I cannot find that drat ikea monkey image. I know I had it saved on my old phone and posted it in that season’s thread.

They should do the “it was all a dream” and have Doakes back.

I love it. Or just ignore everything after the s5 premiere and work from there.

They need to bring back the Shield, which ended with Vic Mackey "winning" by being put on a desk job at a professional federal agency* with the implicit understanding that he was too much of a wild card to ever see field service again.

Supposedly fall 2021 but that depends on things being good enough for production to go forward in the spring.

I thought production would start in fall 2021. So it would probably wrap early 2022. Based on that I would guess summer 2022 for more CHICKY HINES

and an absolutely baffling revelation for one of the characters that ALMOST happened in finale, y'all know what I'm talking about)

wizardofloneliness posted:

I'm kind of disappointed on some level that they didn't go through with that insane character twist Sutter wanted though. It would've been incredibly stupid but also extremely hilarious if he'd just casually opened his fridge to reveal a bunch of severed heads. That's the kind of nonsensical poo poo I love.

I assume this is referring to Dutch? Because there was that time he strangled a cat and then they never followed up on it so I am in agreement with the extremely hilarious reveal angle.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:

Never followed up on it? It was the end of that mini-arc.

He was egged on, over and over and over, from Clark Gregg's character, about really understanding the mind of a serial killer. I THINK the guy even told Dutch that it's inside everyone.

So Dutch, being obsessed with his work and understanding everything there is to know about the mind of a killer, kills the cat, and at that moment, realizes that no, he's NOT like them because he's horrified at what he just did.

He proved the guy wrong.


Anyway, I love the character of Dutch so much that I'm super glad that they didn't go through with that stupid poo poo.

Edit: Dexter: ITT we discuss better shows.

I completely forgot that it was the end to that arc. :negative:

I still think the ending would have been really funny though, in a dumb way.

quote:

Brown joins a long line of memorable actors who plays villains opposite Dexter, too, including Jimmy Smits, Colin Hanks, and Edward James Olmos. Fans will no doubt be excited to see what the Dexter team is cooking up for Brown's character to ensure the revival is as gripping as possible.

Yea, the show wasted all of those actors too.

I never finished Dexter and feel pretty good about the decision. If I rewatch what's the recommended stopping point?

s2 or s4.

Everyone loves Lithgow in s4 but the rest of that season was hot loving garbage that he could barely salvage. Definitely a sign of things to come.

Edit - stupid twitter cropping. The quote is "And he went there to lumberjack - working with lumber - but he's constantly surrounded by the sounds of chainsaws, which is very meaningful to Dexter because that's how his mother was killed"

Like others said, a pretty boring first episode. But at least it wasn't outright terrible so :confuoot:

Ghost Harry is way better than ghost Deb. That could definitely change though if she starts to swear a lot more.

Cojawfee posted:

It was an interesting first episode. But I want more head people. I want Harry, Debra, Rita, Lundy, Lindy, Laguerta, ANNNHEEEELLLLL, the creepy bald guy, and Doakes. Maybe even Black SUV guy.

Please god Doakes. This season will be a terrible failure if Doakes doesn't show up to yell at him.

Phenotype posted:

This wasn't a filler episode, though, Dexter massaged the crime scene and followed the police investigation and we saw more from the kidnapped girl and some Dexter and Harrison stuff and a little drama with the girlfriend and her daughter, and found a new unwitting antagonist in Clancy Brown. I don't think they're gonna fall into a murder-of-the-week cycle again, if that was what you were expecting, this series is probably just gonna be about this little town and Dexter and Harrison, and the fallout from this murder and whatever is going on with the kidnapped girls.

I dunno guys, I kinda like it so far. It's a little dumb, but it's fun and compelling and they really did slip right back into the old Dexter feel without missing a beat. It's like night and day compared to some of the other years-later revivals like Arrested Development where they just can't quite capture what made the older seasons tick.

e: I also like Ghost Deb as a way of showing just how hosed up Dexter is underneath the surface -- schizophrenia (schizophrenia?) seems a lot more scary when you're hallucinating about a loved one raging and screaming at you instead of a nice calm old man to talk to.

I wasn't expecting murder of the week, but the pacing just seemed slow.

Could've used a subplot about the annoying boy scout deputy :v:

Is this bad enough to be worth watching yet or does it bring back the sweet hate watch feelings after all these years?

Honestly, no. It's not good, but it's not bad enough to laugh at while watching. Well, maybe a little. It's just barely competent enough and kinda boring.

Audrey is gonna get captured by Clancy Brown and then Harrison will go save her and murder him and then Dexter will have to tearfully murder him(and also Audrey NO WITNESSES)

Season ends with him on a fishing boat in Nova Scotia or some poo poo.

Saying Chad is alive and fine would just bring up the question of "ok, where is he? He killed that white buck, he committed a crime." I don't think "I don't care if he committed crimes, he's alive, get over it" is going to cut it.

But on the other hand, he's rich and white. Also the penalty is just a couple thousand dollar fine.

:rip: Chloe. You were probably the smartest character on the show so you had to go.

I wonder if they will wrap up this Clancy Brown serial killer poo poo by mid season. I'm assuming he will try to kill Harrison to make up for Chloe and then he or Dexter will kill Clancy Brown.

lol the relationship scene with the deputy.
