Tale
Miami, 1991
When his bloodthirsty impulses can no longer be ignored, young Dexter Morgan must learn to channel his inner darkness as he goes from student to avenging serial killer with the guidance of his father, Harry. Christian Slater is older than James Remar was when Dexter (2006) first aired. Followed by Dexter: Resurrection (2025). I am a huge Dexter fan, through and through.
Like Harry (according to Dexter), change is not easy for me
Dexter (seasons 1-8) is the only series I re-watch all the time. So when Dexter: New Blood came out, at first the change of setting, the coldness, the absence of some beloved cast members, and the lack of humor and Latin music were a huge disappointment to me. However, after watching it as a standalone show (no comparisons to the original), I liked it more. Now, with this new show, of course we’re not used to the new faces in the cast.
Yes, we all wish that Michael C
We all remember that young Dexter, Deb, and Harry looked different, even Laura Moser. However, I think it may be unfair to judge the casting since we’re not in the shoes of the casting directors and producers. I think they had to consider a lot of aspects besides just similar looks. Hall, Jennifer Carpenter, James Remar, and the rest of the original cast could magically play the younger versions of their own characters, but time only goes in one direction.
(Bonus: I really like Christian Slater
He’s awesome as always!) So far, after watching the first episode twice, I like it. I think everyone did a pretty decent job filling those big Dexter shoes. In fact, I can’t deny the fact that I’m now even more excited to watch Dexter: Resurrection after seeing a sneak peek of Dexter being revived in the ER. In short, I think this show is great and I’ll probably like it even more as time goes on.
I think you’ll enjoy it!
If you’re a Dexter fan, go with no specific expectations or judgment. “One Hundred Years of Solitude” is one of the biggest TV and streaming premieres this month. Check out our December schedule for more!
