Loved him in Cabaret. Loved him in Six Feet Under even more. But Michael C. Hall became an acting God to me with the character of Dexter. So many layers of emotion (some would say there was no emotion) and depth of character development. Michael can do no wrong on the Stage or Screen!!!

[@tarintal-el9235]

Debra Dunn Wow I literally feel the same

[@arianapadilla9351]

"get out of here you little fuck" "that's great"

he's such an amazing actor. I love watching him as the photographer is reading the card. You can see him transforming into the character. He's brilliant.

[@wallowinthehallows]

He is too talented, and hilarious. Love him!

[@susiesmith2941]

michael c hall is such a great actor, I think one of the best today!

[@jelliebee_e]

It's crazy how well this man can act. After I finished Dexter and started Six Feet Under, I thought I would only be able to see him as Dexter because that's how I was introduced to him, and I went on an 8 season journey with Dexter Morgan (I was lost after finishing Dexter). But his character in Six Feet Under is SO different, it's like it's a completely different person. At no point do I ever think of Dexter when I'm watching his performance as David (-semi spoiler- besides that one time he threatened Gilardi). Is Michael C. Hall even real?

[@ghostfields]

Six feet under was filmed before Dexter though

[@jelliebee_e]

+ghost fields I know, what I'm saying though is _I_ started watching Six Feet Under after Dexter (I need my fix of Michael C. Hall).

Michael C. Hall has to be my favorite actor. I've seen him in Dexter and a different movie. It kind of motivated me, it wasn't exactly my first acting performance but those were just school stuff. I tried out for the college's one acts, all directed by students, and I was the last one on. Mind you, I had never considered myself an "artsy type". But the kid said, "we fought over you", and I had a lot of fun doing it. It's kind of helped me, talk to people, having autism.

Michael C. Hall IS the best actor alive right now. Theres no doubt about it. It says alot that he hasn't really done to much tv and/or movie acting, before Six Feet Under he was primarily a musical actor. He is amazing!

Michael has the most mesmerizing voice. 💖

It is so hard for me to believe that Dexter and David Fisher were played by the same person. With David and Dexter, he submerged himself into these two completely different people to the point where I don't even see the actor- I see the character. Such a talented performer. I can't believe he hasn't won an Emmy for either of those characters.
