Thanks for posting this! Great reminder that Dexter ended last season realizing he was just a run-of-the-mill psychopathic serial killer only to enter this season somehow being a special! serial killer! with! real emotions!

I agree - the introduction of Zach produced at least the chance of some interesting potential outcomes for the final season. I thought perhaps he would be a rabid dog out of control, maybe he would kill Deb, leaving Dexter to deal with the consequences of his choices. But, NOPE! Just another victim in the Dexter as…

I thought this show was insanely funny and charming, start to finish. Maybe cause I haven't watched the web series? (…which I am now off to check out…)

I'm hoping something happens where Jesse manages to get out of the car, like they were showing toward the end, and that Walt's discarded gun comes into play. This show is way too detail oriented to let a discarded gun go unused.

I think Walt and Jessie will be forced to cook together, and maybe will join forces again to get out from under Uncle Jack's control. What happens from there, I don't know, but the opening sequence in episode 9 leaves me very nervous.

OMG the Zeebo episode! Gave me skin-crawlies for a week. I hate clowns, and the off-camera threats, the unseen villain were very effective.

"And he's got that whole potato body fiasco going"

"Michael C. Hall and Yvonne Strahovski didn’t sell “sexual tension” so
much as they sold “Someone farted, and it wasn’t me, so by process of
elimination, it had to be you.”"

I felt like Hannah's appearance was jumping the shark for me. The whole thing is so contrived, and their conversations are painful. They don't say anything of value, and the forced chemistry is unbearable.

Great call on Dex's convenient sexuality, that inconsistency has always bothered me. If you recall, he was also played as way more  of a typical psychopath in the beginning, too. The show seemed to be telling us that he was incapable of love and emotion, but now we're supposed to buy that he's not only capable of both…

Send him to join Theon. Cruelest torture ever. I have a hard time watching those scenes.
