We thought a series would be a good thing to take with us on hols to Barbados. We should be reading more but as that was covered at beach time, we thought something light would be more fun. And series are so great to watch when you can watch more than one episode at once (ie via netflix). We decided on Dexter. Love it. We've seen the first four episodes - very dark but love love love it. If you haven't watched it yet, don't watch it alone - bit scary.

What's it about?
Dexter Morgan, Miami Metro Police Department blood spatter analyst, has a double life. When he's not helping the Homicide division solve murders, he spends his time hunting and killing bad guys who slip through the justice system.

AND, if you haven't got into The Wire - you must!
