A few days ago was the Dexter season finale. With two more seasons left in the series, it looks like they are leaving some loose ends. Normally, all your questions are answered by the end of the season but this year we are still left with some questions. If you haven't watch it yet, beware there are spoliers!
What is going on with Deb? I think it is a bit extreme that she is in love with her brother.... ew? It's also weird that the actors were married in real life, now they are divorced, and only now are they required to kiss on screen. She needs to get it together because it is really weird.
It was somewhat predictable that Deb would walk in on Dexter doing a kill. Frankly, Dexter has become a bit reckless with his kills. He doesn't plan like he used to and sometimes just kills people for sport. Deb was bound to find out about Dexter's habit eventually. I am excited to see how she handles it. Likely she will mentally unravel (since she is halfway there anyway!).
So what is up with this intern? He is obsessed with murderers, the ice truck killer, and Dexter? Is he our next villain? I think his storyline is coming up next...
Another thing without a complete storyline was Quinn. He was pretty much a mess this whole season but we don't really know what happens to him. I guess we will have to wait until next season to see if he has pulled himself together or not.
Overall I think Dexter is losing some of it's original flare. Dexter used to be so meticulous with his kills. So carefully researched and planned. Now he just kills random immigrants and strangles people on the beach without any thinking. I think he needs to get back to his old ways and start following the rules again. And Deb... needs to get her head back on. Seriously.
What did you think of this season of Dexter? Will you watch the next? Share your thoughts below.

If adding an extra hour in the day will give me time to blog... then so be it.
Very good points indeed. I can't help but say that I was extremely disappointed to find that Gellar was "dead" all along. I think he had the potential to be among one of the most calculating and evil villains in the series. I found him much more creepier than Liberty. It was also really great to see E.James Olmos in this role.
ReplyDeleteI will definitely watch the next, but I can't help but feel it's lost some steam with me. I also find his son to be a huge distraction to his "flow" and having to see Dex buy diapers and deal with his baby-sitter diminishes his character.
totally jumped the shark. The concept is getting old, so we have to resort to things like Deb falling in love with Dex, her finally catching him red-handed. So what, now they're going to be the Dynamic Vendetta Duo? What's next? Oliver?
ReplyDeleteThe writers need to get back what worked with Dexter in the beginning, and take this thing out with a bang. But now that Deb's caught him, I think it's a little late.
I don't know where they plan on taking it, but I've invested this much already so I'll be there until the end!
