I feel new blood was pretty well made. I would rank it after dexter og seasons 1,4,7 and resurrection.

As the title said, why they named New Blood? I think Dexter was coming back to life after being dead from the Hurricane in Miami. So it's a same meaning either ways.

Also resurrection is continue story from New blood, so it's better if they just kept that way and continued?

I recently did a watch through of Dexter for the first time and it did but me a bit, it felt like poor writing/planning. I'm talking about stuff like LaGuerta liking Dexter, Officer Manzon becoming a detective, that female detective becoming sgt over Quinn, Batista spending all season trying to date that female detective and then next season they suddenly break up off screen, the IA plot with Quinn etc.

I’m re watching this shit after like 10 fucking years. Season 5 is fantastic with a lot of shit happening. I was expecting this it to be a pile of shit but fuck it’s awesome. Hopefully in season 6 it’s just as fucking good, but iirc that season was fucking shit as well.

I cant stand Hannah mckay. Season 8 was so good until she came back. I don't understand how dexter is back with her after everything she's done. If I was Debra I would've left and never talked to him again. It's crazy.

Have you ever met a Dexter irl? Or have you only heard the name because of this show and the old Dexter's Lab cartoon?

I started watching the show in august, and honestly I didnt have high hopes, since I have seen other really mainstream TV shows like Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones, and all of them were good but none of them really blew my mind.

The first season was good, but after I finished it, I still didnt think this show would be anything special. Well, I was wrong. I originally planned to watch two episodes a day, but I binged through Season 2 in two days. When Doakes figured out who Dexter was, I couldnt stop myself from watching just one more episode, then another, and suddenly it was 5 am, and I finished season 2. Doakes was my favorite character, and looking back, I think hes the best antagonist in the entire series, so I didnt know what to expect after he died.

Season 3 was mehh, it started off excitingly, and at the beginning I was still really into the idea that Dexter had killed pretty much the worst possible person, since one of his brothers is a district attorney and the other is a sheriff. The Miguel-Dexter dynamic became repetitive for me after a while, but the ending was good once Miguel died, and they finally started doing something with the George King storyline. I dont even need to talk aboutseason 4 its clearly the absolute best season of Dexter. Plot twist at the end was tragic, but I wasnt expecting Ritas death at all, so it worked. Season 5 felt to me like Season 3, only with Lumen instead of Miguel.

I know Season 6 is very controversial, but I really liked it, and I think Travis is a good antagonist. In season 7, I didnt like that a bunch of random new characters showed up and suddenly took center, but the season was exciting, especially the season finale. And then theres season 8… I dont think it was bad, but up until episode 10–11, I felt like the show wasnt making any progress toward wrapping up the story. Afterward, I watched the New Blood of course, the concept is really good that years later Harrison somehow finds Dexter and Kurt Caldwell is also an amazing antagonist in my opinion. Original Sin was a bit weird without the original actors, but I think its a good addition to the universe. And then Resurrection was amazing again, I just finished it and I cant wait for Season 2. Im already planning to read the books as well. And now I dont understand people on tiktok saying Dexter is mid, because this show is something else.

Im curious

Quinn is coming back so I'd love to hear some theories on his return! Marking Quinn as X because it won't let me post otherwise lmao
