Lost Love


It's back in the UK but with a greater lag than before

So I fileshared (from the US) an episode ahead and then had to go back and watch the previous episode.

With all the flash-forwards going on in the series now, this left me badly mind-f***ed...

Serial Chic



So I'm hooked on Dexter - late to the party , I know , given I'm watching it on ITV terrestrial.
But I take back all my designer accusations from before.

Dexter is a kind of superhero. His power is his ability to kill anyone he wants, because he's a sociopath... but only if he can find emotional justification.
Does this make him a faux sociopath?

He's a hybrid between those emotion-free heroes we love exactly becasue they don't feel (R2D2, Mr Spock...) and a traditonal, wide-eyed juve lead.

And the narrative leaves you hungry for the next death. Last night there weren't any...
