TV: ‘Dexter’ Has Blood in His Eyes
“Renewed, recharged, refocused with nothing to stop Dexter from being Dexter.”
That’s the first tagline in the teaser for Showtime’s forthcoming sixth season of “Dexter”, which returns this fall.
“Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall) spent Season Five atoning for the death of his wife, Rita. He committed to being a part of her children’s lives and entered into a deep, passionate relationship with Lumen, unlike anything he’d ever had before. But Dexter’s need to kill overpowers his desire for human connection. And now that one person knows the truth about him, and a few others are close, how much longer will America’s favorite serial killer be able to keep his dark side a secret?”
Molly Parker recently joined the cast along with Colin Hanks. My only request is that the show recognize that they’re in the sixth season and let sh*t hit the fan. Season five’s finale was super weak sauce.
