Dexter - Possible Spoilers

[Skippord]

swing and a miss

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

I saw the twist coming too SORT OF, but they did a good job not giving any clues the entire episode that it would happen so when it did happen, your heart starts pumping. It like that it happened, it gives the show its balls back.

[Requiem]

I 'kind of' saw it coming because up to that point I was like "Come on, where is this 'huge twist' the previews were raving about?" It couldn't have been Deb finding out about Dexter, because that didn't pan out into a nearly revealing enough situation for it to be a 'twist'. Then as soon as he listened to the voicemail, it was obvious instantly. I was still like "No way.." when I realized it, and then just kinda sat there with a dropped jaw as he walked into the bathroom.

[Buzzkill]

Haha DAMN yeah I sort of saw that coming, but really loved the way they set it up.

Perfect way for it to happen (after the fact)

[Dragon]

Definitely had a feeling that would be coming but maybe because we've heard of a huge twist for a while now.

Pretty crazy looking back at the scene where Trinity is on the table now and you kinda see why he was saying some of the things he was. And pretty much why he was so calm. He got Dexter in the end. Dexter can't get revenge on someone who's already dead.

Can't wait to see where they go with this next year. Definitely see next season as Dexter's dark side taking over a little more, especially after this. Although I don't know how he's gonna find the time to kill without Rita to watch the kids. I also wonder how he's gonna explain his wife being killed the same way as the other Trinity kills. I dunno, can't wait for next season.

[RatedGSuperstar]

On the ending...

I actually had a feeling earlier in the season that Trinity would target Rita before he even met Dexter. She just fit the profile of the women he went after -- mid to late 30's with kids, etc. -- just didn't know if she was a bathtub death or a jumper. Once it seemed like the kill cycle was over I thought she was "safe" until Trinity found out Dexter's true identity.

On a sidenote, the conversation between Michael C. Hall and John Lithgow after the show/before the Californication finale was pretty interesting, too. I was a little surprised at the way Hall looked, though -- don't know if it's going to be a new look for Dexter, if he's working on another movie at the moment, or just wanted to shake things up while he's not in character, though.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

How did Hall look?

[UmbrellaCorporation]

I 'kind of' saw it coming because up to that point I was like "Come on, where is this 'huge twist' the previews were raving about?" It couldn't have been Deb finding out about Dexter, because that didn't pan out into a nearly revealing enough situation for it to be a 'twist'.

One thing about the Deb/Dexter thing.

Why was a bigger deal not made of it?

It's been a bit since I've seen season one, although I should do a rewatch. That said...how did that revelation to Deb about Dexter/Rudy end up so...flat?

The episode was amazing, but that part where she talked to him about Laura Moser just seemed to fall flat on its face, IMO.

Anyone else feel that way? And I am also a little sad that Trinity didn't get away.

[UmbrellaCorporation]

Like in the books, if anyone's read them: Who will babysit Harrison while Dexter kills? The answer is simple. (Not the babysitting part but the returning character part.

Cyborg Doakes.

Deb finding out about Dexter, because that didn't pan out into a nearly revealing enough situation for it to be a 'twist'. Then as soon as he listened to the voicemail, it was obvious instantly. I was still like "No way.." when I realized it, and then just kinda sat there with a dropped jaw as he walked into the bathroom.

I was exactly the same, it clicked with the voicemail and I was like 'shiiiit' until the reveal. The last 10-15 minutes of the ep was perfect TV.

[PapaGeorgio]

Was a big fan of this episode and season. Wasn't a let down in anyway. I liked how they teased it at the end to that everything was fine. The inter monolgue started, the typical wrap up an episode music was going. Just as Dexter finally figured out how to make it work, just when you were getting nervous that maybe it would just end like that, they brought it out. They did a good job with it all I thought.

[Requiem]

I think more will come of the Deb thing. I mean, Quinn is still suspicious of Dexter. And with Rita being killed in a Trinity manner, I think shit is just going to get all fucked up next season. Maybe Quinn is going to do something that will make Deb more suspicious of Dexter, and maybe she will find out herself.

I mean, she is becoming a pretty good detective. She found Trinity's identity even with Dexter trying to fuck things up the whole time. She solved the Lundy case. I wouldn't find it strange if the FBI took an interest in her next season, honestly.

In regards to second paragraph, second half. I was thinking the same thing with all that.

[Skippord]

How did Hall look?
shaved head, with cool looking sideburns

I thought it was pretty sexy

[Sixx]

THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR KISSING THE NEIGHBOUR BITCH

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

shaved head, with cool looking sideburns

I thought it was pretty sexy

Just saw the interview it was pretty awesome, great to see how enthusiastic Lithgow was about the part. And yes, Hall did look sexy.

[Soda Popinski]

Next season; Joseph Gordon Levitt as the new serial killer.

Here's the great discussion between Hall and Lithgow out of character about the finale. Obviously, don't watch if you haven't seen the finale yet.

[Lock Jaw]

I would drink Rita's bathwater.

[RottingFreak]

That's kinda gross bro

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

It's some surrius dedication tho, gotta give him that.

[ron the dial]

just finished season 4 last night or this morning at like 7 am after marathoning it all night. great season, but i fucking hate the ending. absolutely hate it. maybe that'll change when put in the context of next season, but for right now i'm not very happy.

[Buzzkill]

What do you hate about the ending, I thought it was great.

Tied all the themes of the season together

[ron the dial]

i just don't like rita being dead :( i absolutely agree that it was the best way to go, but i saw it coming a mile away and just didn't think they'd be so obvious. guess it was the only thing that made sense to do, though.

[ron the dial]

perhaps should spoiler tag that but it's been a week plus i managed to avoid this thread. so can everyone else who hasn't seen it.

