Worst season opener yet. :|

.

Did you see the season opener for East Bound and Down yet??? It was freaking aweful!!!

The whole episode felt phoned in and half assed. I really hope the season picks up as it goes along.

Still, not bad television. Just bad by Dexter standards.

The previews looked great for the next episode. I think Dexter comes unglued....

There were to many loose ends that had to be tied up from last season... That is why I think it wasn't as good as it normally is. Ritas death/funeral, having to tell the kids, etc... (Loved Dexter with Mickey Mouse ears telling the kids she had died)

I think this weeks episode will be better!

I don't think it was a bad season opener at all. If you got hyped by the teasers and talk all over the web, I could see how you'd be disappointed. Dexter is a slow-paced, cerebral show. It's not going to drop bombshells on the viewer a la Lost.

That being said, why the in your face butt shot of that Jay Cutler lookalike, Quinn? That ruined the show for me, not the writing.

Season 1: Doll head on the fridge

Season 2: They find Dex's stash

Season 3: Accidentally kills the wrong person

Season 4: Introduction of Trinity/car wreck

Season 5: Dexter muddling around trying to figure out how to respond

Yeah, its a slow paced show, but this one just didn't hold up to previous openers at all. I expected better overall writing as well. It just felt half assed.

Killing off Rita was a mistake. They went for shock value instead of story by doing that.

IMO it worked out great, the whole serial killer with a family would have been trite.

I don't much care for suspicious Quinn trying to track down kyle butler, feels to much like season 2 with Doakes, I think that will be a dead end story wise.

This season feels more like Dexter getting lost in his darkness a bit more. l agree the bathroom scene was the highlight of the episode.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
