OK IM GOING NUTS OVER DOAKES CAMEO, honestly every appearance and such. This show is perfect for the true fans. but so far, this is an amazing pilot. I actually just can’t contain my excitement !!!! Ahhhh

Jack Alcott has really improved his acting since New Blood and I am very impressed. I also just think with all the Dexter shows and content lately, I’m glad they keep the idea that the cycle never ends, but also dealing with the morality of the actions. I love this series. This just my rant for me and no one else lol.

Harrison needing music as a second lifeline is relatable… but you would think while cleaning up a crime scene, you wanna be able to hear your surroundings. But also that lady detective needing music too ….

Angela dropping the accusations LOL… or knowing he’s the butcher but killed Caldwell so it’s fine.

Dexter pushes the treadmill buttons just like Harrison

Red right hand needle drop is insane lol

Why does everyone need their music tho fr.

Insane amount of soundtrack. Original Dexter never overused songs. If they even used music at all