[thedamndest]

I think everyone that watches the show has either seen the ending or is avoiding the thread but I have edited the title of the thread so we don't have to keep tagging everything.

[ron the dial]

you are an angel

[thedamndest]

I liked the ending. I think it will take Dexter in a strange new direction in that he is probably very conflicted at being responsible for her death and doesn't ever want to let a fuck up like Trinity happen again, but he can't because he has the kids. I will miss Rita, but I'm not ruling her out popping up in visions or flashbacks.

[ron the dial]

yeah i could see her having a harry type role. would actually be extremely interesting to see rita and harry interact in dexter's head.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Never thought of that. Would make the most sense really.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

plus Julie Benz wouldn't be out of a job lol

[Soda Popinski]

I hate the dreaming atmosphere whenever he talks to Harry though. I'd like it much better if it seemed like Harry was actually there and not in a Saved by the Bell day dream thingy.

[Buzzkill]

Yeah I thought about this, I hope they don't do it.

The Harry plot mechanism is really tired and corny at this point imo, and there's really no reason to expand upon it in my book

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

I enjoy the Harry sequences. James Remar is the man :(

[Lock Jaw]

Yeah, I like the Harry stuff. Especially this season. This season Harry almost acted entirely like Dexter's darkest thoughts. Played the devil's advocate.

It gives Dexter some way of externalizing his mental struggles, rather then relying even more on the voiceovers.

[thedamndest]

Yeah, watching the first seasons it feels like something is missing without the Harry sequences (even though they are there in flashback form).

[Requiem]

Would be much happier with an Arthur devil's advocate.

[thedamndest]

Have you guys seen this Dodge Journey Commercial with Michael C. Hall narrating?

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/IdpTXUm4LIo&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/IdpTXUm4LIo&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

If you follow Dexter, the last line of "If you're one of those people, I feel sorry for you..." seems vaguely threatening.

[Buzzkill]

lol

[Skippord]

Dexter should kill someone in a Dodge Journey next year

[Skippord]

Michael C. Hall has cancer

http://www.popeater.com/2010/01/13/dexter-michael-c-hall-cancer/

[RoXer]

Yeah was just going to post that. Was probly why he was bald in that interview.

[Lock Jaw]

Michael C. Hall and John Lithgow both took home Golden Globes yesterday. In case you guys don't read or watch the news.

Really, I just wanted to post this to say "huzzah" for both of them, but especially Lithgow.

[Jon Kano]

can't believe Lithgow beat Michael Emmerson , but fair play, was a good performance.

[CSL]

I love Benjamin Linus as much as anybody but I'd give Arthur Mitchell the nod over the last 12 months

[Buzzkill]

can't believe Lithgow beat Michael Emmerson , but fair play, was a good performance.
Emmerson is way too one dimensional...don't get me wrong, it's a great dimension, but Lithgow showed a huge acting range this season

[thedamndest]

Michael C. Hall and John Lithgow both earned their awards this season. Mad Men beating Dexter will actually make me check out that show now.

[Jon Kano]

I love Lithgow, but I thought Emmerson was better.

[Lock Jaw]

You also have a Dharma Initiative avatar.

[Jon Kano]

I also watched the whole season 4 of Dexter.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Dexter was brilliant this season. Just finished airing on Showcase over here. Chilling season. All of it was great, but it picked up in the second half and really got a new momentum for the show. Rita being a victim is something that has been a long time coming, but it was surprising how they did it. Not wanting to see John Lithgow go, the idea of a Harry Morgan/Arthur Mitchell devil's advocate thing crossed my mind, too.

Another thing that I am curious to see: The relationship between Dexter and Quinn. I expect Quinn to be much nicer to Dexter now that Rita is dead. To be honest, I can already see how a lot of the characters will evolve in season five (even "Mind Harry").

I'll make a prediction, though: I expect the biggest change to happen in Batista.

[Buzzkill]

I bet Deb changes a ton too

[ImpactPlayer365]

Yeah. I see Quinn becoming more suspicious of Dexter ala Doakes. Also with the revelation of Dexter being the Ice Truck killers brother...Deb is going to start having her own suspicions. Rita dying the way the Trinity Killer does it? That'll come off as odd also i think...Great season...great to have Lithgow in this past season.

[Jura]

Deb told Dexter that he's the only person she can trust and was always there for her. Now that Rita is gone they will get closer and bang. I think it's pretty obvious.

[Jon Kano]

...yeah, Dexter and Deb are gonna fuck!

[RatedGSuperstar]

Well they aren't related by blood... :shifty:

[Mr. Nerfect]

Yeah. I see Quinn becoming more suspicious of Dexter ala Doakes. Also with the revelation of Dexter being the Ice Truck killers brother...Deb is going to start having her own suspicions. Rita dying the way the Trinity Killer does it? That'll come off as odd also i think...Great season...great to have Lithgow in this past season.

I see Quinn doing the opposite, actually. I think he's more likely to feel bad for the allegations he made while Rita was still alive, and actually make a conscious effort to be kind to Dexter -- even if it isn't reciprocated by Dexter (in his outwards behaviour). Quinn's got the "buddy-cop" representation down. Dexter may not strictly be "police," but I think Quinn feels bad enough that he feels sorry for Dexter.

That's why I think Batista will change the most -- it balances out with Quinn. Angel didn't really have much to do this season, other than bang La Guerta. The Dexter team very rarely put something in the show for no reason at all. I won't tell you where they are; but go back and watch the final episode if you can. Keep an eye on what Batista does during the episode. There are two (what I feel are) key moments where Batista is focused on at a moment when Batista doesn't feel like the focus. If you keep an eye out, you will know what they are. The first one is almost so obvious it slips under your radar.

