Great show, you've got to watch it. hide show
This show is absolutely one of the best I've seen in a very long time. The way the writers portray his character and his alter ego is absolutely amazing. The end of Season four has only opened up even more doors for him to open and will ultimately lead to him being even more vicious than in season one and two. I'm curious though, to see how he will deal with the children. The writers, as usual, will most likely make the situation into something amazing as usual. I recommend this to anyone who likes drama's and a strangely complicated main-character.
Maybe it was just a dream. The new season opens with Dexter asleep at the table and his cell phone ringing with Rita calling him to see where he is. hide show
the writers have to realize that even Dexter could not handle such a trauma as finding his wife in a bloody mess like his Mom. He would go completely catatonic. I don't know how they can possibly spin it so that he can walk away without being completely out of his mind. Not to mention Deb, after all she has been through how can she handle another horrible death? It seems like the only way the show can move forward is that if Dexter was having a nightmare about this stuff and he wakes up next episode. i also don't believe they would dump the actress so abruptly.
Depressive and hugely thrilling in a way I would not have guessed. A past revealed, unexpected death and no normality and family life for poor Dexter. hide show
Well this has been a hard evening for me. After watching a really depressive ending in Californication I did not believe that it could get much worse tonight. Until this episode of Dexter. All hope for salvation for Dexter ended and the hope for normal family values went out the window.
With the death of Rita what will now be the new mission of Dexter? Moving to another city, go after Bin Laden. I can hardly wait for the next season.
The take down of Arthur was a bit to easy. I would have like that Dexter instead of killing Arthur would somehow have delivered him to Debra on a platter, so she could get closure which could have indicated that Dexter somehow had matured as a serial killer.
Great episode by the way.
A totally unforgettable ending.......... hide show
OMG! This show was amazing and a fitting conclusion to a great season. Did not see the ending coming till the last second and what a dark twist it was. Although most will find Rita's death unsettling, it shows the series is willing to take some chances to keep things fresh and unpredictable. I've watched the whole series to date in the last several months after my son got me hooked on it. What an amazing series and premise. The best thing on TV in my opinion. The series is much better than the books which had some pretty unsatisfying endings for some. John Lithgow was incredible this year - the epitome of evil. He was able to take something from Dexter right up to his death, and beyond. Can't wait to see how this will be resolved next year and how Dexter's relationship with Deb will evolve. I've never written a review on a TV program but this one deserved it. 10+
Dexter is a show worth the investment of TV time! hide show
There are not many TV shows that I schedule my life around. Currently, Dexter is one of three that I go out of my way to watch.
Unexpected twists, clever writing, believable acting, strong character development, intriguing story lines...what more could you ask for? Crazy premise, sure---but if you're able to suspend the general concept as being a little far-fetched, as entertainment content, it's one of the best on-going shows on Television.
As each week passes, I try to figure out what the next twist will be--and rarely get it right. Maybe I'm over-thinking it, or the writers are clever enough to go "obvious" when viewers expect something else...and crafty enough to go in a different direction when the viewers expect the obvious. Superb television!
