Very good job on Dexter

I'm amazed at how well this girl developed her part in Dexter. At first, her role didn't offer much, she was just the typical secondary role and she only had to say little lines, pout and smile, but as the season 4 went on and her character developed the truth inside it and her struggle, this actress shows how damn fine is she able to manage really hard to perform scenes. She's totally believable while having a panic attack or a nervous breakdown, and a person who hides a dark secret beneath an obsession. Not just a pretty face. I like these shows in which they cast and discover worth-to-see unknown actors.

Congrats on your job, Courtney Ford if you ever check your imdb and read this!

I am a little late coming into the fourth season of Dexter and have only seen a few episodes but I must say, I liked Courtney Ford from her very first scene. I was not expecting that. I thought she fit in very well with the more established cast of Dexter, and I am looking forward to seeing more of her work in the later episodes.

Hell yeah she was good!! She was awesome to watch!
Her role on Dexter Season 4 is when I first got a glimpse of her. Yeah, where have I been right? She ended up becoming one of my favorite characters to watch in the new season. Even more so than Rita(Dexter's Girlfriend), played by Julie Benz.
After watching her in Dexter months later. I caught a split second of her, in a movie called "Fling". I've become a huge fan of the movie, for her, the movie itself, and her co-star husband Brandon Routh.
IMDB said it best. She's a gorgeous actress on the rise!

She is very beautiful, her benefit is a simple name like hers can go well before a title but her negative is its impossible to take someone serious with her level of beauty and the nude scenes. She'll probably star in lifetime type movies.

At first you think, oh, bimbo reporter....ho hum....where she went with the character was amazing, and she did an excellent job.

I totally agree. She does an amazing job. When she is talking to her father, it looks like she feels like she lives psychologically underwater all the time, and only comes up for air when she talks to him. His love, or at least, her desire for his love, is her only reason for existing. It's so captivating to watch her face.

Amazing. Amazing. Amazing.

You are toast, my toasty friend.