But a large part of season five, in my predictions, is Angel Batista deciding whether or not to be a good friend to Dexter, and give him the benefit of the doubt; or be a good cop and look a little into Dexter's lifestyle.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Deb told Dexter that he's the only person she can trust and was always there for her. Now that Rita is gone they will get closer and bang. I think it's pretty obvious.

I know this is a joke, but I definitely see Deb moving in with Dexter temporarily to help him adjust to his new role as a single-dad, and providing the kids with a prominent female figure in their life. That's not them banging, but I could see Debra banging Elliot or something. I'm just trying to think of ways for Deb to take her top off.

[thedamndest]

I wouldn't be surprised if Deb moved in with Dexter to help out with the kids. Who will watch them while he kills people?

[Skippord]

I kind of expect Rita's kids to be taken by one of their sets of grandparents

[Jura]

That's not them banging, but I could see Debra banging Elliot or something. I'm just trying to think of ways for Deb to take her top off.

I was half joking actually. Since they aren't related by blood and the actors are married to each other in real life there is a small chance they might at least tease us with the idea.

[Lock Jaw]

I want to see people wondering why the Trinity killer seemingly started this new cycle, but then disappeared. I can see that leading to a closer look at Dexter.

[DrA]

He should have been caught in season 2. All the other seasons now are like "ok you almost got caught but you really should have been caught in season 2".

[ImpactPlayer365]

Maybe they make this the last season cause of his illness. But either way it'll be interesting to see where they go from here.

[Jura]

The only thing that will stop me from labeling this TV show as one of the greats would be if they don't at least tease some kind of sexual tension between Deb and Dexter.

I saw a video of Julie Benz on Desperate House Wives wearing something skimpy and god she has a great body.

[Sixx]

I don't wanna see Deb having on-screen sex ever again. I hate her face and she sooo reminds me of my sister.

[ron the dial]

this guy must be some kinda faggit

[DrA]

Am I the only one that really liked Season 3? I hear everyone say that it isn't as good as the other seasons, but I disagree. I loved Jimmy Smits and that sycophant part. They probably could have done better with the whole skinner storyline, but other than that I thought things were well done there.

[Jura]

Season 3 was when I started watching and I became a big fan. Then I went back and watched the first two. I actually like 3 the best I guess because of the dynamic of Dexter finding a guy to share his secrets to and kill with that has the potential to go very wrong which it did.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Jimmy Smits was pretty fucking awesome.

[DrA]

I just rewatched season 2. Why didn't they just look at the databases to see who looked up the information of the criminals? Surely they woud have records of who logged on and they would have seen that Dexter searched for all of the people whom they identified as the bodies. Also when they videotaped him cleaning the boat and he did the fire alarm to delete the footage, wouldn't they have noticed that there was a huge chunk of the video missing? It just doesn't seem plausible to me that he wouldn't have gotten caught after they figured out it was someone who worked for the police that committed those murders.

[DrA]

I think they did that particular storyline too early in the series. They should have developed other things a little more before having a huge man hunt for him.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

I think they did that particular storyline too early in the series. They should have developed other things a little more before having a huge man hunt for him.

I agree wholeheartedly.

It just doesn't seem plausible to me that he wouldn't have gotten caught after they figured out it was someone who worked for the police that committed those murders.

They did think it was someone from the police and they did investigate the officers but I think with Dexter's dad being an outstanding officer and having his sister Deb in the force too he would probably be one of the last they would suspect. So when Lundy brought in Dexter to help with the investigation it was clear he never suspected Dexter but even if he did he was fucking his sister. Then things started to point at the black guy, I forgot his name.

[Requiem]

James Doakes

[Buzzkill]

I think they did that particular storyline too early in the series. They should have developed other things a little more before having a huge man hunt for him.
Totally agreed.

At the same time, if they had done the Season 3 storyline, I probably wouldn't have been hooked on the show like I was

[ImpactPlayer365]

Yeah..but Season 4 made you forget about the third season.

[DrA]

Shawn Hatosy (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004999/) is making a pit stop in Miami before returning to Southland (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1299368/): Sources confirm to me exclusively that Hatosy has booked a multi-episode arc on Dexter. A Showtime rep declined to divulge details on his character, but a recent Dexter casting call may offer a clue: The drama was seeking a thirtysomething actor to play the recurring role of a no-nonsense FBI agent.
After completing his Dexter arc, Hatosy will head immediately into production on Southland (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1299368/)’s 10-episode third season.

I heard they also got Julia Stiles. It should be an interesting season, even though I hate thirtysomething no-nonsense FBI agents.

[Lock Jaw]

Julia Stiles will probably sleep with Dexter's sister.

[CSL]

I like Shawn Hatosy, underrated actor.

[Triple A]

Trying to watch the first episode right now. I am about 40 minutes in. This show seems "very fucking shitty" to me. Like I almost hate it.

I don't understand. Feels so "cartoonish" and "zany" or something. The character is like trying to be all "dark" but has this zany/cocky attitude that is so annoying.

Does it get better later in the season, or in future seasons? I am not sure what is going on here. Feels kinda like a show that would be a "USA Network Original Series." Heard this show was so good from so many people.

[DrA]

I don't know if you are going to like this show. I thought you wouldn't like it when you mentioned that you wanted to watch it. I don't really like it either really, except that I do. The sister is the most annoying character on television and you are going to hate her.

[RoXer]

He came off that way to me too at first, but I guess it grows on you? Or you learn to accept his style of acting. I dunno. But he definitly acts that way from here on out, but you get used to it. The writing is great, corny at times though. I would say you should watch the whole season before giving up on it but that's a lot to ask for.

