De pe wikipedia.
A serial killer is a person who murders three or more people over a period of more than thirty days, with a "cooling off" period between each murder, and whose motivation for killing is largely based on psychological gratification.

Babysitter sau nu, nu caracterul defineste un criminal in serie, ci comportamentul. Dexter are toate elementele unui serial killer, are acel ritual, ataca doar dupa un criteriu (in cazul asta e vorba de alti criminali), simte placere cand ia viata cuiva. Chiar se potriveste si in profilul ucigasului metodic, ca Ted Bundy.

Organized nonsocial offenders usually have above average intelligence, with a mean IQ of 123.They often plan their crimes quite methodically, usually abducting victims, killing them in one place and disposing of them in another. They will often lure the victims with ploys appealing to their sense of sympathy. For example, Ted Bundy would put his arm in a fake plaster cast and ask women to help him carry something to his car, where he would beat them unconscious with a crowbar, and carry them away. Others specifically target prostitutes, who are likely to go voluntarily with a stranger. They maintain a high degree of control over the crime scene, and usually have a solid knowledge of forensic science that enables them to cover their tracks, such as burying the body or weighing it down and sinking it in a river. They follow their crimes in the media carefully and often take pride in their actions, as if it were all a grand project. The organized killer is usually socially adequate, has friends and lovers, and sometimes even a spouse and children. They are the type who, when/if captured, are most likely to be described by acquaintances as kind and unlikely to hurt anyone. Ted Bundy and John Wayne Gacy are examples of organized serial killers.

Am subliniat toate elementele ce sunt mai mult decat clare la personajul Dexter. Era si de asteptat, in show-biz-ul american actual, documentarea a castigat un rol primordial. Eu, dupa ce am vazut toate episoadele, am inteles din cum a fost prezentat ca Dexter nu e un om bun. E un criminal in serie, show-ul nu ascunde nici un moment asta. Ia vieti umane si simte placere cand o face. E ca un drog, uneori intra intr-un fel de sevraj, daca nu ucide. Si iar, a fost foarte clar, ca ceea ce il diferentiaza si il protejeaza, prin comparatie cu alti ucigasi in serie, e acel cod dictat de tat-su.
Nu inteleg de ce atacati show-ul ca ar fi nerealist.
