Just a heads up so you don't forget. I'm interested to see if they can still make it very entertaining or if they've exhausted all of their options.
 
I just started watching Dexter from the beginning. It's been a hard season for me to stay interested in. I've watched 4 episodes of season 1. Please tell me it gets better.

Dexter is a show where I often wonder why I watch it. But then they have Season 4 and I understand.
 
The last season of Dexter sucked IMO. But hey, maybe this will be a better season. I just wasn't a fan of Julia Stiles. Never have been.
 
Dexter and Breaking Bad are very similar shows...and two of my favorite!

I hope they kill off dexters sister though, shes unbearable to watch

I had that feeling trying to watching the earlier seasons. I started at Season 4 which got me hooked, everyone episode was solid.
Season 5 was good, not great IMO. interested to see what they do now.

Agree completely. I'm was really disappointed that she made it through the entire season. I kept hoping she'd get wacked in the worst way. I can't stand her face. Her stupid, stupid face. I hope somebody lost their job over that casting.
 
If you don't like Julia Stiles, and you want to watch a very bizarre movie, check out Edmond. Seriously creepy.


Dexter kind of lost it last season. Season 4 was some of the best TV I have ever watched, other than the writers having ZERO clue how to write parts for children (which means they did a good job writing them out...sorry, minor spoiler).

For me they go like this:

Season 1 - ok, I accepted they were getting into the series and the premise was enough to carry the season
Season 2 - worse than 1 IMO, but some episodes were gripping. Enough to keep me interested.
Season 3 - picking up steam. Some well-known actors start joining the group and it gets very tense.
Season 4 - great. Best season of the series. I can watch it over and over.
Season 5 - disjointed garbage. Plot lines come and go like drunken one-night stands when you wake up to find out she is 400 lbs and has a beard. Worst last episode of a season I think I have ever seen.
Season 6 - ? who knows. I have hopes they can get back to something solid to watch. I think there is a lot to do in the world they have created but the writers seem to have lost their edge. Will watch for now.
 
I watch Dexter, have seen every episode, and look forward to it. But it's a delicious treat. That's it imo. It's not particularly "great television" as some have thrown out there. IMO of course.