If you decide to opt-out, I highly suggest you start watching Breaking Bad. Fucking tremendous show. This, Breaking Bad, and Lost is all that's left for you to watch.

[Triple A]

Yeah when the sister came on, that was the point where I thought I might actually "hate" this show. Then some part a little later on she say some woman "needs to get laid" and starts eating a donut and smacking her lips while saying something with a really smug look on her face.

[RoXer]

The sister can get irritating too yeah. Really, all of the characters are kind of bland/stereotypical.

I think this show is good enough for your parents or friends to enjoy, but not "smart" enough for you.

[RoXer]

The perverted Asian sidekick, the sassy Cuban seargent, the tom boyish sister dectective trying to impress her dead father

[Triple A]

Rest of the episode wasn't that bad. I think I could probably like it if I kept watching. Def seems like it would grow on you. But yeah I think it just caught me off guard how "corny" it was or something.

Yeah, saw the last 4-5 episodes of last season of Breaking Bad and I liked it, but haven't watched anything this season.

[Requiem]

The sister isn't like that for the entire show though, seriously. She starts off as a rookie and seems really dumb as a character for a while, but she is not terrible later. They do a really good job with character development all around I would say, for not delving too deep into the lives of characters other than Dexter. Also, this last season was IMMENSE. John Lithgow is in it and it is probably one of the most 'chilling' seasons of Dexter ever.

[thedamndest]

I still think his sister is irritating. But I'm pretty sure the reason that she is a little much at times is because Dexter is so calm, so I see why she is that way.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Season 5 trailer released at Comic Con this week:

<object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/CUbCMbW-BRE&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/CUbCMbW-BRE&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>

Still not a fan of Quinn. They shouldn't have killed off Doakes so soon.

[Lock Jaw]

Awesome. Seems like its picking up right from where it left off, and will be dealing with all the loose threads left over from last season (Kyle Butler, Trinity killing a married woman and then disappearing).

[ImpactPlayer365]

i was watching a trailer where it showed Dexter dabbling in a bit of man love this season...

[Miotch]

I'm guessing it's just to lure in a victim. When does this come back? (It might be in the trailer, but it's taking forever to load on youtube.)

[Lock Jaw]

September 26.

Still hoping that Rita makes some appearances in "ghost" form like Harry. Doubtful, though, since she's already got some new show she's in. Some Fantastic Four/Incredibles/Heroes clone.

[Buzzkill]

Hmm am I the only one completely unexcited by that trailer?

[Requiem]

Yes.

[Requiem]

Also, looks like the villain of the season may be Dexter himself? I don't know. It didn't hint at any one bad guy.. just Quinn getting suspicious and Dexter going apeshit on some guy smashing his face in or something.

[Triple Naitch]

Just started watching this show on Netflix and fucking love it. Only 4 episodes in.

[Jura]

Also, looks like the villain of the season may be Dexter himself? I don't know. It didn't hint at any one bad guy.. just Quinn getting suspicious and Dexter going apeshit on some guy smashing his face in or something.

That guy is the one who tried to get cozy with Rita.

I feel like Quinn gets even more suspicious and becomes like Doakes. Dexter feels guilt for getting Rita involved in all of this because "Harry" always told him it was a bad idea to get close and because he has no one to go after (as the killer is dead) or blame, we will watch him either try to cope with it or break down.

[Downunder]

When does it air in the US - I'm hanging out for the torrent.

[Jura]

At 9 pm Eastern US.

[Destro 2.0]

Who is watching tonight?

What do you think is going to happen?

With such a shocker last season how do you think things are gonna pan out for Dexter?

Do you really think Dexter is ready to raise 3 children by himself and how is going to balance Serial Killing and Fatherhood?

So discuss and so on.....

I will join the thread after the show tonight .

[Destro 2.0]

So what does everyone think so far?

[Juan]

I still need to watch the previous season.

Like a dickhead, I read a spoiler in here about Rita right when I was about to catch up on the season, and I just haven't been able to get back into it.

It's not really a huge "hang up" but I've just been lazy about catching up.

[Lock Jaw]

Season Premiere thoughts:

I hope they don't just gloss over the fact that Dexter just killed a random dude for no reason in a rather sloppy fashion.

The scene was brilliant, with Dexter finally letting things out, but I hope they don't ignore the killing.

Do we need spoiler tags in this thread? I would think most people would have the common sense to stay out until they see the episode.

[Jura]

We'll probably see how he handled it, in the next episode.

Either he goes back to "clean up", or the body is discovered and he realizes that there may be something at the scene linking him to the crime.

I thought it was pretty good for a season premiere, which are usually pretty boring as they set things up for the future. Dexter's inability to express much emotion making him look suspicious was great, and so was that second where you almost thought he'd make a run for it (well, if you didn't watch the trailer for the season).

Can't wait for the next episode.

You should watch the whole season right now. That part gets talked about because it was so shocking, but the Lithgow is amazing in the entire season.

And everyone else, no, you don't need spoilers in here. It's in the title.

[Requiem]

I figure he was probably late to the funeral because he cleaned up the body. I mean, his father came back at that moment so I think he may have snapped back to reality and coached himself into doing things like normal again for a brief time. He had his boat and such there anyways, didn't he?

[thedamndest]

Yeah, I think it's just that he was cleaning up/far away to begin with. The focus of the episode was obviously about Dexter's emotional state and I would doubt that this whim kill is something that we're really meant to dwell on.

[Sixx]

I loved the headbutt.

[Cooler Tom Schuler]

My money says that Elliot killed Rita.

[Lock Jaw]

I hope not.

[Buzzkill]

Might seriously be done watching Dexter. Season 4 was awesome but for some reason I have zero interest for the current story arc.

