A review I saw called it the worst episode of Dexter ever, so I wouldn't get your hopes up.

Some thoughts on the previews for the season finale: hell, if nobody's gonna notice that Dexter has an uncanny ability to attracct serial killers SPOILERS (Icetruck turns out to be his brother, Trinity kills his wife and now Dexter face painted by Travis on a freaking wall + the shit with Harisson and Travis that we're going to see next) /SPOILERS and deduce that there just might be something off with Dexter, I'm going to lose my faith in the show.

This season's had its ups and downs, but for me Dexter is like House. After a phenomenal first season or two both shows have settled into a pretty well established formula that keep them from approaching the best shows on television right now. Both shows have had their moments since, particularly in Season 4 (most of it for Dexter, and the two part finale for House, which is still some of the best TV I've ever watched), but I largely tune in because I like the characters and the formulas.

^ I agree

my favourite TV show is Castle, for God's sake. It's the same thing over and over again, but I love the characters!

The last episode of Dexter was a let down, but they can still finish the season strong. This season is only behind seasons 1, 2, and 4 right now (so it's very middle of the pack). I still very much enjoy this show, and it's probably my favorite on TV right now.

It was renewed for another two years so, we'll see what they can do next

Yep, can't wait for season 7 and 8. I hope this series makes it to 10. Just a good number to make it to before closing the series.

The last episode was so horrible.

*spoilers*

Like, seriously? DDK gets a hold of Dexter and just decides to put him in a boat with gasoline around it and then throws a match? And oh wow that was such a major shocker when Dexter gets dizzy and passes out when he is about to go in for the kill. Isn't this at least the second time this has happened? Wouldn't Dexter be a little smarter about shit like this now? At least wait until the dizzy spell passed before leaving your fucking hiding spot and trying to ambush him.

And the whole Deb/Dexter thing... bleh. Not impressed with this season at all. The whole season has been a let down, especially after the epicness that was the last season of Breaking Bad. I guess they have one more chance this season to change my mind, but this is easily the worst season of Dexter yet. I'm really hoping they kill off a bunch of people next episode so there is actually something noteworthy from this season.

^^ I agree with pretty much everything written above. Except the statement, that this is the worst season - season 3 is the worst for me, by far.

Zoom E · « **Reply #291 on:** December 18, 2011, 11:07:48 PM »

That was on OMG ending to the seaon finale...I was hoping to see that happen sonner or later.

axeman90210 · « **Reply #292 on:** December 19, 2011, 12:02:56 AM »

Had a feeling that was coming... looking forward to where they take it next season.

ResultsMayVary · « **Reply #293 on:** December 19, 2011, 12:28:05 AM »

This makes everything so much more interesting. That was probably my favorite finale out of all seasons. The first 40 minutes was less eventful than I expected, but that ending delivered.

Tripp · « **Reply #294 on:** December 19, 2011, 06:24:05 AM »

Cliffhangers such as that should be illegal.

That finale for House was the Amber's Heart/Wilson's Head ones right? Fantastic, fantastic television those were!

And, the last episode was pretty much standard until that cliffhanger. They finally did it!

Good on ya writers!

But anyway, I hope the Lewis mailing the hand thing has some significance on next season and the writers don't just sweep it under the rug like they did with the club shootout from season 5.

Though overall this season was lackluster and a big let down after the way it began. I mean they had EDJ and his talent was pretty much wasted! He would've made a very much more awesome bad guy than Colin Hanks. But this cliffhanger blows the future of the series wide-open.

Sigz · « **Reply #296 on:** December 19, 2011, 02:19:33 PM »

That was a pretty terrible episode, however, huzzah for the ending.

Yup, one of the few times, if not the only time I've ever teared up watching a TV show.

Thanks for the link. Very informative!

Well, the show returns on September 30th and they announced one of the new characters in a story arc. Ray Stevenson who will play a Russian crime syndicate member. Another article was that there is rumor of yet another love interest. Supposedly there is a new character named Hannah who has the possibility of staying in the show until the end in 2014.

Awesome, can't wait. I know most think the quality fell of a cliff after the first couple seasons, but I still greatly enjoy it!

Dimitrius · « **Reply #302 on:** April 24, 2012, 05:09:05 PM »

Well, let's hope the show becomes good again... last 2 season have been frustratingly bad!

chknptpie · « **Reply #303 on:** April 24, 2012, 08:16:08 PM »

I just want to know how the cliffhanger of last season is dealt with!

Yes, I felt as if nothing really important happened the entire season, and it was only meant to be a buildup to that inevitable climax.

Just watched the final episode of season 6. Holy shit!

Dimitrius · « **Reply #307 on:** September 28, 2012, 08:01:32 AM »

That cliffhanger was probably the best thing about the whole season.

That's a fair conclusion.

Such a great episode! I'm fucking pumped for the season.

SPOILER:
Anyone else a little sad that Mike died?

Eh, it was alright.

ResultsMayVary · « **Reply #311 on:** September 30, 2012, 11:35:19 PM »

I thought they did well with the episode considering the end of the last season. They definitely followed that cliffhanger up with a winner in this premiere. Can't wait until next week's episode.

snapple · « **Reply #312 on:** October 01, 2012, 05:03:25 AM »

I wont get a chance to watch Dexter until tonight. If this episode doesn't feel like it's going to deliver, I give up on the show entirely.

HarlequinForest · « **Reply #313 on:** October 01, 2012, 10:18:22 AM »

Really excited about this show for the first time in a long time. I worry about the quality of the Russian story arc to come, though...

SystematicThought · « **Reply #314 on:** October 01, 2012, 10:23:49 AM »

Yeah, they could really make that cheesy and not very good at all.

The season preview at the end was pretty interesting. The guy running with the horn mask on seemed interesting.

Any one have views on Mike?
