Dexter re-watch

Yep I've been bored. Started over on this series. I know the popular opinion is that the show went downhill quickly after season 4. For the most part I agree. Having just finished season 6 (DDK) I can safely say that season was much, much worse than I remember.

 

To my surprise, however, was how I enjoyed season 5 the second time around. I remember hating that season when it aired. I would have loved for Dex to end up with Lumen instead of Hannah at the end. It would have made so much more sense. Yes, she was a highly annoying character for the first third of the season, but I believe she became my favorite Dexter bimbo.... much better than Lila, Hannah, the cashier in Nebraska (wtf was that about?) or maybe even Rita (who was a total nag before she left the show). The way Lumen left kinda pissed me off at the end.

 

Season 4 is still the best, imo. 3 and 6 are tied for worst.

I just think it was the Miguel character that killed it for me. He got on my nerves worse than Lila.

 

As far as being goofy, I kinda enjoy how it gets goofy at times to remind the audience that it is a dark comedy at its core. I think they got away from that in 5-7, then brought back a little in season 8.

I liked Brother Sam. One of the most pointless characters in Dexter history was probably Masuka's daughter.

 

Or the guy that was with Batista's daughter lol.

 

 

Obviously it started going down hill after 4.  However I actually liked Ray Stevenson's character and the chemistry with Dex and him was pretty cool.   He was a good bad guy.

 

They screwed up with the show, they should have had him on the run early, like season 5 or 6 and change locations maybe overseas or something.

btw Rita went on a power trip as soon as her husband died and thought she could control Dex....can't stand her....glad to read she dies.

      Championship Round Playoff Thread

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah. Probably will be close. I am not rooting for anyone don’t really care that much.   Same for the AFC game, don’t really care. Except it is Sean Payton, I always like it when he loses.  But it’s New England, I can’t root for them. It’s going to be 23 degrees at kickoff in Denver, wind will 12-15mph, dropping to 13 degrees by 7pm with snow predicted to start before halftime.

      REPORT: Cade Mays will hit the free-agent market

      By frankw · Posted

      Most people will agree with this in principle. But it's situational and also depends on the results you're getting. We were middle of the league in sacks given up. Had the 27th passing offense. And if a few instances that went our way turned out differently we very likely could have been staring at another 5 win season. For the highest salary cap percentage to the OL in the entire league. While we had basically nothing at linebacker and not much at all consistent pass rush to speak of as we were leaning on two rookies. And despite all that our defense which has been on a lopsided end of investment compared to the offense managed to go from league worst and giving up historic single season points in 2024 to middle of the league in 2025 which is quite impressive all things considered. So yes the investment in the OL versus the results certainly matters or at least to should to anyone that would like to continue to improve and also maybe finally win another playoff game.

      Tony Pauline: Panthers’ Biggest Roster Needs

      By CPcavedweller · Posted

      Still think that if Carson Beck is there on Day 3 you have to take him. QB depth in drafts has been atrocious as of late but what he is good at translates very well to what the Panthers need a QB to do.