[thedamndest]

Nothing has happened yet. The first two episodes have been spent with the aftermath of season four. Give them time to do something.

[Jura]

Gets a little more interesting.

[Skippord]

this is certainly the first thing that's ever made me want to rail Julia Stiles for some reason

[Miotch]

I'm guessing it's because you have rape fantasies.

[Skippord]

that could be true

and formaldehyde fantasies

[DrA]

Season doesn't make any sense at all.

[Downunder]

After last nights episode, things just picked up - I think this will be another solid season.

I see Quinn ending up like Doakes, I was hoping that Lumen would get more involved, but IMBD only has her listed in 3 episodes.

[Skippord]

I think she's supposed to be in 10 episodes and IMDB is only giving credit for the ones that have aired already.

[Requiem]

Gonna be an awesome season. Last night's episode was fantastic.

[Downunder]

Agreed, Lumen and Dexter on a revenge killing spree - gotta love that

[Sixx]

Always enjoy him beating the shit out of people.

[Sixx]

Can't wait for the season finale now.

[Miotch]

Yeah they've set it up beautifully. While this season doesn't hold a candle to last, they've still done an amazing job with it.

[DrA]

It's been a sloppy season but still fun to watch. I don't know if this would be the plot I would have chosen for this season though. It sort of feels like a rough draft idea writers have before coming up with something better.

[PapaGeorgio]

Haven't been too huge on this season to be honest, especially following last season. Though I think things are finally in motion and next weeks could be a good episode. Hate how Dexter is in love with that girl now though. Hopefully fun to see Terry/Dexter next week. Hopefully Terry doesn't get sent to prison because of blood on his shoes/Dexter framing him for the murder.

Thinking the show should end things within next season or two. One season leading up to him getting figured out (maybe will be this one). Then one season of him on the run.

[Jura]

Who is Terry?

[PapaGeorgio]

Sorry Quinn, no fucking idea why I called him Terry. Not gonna edit my post so everyone knows I'm an idiot. Terrible with names. Take care.

[G]

I bet you had to imdb his name :D

[PapaGeorgio]

heh yeah. Like purposefully left out other peoples names above cause didn't care to think of what they are even though pretty sure I know them, whatever.

Also, anyone think dead cop gonna come back next week as ROBOCOP and stop Dexter once and for all next season? Really hoping that happens next season.

[thedamndest]

Maybe you accidentally combined him with Terry O'Quinn from LOST.

[Sixx]

Dunno. I'm lovin' this season.

Of course you can't top Lithgow with that flat chested bitch and the idea of Dexter being in love makes me sick but still, I think this season's great.

[Requiem]

Yeah I am loving this season. I find it hard to top last season no matter what, so I feel the subject matter and the way they've dealt with this season has been great. I like the idea of Dexter falling for someone. Every season has been about him trying to find someone 'like' him, and failing. It finally seems to have gone right for him this season, but now he's fighting to protect that.

[PapaGeorgio]

Love stuff just seems so out of place for Dexter. Just don't buy it at all

[Sixx]

Anyone else thinks Lumen dies next episode?

[DrA]

I don't know if she dies but I think they'll find a way to write her off of the show.

My problem with this season is that they completely stopped mentioning so many plots. The Kyle Butler thing, that Mexican female cop, that entire thing about the El Mariachis or whatever they were called. I also don't like the way Robocop was killed.They built up that guy for episodes only for him to go out like a gimp. I'm not sure if I buy the Jordan Chase character either. They keep on making a big deal about how famous he is, but I don't know of any gimmicky self-help guy who is that famous. Dr. Phil maybe. It almost feels like they are over-doing it just to make him seem like a more important character. Everything has felt off ever since they killed off Rita.

I will say that it improved quite a bit the second half of the season. Maybe everything will make sense after episode.

[Sixx]

I don't know if she dies but I think they'll find a way to write her off of the show.


Yeah, well another option is she figures all is done and she can go on with her life and just go back to her family. Dunno.

[muffalufagus]

Here is a theory.

Her and Dexter are about to get busted, Dexter bails and she takes the wrap for all of the murders.

[Sixx]

Well they obviously have no valid leads with the Kyle Butler thing and the only one who was in the right direction was Quinn but he's not on that case and stopped looking into it because of LaGuardia and Debra.

The Hispanic cop showed her true colors and used Debra to get higher up and she was no longer party of the story once those Hispanic brothers were dead. Story pretty much ended their with their deaths.

All these things are just little side stories that add something to the main story.

I hate how they handled the Liddy situation. Almost every episode they hype up the next episode like omg something is gonna happen but it usually doesn't happen. Then when something actually happens it all starts and ends so quickly and smoothly without any anticipation.

Also:

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_2-7AdSkZA7I/TDnm8gzqzfI/AAAAAAAAa7g/0sMML0PWZAI/s1600/Breakthrough+With+Tony+Robbins.jpg

Guru Tony Robbins is famous. He even appeared in Shallow Hal.

[Lock Jaw]

The Hispanic cop showed her true colors and used Debra to get higher up and she was no longer party of the story once those Hispanic brothers were dead. Story pretty much ended their with their deaths.

The thing is, I think only one of them died. Unless I am mistaken. They just seemed to have given up the search for the other brother in favor of the barrel girl stuff.

[PapaGeorgio]

meh

[Jimmy Cones]

Just watched the first season yesterday. WTF? Why hasn't anyone talked me into watching this series sooner?

[thedamndest]

She had to die or leave town and it was a pretty safe bet she wasn't going to die after Rita did. It's likely that every season will feel underwhelming after Lithgow. This wasn't bad but I wouldn't be opposed to them tying it up next season for that reason.

