The Year of Dexter: Dexter 307 (Easy as Pie); 308 (The Damage a Man Can Do); 309 (About Last Night)

Sunday Show: They Keep "Raiding Entebbe"!
Yes - don't write! It is Menahem Golan not Menahem Golum (Freudian slip). Dan was right, it is Yonatan or "Yoni". Sheila is having a hard time with all of…
- Profiling Criminal Minds
The Year of Dexter: Dexter 204 (See Through); 205 (The Dark Defender); 206 (Dex, Lies and Videotape)

The Year of Dexter: Dexter 201 (It's Alive!); 202 (Waiting to Exhale); 203 (An Inconvenient Lie)
Impressed with the portrayal of PTSD and Rita's handling of Dexter's addiction problem. Doakes is on the trail!

Still impressed by Dexter - much to our surprise!
