unpopular opinion: season 7 was actually good and new blood is even worse than 8, but both sucks because they lost the dexter atmosphere and cinematography
For me Dexter was an interesting idea back then and I loved watching it. Nowadays it is just a show for a handsome guy women should like because of his dark side.
It’s probably in the interest of brevity but Kim didn’t bootstrap her way through the Bar. Her lawyer schooling was paid for by HHM. Doesn’t mean she didn’t earn it but there is a difference in what she did and what Jimmy did.
Loved the show, but barely make it through season 6. Its so depressing, as good as the show was we get that mess at the end. To me once Danny Glover left, the heart of the show left with him.
Hey Slip Maker! You reached out on one of my videos to work together. I just followed you on twitter the other day if you want to reach out there. I have something we could work on together
Harrison’s character was such a lame reprisal of former roles in the original series. He just became another apprentice that Dex takes under his wing. In some ways, he’s more layered as Dexter’s son, but less compelling in others. We never get those bombastic blowout fights that we saw between Miguel and Dexter in Season 3. It also seemed like the show worked too hard to correct the sins of the original finale. The discovery of Dexter by the lady sheriff after a few minutes of sleuthing on Google and his subsequent arrest and interrogation just felt really unearned. Possibly because they had nothing to do with the huge attention-grabbing MURDER he commits in the season premier.
I have to say I disagree with your characterization of Sids showers scene. I think she was just a curious kid while David’s assault of her was about having power over her. The “wet glass” comment is here saying the experience wasn’t as magical as she expected sex to be not her lamenting she was graped. That’s just my interpretation but ultimately I don’t think what she did is as bad as what David did.
Obviously I'm gonna have differing opinions, but I'm flabbergasted Conventions of Space and Time ranked so high. Easily worse than GI Jeff, Introduction to Finality, or Intro to Recycled Cinema, imho. Though I do like Recycled Cinema just because it's asinine.
I LOVE this show. I was hooked since ep.1 because of how well executed it was, & w/such love & care for the previous mythology. The narrative was fluent enough, & it was scene after scene of awesome effects that were fresh, yet an obvious evolution of Sam Raimi's previous lure. I don't think there was a single disappointing episode, & despite them not quite nailing the landing, it's always highly entertaining.
The intrigue, betrayal and great dialogue is what made it great. The odd action sequence is fun, esp Red Wedding & Blackwater, but the politics was it for me. Littlefinger was underused
Is that thing about Chiyo only existing because "tumblr" complained about representation a source: trust me bro kind of thing or is there any legitimate reason to believe it?
To me Lalo felt less like a Prequels character and more like a Solo character. "This is how Han Solo got his gun!" "This is how Hector Salamanca got his bell!"