[Jura]

I kind of feel like she used him. She shows up and he takes out Boyd Fowler. He treats her with respect and kindness and gives her whatever she wants. She convinces him to help her track down the rest and kill them. Then when they off the last guy she just suddenly can't be around anymore. It's like thanks for the food, clothes, shelter, sex, companionship, murder tips, etc but I gotta go now, bye.

[Jura]

Women are whores.

[PapaGeorgio]

Probably my least favorite season this one. Def should have went the RoboCop route for the finale, would have been epic.

[Sixx]

Well, that season finale was weird.

But I'm totally interested how the story with Quinn's gonna develop.

[G]

was so hoping debra would've found out

[Requiem]

yeah i kinda wish deb woulda found out and next season would be about her and dexter 'dealing with it'.

[G]

it's time something needs to move forward. every time someone finds out, they are always gone next season. there needs to be a permanent fixture in the show, like deb, who finds out

[Sixx]

Deb is the only good choice for someone who finds out.

Others would just turn him in, while she'd be between a rock and a hard place.

[Jura]

I think Quinn might actually keep Dexter's secret if he found out. First of all he's shown to be not so ethical and he is in love with Debra.

[Sixx]

Well, after the last episode that sounds believable.

[Sixx]

Dexter is getting divorced from Deb.

Oh, shit.

[Skippord]

that should make the next season awfully hostile

[Lock Jaw]

Just watched the finale. Overall, still a "good" season. Not a great one though.

I like how Dexter just kills Liddy this season, when in season two when Doakes found out he had this big moral dilemma on if he should kill someone innocent. I mean, Liddy was no saint, but he was no killer as far as we know.

Quinn should totally still be under investigation for all of the phone calls and his defensive nature on the subject. Having the blood on his shoes turn out not to be Liddy's should not have been enough to have him walking free and happy.

[PapaGeorgio]

I would like to think Quinn would still be investigated maybe next season, especially with all the finger prints. He has some explaining to do, but the blood let him breath a little in the investigation I guess.

[DrA]

I was really frustrated when she saw the drop of blood on Quinn's shoe. Just an insult to the viewer's intelligence.

[Cooler Tom Schuler]

I felt like the finale wrapped things up "too much". I don't know if they were really unsure whether they'd get another season or what, but they really didn't leave many open ends unlike previous seasons.

[Hanso Amore]

This season wrapped up just as much as any other. Really only last year left any more of a "hanger"

Season One: How will Deb go post ice truck? Whats Doakes up to?
Two: Can He Be a Family man? How do they go on from doakes?
Three: baby on the way!
Four: Rita is dead on the best cliffhanger in years.
Five: He has picked himself back up. Quinn knows something is up. How will he go forward alone?

[Hanso Amore]

Liddy pulled a knife on him and kidnapped him. DIFFERENT.

Liddy is more like Prados brother.

[Jura]

Who would you guys like to be the next star to be featured in Dexter? I would like to see them go back to a male lead. The seasons centered around a female (season 2 and 5) seems to be lacking something.

[Lock Jaw]

Loved Season 2. I know a lot of people hate it, but I rank it above season 1 and 3.

[Hanso Amore]

Its hard to figure out where I want it to go. I doubt they go the romance/friendship route again. Hes lost Rita and knows she will never come back.

Honestly I hope the main focus is a continued look at Quinn for the murder which ends with Deb finding out Dexter.

Or cody starts developing the Dark Passenger like Dexter did, and Dexter takes the Harry Role.

[Sixx]

Or cody starts developing the Dark Passenger like Dexter did, and Dexter takes the Harry Role.

It would only make sense with Harrison and we'd need like 15 more seasons for that.

[Hanso Amore]

Im ok with that. just make some filler.

[Lock Jaw]

<iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/RsvGslI_KcM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Dexter vs Religion I guess next season.

He looks weird without his usual "scruffy five o'clock shadow" look.

[Jura]

From that trailer I'm guessing he comes across a guy who killed his wife but believes in Jesus and may be in a religious cult. It seems like he could be going after people who are hypocrites or have twisted religious ideals. Edward James Olmos looks like a cult leader here and is most likely the main antagonist of the new season.

[Skippord]

was hoping the tagline would be "THIS FALL WILL DEXTER STAND AND DELIVER?"

[Miotch]

Edward James Olmos is the fucking DUDE.

[dronepool]

I'm upto season 2 ep 6 and I love this show.

[/late]

[DrA]

I'm giving it one more chance after that factory fire of a season last year. Hopefully they don't overreach again and go back to the basics, although it may be too late for that now.

[Mr. Pierre]

Tonight's the night

[dronepool]

The episode leaked and it was awesome.

[Lock Jaw]

I hate it when episodes leak. Gets everywhere, and its such a hassle to clean....

[Jura]

Yeah already saw it a couple of weeks ago. Highlight of that episode is: Kristen Miller finally shows her goodies.

http://www.freewebs.com/fanstuff1/km01.jpg

[Lock Jaw]

Finally had time to watch the season opener. Already seems like it is gonna be a great season.

Other highlight of that episode:
"I don't know what hammer time is. Or how it differs from regular time."

[Sixx]

Really liked the season opener. Especially the double needle shot.

The new episode will be soon available for download, but I'll just wait till tomorrow.

[Jura]

Brea Grant, so hot.

[Buzzkill]

After watching Breaking Bad, I just can't do Dexter anymore. So much cheese.

[Requiem]

I love the cheese. If it took itself more seriously it would lose a lot of its charm and would be a whole different show. Would be more twisted and sinister. Wouldn't like it as much.

[Lock Jaw]

Just caught up with this show as well.

Really enjoying this season so far.

