Re: Dexter 11/11
[ QUOTE ]
In the first season, Dexter was amoral, but ethical. This season, as he tries to become a better person (thanks largely to Lila's influence), he's becoming more moral, but less ethical. The first step in this evolution was his handling of Rita's boyfriend (which occurred before this season, but whatever). More recently, his developing manipulation of Doakes, who is a mirror image of Dexter - as morally rigid as Dexter is ethically rigid, and as ethically flexible as Dexter is morally flexible, is telling.
Dexter is becoming less likeable, in other words, because he is becoming more moral, and less ethical.
Does anyone else feel the same?
[/ QUOTE ] Im not sure what all this means, but yes im liking dexter a little less, although more of the way the show is going than his actual character I think. They seem to have gotten away from the finding bad people, stalking/investigating them to make sure theyre evil and then kidnapping and killing them. His attitude definitely seems to be changing but people change over time so I guess its natural. The show still owns though.
