What if the Professor is Travis' own Dark Passenger? I think Dexter's dad is his own (in the hallucination form I mean, not when he was alive as he didn't tell him to kill anyone, just instructed him on how to do in the safest way so he wouldn't get caught)

I just finished season 4...started #5. I have been thinking about something for quite a while now. I've noticed that with the passing of time - since the 90's when I started watching tv series and movies - the actors get worse and worse when it comes to acting with 'corpses' and 'dead relatives' and loved ones.

In other words...it's like they fail miserably whenever someone dies, get kidnapped, shot, when they see a mauled, rotten or beaten up body/corpse, etc.

I CAN understand Dexter not feeling much after Rita's death - not a single tear or sad face - except for the hillbilly bathroom tantrum but...everybody else...

Rita's mother/father in law = not a tear, not a single sad face, all cool
Cody = not a tear
Astor = cries only once when first given the bad news, then never again
Rita's Mother = nowhere to be seen - wtf?

And that aside...whenever someone's someone dies, it's like nobody cares.

Only Deb cries when Lundi dies, but that's pretty much it. What the hell is up with everybody else being immune to things that would make people cry, shit their pants, weep to dehydration, etc.?
If you label every single aggressive strategy 'cheese', you are officially declaring yourself an incurable mental retard.

Child actors suck, but iirc, Astor and Cody both act sad at their mother's death and their grandparents don't get much/any screen time after the news. Dexter's pretty fucking torn up about it the whole season and it's what makes the season interesting imo. Rita's mother is estranged after the 2nd season and seriously, we don't care about her by the time season 5 rolls around, I'm fucking glad they didn't open up that can of worms. Deb and everyone on the force acts sympathetic to Dex. I dunno what exactly you're looking for, I thought they handled it as well as they could have utilizing child actors (who just generally aren't good at this sort of thing).

And Lundy, well, no one but Deb cared about him in Miami. He was kinda a douche to the Miami Metro PD during the Bay Harbor Butcher case and was only really involved with Angel and Deb, so I dunno why you're looking for them all to get all teary eyed over him.

Well for Dexter he really has no emotions. He's said it several times in his monologues. The look of shock on his face after he carried out Harrison is about as close as he's gotten to crying. Basically he's said several times that he's faking most of his emotions because he doesn't have any. Him slowly gaining emotions throughout the seasons is what makes the show interesting to me.

Dexter claims to have no emotions in those monologues, but they pretty clearly establish that he does through his actions throughout the whole series. I mean, what fascinates me about the series is that it's basically a study of how a more or less recluse serial killer with no emotions develops into his own person with beliefs and feelings through his relationships with his Sister, Girlfriend/Wife, and Children. At least that's how I see it.

Not sure if the 6th sense theory still holds up. There's a scene where the two of them are drinking from mugs at a bar and when they both leave the bar, you can see both mugs still on the bar stand. Still, despite the Doomsday killer's face on the newspapers, no one seems to pay him any mind. So maybe Travis just visualizes the mug as well.

Plot seems to be progressing pretty quickly and we're only on episode 5. I think there's plenty of room for surprise and I'm actually starting to become hopeful about this season.

Don't forget the part where he opens the trunk from the passenger seat while Travis puts the girl inside it. I definitely think the '6th sense' theory doesn't hold up

Quinn has been fucking shit up ever since season 3, never liked him.

There's really been no development for Dexter this season(so far). Maybe something will come out of the whole brother sam thing for him.
I'm liking the new cop, think he's been a good addition so far. I'm not really sure what his point is in the show yet.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

dumping cody and aster entirely seems like such a cheap way out.

Yeah man, we got some geniuses here on the tl forum. Admittedly I wouldn't have noticed any of this if it wasn't mentioned in this thread last week.

I find it strange that Dexter just decided to take Doomsday's word for it. Doesn't seem like something he would generally do. That's just me though.

Anyone else notice that the guard dog didn't park at all while brother sam was getting shot?

I couldn't describe it better.
That's the same reason Monster is the best anime for me. The way they analyze/mess with the human psyque is fascinating.

Yeah, some guard dog....
I loved this episode though it was great, and the plot really is developing pretty fast, so I'm expecting a lot of surprises.

Hard to tell if Olmos' character is real or not. I mean, for example, in the beginning of the episode:

+ Show Spoiler +
Olmos and Hanks are praying, Hanks looks at Olmos and for a second Olmos' face is bloody and then normal again. That kinda seems like a hint that maybe he is dead after all.

Don't forget after he was let go, he called Geller, you don't ever see dexter calling his father do you?
Though the whole mother thing was a bit strange, not like dexter was behind him listening.

I'm more inclined to believe that geller has a terminal illness of some kind due to the head bleeding.
