Dexter: Original Sin

Thank you for this series ,and most important its nearly impossible to have a bad finale this time. It is exacly what i personally and i guess most of Dexter fans needed after the disasterous finale of new blood. Cant wait for the next episode, the vibes from the original series hit so hard , the cast seems great picks overall ,main actor with Halls voice in the background is almost like he is playing all over again. Music and songs lovely, script also very nice for a pilot episode ,everything seem to go in the right direction ,but im so scared to be happy because this was exactly how we all felt with new blood as well. But hey at least we have a Dexter series again.

I wasn't sure what to expect going in but ended up being pleasantly surprised how much it felt like I was watching the old Dexter series. In the first series, Dexter would often recall a period from his past and in this latest series it's like going back to those scenes, but expanded. Another thing, as dark and sad as the original series was, it was full of dark humour as well. This latest series is even more so. I hope the whole series is as good as the first episode.

The acting is spot on. I almost lost it when I saw a young Bautista, HA! And oh my god, don't get me starter on Deb! And last, a great portrayal of a young Dexter.

After Dexter new blood that I really enjoyed I was some what skeptical. A sequel that takes place in the past, not a easy task to pull off. We already know who dies, and what happens with the characters. Positively surprised, it has the Dexter vibe and I don't understand how some people rate this low. Throughout good acting by well known actors. I think they succeeded in building a Miami in the 90's feel with the music and wardrobe.

I was initially skeptical to the lead actor playing Dexter since I didn't think he fit the role but he grew on me and I do think he was a good pick for this role. All things added up I really enjoy this show.

Well what can I say?

Having watched the first episode of this prequel to Dexter, I am absolutely blown away. Even though it's been a long while since the original, the show feels incredibly authentic. From the opening title sequence to the younger versions of the characters, their mannerisms and personalities are spot on. It's a faithful recreation of the original's essence and hopefully serves as a strong build-up to Dexter: Resurrections. Fans of the series are in for a treat!

If you're a film junkie like myself then you'll appreciate the time and effort that Clyde Phillips and everyone else put in to make this happen.

I enjoyed it. Not my place to say where it could have been improved. It is what it is.

Thank you.

I went into this with pretty low expectations and mostly just excited for Resurrection. The beginning of the first episode was cringey with the edits and the CGI cop car, and I thought "oh boy, this is going to flop". By the end of the first episode, I was eating crow, as the actors embodied their characters perfectly and the story showed immense promise.

While we know much of the backstory already, the first episode held a couple of surprises that add to the depth of some of the characters we've grown to know and love, and adds some background into the decisions made by those characters. Only one episode in and I'm hooked already!
