"How do you feel?"

"..Human."

Fucking amazing scene.

It's not even her acting that bugs me... It's the character. Bores the fucking shit out of me, never before have I rooted so hard for a bad guy to kill a main character. Dammit Dexter, why couldn't you have been like 10 minutes late to that house, just let the bull guy kill her T.T

I actually been liking Deb more and more as this season goes on. It'll be interesting to see what she does as the season progresses.

Fun fact is that Deb and Dexter were married in real life but then separated.

Possibly the most interesting exchange of dialogue in this series coming up this week. Simply love the character of Isaac, and how well-rounded he is (outside of the whole killing people for personal reasons). He is really evil to make a man kill himself though. Devious.

LaGuerta will pick up his role once Dexter deals with him in some way. THAT will be interesting.

Though I don't agree with Collings, your arguement is pretty bad. A pretty face just for the sake of it, or that effects badly on arcs/characters in a boring manner isn't really a positive thing(I mean you can just watch porn if that's what you are looking for...). In that way Collings is right and you should focus your critique on if the pretty faces are of value to the show beyond just wasted airtime.
I however do agree with you on that Rita(and possibly Yvonne's character) did increase Dexter's character's, I mean I think Rita(and her kids) added a ton of depth into Dexter's character, where he wasn't free to do just anything.

I think Deb was pretty good this episode and the season is starting to look a lot better after a horrible start. Still a bit bummed out that Mike got killed off, though I had predicted it 6 months ago

It's actually all the female characters on shows like this. Margaret from Boardwalk empire, Deb/Rita from Dexter, Skylar from Breaking Bad, the wife from the Sopranos.

It's because all the main characters in these shows are involved in criminal enterprises and their female counterparts serve as an impediment to their routine. So the main reason that these female characters are disliked is because the stop the main characters from doing what they do best, which irritates the viewers.

I mean, it's a Crima/mystery drama. He clearly doesn't like the drama.

Don't get me started -.- I don't know who I hate more Deb, Lori or Margaret.... I'm just glad I don't watch breaking bad.. I hear the wife in that is an irritating bitch as well -.- Why can't TV show writers make a good female counter part? Makes me feel like a misogynist watching all these shows while rooting for them all to die xD

Still on the fence so far, but Dexter evolving is always fun. And the season villain seems awesome so I hope they don't screw this up

The entire concept of the love interests in this show for dexter is to show that he has some emotions and humanity inside of himself despite him claiming he's emotionless. And everytime he gets close to someone, something bad happens. Rita was the first time things went good for a longer time, and helped him deal with being more human, but ultimately even that was taken from him, which further fuels his goals. People who bitch and moan about this stuff, absolutely don't know what they're watching and would be better off just going to watch expendables 2 and the saw/hostel movies so they can see explosions, and torture with little to no story.

Well..... I was hoping that after last seasons finale of her seeing Dexter murder someone it would be an interesting plot thread.... but they kinda resolved it in 4 episodes and nothing changed...

Well analyzed. I've always liked Deb though, and I'm liking this season.
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.

I want Deb to die, I find the show is revolving around her to much and her character is really boring in large doses.

Also why did they get rid of the IT guy, it really felt like he was going to morph into a character. Personally I don't really care that they got rid of him but it just seemed so strange the way they got rid of him.

After the slow start, I think this season is really picking up. Dexter's monologues have been top notch as usual.

This show just can't recover from bombing seasons 5 and 6. Deb walking in on a kill just seems like a last resort to get people to continue watching. The first 4 seasons were great, but the deeper the relationship and emotional drama gets the lamer the show is. Not digging the deb/dexter interaction this season at all, and the antagonist isn't very interesting. I'm pretty sure the actor is the same guy from Rome. Loved his acting there but not so much as this character. Oh well, we'll see where it goes.. gonna keep watching since I've gone this far aleady.
