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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||
