for Rita Bennett in Darkly Dreaming Dexter
Suggested by user_16954

Meet Dexter Morgan, a polite wolf in sheep's clothing. He's handsome and charming, but something in his past has made him abide by a set of different rules. He's a serial killer whose one golden rule makes him immensely likeable: he only kills bad people. And his job as a blood spatter expert for the Miami police department puts him in the perfect position to idenitify his victims. But when a series of brutal murders bearing a striking similarity to his own style start turning up, Dexter is caught in between being flattered and being frightened------ of himself or some other fiend. This will be a remake of the show that'll closer to the books. Some of the actors can stay the same, others can be different. Astor and Cody will be aged up: instead of them being kids, they'll stay as teenagers and hopefully grow and learn throughout the series.
