Series Plot Synopsis

Dexter‘s plot synopsis: “Orphaned at age three, when his mother was brutally murdered with a chainsaw by drug dealers, Dexter (Michael C. Hall) was adopted by Miami police officer Harry Morgan (James Remar). Recognizing the boy’s trauma and the subsequent development of his sociopathic tendencies, Harry has manipulated Dexter to channel his gruesome bloodlust into vigilantism, killing only heinous criminals who slip through the criminal justice system. To facilitate covering his prolific trail of homicides, Dexter gains employment as a forensic analyst, specializing in blood spatter pattern analysis, for the Miami Metro Police Department. Dexter is extremely cautious and circumspect; he wears gloves and uses plastic-wrapped “kill rooms”, segments the corpses, and disposes of them in the Atlantic Ocean’s Gulf Stream to reduce his chances of detection. Dexter struggles to juggle his double life. Although his homicidal tendencies are deeply unflinching, and he originally claims detachment (via narration), throughout the series he strives to feel and in some cases does feel, normal emotions and maintain his appearance as a socially responsible human being.”

The Finale Re-do

The final three seasons of Dexter sucked. The finale for the series was horrible and idiotic – I couldn’t even review it. It made little sense, as did the season that led to it. Between the two of them, Dexter‘s ending was equal to the mental apathy imbued to viewers by Game of Thrones‘ finale episode. Both were terrible and a complete waste of time.

Clyde Phillips sees Season 9 of Dexter as his and Hall’s opportunity to send Dexter off on a high, well-written (hopefully), plot-hole free (hopefully), and satisfying (hopefully) conclusion, a finale to a story-line that intrigued from the very first episode:

“This was an opportunity to write a second finale for the show. We’re not going to betray the audience and say, ‘Whoops, that was all a dream.’ What happened in the first eight years happened in the first eight years. 10 years, or however many years, have passed by the time this will air, and the show will reflect that time passage. In so far as the ending of the show, this will have no resemblance to how the original finale was. It’s a great opportunity to write a second finale for our show, and Showtime was very gracious about that.”
