Dexter

I just watched another episode of Dexter, the TV series about a serial killer who works as a blood spatter analyst and only kills bad guys. The series is very well done. The setting is Miami so there is a lot of cuban/spanish cultural influence. Nice scenery and interesting music.

I really like watching these episodes on my laptop. You get HD and with headphones the sound is perfect.



The first series I ever watched like this was Alias with Jennifer Gardner. That was great too. All the changes of location. Well done intrigue. The nice thing though, beyond what I've mentioned, is no commercials. If you want a break hit pause. Watch one episode, two or go for an Alias marathon. I didn't do it.hehe You can get these DVDs free at the library. I've also watched the Sopranos...Great. If you've never tried this it's a wonderful form of entertainment. Also, all the episodes are there it's hard with our busy work and social schedules to catch all of the episodes of our favorite programs.


I would also recommend the English series Midsommer Murders. These follow police investigations in Midsommer County where there are many murders and much mischief also.

The homes are very old but well kept and the gardens and scenery are worth the watching. Many times I fall asleep in the middle of these but still enjoy them. What am I turning into?



I don't do it, but if you can't sleep at night you could watch a show or a movie without disturbing your life-partner. Just be sure to have the laptop on a hard surface so it doesn't over heat.



It's amazing to think that when I was 10 years old we only had radio and a wind-up Victrola(device for playing records). The Victrola used no electricity. Think it will make a come-back?



The Ipad comes out Saturday.
