An Evening With Michael C. Hall And Dexter

Kath got us tickets to Popcorn Taxi's Michael C. Hall evening last night (thanks Kath!) and I thought it was just going to be a standard promo chat about his new show, Dexter. But it was fantastic!

First, the pilot of Dexter, then a great interview with Michael (sidenote: very cute) and the most ridiculous Q&A I've ever heard, then finishing with another episode.

What a truly great actor. Of course, David Fisher being such an amazing character in Six Feet Under. And Dexter, both the show and character, are so good you can't help but be grateful for such beautiful writing and acting and being a beacon in the filth that is everything else on TV these past few years. His voiceovers so accutely reveal the psychology of this complex character, while the sensual delights of food, Miami, heat, music, play beautifully alongside what he would see as the sensuality of the 'projects' that make his heart race. It's a great, great show and we leave before it starts airing here, so I really need to get on the ball and get a copy of the first two series.

It was a fun evening and Michael C. Hall was great. Too bad about all the nutters - THERE IS NO ESCAPE FROM THE NUTTERS!

Thanks for the sushi!
