• Dexter never fails to deliver.

  Always outdoing itself season after incredible season.

  • Except for Season 5. Let’s act like that never happened

    This is great casting for sure. Could be setting itself up to be the best season yet if they play it right.

    • I concur… Season Five was a joke.

      Here’s to hoping there is a monster story to go along with all these roles being stunt casted.

      • I disagree, I thought season 5 was pretty damn good. Only season that was, overall, a disappointment for me would be season 3.

• Eddy’s the best. One of the most underrated actors today. I guess I’ll start watching Dexter now.

• Let us hope this show moves into new territory. Last season Dexter and Boardwalk Empire had the worst payoffs. I was so mad that gave all my attention theses show. Instead giving a true gem like terriers recognition. Every I post. Shawn Ryan is the True Master.

• SOOO Happy! This man is an incredible actor. I will watch him in anything. I see his name and I’m sold.

  • Loved reading this news. Crazy about EJO ever since Miami Vice, and now he’s back where it started. Cant wait to see him shine on Dexter. Only trouble is, who will I be rooting for??

• The Nicest Kindest Man In Show Business. Brilliant Casting , A Truly Gifted Actor. Can’t Wait To View “The Prof”

• We were going to give up Showtime (and Dexter) – but EJO will keep us on for another season.

• Season 5 was frustrating as it had far too much Stiles and far too little of Jonny Lee Miller (star of Frankenstein at the NT in London this year). Season 5 only got interesting when Miller was allowed to act.

  Welcome back, Admiral.

  • Admiral? How about Lieutenant? LOVED him on Miami Vice!

    • Lieutenant?? Don’t you think he would have deserved a promotion by now?? LOL. But MV was great, with him in it (I always skip the episodes when he’s not in it)
