Dexter re-watch


Chimera

Recommended Posts

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.

    • The difference is about how much player input is allowed and encouraged in the decision making process. Top down teams tend to dictate to players how everything is handled. Disagreements are handled by the coach and players are expected to do what they are told regardless of what they think or feel.  Players are perceived as commodities to be used until we find better. In player led teams player input is encouraged and valued. Players and especially leaders are expected to settle their own disagreements and be accountable to the team but mostly to each other. Players are family to be appreciated and supported in their growth. Is the reality of football the same in both? Yeah there are limited positions, football is a business and winning is the bottom line. Coaches get final say and run the program because that is their job. But in player led teams they feel valued, appreciated, part of a larger whole. Most people who have worked at multiple jobs know exactly what I am talking about. When players try to run the show and don't value  coach input that isn't a player led team, that is a circus which we surely are familiar with in our past.  
    • For our pics and trades tonight and tmrw.  Remember, Aho was a 2nd rounder and Slavin was a 4th rounder. 
    • Seems to be the consensus from the talking heads. I really wish we had double dipped at center in the 2nd round. Sion will never play in the league.
