Dexter - Season 4 (TV series)

[DjfunkmasterG]

You're welcome... BTW, there is another video on you tube that shows the end of Episode #11 of Season 4 which actually made me go, FUCK YEAH, but GODDAMMIT.... I gotta wait another weak for closure.

WHOA.... Did the show just cop out or was it brilliant writing? Anyone who watched the last episode of the season will understand this question.

[axlish]

Definitely not a cop out.   I cannot imagine telling Julie that this is her last episode, and that it has been a great run. When you contrast the dialogue between Trinity and Dexter at the kill scene, with the results we get minutes later, it is a pretty chilling, and well written exchange. There was an interview with Hall and Lithgow after the show. I think Lithgow put it best when he said "I don't envy the writers for next season."

Superb finale, it opens up so many possibilities for next season. The ending was one of many I'd imagined, but actually seeing it happen was pretty shocking.

Interview with julie Benz from DEXTER... DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THE FINALE FOR SEASON 4 http://www.tvguidemagazine.com/news/...enz--3481.html

Omfg, literally just finished watching the Dexter finale. Holy shit!   Kinda harsh too. I really liked that he had this normal family thing going on, and she was kind of a sweet character. Doubly harsh as she had two kids, and their real father was a total fuck up, and now Dexter has their own child and the other two, and now his kid has been "born in blood" in the same way. I can totally understand why the ending was the way it was, but aye - it's certainly shocking to see it. I'll have to revisit the final scenes for added context considering the outcome. Also interesting that someone mentioned in the comments on that TV Guide article - will Benz return to join Harry in Dexter's conscience? I think that'd be quite cool - like the poster said, two sides of a conscience. It'd also help 'ease in' the viewers to her being dead. Bloody nora! Season 4 of Dexter is some of the best telly this decade, that's for damn sure! I'm putting this one tied first with season 1 personally.

ONE OF MY FAVORITE MOMENTS OF SEASON 4 - SPOILER - Don't watch unless you have seen at least the first 11 episodes of Season 4

The final scene between Dex and Arthur is given even more creepy depth when you re-watch it, realizing Arthur is just relishing in the fate that was about to befall Dex.

The final scene between Dex and Arthur is given even more creepy depth when you re-watch it, realizing Arthur is just relishing in the fate that was about to befall Dex. I posted just that on IMDB... I called foreshadowing what was to come. When They talk family and Arthur justs miles at Dexter you knew something was up, but what a shocker that was at the end at whom it was... honestly wasn't expecting that I was expecting another member.

[axlish]

I don't really buy the "born in blood" theory that Dexter is going on about. Watching what appears to be your mother fall asleep is a lot different on the psyche than watching your mother get chainsawed to death while alive. I'm no Freud, but I doubt the kid would have any memory of that event in the slightest. I'm guessing that the two older kids will live with their grandparents, as their connection to Dexter is not one of "blood". I'll agree with Lithgow again, I don't envy the writers of season 5.

[kortick]

That was one hell of an ending. I knew that something was up when Lithgow went to Dexters apt and found what he did, but I didnt think they would go that far. And I think they are definitely setting up a story arc with Dexters sister. All in all this is becoming one of the best shows on TV, cuz now they have suceeded in making it so the viewer has no idea how far they will go and things u thought wouldnt happen just might.

[DjfunkmasterG]

About to watch it again... I love my TIVO do the Trinity Shuffle

[kidgloves]

Noooooooooooo. Jesus Christ. I wasn't expecting that at all. Not at all. Shit.....

[DjfunkmasterG]

Noooooooooooo. Jesus Christ. I wasn't expecting that at all. Not at all. Shit..... Came out of left field eh?

[kidgloves]

Came out of left field eh? Just a bit. Looking back though, they do need to shake it up. The last few series have been about Dexter adjusting to normal life. We can't have that can we? The situation with his sister throughs this all up in the air. Especially what she found out and how she will look at him with the way this series ended.
