DEXTER May End On Its Eighth Season; Conclusive Storyline To Start This Season

agreed ^^ ...this is probably my most favorite premium channel show.

awwwwwww man!! this is my favorite show! womp womp!!

I use to love this show, but it's been going down-hill the last two years. The dialogue is really chessey, the dead professor was obvious from the beginning, and Colin Hanks acting is pretty bad.

All I have to say is you have to look at it this way. I for one have enjoyed all 6 seasons because they all are going at dexter from something new, Be it yes my favorite seasons were 1,2 & 4. Trinity was insane. Great season. But when you think of each season, like season 1 for example we are finding out who he is how he got to be like he is but never anything before he got adopted which he never gave much thought about, so basically he ends up finding out through his brother that he witnessed his mother getting murdered, and finding out he has a blood brother. kinda would affect you wouldn't it if you were in his shoes doing what he does? Then basically having to kill his own brother for safety of his non related sister, and because he needs to be put down. Now in season 2 they throw at him the first rule of the code that he has lived by for years "don't get caught" and also trying to get "clean" and not kill which he has never had to face, then season 3 they give him a friend which harry told him he can't have close friends because it will end badly for him, which it does and he has to kill his first best friend. and then finds out he is going to be a father, thats a smack in the face for a serial killer. So he gets married. Season 4, he is hit with trying to be a husband and father which he is not used to when Trinity strikes and Deb and Lundy get shot and Dex really wants him on his table, but since he is not used to having a family and no alone time, Rita starts to get naggy, so Dex holds off killing Trinity in hopes he can learn to keep his family happy and still do what he does instead of kill him which he thought was best at the time. He wanted to save his family. Then clearly things get out of control and he gets to the point where he needs to protect his family, and tries but couldn't save his wife. Season 5, he literally can't think straight is thinking about his kill room supplies and kill tools etc instead of thinking of Rita's funeral, clearly in shock probably for the first time in his life, and bounces cause he thinks since he got their mother killed they are better off with out him. Finally he comes to his senses after beating a guy to death, and goes to the funeral, he doesn't say it in eulogy but in his head he said how he loved her. And he knows he can't fix it or get her back and goes back to killing but feels no need for it really, until he finds lumen, which i don't care what anyone says was awesome. He finds her and since he cant get revenge for rita we see dexter the entire season sticking his neck out for some one who went through a very traumatic thing happen to them like he did when he was 3 years old. Just like when he sticks up for Astors friend and kicks the crap out of the dad, and Harry tells him how he can't believe he put someone before him self. Thats what this season was about, and eventually thinking he found a women that he could share his life with, with no secrets. Which ofcourse didn't happen. And then season 6. Dexter gets hit with religion, something he spoke of in the past how he doesn't believe in god, now finding out there is a killer that kills because of god, making him start to wonder a little bit. I had no problem with Colin Hanks, he was nerdy, religious and a psycho at the same time. how else would he act all big and tough when he is supposed to be humble before god? but anyways Dexter is hit with religion and his son growing up and what he wants to pass on to him. And mainly this season was about dexter having a more open mind to what and how people believe in things and wanting to be a better father to harrison which we have never heard him say before. Thats what All 6 season of dexter have been about, lets put him in this situation and see how he handles it. he never liked religion so lets throw a religious killer at him. But the reason since after season 4 there was so much extra filler that is most likely why no one liked the last 2 seasons is because the writers didn't know when to basically have deb find out which we knew was going to happen. came close in season 5, a lot of filler in season 5, and 6 like the trip to nebraska with brian to see jonah, filler episodes, all shows have them. But now that the cats out of the bag, and deb knows the writers will do it up proper. but here is my big theory about Deb, the therapist she is seeing is on La Guerta's side to make deb just end up losing her mind to the point of not being able to be Lt. just like how the therapist first told deb that she was probably in love with dex and deb flipped out at the thought of it that its her brother even though not biologically, and then she has a dream, and another session to where clearly now the therapist has done her job and gotten deb to feel like she is in love with dexter. and on the job side la guerta is saying to focus on the job, because she has lost such and such relationship over it that blah blah, basically trying to be cool with deb and telling her her job comes first when the therapist is telling deb to also let out her feelings to dexter which could blow up hugely, but now deb sees her brother murder someone. she thinks she is in love with him. how much does dexter tell her? does she realize enough to put the pieces together he was the bay harbor butcher? i don't think she will of course take him down, but it should be interesting. and as for louis, those that keep saying he is going to be the serial killer next season, sorry he is not, it was said by the writers. they haven't really figured out 100% his place yet. but i think he was brians son from along time ago that brian abandoned or never knew about and louis knows dexter is his uncle and who he is. i just hope at the end of the series dexter is not in prison or dead, or they better not pull off that stupid soprano ending type crap. they need to end it with closure and imo on a good note, after all dexter is the good guy.
