Removed from a case for political reasons, Debra Morgan acknowledge her newly promoted boss in the lift as “Asshole” then she quickly apologies and corrects herself to “Sergeant Asshole”.
How crisp … How expressive … How appropriate …
And guess what!! it gets better because she is not even the serial killer of the family ..
The series that I am almost in love with is called “Dexter”. It’s about a daytime forensic expert, actually a blood splatter pattern expert who is a serial killer by night. The series depicts beautifully this unusual person with unusual life proceedings, faking to be normal. Debra Morgan is his foul-mouthed cop sister.
From a highly imaginative the title sequence where they depict violence in normal morning chores, to the drama that unfolds with help of very unambiguous dialogues and situations, to the tortuous commentary on life ..almost everything about the serial is thought provoking . Most of the dialogues can be used as quotable quotes because they are nothing but a tangential expression to the wisdom of life.
You will identify with the serial killer and want to have communication skills as effective as his sister. Here the Morgan’s are not only the cool ones. There are many well sketched characters for drama that tingle and tackle your sensibilities…
…And just when I thought I was over the age when I could be so smitten by a TV show...
