Is Dexter and immorally wrong tv show?

That should be "an".

Is it wrong to root for a guy who gleefully murders and cuts up people into body bads at the end of every episode, even if it is his own "code" and they are "bad people"?

No.

No but I have heard some people who are politically correct aka boring say that they want the show off the air. I disagree, I think its one of the best shows on TV and Michael C. Hall is brilliant as Dexter.

I think it's a pretty cool idea for a storyline, I would get back into it but I've got so many other shows im watching...

If you can't root for a mass-murdering serial killer who slices his victims up into little tiny pieces, who can you root for?

never watched it. Does it have boobs???

Never seen it but I doubt it can be more twisted than reality.

"No but I have heard some people who are politically correct aka boring say that they want the show off the air. I disagree, I think its one of the best shows on TV and Michael C. Hall is brilliant as Dexter."

The only thing people have against Dexter is the fact he is a murderer who gets away with it, it shows the police to be incompitant and it also has some pretty graphic scenes. All of this combined make people hate it. That being said Dexter is a kickass TV show, we need more like it.

I've only seen the cut down CBS episodes, and even then it was only one episode.

It has great acting and an original storyline. I guess it being on CBS is what bother's most people.

I went through this whole thread thinking about the cartoon network cartoon I had never seen <_<

Your avatar just made me think about how there is much worse (yet more hilarious) content on television. Why are people singling out Dexter?"

This show makes him out to be a good guy too much. Even in the second season when they try alittle harder to make him look bad, he's still the guy you are rooting for.

It's no worse than liking The Joker, or the guys in prison break (I don't watch the show, so if they were like framed my apologies.)

No it isn't, and anyone who disagrees is a fucking moron.

no, dexter is the hero we all root for, at least i would think he would be

He's an anti-hero. Even though he does bad things, he's still a likable person with a backstory that stirs sentimentality.

no its like the best show ever other then house :P 

I just finished the first season...I'm hooked!  What a great show.

I don't think it's morally wrong.
I really like Dexter.

He's like The Punisher.
Except he uses tools instead of bullets.

The end does not justify the means?

ummm.....this is soo confusing, who cares if the show is "morally wrong".

Well as long as the people watching act like adults and realize it's only fiction (I imagine it has at least a teen rating). Entertainment, for the most part shouldn't be used to teach morals and ethics or assumed to be. There's always going to be that part of the population who will assume if a show is on that has people murdering, then there will be more murders in real life.

You posing that question is pretty much the purpose of the show itself.  It is supposed to make us question who we root for and how we judge a person's own moral code.

Immorally wrong translates as morally right.

"Immorally wrong translates as morally right."

Immorally wrong is a double negative. 

That's limp. He is a killer and made out as a super cool dude you can root for.

You mean dexter's laboratory? the cartoon?

He is also a bad example for people to follow.

Yes, occasionally.

I like the blond lady who plays his girl-freind, she is very hot I think. However, she is unaware he is killing and cutting up people to fulfill his psychopathic need.

the only thing immoral about that show is the fact that he had his girlfriend dress up like lara croft and gave him a BJ and my gf will probably never do that... unfair!!!

  It's a boring show.

I've seen some episodes, but it seems like it tries to hard to be innovative and it just comes out as a borefest

@GiantKitty
Instead of making your point using confusing sentences, you could've said that when "immorally" is taken as an adjective (which OP did [I think]), "immorally wrong" doesn't translate as "morally right" as I said. It means it's wrong in an immoral way. So you are right; you just made your point a little hard to understand. ^_^

However, I took "immorally" as an adverb; that is why I said "immorally wrong" translates as "morally right".
