Prioritize:
I reluctantly gave it a weak third star, mostly for the well-executed Berlin ruins. As for the story, I have to admit I didn't quite grasp it yet. The first episode sets a lot in motion: a battle against organized crime in a chaotic city, cultural clashes between East and West, a search for a lost brother, a twisted comic book maniac on a killing spree, all overseen by Dexter Morgan. It's quite a messy start. ()
