Anyone watch this show? its on showtime, if you get that channel its a great show. I just got into it, I'm only in about 3 episodes and I'm hooked. If you can, you should really check this show out, Its really good. I hear they're coming out with it on NBC (i think). I'm bored just wondering if anyone else watched/liked this show.

Not really a fan of the show. They're also going to have to do a ton of "chop chop" to get it not only within the 45 minute timeframe of a network show, but also get it past the censors.

My friend gave me Season 1 on DVD, she highly recommends it... I still haven't started it, though sad.gif

Dexter is an awesome show!!

I love it. I've only seen season 2. I'm hoping Showtime puts season 1 on demand soon while we wait for s3.

Highly recommended!!

Even after the network cuts out the parts that make it such an excellent (if you like it) cable/sattelite show?
Twice
No idea. Haven't seen the cut up version. Is it no longer gonna be on Showtime? That makes me sad if not...

I don't think they're taking it off Showtime, actually. The impression I've gotten is that NBC decided to edit S1 of Dexter (to make it better suited for Network television... which has ruined other shows it happened to) and begin running it.

I think NBC's just getting desperate now that the strike has pretty much guranteed that there will be no completely new shows next season.

Dexter is one of my favorite shows on television (right up there with Heroes). I've seen both seasons in full and can't wait for season 3 to come up. CBS will be airing it not NBC, but I can't see it being as good for many of the reasons you guys have mentioned. With all the gore, cursing, and nudity, there will be a lot of editing needed. However, if you don't get Showtime I still recommend giving the network version a try.

Adrian Pasdar's short lived TV show Profit I guess is airing on Chiller in Feb. It is 8 episodes and worth watching. I don't think shows like Nip/Tuck would have made it with out this show paving the way
catoasapun
Im so excited! Im not sure why, seeing as Ive seen most of it already, but... yays!
jenna4891
me too, maybe cause it is something to actually watch on tv
jenna4891
or maybe seeing Adrian at the end of every episode as such, see Adrian in a box pg 313 Nathan thread wink.gif


edit because we have more pgs than I thought smile.gif
blackdog3428
Aww, man, I don't have chiller. Is this show available on DVD, and if so, is it worth buying? I've never seen it.

Yes to both points. However, you can really only order it online, I've never found it in a store. Its very, very good, though.

before its time, Adrian is such a great sociopath

Think the morality of nip/tuck in corporate america

Aw, c'mon, BD. The cast says that this season has more action and Sawyer's all about looking out for himself again (according to the promos). A friend of mine has been peering in the spoilers and is all excited...

Yeah. Everytime that I watch "American Gladiators" my brother's like "They would never make it on Ninja Warrior"

I forgot to add "Glimore Girls" and "Saved By The Bell". I watch SBTB in the mornings while I'm getting ready for school.

Terminator SCC is a really good show! I was worried they would go and screw up my favorite movie of all time but they managed to do it justice...I was pleased....except the eyeball thing....wtf...that did not make any sense.


I tried watching moonlight but it was too much a rip off of forever knight so i got pissed and stopped.
Twice
Never seen Forever Knight, so it's new to me lol.

Yeah, I didn't get the eyeball thing. I do love the new show though. I love the Terminator trilogy. Sux it wasn't on last night though. Some guy was talking about one of the states of the union or something.

Me too. I watched until they found that den thing and they had to push this button every so often. If someone didn't do it right away, they were like "We're all going to die!"

Then it was just idiotic. I was like "Okay, I'm done with this"

Yeah, they just replayed the pilot last night, but it was awesome, again! When I was a kid the original Terminator movie was my favorite thing in the world and I was totally in love with Kyle Reese! He was my first crush.

Yeah I still remember watching it for the first time. Awesome movie. Still one of the best. I wish we could see another trilogy of the war between AI and humans. Those could be some kick ass movies.

They're making a new Terminator movie set in the future with a grown up John Connor played by Christian Bale and directed by McG (Supernatural). Should be cool, comes out next year I think....I hope Kyle's in it of course it won't be the same actor cuz he's almost 50 now.

NO WAY!! I didn't know that!!

I don't know....I've just been seeing it promoted in all the sci-fi mags and entertainment weekly....I think Christian Bale would be an awesome John Connor.

Yes. I like Christain Bale. I think he is a great actor. It is on IMDB. I wonder if they have a script. If not, it could be longer before it comes out. *sigh*
