Series Review – Dexter I started watching Dexter just to improve my English, because it is a long series and I thought that would be nice to get used with the accent of each character. I decided to watch the episodes with English subtitles, so I would be able to perceive each word. The series shows the life of the character Dexter, a psychopath who works for Miami Metro Homicide as a forensic analyst. Dexter knows how to not be caught because his experience as a forensic and because his father was a police officer, then he was familiar with the methods used by the police to catch assassins. During the episodes, the authors try to humanize Dexter, bringing the fact that he had a dark background and did not know how to live a normal life. Even if he try to get a normal life, it seems to be an impossible task, because every time he meet someone he brings sadness or even death to the person’s life. Many people criticized the final season of the series, but I do not agree with them. In general, I liked the series. I did not use to like these “CSI” stuff, but Dexter surprised me in a good way.

Dexter knows how to not be avoid being caught (for murder) because of due to his experience as a forensic analyst and because his father was a police officer, then so he was is familiar with the methods used by the police to catch assassins murderers.
During the episodes, the authors writers try to humanize Dexter, bringing the fact by showing (that) he had a dark background (childhood?) and that did not he doesn't know how to live a normal life. Even if he try tries to get a normal life, it seems to be an impossible task, because as every time he meets someone he brings sadness or even death to the person’s their life.

** maybe you mean this.. because it is a long series and so I thought it would give me a chance to get used to the accent of each character.

Also, the phrase is 'To get used to (something)'
