Yeah, but you've obviously never raised a child?

Well.. I haven't either, but believe me, it takes a lot of work from both parents, especially those first years. And we're not seeing her taking care of the kid, cos that's not what we wanna see

She's still obviously taking care of it.

Dexter and Rita having a kid is... just the natural thing to do, I think. Dexter uses him as yet another part of his cover (while clearly loving him in some way), and Rita... Ok, I have no idea about Rita, there could be a million reasons

But it makes for some interesting change in a show that could've become pretty repetitive otherwise.

Oh I agree, her character is definitely playing a pivotal role in Dexter's life and is important to the story. I just think she is going to be a big problem for him in the road ahead. And I say if he needs to take her out, by all means let the dark passenger drive...

I'm not sure he'd do that, though

He used to strictly follow his "survival"-code, but to me it seems like protecting his family (and thereby himself) is what's most important to him now

But of course, that COULD change

Was that recent? When it comes to TV-shows I have a really bad memory, just because I follow a LOT of shows.

So, sorry, no idea what you're speaking of

John Lithgow is so darn good. It's so nerve wrecking to see how close Dexter is getting to his target.

I hope the writers thought about it and will reference it... That would look really good

That was a fantastic season and ensured the next one will be drastically different. All the slip-ups and build-up had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. Few thoughts tho;

Deb now knows who Dexter's biological mother is and that the Ice Truck Killer was Dexter's brother. When Deb told Dexter all of this after the Trinity house raid Dexter said something like, "That's all she knows?"

My memory of season 1 is a bit foggy...so I'm wondering what else Dexter thought Deb knew about the whole Laura/Brian Moser thing. Besides thinking that maybe Dexter is a "monster" like his brother Brian, what is Dexter worried about Deb finding? Like I said, I'm drawing a blank and it's driving me crazy.

poiuytre · 12-14-2009, 05:18 PM

Oh yeah, I forgot all about that. It confused me at the time too.

He thought she would know that he is a serial killer like Brian...

This season was great. I cannot believe the ending, I was thinking she might be home but I had no idea it was going to end like that. Too bad I have to wait another year to find out what happens next...

Oh, see I thought there was some way Deb could figure out Dexter knew all this long ago and that he hid it from her. Also the fact that he killed his brother Brian. But yeah she'll probably keep a close eye on him now because she's aware of his past. If she finds that half shredded picture of Laura Moser in Dexter's office she'll be very suspicious.

Dexter's got a lot of problems now. Where wwas Dexter the day Rita was killed? How does he know Trinity's family and why do they know him as Kyle Butler? Perhaps footage from the station will reveal Trinity and Dexter talking to each other. Quinn has been all over Dexter. He made a comment about "Chasing Tail" early in the episode. Easier to chase tail without a wife. Add a worried Deb and the deck is stacked against Dexter next season. Will he get pinned for the one murder he didn't commit?

The season has begun! The first episode was great... Anyone got any ideas of what will happen?

here is the trailer. its the beginning of the end for Dex!
dexter usually starts in the fall, but this year it comes on early, June 30th.. for the final season.
Its time to bring this thread back up.
The writers won't be holding anything back.
There will probably be a cliffhanger inbetween every episode until the series finale.
i know Dexter is more popular than ever, but its probably best that an end for it all is written before it got cancelled.

Spoiler:

Is it possible Dex could die this season?
He does meet his own code now.

All the slip-ups and build-up had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. Few thoughts tho; Spoiler: - Arthur's final speech sounds completely different if you know what he had done to Dexter before he tried to skip town. - Harry is appearing more and more to be Dexter's Dark Passenger rather than a memory of his father. This has been doing on for a while now, but it's becoming increasingly obvious. He doesn't seem to want to share Dexter with anyone else and only inspires to kill. Makes me think maybe next season maybe Rita will come back in a similar role, playing Dexter's humanity and consciousness. __________________ "That girl...she said that the sky frightened her.
