The Dexter Season 1 DVD collects all 12 episodes of the Showtime drama's first season, which aired from October 1 to December 17, 2006. Michael C. Hall stars as Dexter Morgan, a Miami police blood spatter analyst who secretly hunts killers the justice system has failed to stop.
This is a DVD, so it plays in standard US DVD players and in Blu-ray players, which also read DVDs.
By day, Dexter works as a forensic blood spatter analyst for the fictional Miami Metro Police Department. By night, he is a serial killer who targets only murderers who have slipped through the cracks. His adoptive father, Harry Morgan (James Remar), a police officer, taught him to channel his urges this way.
Season 1 sets Dexter against the "Ice Truck Killer," a murderer who leaves his victims' bodies drained of blood and preserved by cold. Along the way, the season digs into a childhood trauma that Dexter has kept buried.
Around him are his sister Debra (Jennifer Carpenter), his girlfriend Rita Bennett (Julie Benz), and Sgt. James Doakes (Erik King) of Miami Metro. Lauren Vélez plays Lt. María LaGuerta, and David Zayas plays Det. Angel Batista.
Dexter ran for eight seasons and 96 episodes on Showtime, from 2006 to 2013, and the series received a Peabody Award in 2007. Season 1 adapts the opening novel of Jeff Lindsay's book series, so the Dexter Season One set is the natural starting point for new viewers.
Critics responded well from the start; the season holds an 81% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Owning the first season on disc lets you rewatch the Ice Truck Killer case at your own pace, with no streaming subscription needed.

An interesting and unique series about a psychopath who has principles.
Many people have a morbid fascination with the bizarre and unusual when it comes to movie and book choices. It is always a joy to read about characters that refuse to follow the normal societal rules when it comes to dealing with the evils in the world.
A couple of friends who are aware of my interests in revenge type movies (Death Wish, The Mechanic, and Law abiding citizen etc.) and the characters like John Wick, the Punisher, Jonah Hex) kept telling me about the Dexter Show time character who is a thinking psychopath, who only kills those who are guilty but society cannot seem to gather enough evidence to put behind bars.
Once a decision to finally find out what this Dexter series was all about Amazon had a bargain price on the entire first season (12 episodes) of Dexter. I was not that impressed after viewing the first 2 episodes of the 12 episodes, but a strange thing happened after viewing the entire first season of the series. YES, I grew to actually love this psychopath who follows a set of rules given to him by his deceased police officer foster father.
Granted, it is a bloody series and not for the weak of heart; however, it is an interesting and unique series for anyone who is fascinated by the psychopathic personality.
Rating: 5 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: The most effective Combative Systems)
