Actually, the only way the whole thing can get more is to end it on a dexter rehabilitation, like the hints are pointing out. It's been already a running theme.

Calling it.

Dexter will give the killer to the cops and go to argentina. And they will ride horses with hannah!
That's how lame I think it will go.

We are getting trolled by the writters... You know season 5... Well, they never got back from the strike.

capitalism, baby. as long as the ratings are good, new seasons will be ordered. as long as a popular show keeps delivering solid new content, the ratings will remain well enough.

therefore, a show can only end if one of two scenarios happens:

I) the quality of the show deteriorates further and further until the ratings follow, leading to cancellation.
II) the ratings of the show are bad despite its high quality. in this case, the show gets cancelled after 1-2 seasons.

scenario II is the only possibility for a show to end before it turns to shit. examples for scenario I include dexter, battlestar galactica, heroes, dbz, prison break, how i met your mother and many more. examples for scenario II include firefly, terminator SCC, dark angel, terra nova, surface, shark and countless others.

God usually i dont care about awful acting but holy shit did they phone it in.

ALSO. I bet Dexter will get away without as much as a slap on the wrist. No consequences. Just run away with everyone living happily ever after.

I thought the whole thing with Deb and her boss felt really unfinished as well. They had this tension that just didn't go anywhere, and then he basically told her to fuck off. Watching this episode made me feel like the writers had a checklist of loose ends, and just went through them one by one without any regard for storytelling.


It feels, the entire time, like the writers are winging it from week to week.

Like how they went out or their way showing Deb's boss having opportunities to poison her, which led to absolutely nothing.

This current season makes me so sad, why don't American shows ever quit while they're ahead?

This is Prison Break all over again.


Oh god don't remind me. I'm still not over Prison Break.

There are examples for the a show getting better and better and ending in its commercial and qualitative climax.

Seinfeld comes to mind.

Seriously, when Harrison fell from the gym equipment and Hannah took her to the hospital I literally went and took a dump without pausing the episode just because it was so terrible that I didn't give a shit. But I did actually "give a shit", as such.

And that ending with the psychiatrist getting slit in the throat - how fucking hard is it to catch a killer who happens to be right there and probably wouldn't have had time to escape even if it was out the back door? For fucks sake.

this probably is going to be a long thought, but (...) :
psychiatrist a Professional acting so in the moment? and desperately even if she had Already Clearly known what to to do - by what i mean - Having and Just GOING THROUGH A ... PLAN? for me there are two explanations:
1. either writers want to end the whole series quickly and they just want to make any ( any = pathetic ) kind of ends to any yet unsolved background stories in the show

or 2. Vogel wanted to die/commit a sucide Because of her Son and being kind of a stuck between Him and Dexter, and by Not saying it Directly to the viewers they wanted to add a little spice, magic and/or mystery to the show, which just equals some homework and thinking

or actually and Probaly - both

Haha so good.

I'm still hoping all the characters will die. If the trailer at the end was to be believed, that may well be what happens.

It's just a shame that the story that follows Dexter's life is far less enjoyable than the serial killer storylines.

Well we're talking about quality though, which I felt Seinfeld accomplished through its comedic value and characters.

A better example, and probably the best one I can think of, is The Sopranos. I never felt they had a bad season, in fact I consider it the best show ever made. It had overwhelming commercial success and the critical acclaim to match. It wrapped itself up in a mere 6 seasons (feels more like 7 though since the final one is extra long) despite its popularity.

The spoilers up until the final ep have been correct, but I've heard varying scenarios on what the final episode entails D:

There's at least 3 detailed and convincing endings that I've read now. All of them are shit, lol.
