Dexter and Debra got married!

Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter tied the knot on New Year’s Eve.

I thought I was pretty good at noticing chemistry between actors, but I had no clue about these two. Pretty cool. :slight_smile:

(They play brother and sister on Showtime’s Dexter).

oh goodness gracious!!!

that…that… is quite something…

may they have many happy and healthy years together.

Well, there goes my gaydar.

Zsofia, there’s that too.

Anyone know if they’re the first brother-sister characters to hook up? (Greg and Marcia don’t count.)

Well ya know what they say about incest…!

(It’s the best!)

For a second, I read that as Dexter and Dee-Dee. But then I re-read it. (Hey - plausibly the voice actors could have gotten married, though they’re both women and I don’t know the age difference.)

Deb is sex on wheels. I loved the introduction to her character in the show. MMMMMMMM

Wow, that is very odd. They do make a cute couple though…

From the link:

Somehow I read this to mean her grandfather was in a band that played at the wedding, and … Oh, never mind.

I was all set to come in here saying, “SPOILER IN THE TITLE” when I realized…wait…Debra not Rita…OMG!

Nope. Off the top of my head Jason Behr and Katherine Heigl of Roswell were doing all sorts of icky things in private (and occasionally in public) while playing brother and sister.

And I’m sure they’re not the first.

He only played gay on Six Feet Under. I thought he was already married. Did Debra break up his first marriage?

I think it would be awkward as an actor, to play opposite your wife and pretend she’s your sister, but it would be better than to play opposite your sister and pretend she’s you wife!

Not quite the same thing, but the actors playing Peter and Claire (uncle and niece) hooked up.

I seem to recall there being a sibling acting duo (male and female) who shared a hardcore makeout scene.

I can’t remember the name of the film, or the two actors, but they were relatively young at the time and… that’s it. I think they might’ve had blondish hair, not that that’s helpful. :smack:

I will search, and if I find, post.
Oh, and… Here’s hoping they have a happy life and marriage.

He was married before. He got divorced in 06 which was the year Dexter started.

If they ever had kids, they would grow up to be normal, but could only play retarded characters.

No kidding! I never thought my gaydar was worth a hill of beans anyway, but I thought Dex was a “gimme”.

When I saw the thread title, (and not yet having seen Season 3), I thought, “That show has completely gone off the rails.”

Of course, the characters on the show aren’t biologically siblings, since Dexter was adopted. Is it legal for step-siblings or adoptive siblings to marry? We’ve probably already had a lengthy thread about that.

Anyway, I hope it works out for them.

I hope to God since that’s what my parents were! (Adoptive sibs.)

Unfortunately, they didn’t have the same consideration for my brother & I to adopt wives for us! LOL!

Me too, kind of a “Dammit, it was on last night…no wait…wait what”
