Dexter’s Work Is Never Done
Season 3 of Dexter is still months away from debuting here in the US but season 2 of the show is about to launch in other parts of the world. Here are a few examples of some of the guerrilla advertising techniques that are being employed to promote the show in Lisbon, Portugal:
Hahahahaha … I love it! This is such a great way to promote such an awesome show. I wonder if this sort of thing would be possible here in the US. I really feel like we may be so uptight that people might be offended and complain if they found “dead” people lying around on the street … sheesh, go figure. Click HERE to watch a short video of another bit of guerrilla advertising for the show that went down in Portugal. I love Dexter … I think it has to be my fave dramatic program. If you’ve not see the show, I highly recommend that you check it out … it’s effing brills! Bone up now, season 3 debuts on Showtime on September 28!

I agree, Dexter is one of my favorite shows as well. Trent, I think that when season three comes out you should do episode reviews sort of like what you do with LOST and the other shows. I think that would be really awesome :)

it is awesome, and if you had’nt talked about it here on the blog when you watched the first season i wouldn’t know about it! and i agree with Karlie. you doing dexter recaps would be really cool, because i like to hear your p.o.v. i read your other recaps even tho i don’t watch those shows, like the HILLS.

Hi! The first image, the one with the arm in the butchers, is not from FX in Portugal, but from Cuatro channel in Spain.
Here you can find the making-of for this campaign: http://es.youtube.com/watch?v=QNlQn2kVwLQ