[DrA]

This season is much better than last's. I just hope that

Olmos doesn't turn out to be a hallucination like I've seen a lot of people predict.

[Skippord]

Edward James Olmos is awesome

haven't really seen him in anything but Stand And Deliver until now

[RoXer]

This season is much better than last's. I just hope that

Olmos doesn't turn out to be a hallucination like I've seen a lot of people predict.

fuck you

[RoXer]

was about to post how that didn't make sense but it all adds up. god damnit

jerk

[DrA]

It looks like I gave you quite the Halloween fright.

[Sixx]

Fuckin' hell, that was great.

Did Dexter actually smile a bit at the end?

[Jura]

Looks like his mouth was moving that way. I like how with the appearance of Brother Sam we get teased that Dexter might actually get better only to go crazy in the end while Tom Hank's son seems to be fighting the darkness.

[Mr. Pierre]

This season has been great. I think next week they are closing the book on the "Kyle Butler" story that they never went back to. Based from the preview, it seems that the only people who know who Kyle Butler is will probably be killed.

[Skippord]

was so excited when I saw Brian

love that guy

[thedamndest]

Best episode of the season. It would have made more sense for Brian to show up in season five though after Rita's death instead of the guy Dexter knew for two weeks and was initially thinking of killing.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

I think it was more to do with the fact Dexter was beginning to see a different side to himself through Brother Sam's religion and his words to him about forgiveness, only for Sam's killer to ruin that and force Dexter into a knee-jerk reaction kill as opposed to it actually being about Sam's death. The darkness in Dexter (Brian) completely took over him teporarily.

Like you said though it was a very good episode, and this episode made it seem even more certain to me that Edward James Olmos is in Colin Hanks' head, although the previews for next week make me reconsider slightly. Looks like the main plot is picking up next week big time.

[Jura]

Yeah the comment dexter made about it, "unlike my dark passenger, his can be killed..." makes it sound like the professor is real.

[Lock Jaw]

Don't know why anybody would think the Professor is not real.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Because it mirrors Dexter pretty well when he comes up against somebody so similar to himself. It'd make for good (albeit slightly predictable) storytelling if it is the case. Plus the fact the Professor hasn't interacted with anybody other than Colin Hanks. I can't actually remember if he's had anything to do with the torturing scenes, but in this very last episode Brian stabbed a guy with a pitchfork so it can be a similar situation there. Nobody else has actually acknowledged him.

[FourFifty]

.......the dude isn't real... Mind = Blown

But seriously, it is a fun idea to entertain. I believe he is real, but if he's not, I'll still be shocked.

[Fox]

I'm on the fence a bit about whether the professor is real or not, but mostly leaning toward him being a figment of Colin Hanks' imagination. This season really seems to be centering on dual personalities; darkness and light. I know that the entire show has had a lot to do with these concepts, but this one especially.

Brother Sam went from being a very bad person to a very spiritual, forgiving and kind person. Deb is fighting with the duality of trying to be the boss while also trying to be herself. And Dexter is of course fighting with his dark passenger, and the reappearance of his brother only furthers this. It would make sense that Colin Hanks' character is also fighting with his own dark passenger in the same way.

There's also several other facts. Firstly that no one else ever interacts with the professor - not once. Secondly, none of the victims ever see him, especially the girl who escaped, who was blind folded the entire time. Think about the scene where Colin has sex with the brunette and the next morning he wakes up to find her tied up and gagged in the kitchen. His "other side" could have easily woken up, beaten her, tied her up and gagged her, and then gone back to sleep, only to wake up as "the real him" and "find her" tied up. It'd be a very creepy schizophrenic situation, and very befitting of this series. The professor has also been "missing" for 3 years, so no one has seen him in a very long time - it would make sense that when Colin first started to turn to his dark side that he killed the professor himself. This is also just the kind of plot device that the Dexter writers would use to try and have a big "twist" toward the end of the season when it's revealed that the professor's decomposed body is locked up in the church or something.

Guess we'll see.

[Jura]

I would agree but when they were questioning the girl in the hospital she made it sound like there were actually 2 people there, 1 young and 1 old. But it was a traumatizing event and it could be that he was doing a voice like in the movie Psycho.

[Juan]

Damn. More questions than answers.

Can't wait for the next ep to see how Dexter ends up covered in blood

[Next Big Thing]

Damn! It didn't even dawn on me that the professor could be imaginary until I read this thread. Threw me for a whole 'bother loop.

Is it just me, or is Dex getting kind of careless when it comes to potential victims?

[Lock Jaw]

This past episode is the first where I have thought "Ok... yeah, maybe the professor is imaginary"

[Tazz Dan]

I hadn't thought of that either, but it makes sense. Especially with the photo of the two, and how it ended up smashed in the trash bin when it was hidden behind the toaster.

[Tazz Dan]

Also, that shovel hit wouldn't have knocked a fly out.

[Juan]

Don't know why anybody would think the Professor is not real.

:wavesad:

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Kinda glad they revealed it now rather than dragging it out to be a huge surprise in the last episode, seeing as a lot of people seem to have figured it out pretty early on.

I'm loving Batista and Quinn as partners this season as well.

[Jura]

Son of a bitch.

[FourFifty]

Just caught up... SON OF A BITCH! MIND = BLOWN!

[Lock Jaw]

:wavesad:

When I said that, it wasn't obvious at all. Only been leaning that way the past two episodes or so. Before that, was just some "what if" theory that turned out to be true.

[DrA]

No it wasn't. The entire season was written to make people speculate about it.

