Hah, this is an astute observation.

I'm still pretty sure it's going to happen, sleeping with Deb is a surefire way to end up dead.

Rudy/Brian/The Ice Truck Killer - Killed by Dexter
Anton- Skinned (I forgot if he got killed or he just stormed off)
Lundy-Shot and killed by Trinity's Daughter

Plus you could count that one boy that she got friendly with to try to pinpoint The Skinner was also killed too. So now that Quinn and Deb did the Horizontal Bop means that Quinn is going to suspect Dexter has something wrong with him, get too close and end up dead. I just hope Dexter ends up killing him then Julia Styles, hopefully they don't go the Lila route with her.

He won't need to kill Quinn. It's already been established that Quinn does shit like pocket money, and Dexter knows about it. Dex could discredit him instead of just wasting him. Besides, Dex still has the code (redneck murder aside). I doubt he'd be willing to kill Quinn unless he found out about some kind of heinous misdeeds on Quinn's part.

Up to a point, yes. The 911 call certainly wasn't anything akin to "normal."

I'm not sure what anyone was expecting, here. A new villain? The start of some grand new game? There's too much to address for that to happen in a season premiere. Was it my favorite episode of all time? No, but it's not even close to being a bad one.

That's what I was thinking too.

It dragged a little, and there were definitely scenes that I didn't need to see, but it wasn't too shabby at all. Though I kind of do hope this is the final season.

Really? I hope they keep doing it as long as the quality remains. It's too early to tell if this season is gonna be great, bad, mediocre, whatever.

I tell you one thing, though: I hope they don't try and redeem the character or anything in the finale. That would be spectacularly lame.

Episode 2 thoughts everyone....?

Spoilers ahead.

Kids going to live with the grandparents, seen that one coming a mile down the road.

Quinn nagging Deb for pussy.. eh.. Move on man.. You're on the border of being obsessed with her brother, sure that's not scoring points.

The road kill.. ahmm.. killer..? He'll die next episode. But the way this one ended with Dexter unsure of his feelings confirming him meeting the code.. Understandable but I didnt like how it ended the show with it.. Didnt have a true cliff hanger feeling, for me anyway.

The FBI interview with Dexter. Less than I expected.. But had my heart racing for a few moments at the beginning.

Looks like the road kill killer is gonna get off a tranquilizer dart on Dex as he needles him. That should be interesting. Both of them laying on the ground. Which one of our dynamic duo will wake up first? Will Quinn get the drawers for a second time? Tune in next week to see!

HeartlessNinny · Oct 4, 2010

I actually really liked the second episode. I felt like they were getting back to what Dexter is all about. I'm still a bit leery of how they're trying to develop his character (it's odd to see a sociopath upset at losing the kids), but overall, it was good fun if you ask me.

Yesterdays episode was much more intense, finally picking up but Dexter is getting sloppy....

terry.330 · Oct 11, 2010

Fuck the roadkill guy andJulia Styles, where the hell is Peter Weller?

The opening of last season with Lithgow in the bathroom was awesome and I expect no less from Weller.

Kim Kaphwan · Oct 11, 2010

This season is reminding me of the Jimmy Smitts season.

Average Joe · Oct 26, 2010

just saw a glimmer of hope in last nights episode in an otherwise boring season in the form of Peter Weller

Man, I miss the days where I was rabid for the next Dexter episode. Now they sit on the DVR and I can barely bring myself to watch them.

Someone wake me up if he chops Quinn into little pieces.

Comrade Porn King Mikhail · Oct 26, 2010

With Breaking Bad on hiatus, this is the only premium show I still watch on a weekly basis. Everything else that seems promising (like The Event) is just getting pushed back into the Netflix queue.

Can't wait for Walking Dead though. And although this season is definitely slow, it's still better than 90% of TV out there. I just wish they'd stop with Deb being the office mattress, her character development is nil.

Definitely. Weller is the man.

I hope they get rid of Julia Stiles soon. She's such a horrible actress and we certainly don't need another Jimmy Smits story.

Retro2DGamer · Nov 5, 2010

Even if the new season hasn't been as good as the older ones, it's impressive that's it's maintained the quality that it has up to this point. The further into a series, the harder it is to keep the bar high.

HeartlessNinny · Nov 6, 2010

Predictions: Weller winds up on Dex's table. At some point, he fucks Julia Stiles, who survives the season and goes home in the end. Quinn... I dunno what they're gonna do with that guy. Surely they won't waste him like Doakes?

Eric · Nov 6, 2010

Peter Weller is coming across as such a shit actor. Maybe his lines are just bad ("Fuck with the bull.....you'l get.....the hoooorrnnnnss...") or maybe the directing is to blame, but it's just laughable in the little bit of screen time he's gotten.

Doesn't help that John Lithgow was excellent and Jimmy Smits is also a much better actor.

PS: I keep typing John Lithgrow, which would be an awesome porn name.

These are the main story lines right now:

The San Muerte still on the loose
Quinn and Deb in a serious relationship
the irish baby sitter
Lumen trying to kill people half assed
some sex slave ring
Quinn's buddy investigating Dexter

Minor points: Laguerta trying to get a promotion to captain, the two kids leaving Dex to live with their grandparents, Arthur Mitchell's family in witness protection.

This season seems like a big mess. I don't remember things being this complicated, but at least it's better than some tree cutter appearing out of nowhere to skin people.

Domino-chan · Nov 6, 2010

There are a couple of parallels between this season and Six Feet Under. Dexter in a funeral home...

Spoiler:

Eric · Nov 6, 2010

Reminds me of a story someone had of flipping channels, seeing Six Feet Under on and thinking "Oh hey, Dexter is on."

Shortly followed by "Hey wait, what's Dexter doing with Doakes? Oh no. Oh god. What did I miss?"

Retro2DGamer · Nov 6, 2010

That's Peter Weller? O_O Didn't even recognize him. Good to see him in the show though.

Dexter's instance of nearly getting caught in the latest episode is, without spoiling anyting, taking it a bit far.

Yeah, I don't disagree. I have to say, I still like it anyway... But this is shaping up to be a really sub-par season.

And why do they think we give a fuck about Batista and Laguerta? That has got to be the most worthless plot point in any show ever.

Retro2DGamer · Nov 8, 2010

Anyone watch last night? I won't be able to see it until Thursday.

Domino-chan · Nov 8, 2010

Yeah, I managed to catch it today.

Spoiler:

HeartlessNinny · Nov 9, 2010

I think last episode confirmed it for me. wasabi is dead-on: this season is just too all over the place. There's way too much going on, and most of it is of little consequence to the main story. Worse yet, most of it is boring.

I don't mind Lumen that much, but she's a pretty weak addition, to say the least. I'll keep watching and enjoying the show, but let's hope it hasn't jumped the shark.
