Dexter: Resurrection Still Has a Chance to Fix Its Previous Mistakes
Dexter is back. Again. Michael C. Hall teases the new show and fans hope for a great season. The series aims to redeem itself after two divisive finales. Any chance it will?
The first trailer for Dexter: Resurrection is here and Dexter Morgan is better than ever. Or should we say more alive than ever?
After two controversial endings, the series is ready for another shot at redemption, and this time the stakes are higher than ever. Fans are really hoping that this version will bring back the Original Sin vibe. And judging by the trailer, it must be the case.
Fans Are Hopeful to See Dexter: Resurrection
“I’m cautiously optimistic, on one hand how can they f– it up three times? On the other hand it’s Dexter they absolutely can f– it up a third time. My main concern is they wrote themselves into a corner, everyone knows who the BHB is now. I’d be down for a Dexter on the run season but they’ve pretty much confirmed this is not a limited series,” Redditor Interesting-City118 said.
“I’m hoping for something closer to what they captured with Original Sin. New Blood missed the part where Dexter was actually funny as well as brutal. Original Sin was delightful and I’m hyped for that shows next season. This has a chance to correct the balance,” Redditor dagreenman18 wrote.
How Resurrection Could Right Past Dexter Wrongs
Speaking of balance, the show does promise a new direction. The trailer strikes a balance of intrigue and comedy that made us fall in love with Dexter in the first place.
It would also be interesting to see the characters' dynamics. The stakes feel really high this time around. Now that Dexter's identity as the Bay Harbor Butcher is public knowledge, the show has to navigate entirely new waters.
But most of all, we're excited to see Michael C. Hall reprise his role as Dexter Morgan and return to our screens.
