Welcome to the TV.com Forums for Jennifer Carpenter. Here is your area to discuss, dissect and debate all things about this person.
Dexter Morgan remains one of television's greatest (and twisted) superheroes. But this season is like if Superman just sort of stopped flying and also lost the occasional fistfight to a hobo.
Plus: NBC is putting a LOT of money into development, Cougar Town will host a Scrubs reunion, and Matt Smith will remain a Doctor.
The countdown to Halloween has begun. Will YOU survive the horror movie ONSLAUGHT?
ABC's comedy nabs seven major nominations, Game of Thrones is up for Best Drama, and Louis C.K. sneaks in, too.

Jennifer Carpenter enjoys both a wonderfully funny and sad part on the series. Her character is part little girl and part woman. My boyfriend and I can't stop laughing at some of the lines she has, potty mouth and all. We just finished a marathon weekend of watching the entire first and second season (don't get Showtime on DISH) and are now on to the third. Riveting series overall. Totally addicting. Can't wait to see if Deb and Frank hook back up in Season 3. Hope the show doesn't send Jennifer's character away with Frank though - we love her.
i dont like her looks, shes too skinny with an overall muscular weakness that makes her unable to walk straight. her back aint straight and her shoulders bend to the front makin her look abit hunchbacked. i wouldnt hug her in fright of having my eyes poked out. its quite funny you see her work out all the time in season 2 in Dexter. the love hungry sister role she plays in dexter makes her seem so desperate, running after men twice her age blindfolded, makin me dislike her role even more. final advice, get rid of that hunchback missy
I'm tired of the negative attitude people seem to have towards her. She is a very talented actress and, in my opinion, she is very underrated. I think most people only know her as Deb Morgan on Dexter and they seem to confuse her character for her. They even attack her personally. If people would take the time to check out her other work, for example Beyond the Ashes, they will see that she is a very capable actress who is able to give a very profound performance. She has a great range. She can go from indieflicks to horror flicks to a very awesome TV series. I would also love to go to America and watch her do play someday.
A bueatiful person who did a good job in the Emily Rose movie. She is a good actress wit a good body. At first I thought that in Emily Rose is she did that she did all that contortinist stuff but she didnt. She did everything else. And atleast shes in something recent, "My Name Is Earl". And I dont watch that show.
