Not everyone hated Season 3

I’ve been hard on Dexter’s Season 3. So have many critics who say that Dexter’s attempts to befriend a fellow killer didn’t exactly make for the most stirring of Dexter Morgan’s adventures.

Not everyone, though, agrees. Mary McNamara, a television critic for the LosAngeles Times, listed Dexter — and its third season, specifically — as one of the few bright spots of the recent television season. You can read her column here.

It’s an interesting column mainly because McNamara does a good job highlighting some of the real gems on TV these days. For instance, she cites the compelling In Treatment, Gabriel Byrne’s five-days-a-week therapist drama on HBO. She also counts this season of Lost as that show’s most compelling. I have to agree.

McNamara also shares her thoughts on the worst of TV. That’s fun reading, too. She mentions Grey’s Anatomy, a show I’ve always hated, and Bill O’Reilly. You know O’Reilly’s new book, “A Bold Fresh Piece of Humanity,” has a typo right in the title. It should read “A Bold Fresh Piece of S—”, well, you get the idea, right?
