DEXTER: ORIGINAL SIN Premiere Reveals How SPOILER Returns Ahead Of Next Summer's DEXTER: RESURRECTION

Dexter: New Blood finally revealed what became of Dexter Morgan following Dexter's unsatisfying series finale as the serial killer returned to his old murderous ways. However, he had to balance that with being reunited with his now-teenage son, Harrison. 

While it initially appeared that Harrison had the same darkness within him as his father, they were simply not the same. Dexter determined that, for his son to be normal, he had to kill him. Shot in the heart, Dexter died as Harrison left town (leaving Dex's former flame, Angela, to take responsibility). 

Trailers for new prequel series Dexter: Original Sn have shown Dexter somehow alive and in the hospital but how did he manage to survive his fatal wound?

Well, Harrison's aim might have been a little off because Dexter is taken to the ER and, while he initially has no pulse, doctors put pressure on the wound and bring him back by using defibrillator paddles. 

"Ah, a beating heart. I'll take it," we hear his inner monologue say. "It really is like they say. Your life flashes before your eyes." With that, we revisit Dexter's youth, though it's likely we'll pick up with the serial killer again as this series progresses. 

While Dexter: New Blood originally looked like the end of this character's story, Dexter: Resurrection will be released next June. A true sequel to the previous revival series, we'll either see Dex placed behind bars or, more likely, will follow him on a new killing spree after he escapes.

Heck, perhaps he'll clear his name! Either way, we hope to see more familiar faces from Dexter given how satisfying it was to see Angel Batista join the dots about Dex's true nature in New Blood

Set in 1991 Miami, Dexter: Original Sin follows Dexter (Patrick Gibson) as he transitions from student to avenging serial killer. When his bloodthirsty urges can’t be ignored any longer, Dexter must learn to channel his inner darkness.

With the guidance of his father, Harry (Christian Slater), he adopts a Code designed to help him find and kill people who deserve to be eliminated from society without getting on law enforcement’s radar. This is a particular challenge for young Dexter as he begins a forensics internship at the Miami Metro Police Department.   

Dexter: Original Sin also stars Molly Brown, Christina Milian, James Martinez, Alex Shimizu, Reno Wilson, special guest star Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Patrick Dempsey. As noted, Michael C. Hall returns to voice the iconic inner monologue in Dexter Morgan's head.   

What did you think about Dexter's return in the premiere?

I thought the ending was good aside from having his son 'kill' him to escape being him...he still needed to murder to not be a murderer? Eh whatever...but i liked that Dexter had an ending...but they seem to be undoing that.... urgh.

He could just put on a Captain Kirk rubber mask at this point.

@BillyBatson1000 - would be interesting to see a Dexter show out of the view of another protagonist trying to catch him.

@Blergh - Do you think they could spin that for more than one season, tho? None of the other characters that got close to catching him have lasted long.

So....do you think that this should be headlined with SPOILER in the title.....or have you guys totally abandoned that practice since I've been away @natebest

@TyrantBossMedia - unless you were unaware that the two series existed prior to that headline it isn’t really spoiler territory.

@FrankenDad - Well, Telling us that Dexter survived and will return. Yeah, I would consider that a pretty big spoiler.

@TyrantBossMedia - fair enough. The info was out far before today so wasn’t a spoiler for many, but sucks you had it ruined. 🤷‍♂️

Just glad we get more Dexter after that finale. Was especially disappointing because Dexter and Bautista had no interaction whatsoever.

Just like The Joker 2, this show should have been left alone.

Executives at high levels don't care as long as the money is coming in.. Looking at you Marvel and Disney.

Nolanite out

To me, the books are the definitive version of Dexter, which is a pretty different character than the version in the show. It's got a more supernatural and comedy slant to the tales, and the twist and turns in the books feel more out of left field in a delicious way.

But besides the Jeff Lindsay books, I personally love the first 4 seasons of Dexter, then my personal head canon is that the show ends at season 4 with Dexter being captured for Rita's murder, and the rest of the show is simply Dexter's fantasy of what he wish had happened after that day while he is locked away in prison, because seasons 5-8 felt like [frick]ing fever dreams they were so terrible, and New Blood is a continuation of that fantasy, even pretending to reunite with his long lost son. And him being shot by his son in the heart was symbolic for the end of his fantasy in prison. And whatever would come after would be him essentially working through his past with a therapist in prison after stopping his fantasies and finally embracing the truth of his rehabilitation in prison. Then as a "reformed" old man, Dexter is released and tries to find some type of existence in the outside world again. But eventually gets pulled back into playing with his dark passenger.
