I have Dexter SE01 on my hard drive. Will have to get round to watching it. I think I watched bits of episode 1 and 2, but its on my "to watch list". I love the breakfast opening credits sequence. Always made me gag for bacon & eggs. Do they still have them?

Just watched.
Last 2 minutes.. FUUUUCCCK.
This Isaac chap is a bit of a badass,
I'm struggling to accept that he just talked the barman into offing himself though. And Batista's reasoning for thinking that it's not a straight-forward suicide is a bit... tenuous.
Pretty much, yeah. All those other things were major plot devices; this feels like they've just quickly brute-forced a way to keep the larger story ticking over without wasting too much time on the how's and the when's. Which is good in the grander scheme of things, it just made me go hmm.
It just all felt a bit contrived.
You'd think the doting father of two young kids would hesitate before voluntarily putting the gun to his head and pulling the trigger. And then somebody *had* to have a problem with the perfectness of it all otherwise that whole bit would've been a complete waste of time.
I thought it was pretty average. The season as a whole, not just the climax.
I think we were spoiled with Trinity to be honest, they're never going to better that season or him as a general badass.
And yeah, the ending was pretty obvious.
It feels a bit "safe" at times, like they're afraid of pushing the boundaries or what the audience is likely to accept.

Paying 2 boys to lure the guy to his car and then kidnapping him in broad daylight isn't really Dex's style, it has to be said.
La Guerta had to go one way or another, she was getting too close.

Not sure if like. One more season might make an otherwise great series with a potentially perfect ending(if they altered this seasons end) to a drawn out one.
Have to see, but they do need to pull a good one out of their arse.

Name a US TV program that accomplishes that? I can't honestly think of a single one other than American Horror Story which only occasionally pushes the taste boundaries. They pander to audience sensitivities far too much in US, still afraid of christian moral outrage.

Since the next season is the last the writers can go where ever the fuck they like
As for Hannah,
it's left kind of open ended. It's not impossible she'll reappear next year.
