SHOWTIME is celebrating the ten year anniversary of the launch of its groundbreaking original series DEXTER with a fan-focused campaign surrounding the hit drama. DEXTER, which premiered on the network on October 1, 2006, grew its loyal audience year after year in all of its eight seasons, and was the recipient of the prestigious Peabody Award, as well as 25 Emmy® and 10 Golden Globe® Award nominations.
In celebration of #Dexter10, fans will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite DEXTER episodes in a bracket-style competition on SHO.com over the course of four weeks. The top ten fan picks will culminate in an on-air #Dexter10 Fan Marathon on Saturday, October 1st, exactly ten years after the series debuted on SHOWTIME. Watch the new #Dexter10 trailer below:
