With it on Netflix now. I've finally started to watch it.

Got to say. Love how non chalant and oblivious Dexter is to social stuff 😂.

In the UK it's on.

So I just finished the original series and after I finish a show I always check the IMDB scores, see which was the best and worst rated episodes, etc. And I saw that the finale got a 4.7, which was weird because I really liked the ending. So what are your thoughts on the finale and if you also liked it, why do you think others hated it?

I just finished my 11th rewatch (including New Blood, which I’ve watched about 3 times). I’ve been looking for what to watch now, how do you follow up Dexter?? I can’t find a good enough show so I decided to just start Dexter all over again…again.

I am rewatching Dexter and did a double take in Season 2 ep 12 when Deb refers to a new wool winter cap as a tuque. I thought nothing of it, but then was "what the hell? Don't only us Canadians call a winter cap a tuque? I recall when I missed a connecting flight and was stuck in Chicago for the day in the winter and it was freezing. I went into Macy's and asked the menswear guy where I could find a tuque and he looked at me blankly. When I said a wool winter cap he said "oh, you mean a beenie!"

I was under the impression that no one in the states, especially as far south as Florida would use a term that originates from an old French Canadian loan word.

Do many Americans use the term tuque? I am guessing that maybe one of the writers may have been Canadian, or spent time here.

Weird, eh?

My wife and I finished new blood last night and wow I cried pretty hard at the ending of new blood. You guys were all right about it getting better because wow I actually really enjoyed it and loved Harrison and dexters relationship It was so sweet and I just wanted them to live happily ever after but this is dexter and that can never happen sadly. When Harrison was about to shoot dexter and all the flashes of people he has technically killed by being what he is hit me right in the feels because in the end though dexter killed lots of bad people and followed the code he did sadly get Deb, Rita, Lundy, doaks and many others killed because of his urges. Man when Harrison pulled the trigger and dexter went down I cried because this show and this series was just so damn amazing it was brilliant though I wish they would have done something different with how Angela found out he was the bhb which I discussed with my wife angel definitely should have played a bigger role in my opinion. Also and finally I wish when dexter was in the cell and Deb was talking to him I wish Brian and harry would have appeared and they would have started talking to him brain would tell him he should just kill them and escape what does it matter then harry would come in and tell dex he should have followed the code better or something like that then Deb would appear and say what she said then dexter screams enough! Well this post has gone on too long I’m sorry lol to end this off I loved this series and this was a perfect ending to dexters story though I didn’t want him to die but all fathers want there sons to be better than them and Harrison is and dexter knew that it was brilliant that is all 😭

Just incase nobody knows its on there ✨️

So we all know that Dexter is on Netflix now. But sadly it isn’t for the USA. If you really want to go through the easy work, here is a how too

1. Use a VPN on your phone, I don’t want to pay for one so I use Windscribe, anything works
2. Put the location to the UK
3. Open Netflix and go to Dexter
4. Download the episode
5. Once done, close the app and turn off WiFi and cell
6. Open Netflix and watch through downloads

(You need to turn off WiFi and cell because then Netflix knows like where you are,) I did this on IPhone, this would be nice if you are like on a plane and want to watch Dexter or on the go and the service you use don’t let you download it anymore (cough cough prime) If you have a PC you can use a vpn but you won’t be able to download This is good if you don’t want to waste a lot of VPN data by watching Dexter.

A lot of plot holes plot armors half assed storytelling etc. If a teenager wattpad writer would have written this show it wouldn’t have gotten any worse than this. Entirety of this show revolves around how dexter is god tier smart (!) and the so called elite miami metro team is too stupid to even investigate the brian moser’s real family. Story is there Michael C. Hall is an incredible actor but the writing isn’t there bro. I really feel offended by all these low iq writing and investing my time to get over with this show lmao i am really angry the fact that this show is written by bunch of fucking idiots who think they are smart lol. Unbelievable. I felt the same level of regret after watching the game of thrones ending.

i’ve searched the thread, i know it’s a thing but holy balllssss how did i never see that

I’ve run into a little problem. Dexter recently came to Netflix where I live. I decided to go back and watch some episodes I really like. One of them is “Dex, Lies and Videotape”. Once the episode was over it autoplayed and took me to the next episode. The episode just has a static noise throughout, I cannot hear the dialogue, music or anything. The episode afterwards has the same issue. Ive checked other devices and everything. 2x09 works just fine but those two don't.

Rita’s story line in general, but just watched the episode & a few after she found out she was pregnant. So understanding & loving throughout the series’. She really did deserve so much better :(

Also the scene with her dealing with the hotel ‘Karen’ is my fave 🤣

Hey guys. I'll be visiting Miami soon and I would like to see some Dexter related sights.

