**SPOILERS** I can only talk for myself of course, but I thoroughly enjoyed this Dexter revival/miniseries. It's nothing as good as the phenomenal season four and probably is a tad short when compared to the seasons that precede the aforementioned, but it's without doubt much better than anything that followed The Trinity Killer. It's an absolute joy to see Michael C. Hall back as Dexter, it's testament to his acting and the character that you genuinely love to watch him. Jennifer Carpenter's return as Debra is also terrific, as is the late reappearance of the awesome Batista (David Zayas) but also the newcomers to the series are enjoyable too. I got attached to the community of characters pretty much instantly, with the standouts being Jack Alcott, Julia Jones and Clancy Brown. I'd be up for seeing more, honestly. I found the story to be rather engrossing, it got me tense and uncomfortable a fair few times. I see some say it's rushed, I won't quite say that but the last few episodes do feel a bit sped up - but I gained much entertainment from it and feel happy about the ending, which is much more satisfying than the original conclusion that we got. I see IMDb reviewers have the final episode as the serie's lowest ever, which is absolute rubbish in my opinion - borderline insulting, in fact. I read there are rumours of a continuation of some sort. I'd be up for one no doubt, but I'd be pleased if it ended here too.… Expand

It's a decent sequel for the original Dexter. Let's be honest, original Dexter didn't have the end it deserved. No one like it's end. The TV show was begging to give it a good ending and I believe this is why this sequel happened and it does exactly why it was created - it ends appropriately which won't leave with you with questions. I won't write any spoilers, but I will say that it's super interesting and doesn't disappoint at all. I give it 10/10 stars.… Expand

## **Dexter: New Blood (2021) Review: A Redemptive, Riveting Final Chapter - 9/10** After the original *Dexter* series had undeniably run its course, culminating in a finale that felt like a betrayal to its characters and fans, the announcement of *New Blood* was met with rightful skepticism. Could a ten-year-later revival possibly redeem the story? Astonishingly, the answer is a resounding yes. *New Blood* serves as the powerful, poignant, and dramatically satisfying conclusion the original series always deserved. Set a decade after the infamous lumberjack fade-out, the series finds a meticulously crafted, newly "sober" Dexter Morgan living a quiet, repressed life as Jim Lindsay in the frozen, claustrophobic town of Iron Lake, New York. The premise is instantly compelling. The isolation, the constant cold, and the haunting presence of his now-grown son, Harrison, create a pressure cooker that feels both fresh and true to the character. The supporting cast, from the sharp, intuitive Police Chief Angela Bishop to the complex local rich kid Kurt Caldwell, is perfectly chosen, their interactions with "Jim" layered with tension and mystery. Michael C. Hall slips back into the role with terrifying ease, delivering a career-best performance that simmers with buried trauma and desperate paternal longing. The arrival of Harrison (Jack Alcott) provides the series' crucial emotional core and moral conflict, forcing Dexter to confront the legacy of his "Dark Passenger" head-on. The story is crisp, focused, and thrilling, rebuilding the suspense that had grown stale in the original's later years. ### The Verdict **9/10 - A Triumphant, If Flawed, Resurrection** The series earns a **9** because, while it is a masterclass in character-driven tension and features a pitch-perfect, bleakly poetic ending that provides definitive closure, it is not without its significant flaws. As noted, **there were plot holes you could drive a truck through**, particularly in the final act, where conveniences strain credulity in service of the thrilling endgame. However, this does not ultimately detract from the series' immense entertainment value and dramatic power. The greatest **kudos** belongs to the creative team for having the courage to keep it to one taut, self-contained season and for delivering the definitive, unflinching, and thematically perfect ending that Dexter Morgan's saga demanded. *New Blood* is a brilliant act of narrative redemption.… Expand