[DrA]

They need to do something really appalling to end this season with, so far they've only been going through the motions. They could have done so much more since the end of season four. This might be their last chance to redeem the show.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

I think there's a fairly good chance that Deb might find out about Dexter at the end of this season. At least I think they should go that route with her recent animosity towards him and his distant ways towards her. It would be a bit shit if they just hugged and made up at the end.

[Next Big Thing]

Wasn't it a couple of episodes back where Dexter pondered whether or not Deb would find out about him and he'd have to kill her? They seem to at least be foreshadowing some kind of confrontation.

[Juan]

They need to do something really appalling to end this season with, so far they've only been going through the motions. They could have done so much more since the end of season four. This might be their last chance to redeem the show.

It's fine

[DrA]

The show has taken a hit ever since they switched show runners. They have no idea what to do with the side characters anymore so they stick them into these froced subplots that don't go anywhere while turning them into these one dimensional ethnic drones. At least in previous seasons all of that peripheral stuff worked to develop Dexter's character and put context to the main plot. They've gotten sloppy with details to make everything else fit.

I feel a little bad about complaining because I still watch it every week and it does become increasingly difficult for a show to maintain its edge after being on the air for a few years. It's still enjoyable, but that sense of "tension" in storyline progression isn't as strong as it was in previous seasons. Maybe the end of this season will prove me wrong. I will only talk about the plot for now on, I promise.

[DrA]

I do like the new black guy they have.

[Juan]

Though plans could still change, Showtime entertainment president David Nevins tells EW the working assumption is indeed that Dexter will conclude in the eighth season. Moreover, the creative endgame starts sooner than you think — the remaining episodes of the current sixth season will set into motion events that will resonate through the remainder of the series.

[Mr. Pierre]

:(

[Requiem]

I mean honestly, it had to come some time. I'm glad there will be another 2 after this one though because that says to me that they'll have plenty of time to finish it off however they want.

[Lock Jaw]

Didn't even expect another two seasons. I thought maybe the next season would be the last.

[Skippord]

lol "I AM the Bay Harbor Butcher."

[Requiem]

yeah that was pretty great. liking this season in general. not the strongest, but it is a subject they've never covered with dexter so it is still new ground.

[Jura]

So when are Deb and Dexter gonna do the dirty?

[Juan]

Kinda marked out when I saw the chick from My Boys

[DrA]

yeah that was pretty great. liking this season in general. not the strongest, but it is a subject they've never covered with dexter so it is still new ground.

Actually it is sort of. The Trinity Killer was religious and they chatted about God before Dexter chopped him up.

[Lock Jaw]

So when are Deb and Dexter gonna do the dirty?

I think that is where the angle with her shrink is going.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

hahahaha

[RoXer]

Remember when Dexter used to be "stealthy" about everything he did.

[RoXer]

Like he would take a lot more precautions about every little thing. Last 2 seasons though it's just "here i am, killed the dude, dumped him in the sea, dont care who saw me" in like 3 minutes.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Their homicide department are so useless. A random girl walks in and awkwardly swipes herself into the building in full view of everyone. Dexter saves Deb and she accepts his logic as "Guess I got lucky :-\". Nobody bothers to listen to the anonymous phone call from the last episode and hear Dexters voice.

[PapaGeorgio]

yeah very sloppy. Why the fuck would he leave a video text like that? Clearly, it's plausible that could later be found as evidence. So fucking lame these days.

[Jura]

I keep forgetting about that intern. I wonder what his story is.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

That's genuinely the part I'm most intrigued about this season and I think the reason is that Dexter rarely continues much of the story between seasons, yet this looks like it's gonna be the start of a big arc for next year.

[Juan]

holy shit @ the preview for the season finale. Can't wait

Down side is waiting almost a year for a new season :-\

[DrA]

I watched the episode but the dickhead on Justin.tv kept on playing marijuana bong hit sound effects during the whole thing so I don't really know what happened.

[Lock Jaw]

Was hoping that after Dexter pushed the chick with the poison gas into that room, it would be revealed that some fat dude was in there, eating a sandwich or something, and he'd have this "WTF" look on his face and then die.

[Next Big Thing]

How the hell did the Captain not think Laguerta was the one who ratted him out? Common sense would tell you she had more to gain than Deb.

[Jura]

Was hoping that after Dexter pushed the chick with the poison gas into that room, it would be revealed that some fat dude was in there, eating a sandwich or something, and he'd have this "WTF" look on his face and then die.
And the dude is portrayed by Zach Galifinakis.

[Lock Jaw]

But yeah, the video text thing was like the stupidest thing in the world for a serial killer who is supposed to be meticulous to do.

I mean, he could have had some sort of plausible deniability before if the police caught Travis before he did, and Travis started to say that Dexter was in contact with him. I mean, the dude is crazy and schizo, could easily just say he was hallucinating Dexter. But now he has proof with a video text.

[thedamndest]

Even if it was a dream I think Deb kissing Dexter may have been a jump the shark moment.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Great ending to an otherwise lacklustre season. Next season is set up well both with that ending and with the Lewis stuff.

[Next Big Thing]

Damn. Like the ending a lot. Should be interesting to see where that goes.

Kind of funny that they go the Deb loves Dexter route after Carpenter and Hall divorce.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

This episode was once again filled with plotholes and lazy writing though. Hope they sort all that out for the next season.

Dexter killing that guy on the boat. Did that really even have to be there? And the convenience of nobody else entering the house with the Dexter painting before him is just so lazy, the whole Travis painting Dexters face thing was ridiculous anyway.

[Sixx]

Damn. Like the ending a lot. Should be interesting to see where that goes.

Kind of funny that they go the Deb loves Dexter route after Carpenter and Hall divorce.

Next season: Dexter's got cancer.

[Shisen Kopf]

Sixx-more like Dexter has cancer and decides to cook meth
