Dexter

[Rylo]

This season looks like it is going to be good as fuck.

 

[Aso]

Yeah that episode was crazy. I expected everything that happened in that episode to maybe happen over 3 and just drag on so I thought it was a good episode and I'm very excited for this season. Season 2 is my favorite just because it felt like there was more at stake so this season seems similar.

Deb is already fully unbearable.

Gonna be a rough one.

The Deb hate continues to rage on. :wave:

 

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

She's a brutal character portrayed by an actress that is like a visual rendition of nails on a chalk board.

The fact that this season will have her at her absolute worst as a featured character along with Dexter in his own scenes. It'll basically make all of the scenes unbearable.

So fast forward those scenes or don't watch? Dunno what to tell you...it's not like she hasn't been one of the main characters for the last seven seasons.

She's actually been a supporting character with her own little side story.

Now, she is being thrust into the main story.

It has become an awful show...but I guess I've committed. I watched Entourage for like 5 seasons simply because I started it despite it being the worst show on TV.

So this season revolves around Deb's moral tug of war. It can't be any worse than the last two dreadful seasons.

First ep was ok, but i'm not chomping at the bit to see next week.

When you really break down Dexter, you are talking two good seasons, one great epic season, two dreaful seasons, and one meh season.

Having only seen the first two seasons, which ones are these?

 

[Warner2BruceTD]

S1 - very good
S2 - very good
S3 - meh
S4 - epic. show peaked. can't be topped.
S5 - shit. total shit. Zzzzzzzzzz
S6 - the dirt fucking worst, beyond terrible

I hated the Julia Styles episodes the most.

I don't plan on watching every season of the show, would it be worth it to skip Season 3 all together and watch Season 4?

 

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Watch Seasons 1-4 and then stop.

Nothing inherently wrong with S3, it just didn't work for me like 1, 2, or 4. I would watch it because you might lose some things that you'll need for 4.

I found Jimmy Smits to be pretty unbearable during S3. He over acted and the storyline was shitty.

Then came Julia Styles & Colin Hanks S5 & S6, which made Smits look like Marlon Brando.

 

[Aso]

The last two seasons definitely lacked and were not where Dexter should have been. I enjoyed season 3 more than most people and I personally enjoyed season 2 more than 4. 2 was my favorite easily. I'm not known for being a movie/tv show critic though, so yeah.

 

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

The show Dexter has driven off course a few times...Season 3 is the first time. In retrospect, killing off Doakes wasn't good for business. It basically gave them shit to work with in Season 3. Season 4 is an aberration, seemingly, with season 5 + 6 more like 3 than anything else. They lucked into the epicness of John Lithgow. If it were anyone else in the role of Trinity, perhaps, 4 is similar to that of 3, 5, 6 because the character ends up being hokey like Smits and Styles.

I actually liked the idea of what Colin Hanks was presenting, I just think the writing failed him. The story was good, but not executed properly.

With the kicker at the end of Season 6, it basically leaves Dexter in the hands of its worst character to drag it to watchability.

Dexter has basically lost its soul. It lost its grit. Even the main character is a far cry from what it used to be. Now, its basically Michael C Hall playing Michael C Hall instead of this character, Dexter.

If Dexter plunges the knife into the chest of Deb this season, I take back every bad thing i've ever said about the show the last couple of years.

 

[SethMode]

Why can't Showtime keep a show going? Every show I like on that station goes to poop.

Oh c'mon...this show was just AWESOME throughout!

What if she plunges the knife into him?
