Dexter to air on CBS

CBS is bringing cable's favorite serial killer to broadcast TV. Starting Feb. 17, the first season of Showtime's Dexter will air Sundays at 10 on the Eye network. Dexter will become the first pay cable show ever to get a full-season broadcast run on CBS, as the network's supply of scripted programs is being depleted by the WGA strike.

Dexter stars Emmy-nominated Michael C. Hall as a Miami police forensics expert with an uncontrollable urge to kill. The series recently delivered a series-high 1.4 million viewers with its second season finale on the CBS-owned Showtime, which is available in 15 million homes. CBS will edit the 12 episodes of the first season to meet broadcast television content standards.

So, Deb is going to become a mute, basically.

	Buy the DVDs or watch it online if you don't have Showtime, cause this watered-down shit is going to be terrible. The word 'motherfucker' makes this show. :[ (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Also how great is Doakes? He's the funniest on the show. Doakes: Fuck you! Dexter: Okay. Uh, is there something I can... Doakes: Yeah, you can get me your fucking analysis on the blood spatter on these killings! You think I'm here to invite you to my nephew's briss? Dexter: I didn't know you were Jewish! Doakes: Shut the fuck up and write your report already! (Reply to this) (Thread)(Expand)

	It'll be really interesting to see how much they cut out, but hey, anything to bring Dexter to more people. I seriously believe it's one of the best shows of maybe the last few years, aside from Lost, perhaps. (Reply to this)

	That's great it's going to be seen by a general audience, but the editing is going to destroy the flow of the show. (Reply to this)

	i'll still love you dexter even if they edit too much (Reply to this)
