Really confused how to review Dexter, horrible season 6 and horrible season 8 really does not help this show. Should of ended it 4 years earlier. SHOWTIME really loves to butcher an all time favorites. Season 1-2 decent and exciting, 3-4 side plot is weak, no words for other seasons, just cracks everywhere. Good casting included, season 4 villain, season 1-2 Doakes, Dexter's brother, season 3 Jimmy Smits saves the show, season 4 John Lithglow. Series has an excellent composer who sadly died during 2014 if I am not wrong as well. Dexter had a good set of interesting characters created to interact with the main character, never a dull moment.
