Dexter

Right now I'm waching Season 2 and I'm really enjoying it.  There is one thing that irks me though, neither Dexter nor his sister can speak a word of Spanish!  They work for the MIAMI police dept. and can't even communicate with their constituency?  It's very strange.

I don't expect them to be fluently bilingual but you'd think they would at least learn a few expressions by osmosis.  Deb actually said "no habla" instead of "no hablo" and Dexter didn't understand what "mi hijo" meant?
Anyway, I can overlook this because the show is so damn good!  :-*
