Recently I got hooked on Dexter, and last night, I spotted something weird when they showed a brief shot of what was supposed to be Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
Odd, considering that in Port-au-Prince the wealthy live high on the hills, not at sea level, and considering the scene looks an awful lot like one of the favelas in Flamengo or Catete, looking out over Flamengo, Urca, the Cagarras Islands, Guanabara Bay and the Sugarloaf. Ou seja, Rio de Janeiro.
Nice try, Showtime!
ha ha! I didn't catch that. I too LOVE Dexter

so thats why Haiti is poor... they spent all the money to make a real size replica of the sugarloaf!

I wanted to add something meaningful, but the above comment got me laughing way harder than it should.
