So Im watching episode 7 of season 1 last night and they find "the ice truck killer" but dexter nor I am buying it. The dude is in the correct demographics (age/race) but just seems more like a slasher then a surgical serial killer. Anyways they pull the dead body out of the grave near his house and im like "WTF??? maybe he is? just doesnt seem like he would be the one though"
Anyways... so Im watching the rest of the show and then towards the end the prosthetic doctor asks Deb out on a date, and right there red flags started going way up (age/race/job)... Now that is the dude who should be the ice truck killer! I'm like probability of that dude being Ice Truck killer - 60%). Then like two minutes later they are on their date and she asks how he got into his work and he says something like "Well my mom lost her legs in an accident and i've been trying to put the pieces back together ever since" DING DING DING.... Hello??? probability of Ice Truck Killer 95%! They should change his name to the humpty dumpty killer.
However I'm still puzzled about all the evidence they uncovered at the guy they arrested place. The pictures? The dead body with the cut off leg? Is he just a one of those people who like to admit to crimes they didnt do? (forgot the term for that). But what about the girl he had tied up in the room?
Anyways... then the end of the show Dexter meets with that dude and he says "Who the fuck are you" which makes it obvious that he isnt the ice truck killer and the prosthetic doctor is 100% ice truck killer. I'll be shocked if he isnt. But I just dont know how they are going to explain away all the evidence against that dude? Plus I think he even admitted to the stuff?

I'm trying too Each episode is like 50 something minutes though so watching two episodes is like watching a long movie. There is only 5 more left... Probably be done by monday.
Really though.... I'm pretty sold on the prosthetic doctor being the ice truck killer. There isnt much they could do to surprise me at this point... It would be an interesting twist if the doctor was like a childhood friend of dexter, or a biological cousin/brother.... Im pretty sure I have it figured out, now just a matter of watching it all play out
Oh... I guess I might be a little surprised if the black cop (James) right? is the killer. I keep thinking it might be him because it would be unlikely.

The thing that bugs me about James is he is the only one that is "watching" dexter because he knows something is shady about him. And Dexter said that he can usually just sense when there is another killer near by... like he can recognize his own kind. So is James also just recognizing his own kind? Nothing about him fits any profile so that character bothers me. I really dont think he is the ice truck killer (im just sold on the dr being the ITK), however I have a suspicion that he might also be a serial killer in future seasons. Right now there is nothing about his character that leads me to think this other then 1. he is smart 2. he is senses something is off with dexter.
My favorite season was season 3 with Miguel or season 4 with Trinity. I liked all of the seasons, except for the 5th. I felt that one was pretty stale and predictable. Season 6 is shaping up real good, but there's probably only three episodes left after this week.

So I finished Season 1. Im surprised they dont try and keep the killer a mystery more then they do. Like the Ice Truck Killer was introduced in Episode 7 and by episode 8 maybe 9 you'd have to be a moron to not know who the actual killer was. It wasnt until episode 12 that you learn he was also his brother... not sure if that was supposed to be the big surprise or also just expected. Great first season though... I :x Dexter
I kinda wish he has just killed Deb, and been cool with his bro.
The only problem I have is what about the part where "Gellar" bashed Travis with a shovel. Does that mean he just imagined it and then snapped into Gellar mode?

So Im half way through Season 2. He just got back from taking a trip to confront one of the killers of his mom.
Anyways... this season I am still even more suspicious of Doakes. He's killed two people like it was nothing, and the heat he is bring on Dexter is going to need to be dealt with. Not sure if he is a serial killer that needs to be disappear... My bet is his character will start being a more central part of the plot.
Also... Love the Lila character. She is hot, and I really dont think she would have a problem if Dexter told her he was a serial killer. When Dexter got back to the hotel after almost killing the dude who killed his mom, and Lila confided in him that she 'accidentally' killed her bf because she was so strung out on drugs and didnt know he was in the house when she burnt it on purpose. And Dexter was like "did he deserve it" and she says "yes" and then you are left to think that Dexter will think that is okay and give her a pass.... Im not sold on her admitted innocence in that murder. Would not be surprised if there were other similar "accidents" of ex-bfs. And my guess is she will end up being the second person Dexter has to kill but doesnt want to. He finally finds someone who understands him and accepts the monster he is, but his morals will force him to kill her for her crimes. anyways, that's what im thinking \m/
