressed with Julie Benz. If I hand't known it was her, the only thing that would have pinged me was the voice, and I'm not sure that would have done it. She does damaged as well as she did damaging, at least from the little I've seen so far.

The others seem well cast, though the only one who really pings me is the guy playing Angel (heh), but mainly because I know I've seen the actor in other things...oh wait, I think it was Oz. That makes it even better.

Okay I just walked by a flyer posted in my neighborhood announcing McNulty's moving out sale. Anybody need anything? Angst? Booze? Bad Attitude?

Always Anti-fascist!

Just don't take any driving instructions. He can't help it, though. He's addicted to himself. Even my mom thinks it's hilarious he got laid cause he went to Parents' Night. Apparently when she got screwed at Parents' Night it never worked out so literally.

Hah! Actually, he's selling baby gear and, like, a DVD player. Proceeds to charity.

I thought he was a good actor before watching Dexter, but I didn't know he was that good.

I know. He sinks into Dexter so thoroughly, if I knew him in real life I'd worry just a little.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yep, he was Morales on Oz. I loved him there and I love him here, too. You may recognize LaGuerta as Gloria from Oz, and you may recognize Doakes as Moses from Oz.

I have not seen Six Feet Under, so Dexter Morgan is all I know of Michael C. Hall. And, yes, he is awesome. There's something nice about not having seen him in anything before, so all I could see was Dexter. Of course, he made it easy by, you know, totally being Dexter. I'm going to rewatch the first season before the next one starts.
