"I don't know, alot about the series has made me think, "where else can they go with this?" Dexter is BY FAR one of my favorite TV shows, but a lot of times it seems like the execution of things is a little too neat or predictable. Season 1, "O, Dexter's a sociopath cus he saw his mom's murder. Trauma = sociopath, we get it!" Season 2, "Crazy wild card Lila and disturbed CoWorker? EZ FIX! *dead*" Even look at the season finale, a big part of the episode was him redoing the episode introduction slightly differently... I know he liked his newfound freedom, but I think we can all admit that was filler in a big way. They could've just as easily inserted a bunch of witty phrases Dexter says to himself while some more plot is developed, assuming they had it... (maybe address the deb/lundy thing, or insert Angel again?)

Basically, this leads me to wonder where Season 3 is going to go. Season 1 had another killer, so that's probly out. Season 2 had him almost being caught, so again, nix that. The 2nd book has Dexter begin to train Cody as a killer, so could that be in the future? Also how is LaGuerta going to tie into all of this? If you ask me, she seems like a loose cannon, herself. Doakes' death -and- public humiliation seems to have made her more than a little unstable.

I just don't want Dexter to become one of those shows that goes on, just because it can. Hopefully they won't decide to make up random plots that don't fit the characters, but how many 'natural' storylines can really be explored here? Already I thought Lila was cutting it close, same with Doakes' imprisonment. And the suicide of Harry? that seemed really out of place. The need a way to clean up the Harry sideplots so it doesn't seem like they are just pulling them out of their asses... make it seem more realistic. *Best hopes for the show, we can't let it die out!*"

"...or dudette..."

"It felt unfinished to me - unsatisfying. Those two had such intense chemistry - they could have made it a great scene. I think they wimped out. There were some dark places they could have taken it and they got scared. "

"That is a very good way to put it. I however wouldn't have wanted the Lila thing carried over to season three. I think the writers are trying to start fresh next season. I'm glad she died, but the scene could've been more dramatic and satisfying to me."

"I started reading the new book (Dexter in the dark) and Doakes is still alive.....but he has lost his arms & legs and his tongue. So I dont know how that happened but Dex and Rita are getting Hitched."
