For Dexter, life seems to be going well. His relationship with Rita and her kids is back on track. He’s no longer under scrutiny at his day job as a blood spatter analyst for Miami Metro Homicide. And his night job as a serial killer is operating on all cylinders. So when he sets his sights on Freebo, a dope dealer and killer, it looks to be just another night of Dexter’s dark justice. But things don’t go as planned and Dexter must find a way to extract himself from a pair of problems that he created, both in his home and night life. Dexter also finds himself inexorably drawn to Miguel Prado, an Assistant District Attorney, who has a very personal reason to bring Freebo to justice. Meanwhile, Debra is put in a difficult situation when someone from Internal Affairs wants her to inform on her new partner, Quinn

Welcome to the new version of Michael C. Hall Online! To celebrate the third season of Dexter we wanted a new look for the site although we still liked the previous design. We used the totally awesome promo image of Michael from the new season. The layout is best viewed in Firefox 3 (but I hope it will stand up in other browsers) and it was made by yours truly. Naturally all feedback is warmly welcome!

Also, in honor of tomorrow’s premiere we’ve launched our Michael C. Hall forum! You can discuss all things Michael C. Hall, Six Feet Under and Dexter! We look forward to chatting with you all! Check it out at www.dexter-morgan.com.

The video archive has been updated with all the latest videos featuring Michael, including new Dexter promos, Emmy roundtable interviews and an interview from the red carpet of the Emmy Awards. Please click here to view all and check out some of the highlights right below.

Be sure to check out this lengthy and informative interview with Michael C. Hall courtesy of Crave Online.

“Yeah, I feel like a press secretary or something.”

“The Incredible Hulk, for sure and I see parallels between that character and Dexter in terms of you know this undeniable, un-checkable – well, in Dexter’s case maybe it’s checkable – but darkness or compulsion or the Jekyll and Hyde kind of thing. I think as a kid, there were lots of things that I liked but that one I remember pretty vividly. I loved that show.”

“I mean the promo department, the in house people they have at Showtime and the people they hire to do some of the more expansive promo shoots and live action stuff, they’re so good and so imaginative and so really in tune with what I feel the heart of the show is. It’s really nice to step into those studio shoots or promo shoots and feel that you’re stepping into something that really supports and has an appreciation for the nugget of what the show is about.”

Now that we have successfully moved servers, I am going to continue uploading DVD screencaptures of the first season of Dexter. Enjoy screencaps from episodes three to five. Love American Style is actually one of my very favorites.

Can an emotionally stunted serial killer deal with love, intimacy and friendship?

That’s a central theme for the title character of Showtime’s squeamishly graphic drama Dexter, which begins its third season Sunday (9 ET/PT).

Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall), the forensics expert who moonlights as a justice-dispensing serial killer, will still dispatch plenty of bad guys who may deserve a grisly death. But the adopted son of a now-deceased cop will show a more humane side as he develops a friendship with deputy district attorney Miguel Prado (guest star Jimmy Smits) when they’re brought together after the violent death of Prado’s brother.

“The relationship will be the central arc of the season,” says Hall, 37. “It’s sort of the trunk of the tree with many branches. Initially, it sheds light on Dexter’s simultaneous aversion for and attraction to this idea of connection. He’s in unchartered territory.”

Yesterday Rolling Stone and Us Weekly magazines threw a premiere party for the season opening episodes of Dexter and Californication. Michael was, of course, in attendance. He was photographed with lots of cool people like Marie-Louise Parker, Alan Cumming and Mario Cantone. 40 pics have been added in the gallery.

I have added the video, screencaps and HQ stills of Michael’s appearance on the Early Show this morning. It is a short interview but still well worth a look.
