TV Program of the Year DEXTER places its hands firmly on the throat of expectation and - minute by minute - tightens its grip until audiences begin to question their idea of morality. Michael C. Hall's masterfully nuanced performance as Dexter breathes humanity into a monster - a killer who murders those he believes have gotten away with murder. The world through Dexter's dark, droll and wickedly funny gaze, in many ways, defines today's era of television - stories that are wildly ambitious, intricately told, and deeply, emotionally engaging. |
| 2007 | Won | AFI Award |
TV Program of the Year DEXTER is a killer show about a serial killer. Wildly audacious and original, the show is an incisive new take on several television staples - the medical mystery, vigilante justice and even romantic comedy - mashed together in the bloody grip of a self-doubting sociopath. Both creepy and compelling, DEXTER is the most morally complex show on television, and with that distinction, a true catalyst for a discussion of ethics around the living room. |
