Dexter - The Offical Thread

what a horrible ending, I want the last 8 years back!

i haven't watched dexter since the 3rd season or so, but i've been reading avclub reviews of it lately because they are hilarious. that sounds like one of the worst ends to a tv show ever.

All that lumberjack ending needed was some mother fucking Doakes to take this from the worst season of the show by far to the best in history.

I really ENJOYED watching saxon bleed

that scene was great, the second I heard the music I knew he was there just to kill saxon

I skipped this season as the last one was just awful and reading the comments it was a wise choice. People actually got paid to write this schlock?

oh man this is out yet, I forgot... probably gonna watch it later or something, seasons 5-7 were lame-ish already, but this season was pure hell (in a bad, un-inspired and boring way)

I think the only reason I came back into this thread was to be reminded how much a dig that chick. She's almost too cute hot. She was pretty adorable on Friday Night Lights too. Google to try and find her name typing Dexter M first popular search is Dexter Masuka's Daughter hah. Madison Burge. Picture of her topless from Dexter is really nice but, yea I just wish she did porn.

you wish other men were paid to have sex with her?

Let's face it guys, this show has never been good. I had to tell them. They didn't seem to realize the show had been using the same tired tropes since the beginning. I mean, basically, they just have Dexter reiterate everything you're seeing in voice over narration. Should I tell them about the voice over, the constant redundant internal monologues? Dexter is also a terrible character with no redeeming qualities. Could it be possible that they didn't see how Dexter's motivations only served his own interests? It's like Entourage with serial killers. What I mean by this is, Dexter gets away with everything, all the time, like Vince on Entourage. Except he's a serial killer. The show wraps everything up in a nice little bow for the viewer. The writers suck and are unable to resolve conflict in a realistic way.

Zaphod's Dad: Remember that time I found you creating dupes on xltronic and I showed you how to use Tor? Remember your training? You're getting careless. Remember your training.

My dad was right. Thanks ghost dad.

Zaphod's Dad: I hope you drown in a fucking hurricane.

Holy crap, haha... the production value of the show went tumbling down hill over the last two episodes. Please, someone go back and watch the scene where

and listen to the dramatic midi music that plays. It's fucking hilarious!

Yeah she's cute but an absolute useless character to add when wrapping up a series

There is more possibilities in porn besides her getting railed by a dude or dudes. But. yea, I dun wanna have to ball hard enough to keep a cutey like that around. I would rather fap watching her has sexy time and then go back to my life of freedom, than deal with a high maintenance mama cita of her caliber

Yes, this is obvious. But, Dexter was a pretty weak show, getting surprise boobies from good looking ladies, regardless of the value as a character, was one of few redeeming qualities the show had.

yeah, sadly called this early on, too. There was a time when everyone on watmm was praising the show, so I went out on the Chinese street and bought a box set of the first two seasons. I think I made it through three episodes before throwing in the towel. I didn't want to ruin everyone's fun but it's been a pretty crap show from the start...

What was the point of introducing her in the last season? She's that annoying Asian guy's daughter, she's a stripper, she smokes pot, and she becomes an intern at the Miami Metro... what?

Also, she's not cute.

Agreed (sans the not cute part)

Can we get some SPOILERS EVERYWHERE signage like on the BB thread, Squee? Would like to discuss the ending more liberally

Spoil away.

They totally shit the bed on that one.

Seriously! Listen to that god damn music! What the hell happened? Even if the show was a bit mediocre from time to time the music was always pretty good..

Couldn't find a clip of it, but the music choice after when Dex talks to his father for the last time...lol

Not that there was heaps of ambiguity around the ending, but this tweak could've been a nice touch:

Oh lord what a finale ... this season was like being stuck in limbo. It's almost amazing how many times the characters are talking about wanting to do something and it takes 7 or more episodes for it to semi-happen eventually. Let's go to Argentina. Ok. No I can't go I must help Vogel. Ok Vogel is dead let's go to the airport now. OK wait I should probably kill Saxon first, but then we go. OK he tells me to back off, maybe we should go now. Some guy's looking for Hannah, we must go right now. Just gonna kill Saxon first. What I don't need to kill him at this point? Cool, let's go. Oh shit the guy is at the airport looking for Hannah, let's distract him and get on the plane now. Oh phone call, deb is shot, we're gonna get on a plane soon, first I must go and see Deb. Hannah get on this bus pls. Let's call Hannah. Okay go on the plane now, I'll join you later. Ok let's not after all.

WHAT WAS THIS?!
