I like the voiceovers, and the Dexter, and Julie Benz, and his sister, but somehow, I just don't seem to like the show. I watched about 1/2 of the season, and stopped. I may pick it back later, when I have had time to digest the implications of a do-gooder serial killer.
Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness.
Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

I think it's worth another try, if only because that way you'll get to see the scene with the frying pan. You'll know it when you see it, believe me.

Oh, it's a freakish and totally irrational hatred of voiceovers that is frequently problematic for me. It took me three tries to get through the first season, but I'm looking forward to the next one, now.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I'm with you, -t.
edit: on the voiceover hate-on. I haven't tried Dexter yet.

I'm happy to join you in your corner, just as long as you don't feel some freaky need to narrate in a quirky and knowing way.

If I feel the need for narration, I will break out in song. And try very hard to rhyme.
