    I have not felt that excited about a Dexter episode in a LONG time. I couldn't help but laugh when he managed to string those lies to Deb in the church. You have to truly want to believe something to get taken in during a situation like that...Same with Dexter somehow thinking things were going to be the same between Deb and him. It made me laugh every time. The scene where Dexter entered his apartment to find Deb looking shell-shocked, sitting amidst the mess she made of his apartment...thrilling! I hope this season is good. I couldn't have asked for a better start.

    Yep, an excellent start...and I guess we were all wrong about the scenes from the promo being "a dream". Didn't expect for this development to come about this soon in the season.

    Oh man... I can't wait for the day for that tech guy to die. With all he has done to Dexter and probably planning on doing. I just hope he gets what he deserve, the Dexter WAY. And yea cause he's banging Batista's sister...

    Thanks shinta|hikari for the sig.

    I might just reach nirvana soon. "Are you a serial killer? -Yes". And the preview promises even more of the same tempo next episode.

    I'm glad Dexter finally came clean to Deb, instead of stretching the white lies for half the season. Seriously, it only took Breaking Bad 2 seasons to get to this point. His confession call to Deb in this episode was an interesting uncharacteristic twist for Dexter, but we already know that things are only going to get harder now, considering the captain chick is investigating the blood slide and the Russian mob guys are tracking him down. I'm really not sure how far this can go.

    Lagordita pretty much signed her death sentence.

    Yeah... she's obviously not going to stop until she dies or Dexter is apprehended.

    Lagordita should've been killed seasons ago. Crossing my fingers.

    Deb is just awesome. Her reaction to this is understandable, but it's far more measured than I thought it would've been, at least as things stand. And when she said 'there have to be families out there that are more fucked up than us..." I lol'd, because poor Dex only knows the half of it.

    So season 8 will start shooting earlier, which brings rumors about the season itself being longer, thoughts? does the last season really needs more episodes? will it pull a Breaking Bad and divide it in 2?

    I am really liking Ray Stevenson as the main villain. He is already on to Dexter this early, this just keeps on getting better. I really wanted Lewis dead, good to see that happened so quick.

    I wanted him dead too, but I thought he had some real potential to screw Dexter over... I found his "sinking his boat" attempt a bit lame, considering how much shit he had going for him from the IT side of things. That said, I'm glad he's gone... I wonder if blood spatter was left on Dexter's boat, and if so, will Dexter see it, and how it'll play through the season. I'm sure Lewis' death will come back sooner or later to fuck Dexter over somehow.

    The other thing I want to see is Deb making the connection between Dexter and the guy he let go 2 seasons ago with the motivational speaker (I'm pretty sure that connection hasn't been made yet).

    This season is turning out to be quite nice. Hanna McKay being fucking hot help. Almost makes up for Lumen from season 5. However, those last two episodes, where Dexter finds himself drawn to Hanna, and they start having sex, those were some of the creepiest moments in the entire series for me. I actually shivered when he started freeing her from the plastic bonds on the table that first time around. And now, Debra is asking him to take that bitch out, and man do I get him not wanting to. The drama is thick this season xD.

    Yeah...this season really is making my skin crawl. Other than the fact that she's a murderous bitch, I'm about ready to see Hanna McKay get tabled, but I'm not entirely sure why. It probably has to do with how badly Deb is taking everything, or just how creepy Hanna's relationship with Dex is. And I'll admit to feeling slightly bad for Isaac. This whole thing is motivated by heartbreak. For some reason I thought it was a son he lost, which is just as bad if not worse. And he did do us the public service of murdering Louis. So unfortunate how the battle lines are drawn this season. At least Lagordita looks like she's about to get got.

    edit: Oh, and in a similar (but less drastic) way to Dexter walking up to Sergeant Doakes in season 2 and disarming him, I call bullshit on Dexter walking up to the hitman and slitting his throat. Just utter nonsense, I can't suspend my disbelief. I hate when they do that shit.

    Isaac definitely redeemed himself this episode. I always thought it was strange how emotional he got over victor at the same time that he talked about callously pushing his old teacher down a flight of stairs. Dexter killing the hitman and then fleeing the apt was pretty frustrating to me, though. He could have easily allowed the hitman a shot at Isaac, or at least to serve as a distraction, and even after killing him, he still could've hid the body with plenty of time to hide himself in wait for Isaac to come home.

    Are you guys joking about not realizing Viktor was Isaac's lover? I had a very strong suspicion at the end of the very first episode of the season (when he had that big smile on his face after knowing Viktor was safe and on his way to Kiev). The latter episodes only made this clearer. At the very least, it should have been obvious when he was shown crying over the photo of the two.

    Wow, I am not sure how they did it but they managed to implode what was turning out to be a great season in a single episode.

    I really thought I was watching a sitcom for most of the episode. It was absurd in so many ways.
