They really did. They took one of the cleverest novels of the past 10 years, and turned it into a plot-holey, bastardized mess.


There never was an image here, what the fuck are you talking about?

I never read the book, but I enjoy the series. Perhaps if I read the book my opinion will change. Is the title of the book just "Dexter"?

Darkly Dreaming Dexter is the first, Dearly Devoted Dexter is the second.

When I first saw the subject line I thought it was going to be a thread about Dexter's Laboratory. Surprised Embarrassed

He actually teamed up with TWO other Dexters in that, a super old Dexter and a roided out 30ish Dexter with a giant wrench.

It kinda sucked after that change, though. On the other hand, I liked Johnny Bravo after they reformatted that, so, win some lose some I guess.

They reformatted Johnny Bravo too? Hmph, I probably would have found out if they hadn't stopped showing the reruns of the show.

I always loved Johnny Bravo.

I liked all the ridiculous guest stars that they had on that show (Donny Osmond, Don Knotts etc).

Donny Osmond wasn't a guest star, he was basically a character on the show.

On a side note: Mmmm. . .sammmichey.

I don't give a shit that you're talking about Dexter's Lab and Johnny Bravo is this thread, because Dexter sucked ass.

I'll make another thread to hopefully remove the derailment of this one.

Dexter's Lab was badass. If he's so clever how come he makes it so fucking easy (and tempting) to break his shit.

He's like 10 fucking years old. Everything was probably made out of tinfoil.
