Dexter's got it all: murder, mystery, mayhem, even romance and humor. My excitement barometer has started to rise, what with the hype surrounding the new season, premiering on September 28 on Showtime.

Man, I wish the creators of Dexter could package and sell their formula, although I'd be a very busy woman if all shows were this good. In fact, a show this good rarely comes around, with top-notch writing and incredible acting talent coming together.

Speaking of which, Hispanic Business has a quality interview up with the actor who plays Angel Batista on Dexter, David Zayas.

Does he tease us with any Dexter spoilers? Not so much, but he does let us know that Angel will have more responsibility with the police this season. One of the most interesting things I learned, though, is that Zayas was a real-life cop before he became an actor.

I like that this interview is a well-rounded one; it's got lots of insightful questions, and it focuses on Zayas as a person, not as a "star." I feel I really got to know him by reading this interview. Zayas seems the kind of guy I'd like to invite to dinner.

If you are a fan of Zayas in Dexter, and his other work in Oz and on the big screen, read about the man behind the actor and his down-to-earth ways.
