HOLLYWOOD, CALIF. – Revisit one of television’s most critically acclaimed series in its darkly intoxicating sophomore season, when DEXTER: THE COMPLETE SECOND SEASON arrives as a four disc DVD set August 19 from Showtime, CBS Home Entertainment and Paramount Home Entertainment.
Anchored by an intelligent, quirky and eerily subversive performance by Emmy®* and Golden Globe®** nominee Michael C. Hall as Dexter Morgan, DEXTER tells the story of a man who leads a thrilling and horrific double life as both an incredibly likable forensics expert for the Miami Police Department and an emotionless vigilante serial killer living by his own strict moral code – he only kills murderers who can’t otherwise be brought to justice. DEXTER is based on the compelling novel Darkly Dreaming Dexter and featuresa stellar ensemble cast that includes Jennifer Carpenter (“The Exorcism of Emily Rose”), Julie Benz (“Angel”), Erik King (“Ice Princess”), Lauren Vélez (“Numb3rs”) and David Zayas (“Law & Order”).
The second season of DEXTER was bookended by a premiere that marked the first time that a SHOWTIME season premiere scored more than one million viewers, and a finale that averaged 1.4 million viewers, the largest ever for an original SHOWTIME broadcast.

Hall, and can stream the first two Episodes of THE TUDORS SEASON 2 and the first two Season One episodes of the Golden Globe nominated Showtime series CALIFORNICATION starring Golden Globe winner David Duchovny.
