2. Season One
The season where it all began. Dexter burst onto our screens in style in season one in what has turned out to be one of the shows finest years. So what was it that got us all hooked in the first season? A lot of it personally was down to the cat and mouse interactions between Dexter and The Ice Truck Killer. The excitement continued to build as the episodes went on and the show hooked in its audience perfectly with some clever writing and excellent plot twists. The season also lacked the one thing that season eight is lacking and that is humour. Remember when Dexters voiceovers were hilarious and when Masuka was actually laugh out loud hilarious? That was part of the reason many people loved the show and its absence has been noted by everyone in the final season.
