Have you ever liked someone and thought that you would do everything to get him/her?

In this series you will witness such character that would go to the extreme ends to get what he loves.

Summary: The series revolves around Joe Goldberg who is a book storekeeper in New York City, who starts to like Beck. He tries to become the perfect boyfriend and also expects her to become her perfect girlfriend, to attain this he does things which only normal people imagine.

In the entire series Joe is having a internal conversation with himself, which feels like Joe is talking with myself/I myself I have become Joe. The best thing I like about this show is the character Joe, while doing bad things he feels like he is doing good things, such type of complex character is what I like the most. There is a psychological tension inside his mind when he is in tough situation(where he has to to take tough decision).Other Character that I Love the most in the show appears in Season 2 of the show Love Quinn, she has similar characteristic to Joe. I never felt bored in the entire show, I hope that you have the same experience.

I liked this series so much because of the Dexter along with other characters; the series gets more and more interesting when new criminals gets involved with Dexter.
