Horror Dexter - Part 6

[Roose Bolton]

The stuff with the barrel girls is genuinely some of the darkest material the show ever covered.

 

[Captain Tired]

Jordan Chase is the 3rd best villain of the show.

I'd rank him higher if we'd gotten just a bit more of the unrestrained sliminess we saw when he was finally about to be killed. He was good though. Just a little underdeveloped and perhaps a little too underplayed by the actor, ultimately.

 

[Prison Mike]

I'm thinking he may take Harry's role in this.

I was thinking Debra would take that role…as his dark passenger.

 

[Filmfreak]

I was thinking Debra would take that role…as his dark passenger.

Maybe. Is Carpenter confirmed?

 

[Pittman4Two]

I'll give it a shot. Here's hoping that after the heavily criticized finale and subpar last few seasons, the producers and MCH took their time to refresh their minds on what Dexter is all about.

‘Sucker Punch’: Jamie Chung Wants a Zack Snyder Director’s Cut – The Hollywood Reporter

You were also cast in the Dexter revival. How’s that experience been going?
The experience has been great. It’s the original showrunner, Clyde Phillips, who showran seasons one through four.

That announcement was music to every Dexter fan’s ears.
(Laughs.) Yeah, in essence, it’s exactly what Dexter fans want. The character of Molly Park is so fun and vibrant. And true-crime podcasting is a fairly new medium in terms of true crime, and introducing that into Dexter’s world is another threat to revealing his identity. So it’s been really fun. (Laughs.) Really fun.

Years ago, Clyde said what his ending would’ve been had he remained in charge of the show, and it was pretty intriguing to say the least. So I’ll be so curious to see if he sticks to it or not. Either way, we’re in good hands.
Yeah, I think he sticks to his word. He’s also one that does not budge when it comes to his vision. (Laughs.) So I think he’s going to do exactly what he wants to do. Eight or nine years ago, I did an interview that asked, “What would be your dream role?” And I mentioned, “It’s sad because it’s never going to happen with Dexter coming to an end, but just to be on a show of that calibre — and with that talent — would be a dream.” So I guess I was really putting it out there.

John Lithgow On ‘Dexter’ Return, ‘Perry Mason’ Emmy Nom, More – Deadline

The two-time Oscar nominee signed on to a revival of the Showtime drama in June, as we told you first. He only was called to set for one day—”in fact, one afternoon.” But when he arrived for the shoot, he was excited to learn about the story the revival is telling.

“I learned that it’s completely different from [the original series]. Kind of like Perry Mason, it’s a reimagination,” Lithgow told Deadline of the 10-episode limited series, show-run by Clyde Phillips. “They don’t take it into a different era, but it’s in a different part of the world, a different part of the country, and a whole new cast of characters.”

At the same time, he shared, “there are all sorts of wonderful surprises and callbacks from the first few seasons.”

Lithgow said he first learned of the Dexter revival when Phillips called him, five months before the shoot. “He said, ‘Can you come just to spend one day in The Berkshires?’” the actor recalled. “I said, ‘Of course I can,’ and that’s exactly what it was.”

Dexter was created by James Manos Jr., airing for eight seasons on Showtime between 2006 and 2013. The show centered on the mild-mannered character of the same name played by Michael C. Hall. By day, Dexter worked as a blood-spatter analyst for the Miami police. By night, though, he was a serial killer—one who happened to target other murderers.

Lithgow appeared throughout Season 4 as Arthur Mitchell, the seemingly normal family man, who turned out to be The Trinity Killer. While the character was a fan-favorite, landing Lithgow his fifth Emmy in 2010, he was murdered by Dexter in the Season 4 finale.

Some naturally wondered, then: How might Trinity return in the Showtime revival?

“As all Dexter fans know, we saw the end of the Trinity Killer, so that by definition means it’s a flashback,” offered Lithgow. “It was just wonderful to rejoin that gang—including Michael and Jennifer Carpenter and Clyde Phillips.”

‘Dexter’: Jennifer Carpenter Returns For Revival On Showtime – Deadline

I'd love to believe they were just gonna say the last few seasons were someone's nightmare and Deb is still alive and kicking and not generally ruined as a character, but I understand that realistically she's probably just the new Harry, lol.

‘Dexter’: Jennifer Carpenter Returns For Revival On Showtime – Deadline

Glad it’s confirmed. I’m also assuming she’ll be one of the guest at Comic-Con too.

 

[Pennywise]

So hyped for the mini-series!

 

[Pennywise]

 

[Pennywise]

 

[Mysteryman]

Yeah... season 4 is the best season.

Wasn’t season 4 the Trinity Killer?

 

[kguillou]

Cant front, that trailer looks good. Im in, lets end this series on a high note.

 

[Broseph44]

Wasn’t season 4 the Trinity Killer?

Yeah

 

[GREEN =w= DAY]

Trailer was amazing! Feels more like a big budget movie than it does a series. Can’t wait

 

[Slick]

Clyde said the ending will make the internet explode. The only thing I can think of is Harrison somehow playing a part in it and he kills his dad.

I mean typing that it doesn’t make sense but I don’t know. Wouldn’t Harrison be in his late teens by now?

 

[Prison Mike]

I was thinking maybe he actually gets arrested for being the BHB

 

[Slick]

I’d be fine if it ended like that.

 

[kguillou]

I do wonder if they're shaping this to be the "series finale," though or if its going to leave a door open to do more if this is successful.

 

[The Shape]

I hope this is a one and done. It would be better for them to pour everything into this season and come up with a definitive end of sorts, rather than holding back or leaving room for more to come. This should be like a limited series.

 

[Filmfreak]

It's supposed to be a limited series so I'm guessing it will have a more definitive ending.

 

[DyeLorean]

Oh, I get the feeling that if this season does well they're gonna keep going until it gets crappy again.
