Dexter: Original Sin

Thank you for this series ,and most important its nearly impossible to have a bad finale this time. It is exacly what i personally and i guess most of Dexter fans needed after the disasterous finale of new blood. Cant wait for the next episode, the vibes from the original series hit so hard , the cast seems great picks overall ,main actor with Halls voice in the background is almost like he is playing all over again. Music and songs lovely, script also very nice for a pilot episode ,everything seem to go in the right direction ,but im so scared to be happy because this was exactly how we all felt with new blood as well. But hey at least we have a Dexter series again.

After Dexter new blood that I really enjoyed I was some what skeptical. A sequel that takes place in the past, not a easy task to pull off. We already know who dies, and what happens with the characters. Positively surprised, it has the Dexter vibe and I don't understand how some people rate this low. Throughout good acting by well known actors. I think they succeeded in building a Miami in the 90's feel with the music and wardrobe.

I was initially skeptical to the lead actor playing Dexter since I didn't think he fit the role but he grew on me and I do think he was a good pick for this role. All things added up I really enjoy this show.

I need to start off this review by saying how much I absolutely loved Dexter. I loved it so much that I've watched it all the way through several times and was never bored. Then came Dexter: New Blood in 2021 and even though it wasn't as good as the original I still enjoyed it. The ending to both of those shows were awful, especially Dexter: New Blood. Now comes Dexter: Original Sin with the origin story of a young Dexter Morgan and how he became everyone's favorite serial killer. It also brings back the younger version of most of the original characters too. I don't know how they keep doing it but none of the Dexter shows disappoint. All 3 are a fun watch. I hope to see this Dexter series go for several more seasons.

I wasn't sure what to expect going in but ended up being pleasantly surprised how much it felt like I was watching the old Dexter series. In the first series, Dexter would often recall a period from his past and in this latest series it's like going back to those scenes, but expanded. Another thing, as dark and sad as the original series was, it was full of dark humour as well. This latest series is even more so. I hope the whole series is as good as the first episode.

The acting is spot on. I almost lost it when I saw a young Bautista, HA! And oh my god, don't get me starter on Deb! And last, a great portrayal of a young Dexter.

Dexter is easily one of my favorite tv shows of all-time and one of the few shows I can watch all the way through several times over without getting bored. It's hard for me to put into words how much I loved the original show. The only thing that's not good about it is the ending. Even though the ending was pretty bad but that still doesn't take away from how good the show is overall. So with that said I was really looking forward to Dexter: Original Sin and it did not disappoint. Patrick Gibson who plays a young Dexter Morgan absolutely kills it, as does the rest of the cast. This is a must watch for any fan of Dexter.
