Dexter with Spoilers and Art

[mayalaen]

I really, really love the Showtime series Dexter. I watched the season five premier last night and...

Even though I hated how whiny Rita could be, I liked seeing Dexter deal with her and how she could make him smile even if it was that cute twitch of his lips. You could see that he loved her very much in his own way.

The sounds that Michael C. Hall made when Dexter was on the floor of the restroom after he killed that dude were something I'll probably never forget. I don't know what MCH was thinking of and don't even know if I want to know, but he gave me chills.

I had heard that Julie Benz would be making appearances this season and was kinda disappointed about that, but I actually liked seeing the flashbacks from when she and Dexter met.

I liked John Lithgow's performance so much last year that I didn't want the season to end. I knew the guy could be creepy and liked him even before he signed on for Dexter, but I was even more impressed with his role on Dexter than I already had been with him.

I didn't think they could top season four, but was excited because I've enjoyed everything they've done so far. After last night's episode, I am even more excited about season five.

Other than LitGal's short Dexter fanfic I read awhile back, I haven't found much Dexter fanfic. I am doubtful I could find amazingly good fanfic for it, but I'd still like to be able to find some that is a bit creepy and well-written. I've read some very good fanfic in the past and wish I could persuade some of the writers I've really liked to write in fandoms like Dexter, but I've felt the same way about Boondock Saints, Oz and some others.

And now for something completely different. Having really liked quite a few pieces of well-done fanart, I'm always on the lookout for more. I shouldn't be surprised by this, but it still cracked me up and I felt the need to share. I apologize ahead of time for feeling the need to share.
