Dexter: Season 7


That's better. In fact, up until about halfway through the season, this may have been my favorite season of Dexter since the first two. There was a renewed sense of direction, it seemed, as well as a charismatic and haunting main antagonist. Eventually though, the season fell into the same old trappings that have doomed so many previous Dexter runs. It felt like the back half of episodes played out like a "greatest hits of Dexter" collection, with Dexter falling in love, being suspected and pursued by a coworker, teaming up with another killer, and so many other things. Season 8 will be the show's last, and I'm interested enough to check it out on DVD eventually, but frankly I'm glad to see the show coming to an end.

So, no, Trev. There really isn't much worth continuing for if you stopped after Season 2.
