Default Re: Summer TV Watching

Damn, I think Dexter is awesome. One of the best shows on television right now.

Another good one on Showtime is Brotherhood.

Centers around two adult brothers and their Irish family and takes place in Rhode Island. One brother is involved with the Irish mob and the other is a well respected politician. It's great because of the dynamics. Even though the mob brother is painted as the troubled, bad one. His decisions all follow a code (kind of like Dexter) in that he puts family first and the bad things he does are only to protect and preserve his family. While the politician brother who's painted as the good guy for being a community servant and holding a legit job is actually corrupt. He takes part in bribes and shady deals to preserve his position. He seems well-intentioned but I think he cares more about his job than anything.

Its still up in the air whether a fourth season is going to be made but I hope so. Oh, and one of the brothers is portrayed by the actor who plays Lucius Malfoy in the Potter movies.

But yeah... both these shows are better than Weeds. God, that's an awful show.
