I swear, they've replaced the writing staff with a sippy bird randomly hitting keys.

I'm going to watch the last few remaining episodes only to see how colossally bad it is.

And I liked seasons 5 and 6, dammit.

As much as I try to defend this show, the last 10 minutes were so god damn awful.

"I don't even want to be here"? What the fuck is that dialogue for Dexter's character? He's all broken up about Zack and Vogel being killed by Saxon, and then he decides to just walk away and let Deb take care of him? That scene drove me crazy to no end.

As 0/10 Dexter is now (jk, it's actually a 3.5), I still can't understand how could someone leave the show when there's just a couple of episodes left. I think suffering through it is still better, than not seeing the show's closure, after investing so much in it and its' characters.

(haven't seen the latest episode, so the quality might've gotten better. maybe it's a 4 now! I'll know by tomorrow)

Not gonna say is has to do with investment. Just that as humans we just want to know the end of a story. Especially if we liked a part of it.
Maybe that's just me but if I begin a movie, no matter how shitty it is once I'm at least 30min in, I'll watch to the end maybe while discussing and checking my phone. May be the reason while I keep watching horror movies, they always fucking suck but for some reasons I always watch them to the end.

Well obviously for series if you think S01E01 is bad you probably won't watch up to S05. But for something like Dexter where some seasons were good... yeah kinda want to know the ending.
Either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.

I'd agree... but I did this by accident with prison break. I saw every episode except for the finale. Things came up and I missed it. To this day, I never got around to seeing what happened. I've forgotten what was going on and altogether don't care.

Deb/Dexter never crossed paths with the homeland dude at all in the hospital lol.

And somehow Elway saw enough to justify a warrant to search Debra's home?

How the hell the marshall didn't recognize the wanted serial killer who's face is on every tv and paper and all over internet with released video of the killing in that freaking room.

"Oh Hey there is a serial killer in the same city as I am, I am following a cop from the department looking into the case, hmmm let's free that guy chained there.

Anyway, this season is a real piece of shit after the 3 first episodes.

Changing Harrison's actor should had been a big Red Flag. Hannah who had near divine superpowers is the most worthless sidekick ever.

Dexter can kill the fucking idiot Saxxon in his house, wtf, he can just say it's self-defense.

Major rage inducing stuff... One more to see how they complete the butchering.

I fully agree with HawaiianPig.
In my opinion the plot is really written badly.
For example vogel should have been introduced 2-3 seasons before to make her really matter to Dexter, maybe in a small side story where they meet and show how she really becomes an important part of his life.
I mean it is said that she should be/act like a mother to Dexter, but there is no longer connection or history between them.
She is introduced like deus ex machina, out of the box and now she should be an integral part of his life ?
The whole Yvonne storyline is also a nice idea in general for Dexter to find a soul mate to find redemption and a way to get rid of his "dark passenger" but the way it is written is just to hush hush.
Also this boy who was killed (I already forgot the name) was even thought to be Dexters apprentice or successor by some, just to get killed of and serve no real purpose then to make Dexter more aware that the Brain surgeon is no nice guy and that Dexter should get rid of it. The other side stories like Masukas daughter are also so out of the box wtf like ...
And I really agree with HP on the hospital thing, I thought the exact same thing and it was so lame ...
I mean I knew that this was gonna happen when they showed him near the treadmill for the first time and her saying oh get away from that and acting all stressed so she couldn't look after the boy.
It is really bad to have the Breaking Bad Show finale and the Dexter finale at the same time, because it makes you realize how bad and worse the last Dexter seasons actually got and especially the finale.

The worst part about the way Vogel was handled is, to me, she was always a somewhat suspicious/evil character. Partially the acting, partially her questionable ethical practices, but when you put it all together, it makes it difficult to feel sympathy for her. And when it's difficult for the viewer to feel sympathy, it's also difficult for the viewer to accept Dexter's sympathy.

It's just a weird season. Dexter is protecting the lives of all the characters I don't like (Hannah included, sorry), and the only new character I do like (Deb's boss) is apparently his primary antagonist in the series finale.

words cant descibe how dissapointed I am after watching the last 10 episodes
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother

hi admin, if you're just talking about season 1 I thought it was quite good, almost as good as 24. I'm still working my way through season 2, only on epi 4

It's utterly and completely absurd how pathetically hard the writers are trying to give the ending they want. Dexter suddenly and unbelievably does not need to kill anymore because of Hannah (though this never happened before, with Rita, Hannah or the other blonde who also killed with Dexter - forgot her name), despite the fact that the man killed Vogel (who Dexter apparently cared for) as well as him fitting the code. Saxxon offering a truce (lolwut?...and that too right after threatening Deb..) and then heading straight over to Dex's place (not so smart after all?)

Debra suddenly realizes how awesome Quin is (who is now an awesome cop with no partying/drug issues or dirty cop business) - she broke up with him, remember? How convenient, given she needs someone stable to lean on with Dexter leaving and all....and then the ending...everything so full of BS.

This show...well I watched Breaking Bad right after it, so I'm fine.
All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.

I'm still reading the story but I haven't watched Dexter since Season 6's finale. I liked the first 3 seasons a ton, then season 4 felt meh to me (yes I know most people love it) and season 5 and 6 were already horrendous. I read the comments throughout season 7 and now 8 and I'm pretty glad I didn't keep following.

"Hey daughter, why are you just having a Diet Coke in the middle of a weekday having just come from a funeral, the time of celebration?"

"But dad you were all up in my shit about smoking pot! This is relevant to our discussion!"

"I'm sorry."

"Yeah I know it's cool."

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is how you drive the plot forward through great dialogue and CONFLICT. Masterfully done, Dexter writers.

Well atleast the writers proved me wrong. I didn't think she was going to be in another episode.

I watch Dexter Religiously everyweek, and after that, I watch Breaking Bad.

In this way, after watching a horrendous show, I can enjoy Breaking bad even more. The feeling it's amazing, like eating after sex.

When every plot twist you facepalm or don't care, you know there is a problem.

One last episode to stop the agony and put Dexter to rest. RIP.
