Dexter

[LaserSVT]

Or he's really a lumberjack and the whole thing was just him day dreaming.

[OreoStang]

Agreed

I'm not sure whether I liked it. It was definitely emotional - almost as much as the episode when Rita died. Yes, it was unrealistic (i.e. Dex walking out with Deb's body, Dex somehow surviving the storm, etc.), but in some ways wasn't the whole series? I think the ending was very deep. Dex spent the whole series slowly becoming more and more like normal people. Towards the end of this season he finally ditched Harry and the voice-overs of him talking to himself almost ceased. Right when it appeared he had almost become normal, he is met with the biggest tragedy of his life - Deb's death. As he stood on his balcony looking at the ocean right before he went to kill Deb, he said something like "I spent my whole life trying to feel like normal people and now I wish it would just stop." At that point he's truly realized that he's been at the center of all that wrong in his life and the ones he's loved and the rest of the episode, and especially the very end, is him punishing himself for all that he's done. Living the rest of his life driving a logging truck and having little, if any, interaction with any more normal people for the rest of his life is his ultimate self punishment. Emotionally speaking, he got right to where he wanted to be and now has none of it only to live the rest of his life alone living with all that he thinks he screwed up.

Just my 2 cents...

Also in a few years it means a distraction free murder spree once all the hype settles and they realize there is big money in logging alone Dexter...

Is this the final season?

[paul_376]

Yes

[KBScobravert]

I really expected to see Harry when Dexter was putting Deb in the ocean. Either that or I expected to see Dexter realize Harry was not with him at that moment. They left a lot to the audience's own interpretation of the show.

[yellowstang]

Finally watched the last 3 episodes tonight. Yeah, the last one sucked huge hairy donkey balls IMO. At least Breaking Bad had a good ending!

[Cobraman]

What a great show, Didn't want it to end. Pretty emotional ending episodes - ending was bland. Would have liked to see more.

[Cannon88]

I hated the entire last season.

[Cobraman]

I don't think there was a season that I didn't like

[Cannon88]

I loved it for a while, but that last season just went to crap.

[Mike]

I loved it for a while, but that last season just went to crap.

I agree. This was easily my favorite TV series, but the last two seasons were shit.

Curious how many years till an at minimum one season spin off happens....
