Dexter

DEXTER, the new Showtime original drama series premiering Sunday, October 1 at 10 pm, is a twisted crime drama about a forensics cop who is also a serial killer himself.

The title character, DEXTER, is played by Michael C. Hall (best known for his Emmy-nominated role as "David Fisher" on Six Feet Under ). Dexter is good-natured and charming. By day, he is a blood splatter expert who works closely with the homicide division of the Miami Police Department and fastidiously goes about his business of solving murders. His job is the ultimate cover for his real occupation, that of a serial killer, who was taught to harness his lust for blood and murder into killing those who have escaped justice.

Shot on location in both Miami and Los Angeles , the series captures the unique vibe and scenic vistas of South Florida . Gone are the pink flamingos, neon stucco and pastel suits of yore - this Miami is a character all its own. I hope it's not another version of CSI - Miami.
