Yes it is. I'm really glad they brought in John for the story line. I can't stand the whole family thing with Dexter!

Dexter is by far one of my fav. tv shows along side with Sons of Anarchy (mainly because I grew up with the 81)

Do you think that Dexter will find out about the neighbor and kill him? He's killed one innocent already, so why stop there? I think that Masuka will tell eventually (either to Deb or to Dex).

No. He won't, I don't think. I think he realizes the errors of his ways in the past and will stick to the code.

Maybe the neighbor will die in a freak accident? Or will he be back next season to stir the pot? Maybe he has a secret crime or strange background.

Absolutely AWESOME!!! I can't wait for the final episode next week. Looks like Deb is gonna find out about Dexter's mother and possibly brother next week.

Yeah. This season kicks ass! Seriously -- the best since the first season, imho. Possibly, dare I say, *as good* as the first season. Wow.

Nobody else gonna chime in on this week's episode? Me and Dokk the only one's who watched this one? No body else caught this great episode? No one gonna tune in next week for the finale? (all said in my best Stewie Griffen impersonation)

I think Dex is juggling too many things or I have too high expectations for him. He fell into Arthur's trap too easily.

Pretty exciting though. The Chief is playing great psychological games with La Guerta and Batista; Christine is gone; Arthur and Dexter face to face.

How do you think that's going to play out? Will Arthur try to out Dex? Or will they go their separate ways and let the games begin?

Like the Highlander, there can be only one. :banger

I have high expectations for the final episode ... hopefully not too high. The season's just been so good, imho, that I'm expecting it to be one helluva roller coaster ride. :tu

I'm still more intrigued by the whole Deb figuring out who Dexter really is clip from the preview. Wonder if she'll know that the Ice Truck Killer is his brother.

Ah. I didn't see the episode preview. That will definitely be interesting. In the books she finds out who and what he really is. I only read book 3 but the dynamic is interesting. I'm not sure how far they will go that route in the TV series.

Also Quinn = new Doakes?

Exactly. I still am in awe today. Especially since I heard "Venus" by Frankie Avalon on the radio this morning (the song that Dex played when he killed Trinity). Not easily does a television show give me this uneasy sensation like this. I am a grown and pretty masculine man, but it brought me very close to tears. It's like it was part of my family that was lost. Sixteen hours later and still all I have to say is "Wow"!

The Professor 12-14-2009 12:39 PM

Re: Dexter Season 4 - DISCUSSION THREAD
 
Got in to the office this morning and the department chair and I chatted about the show for a little bit. It was such a fantastic episode and an eerily perfect end to a great season. I have no clue how they're going to top this next season....

Starscream 12-14-2009 12:41 PM

No way will this one be topped.

Re: Dexter Season 4 - DISCUSSION THREAD
 
It took me a few minutes to gather myself after that ending and my wife was in tears.

We are both wondering if the new season will begin with the last season being a dream, but it seems like a fitting ending, however surprising.

I knew it was gonna be a good ending, but never expected THAT.

Something seemed wierd when Trinity said "it's already over", as Dex was about to hammer him.

Starscream 12-14-2009 07:28 PM

David, if you haven't seen it yet, don't read any further. It's been 24 hours, so the silence is being broken.

The whole Dallas "dream" thing's been done before. Don't think that will happen, but I have absolutely no clue how the next season starts. Will Deb move in to help take care of the kids? Will the older two be under his care or go to the grandmother (or any other of Rita's family member)? I know that he'll definitely have his child, but not sure about the other two. Does Dexter have to own up to anything with Miami Metro after Trinity killed in his house? What the F**k happens now? I guess we'll have to wait a year to find out.:(

OMG! Damn, I never liked her but to kill her off.....BRUTAL!

mrreindeer 12-15-2009 05:33 AM

Re: Dexter Season 4 - DISCUSSION THREAD
 
My only beef with it is that Dexter's son is just too young to remember any of what happened....unlike when Dexter himself was in the similar situation as a child. He keeps talking throughout the season about 'loss of innocence' but for his son to have lost his innocence (as he had at around age 5 or so), doesn't he have to be older than a year old baby?

mrreindeer 12-15-2009 05:36 AM

Re: Dexter Season 4 - DISCUSSION THREAD
 
Ok, can't stop thinking about this.....and Rita being killed in the bathtub in his home....begs the question....was this the first murder in that home or is this a repetition of a prior murder???? And...had Trinity already started (or finished) his next series of killings???

The boy he kidnapped began that series of murders, then Rita was next, then he never finished the cycle.



Don't think any murders had happened in that house before. She was merely a tool for Trinity to get to Dexter.

Dexter is going to fish him out of the ocean, re-animate him and kill him again.

What a finish! I'm going to miss Rita

Re: Dexter Season 4 - DISCUSSION THREAD
 
Don't make this too complicated, people. I'd be shocked if there was anything fishy going on in the narrative structure (e.g., a dream). I could be wrong; but I was mostly right about everything else this season, so that's unlikely (see post 34 in this thread). I'm talking to you, David. ;)

I think Andy's questions/guesses are pretty good. I wouldn't be surprised if the older kids go to the grandparents and Deb moves in to help with the baby (and further enrich her relationship with Dexter). I don't think Dexter has to own up to sh*t, though. He's a high-profile person and could, reasonably, be targeted. Hell ... just look at what's happened to Deb in previous seasons (e.g., Ice Truck Killer). That said, it wouldn't surprise me if someone (Quinn) started snooping around/asking questions and Dexter has to do something about that next season.

You really are psychic, aren't you!? Amazing predictions!

And I'd be really disappointed if they did it as a dream...but I just loved this season so I'm sad to see it's over and wouldn't mind to start it up all over again!

I think next season will have Deb snooping around on her bro instead of Quinn. You heard it here.

That makes it more interesting than a repeat of the 'ol Sergeant Doakes scenario.

And you do know that Dexter & Deb are married in real life, right?

That for me, was the biggest shocker of the season! :D

I just found this out myself.

Might as well toss in my prediction; I think the last thing you will ever see in the Dexter series is his son becoming the serial killer and it will solve a long unsolved crime.

It never seems to take long to move past a murder and forget a former star, so Rita will be an afterthought very soon and we'll all be spellbound by another drama.

On a side note, I watched "Law Abiding Citizen" last night and every Dexter fan should do the same.

Yeah ... they're married (recently).
