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.

    • They said there wasn't clear evidence to warrant the overturn.  How would it have made a difference at that point in the game?   https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/nfl-privately-admitted-to-erroneous-reversal-of-catch-by-panthers
    • Me, I'm sick of WWE channel hopping their PLEs and shows. Netflix now with Raw. USA still has Smackdown but you can't get it with Roku if you don't also have cable. Then they went from all the PLEs on Peacock to ESPN+ which required upgrading your Disney+ package. Then they frikkin' move Saturday Night Main Event with John Cena's retirement match back over to frikkin' Peacock, which we'd just cancelled two months prior because no PLEs there anymore. And there are fewer, but longer matches and its the same danged stories again and again. Rematch after rematch after rematch between PLEs. Fewer matches, fewer wrestlers, more promos (of lesser quality) and less action.  It just seems like it's all fillers and re-runs. I'm tired of Cody Rhodes. I'm tired of Jey Uso. I'm tired of the two Brons. Shuffle the deck a bit guys, this game's getting stale.
    • Chuba was 3 yards behind the 3 gap. He was lined up weak offset I. It was a 33 dive. Chuba needed to power through off of Ekwonu's block and slip off into the 5 gap where the Tremble had the lane sealed and Rick pulled the LB out of the 5 gap. Here's a visual if you need proof. Chuba did a jump cut laterally to the 2 gap on the right side with unblocked defenders crashing down and went airborne.   This is a 33 dive that should have been slipped off the block into the 5 gap. Chuba lacked vision, but you can see Rico and Bryce staring at the intended running lane sealed off by Tremble and Ekwonu. He should have read Ekwonu's block. The blocking and misdirection is NOT set up for the right side. The play worked. Chuba failed to execute on this play. Trust who you want to, but I wouldn't suggest you argue with the video. Anyone telling you this was drawn up to go right with the blocking did not analyze it. They are correct it should have been a called dive, and it was a called dive.  This was a weak offset I bringing Tremble in motion from the right to the left.
