Two more Dexter – comin’ right up!

I really enjoyed the show “Six Feet Under“, at least the first three seasons. The one actor that really stood out was Michael C. Hall. When I first heard about the show  “Dexter,” and the fact that Michael was starring as Dexter Morgan, it was obvious this was going to be huge. And now… I bring you good news! Well, to be honest it’s The Hollywood Reporter that brings the news – I just pass it on to all of you…

“Dexter” fans – rejoice! One of the best shows on TV right has been renewed. Showtime has ordered two more seasons of the top-rated drama. We are talking 12 episodes each for seasons 4 and 5, with the fourth season set to go into production in the spring in Los Angeles.

All of you living in a cave, deep in the woods, here’s a quick explanation to “Dexter”: During the day, Dexter Morgan is a jovial employee in the Miami Metropolitan Police Department’s crime lab, but his meticulously crafted life masks his true nature. In reality Dexter is a disciplined and murderous psychopath, and he slakes his blood lust at night by carefully killing the serial killers he tracks down during the day.

Showtime president Robert Greenblatt credited the cast, producing team and Jeff Lindsay, author of the books on which “Dexter” is based, for the show’s success.

“I thought at best we would attract a devoted cult audience but soon realized that, ironically, this show is so thematically rich and layered with humanity that audiences of all kinds have flocked to it,” he said.

Days like this… It’s good to be alive!
