Season 1 Reviews
Entertainment Weekly
Paul Katz
Provides one of the small screen's most appealing antiheroes.
Los Angeles Times
Paul Brownfield
Ultimately, the show becomes tethered to the unlikely relationship between Dexter and his girlfriend... It's here that "Dexter" rewards your patience, going from somewhat gratuitous psycho-killer riff to fully fledged relationship drama.
Newark Star-Ledger
Alan Sepinwall
Dexter, as superbly played by Hall, is such a compelling character that attempts to beef up the supporting cast with their own subplots just felt like a distraction.
New York Daily News
David Bianculli
Every element expertly draws you into its protagonist's sordid world. The narration, a carryover from the novels, is indispensable and haunting.
The New Yorker
Tad Friend
The linchpin of the show, increasingly, is Dexter's relationship with his girlfriend, Rita... At such moments, the show finds its voice -- not as bleak police procedural but as black comedy.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Adam Sternbergh
Dexter boasts the most mischievous sense of art direction on TV, making giddy Abstract Expressionism out of squirted gore, with bright red splatters Pollocked across the white-walled apartments of Miami.
TIME Magazine
James Poniewozik
The morals of this provocative show are as intriguing as its cases.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Melanie McFarland
The series quickly establishes itself as an elegant study in horror.
New York Times
Alessandra Stanley
It serves as the next step in the relentless escalation of eroticized violence on television, a "CSI" for premium cable.
Boston Globe
Matthew Gilbert
This fiendishly excellent new Showtime series turns blood spatter into a pop art form.
San Francisco Chronicle
Tim Goodman
Dark, creepy but utterly compelling
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
There are reasons not to like Dexter, but thanks to Hall's winning portrayal and the cool, creep-out idea, it's almost impossible not to.
Chicago Tribune
Maureen Ryan
This well-made show is as dark a study of human nature as television is likely to bring us for some time.
Wall Street Journal
Nancy DeWolf Smith
The grotesqueries of "Dexter" are not something that can easily be dismissed.
Variety
Brian Lowry
If brilliant, psychotic lunatics are your bag, by all means, climb aboard.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
A good drama but an average psychological study.
People Magazine
Tom Gliatto
Starts with a juicily sick premise, and Michael C. Hall wrings out every viscous, unwholesome drop from it.
IGN Movies
Dan Iverson
Those out there that enjoy having characters that aren't bad, but aren't totally good either, will completely (and morbidly) love this new Showtime series.
Pajiba
Seth Freilich
Indeed, you should give "Dexter" a shot because it has the potential to be one of the best new shows of the season. It's just not there yet.
The Virginian-Pilot
Larry Bonko
How could you not be repelled by such a sadistic creature? Easy. Dexter's too nice to hate.
