BUMP!!!

CANT wait for Sunday night!!!!

Jules with numbers

So glad I am not the only one still doing a count down for Dexter on Sunday...I am going to hate watching it alone but I will be watching it....two more days...

I dont have it but my older sister [WHO DOESNT WATCH IT!] lives a few blocks from me and she works graveyard....so im gonna have to visit while she is at work!

I love Dexter....only 2 seasons left!

Woo HOO for two more seasons of DEXTER!!!!!

You go! I'd def go to my sisters house if I were you!!!

I am going to a friends house to watch with her. She's as avid of a fan as I am. Its always fun to watch with someone else I think.

I can so relate to the character ...that i scares meself. Love the show.
I only saw the last episode of the last season...i was like what? she saw him do what? and she said she ***** him? and wow. I wish his wife...i wish that didn't happen ....i was so mad at him for leaving her alone with that dude still around and not knowing where he was. Not a good move Dex. She was a good one.

Don't forget to watch Homeland, too. Totally outstanding show.

sighing over the whole no television in this house thing. so no Dexter for me. can i watch it on the interweb like i do everything else?

Try Graboid. They have a lot of good stuff. Have not checked it but they may have it.

Thankful for premiere night on Comcast missed start of 8pm show but no worries I get to see it at 10 instead will just watch Homeland first,,,,not happy with no internet showing though...It would have been nice to share with friends...just saying.....1 hr 10 minutes now....

I think it is going to be a season full of Deb battling with wanting to arrest Dexter but torn because she loves him thrown in with Dexter trying to convince her it is okay because he only kills people that deserve it. That is what I got after seeing the first episode...anyone else? Nite everyone

Whoa. They're not drawing this out, are they? Amazing last scene: Deb knows all!

Looks like this season is going to focus on Deb realizing that all the peculiarities of her childhood (not getting to keep the dog, a Dad who invests far more time into Dex than her) are all related to her recent discovery about Dex. And she'll be keeping a close eye on Dexter, of course.

Nice twist about Laguardia finding Dexter's kill trophy aka the slide with the drop of blood on it. Now that she knows the Bay Harbor Butcher is still alive, she's going to go after him... but just how much will Deb do to impede Laguardia's investigation? Hmm.

I do love a good study in moral ambiguity. So far it's looking like this season is about Deb's moral code, not Dexter's. Interesting.

LOVED the season premiere. It was soo good!!!

I also thought they would build upon what Deb knows about Dexter all throughout the season. Guess after watching the ending she knows pretty much all.

No mention about Deb being "in love" with Dexter. Thought that was interesting.

Noticed on the previews for the season that it looks like Dexter kills Masuka. THAT would be a twist I didn't see coming... well, except for the preview I just saw, duh.

I agree with JD. I think this season is going to center a lot around Deb coming to terms with how her life has revolved around Dexter without her even really knowing it.

Looks like, from the preview, that Dexter will be doing LOTS of killing this season. Woo HOO for killing bad guys that actually walk the streets.

Its going to be a GREAT season!!! Cant wait til next Sunday!!!

OMG...If Dexter kills Masuka I will be floored! I started watching the season premier last night but got distracted. I will try again tonight.

I have a prediction on how the series will end. Granted, we're 2 seasons away from that, so there's lots of time to prove me wrong...but here's what makes sense to me:

We spend this season seeing Deb learn all about Harry's code (no secret there, they already showed a preview with Dexter telling Deb that Harry taught him what he knows)...so Deb learns how Dexter's adopted dad/cop taught the boy Dexter about forensics and how to blend in socially, and how to target only the bad guys... meanwhile, she's struggling between her own ethics and love for Dexter, her love for her dad and her desire to be just like him....

In the final season, I'm thinking Dexter will get killed in some final show-down. (I don't think Deb will be the one to kill him- that would be far too pat and dry. But I do think it will trigger all kinds of cop responsibility and family responsibility in Deb)

So what happens to Dexter's son Harrison? Deb adopts him, of course. And in the final scene, we see Deb teaching Harry's Code to Harrison, who by this time has begun to display a few Dexter-like sociopathic tendencies of his own (and really, they're already building on this- Dex worries about that a lot, and Harrison was found sitting in a pool of blood after Rita's murder).

And so the cycle begins again. Deb always wanted to be like Harry (another ongoing theme of the series). Now she is.

Anyway. Just an idea.

Really good posts by JD and all.

You know how Dexter closes his eyes at the end of the first episode, just before it goes black to credits?

I think that's a clue. He's blind to something. Willfully blind.

Who is "after him"?

Not anyone they've hinted at...
