Dexter works with good people in his division; and interestingly, with his adoptive sister. Dexter's adoptive dad was a police officer also, and he taught Dexter many, many things. Dexter was adopted at 3 by his police officer dad after he was found in a cargo container after 3 days of his mother's murder. Here's the sick part: His mother was chainsawed in the container Dexter sat in for 3 days. Dexter, as a 3 year old, sat in that container with 3 inches of his mother's blood. And consequently, Dexter is a raging serial killer that works as a police officer. But he only kills people that deserve it.
The best part of the show is that you'll really like Dexter and sympathize with him and his problems. I mean, this guy is a serial killer, but you can't blame him. It's crazy! The show is narrated by Dexter and as a result, can be pretty funny. But this crime-drama's at its best when Dexter has some pedophile hanging upside down trying to talk him out of cutting him while in the back of his mind, he is trying to figure out how to get out of the bigger messes he is getting into. It's brilliant.
(Note: This show is highly graphic. It is bloody and twisted. It will cause you to have some pretty weird and twisted dreams. There are some explicit sex scene, as well. Try watching the introduction to the show on Youtube or something, and see if it makes you squezzy or not. The introduction is a pretty good representation of what the show will kind of be like.)