Do you have any recommendation?

Lundy knew Dexter was a serial killer? Not that he was necessarily the Bay Harbour Butcher but that there was something off with him.

First kill is the guy who does stuff to you in the swamp. If you know you know.

I’m on season 2 episode 1 and Dexter has failed to kill 2 people this episode, they’ve just found the trash bags in the ocean/river. The question is, why does he still want to kill? He’s wanted to be normal his whole life and now he’s becoming more normal than ever, so why is he still trying to kill?

when lila finds doakes and he thinks she's going to release him...

"what are you, his fucken accomplice?"

"i'm his soulmate."

the most exhausted look possible

that scene was perfect. doakes was perfect. lila was perfect. if anything about that season had been different, we would not have gotten this chef's kiss moment.

edit: the way this season ends, it feels like they may have only had a 2 season contract and didn't plan on for sure having further seasons.

I know Miguel was the main adversary in this season, but I think they tried to build the skinner as a legit villain/threat. I just thought he was a whip armed geek. I know they built his background and everything, but I just didn’t buy him as a threat. I really liked this season a lot though, probably one of my favorites.

Curious if the book remain vaguely consistent, or if the quality notably drops at some point. Going to buy book 3 regardless, I've really enjoyed Dearly Devoted Dexter so far.

Currently on the 2nd book, and it seems that Dr. Danco might just be the single most twisted and horrifying villain in all of Dexter lore. What he puts his victims through is more fucked than any other villain I can think of in the Dexter universe. Would his full M.O just be too gruesome to ever (hypothetically) be shown on television? The Ice Truck Killer's M.O was similar, but even then it pales in comparison to Dr. Danco's full ritual, and I can't fathom them showing the "yodeling potato" on a network TV show.

I get with grief there is anger but Astor telling Dexter she didn't want to live with him anymore broke my heart. It's very tough to watch.

I also noticed when Astor told him she wished he didn't exist and it was just her, Cody and Harrison, I immediately thought that if Dexter never existed or was in the picture, Harrison wouldn't exist. He's the father of your little brother.

It was most likely for plot convenience because Dexter didn't have the freedom to do what he does as much with 3 kids but I'd rather have the grandparents themselves ask Dexter if they could take in Astor and Cody so Dexter wasn't overwhelmed, instead of Astor saying she hates him and wants to leave.

The show is VERY loosely based on the books! I see so many posts and comments about how season one is heavily based on the books. The books would not be good translated heavily. Dexter had no empathy, no connection and made the first book a struggle to get into. Also LaGuerta and Deb die, Brian lives and so much other stuff was changed.

How would Dexter Morgan interact with following characters from different tv shows

1. Raylan Givens (From Justified)
2. Britta Perry (From Community)
3. Robin Scherbatsky (From How I Met Your Mother)
4. Raymond Reddington (From The Blacklist)
5. Louis Litt (From Suits)
6. Ray Donovan (From Ray Donovan)
7. Hank Moody (From Californication)
8. Vinny Chase (From Entourage)
9. Dwight Schrute (From The Office)
10. Frasier Crane (From Frasier)

After rewatches, I would consider Brian sympathetic after learning about his backstory and that, in a twisted way, he does care a bit about Dexter.

I recently had brain surgery to successfully, thankfully remove 100% of a “small”, grape-sized benign tumor near my brain stem. I’m doing great, but I have been recovering in bed. I have been rewatching Dexter the past few weeks, sometimes just listening when my eyes are tired. The season 8 antagonist was a trip lol. I really enjoy this show. So many great characters. I have to say season 4 may be my favorite although it’s very hard not to go with season 1. I think Arthur is such a well-written character played by an excellent actor and such a formidable opponent for Dexter. I also really like Lundy’s character in season 2 and 4. I swear he knew about Dexter in a similar way that it appears Matthews also does. The last episode of season 4 breaks your heart though. I loved Rita. She was an angel.

She blames Debra for her choices on men, telling her she needs to be responsible for the bad things happened to her and get it together. (And fucking magically Debra “takes control” as per the therapist’s suggestion) Then she suggests to Debra it’s okay to have romantic feelings for a family, as long as there is no biological relation. WTF? This therapist puts an idea in Debra and Debra just run with it. Either this is blatantly lazy or inconsiderate writing.

I’m rewatching it after the show first aired, I was a lot younger then and was not as skeptical or as “seasoned” one might say. Seriously WTF.

just restarting new blood, only 23 minutes in but not knowing what he’s really thinking is driving me cray
