assignment#25 popular culture (dexter)

There is currently a television show that is a bit popular. It is one of my favorite shows and it is very interesting. It is currently on tv but I watch it at my sisters house because her husband bought the seasons. The show is called Dexter.
This series is about a man named Dexter Jackson. By day he is a criminal investigator and by night he is a serial killer. He isn't evil though. He murders murderers. When he receives a case of a homicide and things of that matter he does his job and finds who the murder is, instead of letting his boss know and putting the criminal in jail he takes matters into his own hands. He investigates on what the criminal does and when he can catch him. Once he does he sleeps them with a drug, undresses them and tapes them completely to a table (he covers them with the tape so no inappropriate body parts are seen). When the murder wakes up Dexter speaks to them and makes them feel bad for what they have done. Once the murder shows a bit sign of sympathy (which rarely occurs) he cuts their neck and lets them bleed out. He then chops them into parts and throws the body away. For some reason before he kills them he always makes a small cut on there right cheek.
Dexter has a wife and three kids. The two oldest kids are of his wife and her previous marriage and the baby boy is his and his wife's. He is a crime seen investigator and works along side with his sister. No one knows of his second life as a killer. The reason he kills the murders is because he believes it gives better justice. When he was a baby he witnessed his mother get killed brutally. That traumatizing part of his life has caused him to do what he does. Sometimes his father comes to his thoughts and they have conversations. When he pictures his father he seems to remember things more. His father is dead. Im not sure yet how his father died. So far I have gotten to a part where something tragic has happened and it will live him feeling guilty for a ling time. You can see more of Dexter on their website
