[HASH]Showtime [HASH]Dexter
Dexter Morgan (born Dexter Moser) is a fictional character and the antihero of a series of novels by Jeff Lindsay, including Darkly Dreaming Dexter (2004), Dearly Devoted Dexter (2005), Dexter in the Dark (2007), Dexter by Design (2009), Dexter Is Delicious (2010) and Double Dexter (2011).
In 2006, the first novel was adapted into the Showtime TV series Dexter and its companion web series Dexter: Early Cuts.
A seventh novel written by Jeff Lindsay entitled Dexter's Final Cut is expected for release in September 2013.
In both the novels and the TV series, Dexter is a forensic blood spatter analyst who works for the fictitious Miami-Metro Police Department.
In his spare time, he is a vigilante who channels his urge to kill onto other murderers.
He follows a code of ethics taught to him in childhood by his adoptive father, Harry Morgan (which he refers to as "The Code" or "The Code of Harry"), which hinges on two principles: Dexter can only kill people after finding conclusive evidence that they are guilty of murder, and he must dispose of all evidence so he doesn't get caught.
The program's first season was largely based on the first novel, Darkly Dreaming Dexter, but the following seasons veered away from the rest of the book series.
In the television program, Dexter is played by Michael C. Hall.
He won a Golden Globe Award in 2009 for Best Actor in a Television Series or Drama for his portrayal of Dexter Morgan in the fourth season.
