Dexter: Resurrección

Honestly, I liked the first two episodes of the new Dexter series I won't say anything legendary or mythical, but they brought back the old feeling, the Dexter we know,the calm one who you understand from his looks and silence more than his words. You feel that he's back, but not the same as before, as if he's matured, as if he's tired, as if he's no longer killing just to kill, he's thinking more, calculating, and this made me like his character more. The directing was excellent, the cinematography reflects the tension in the story, everything seems a bit gloomy, dark, cold... exactly the atmosphere we want to see Dexter in. And the music? Simple but it conveys the feeling, it makes you live the atmosphere of the moment. Dexter's relationship with Harrison seems to be the focus, and it's clear that Harrison has a conflict inside him, but it hasn't appeared much yet, but I feel that he will have a big role ahead in the future.

I knew it was going to have the best comeback ever.. i have goosebumps, this is my childhood show, my first tv show ever, it's in my blood.. it's so good. I can't say too much even if i feel so much, i feel alive again.. i don't know it's hard to explain in words, you just feel it in your bones, that old emotion, the fire in the soul, the need, it's like you just reunited with your best friend after a long time of not seeing with each other. I'm already used to the writing, the creators of the show are just pure geniuses.. they never disappointed, this show is the best show on television, i love it, we are back, TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT!

Dexter: Resurrection marks the third revival of the iconic Showtime series, and surprisingly, it's the most satisfying since the Trinity Killer arc. Picking up weeks after New Blood, Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall) awakens from a coma in a New York hospital, having miraculously survived being shot by his son, Harrison. From there, the show dives into familiar territory - but with a fresh setting, sharper writing, and a darker emotional core.

Michael C. Hall is magnetic as ever. This isn't the Dexter of Miami Metro or Iron Lake - he's older, more haunted, and emotionally raw. Hall brings a tempered intensity to the role, balancing sardonic wit with genuine pathos. His internal monologues are back, but they're more reflective, less performative. The show leans into Dexter's weariness, making his return feel earned rather than forced.

The New York setting is a smart move. The city's anonymity and chaos offer Dexter both cover and temptation. He takes up work as a rideshare driver, blending into the urban sprawl while quietly hunting predators. The cinematography captures the grit and pulse of the city, and the soundtrack - featuring moody tracks like Nick Cave's "Red Right Hand" - adds to the show's eerie atmosphere.

The supporting cast is stacked. Peter Dinklage plays Leon Prater, a billionaire with a twisted obsession for serial killers. Uma Thurman is his enigmatic enforcer, Charley - cool, lethal, and captivating. Guest stars like Krysten Ritter, Neil Patrick Harris, Eric Stonestreet, and David Dastmalchian play members of a secret society of killers, each bringing a unique flavor to the chaos. Their scenes are some of the most entertaining and disturbing in the series.

Jack Alcott returns as Harrison, now working as a bellhop in Midtown. His arc is quietly heartbreaking - a young man trying to outrun his father's legacy while slowly succumbing to the same darkness. His scenes are filled with tension and emotional weight, especially as he begins to show signs of inherited trauma and compulsive behavior.

Angel Batista (David Zayas) also returns, adding a nostalgic yet foreboding presence. His pursuit of Dexter adds a layer of suspense that longtime fans will appreciate. The tension between old friends turned adversaries is palpable, and it's clear Batista won't let go easily.

Showrunner Clyde Phillips, who helmed the best seasons of the original series, brings a steady hand to Resurrection. The writing is tighter, the pacing more deliberate. The show doesn't shy away from its past - it embraces it, flaws and all. It's self-aware, occasionally pulpy, and often emotionally resonant.

Yes, there are plot conveniences and moments that stretch believability. But Dexter has always thrived in that space between logic and lunacy. What matters is that the story feels alive again - messy, macabre, and meaningful.

Final Verdict: 10/10 Dexter: Resurrection is a bold, bloody, and brilliantly executed revival. It honors the original while carving out something new. Whether you're a longtime fan or just diving in, this season is a must-watch. Dexter's back - and he's never been sharper.

Dexter: Resurrection is a thrilling return to form. The writing is sharper than ever, the atmosphere is intense, and Michael C. Hall delivers a flawless performance. The story honors the original while bringing fresh twists that keep you hooked. A must-watch for longtime fans and newcomers alike.

The series has the potential to be the best season ever, the cast is incredible, and the quality compared to the previous seasons is insane.

The pacing is spot on, the tension builds with every episode, and every detail feels carefully crafted. Finally, a series that manages to reinvent itself without betraying its roots.

Dexter: Resurrection brings our favorite serial killer back and I'm here for it! I missed Dexter so much and was so excited to hear that it was getting revived for this series, especially with the way New Blood ended. Dexter is easily one of my favorite shows of all-time and one of the few shows I can watch all the way through several times over without getting bored. Dexter: New Blood was actually a pretty good show right up until the ending and Dexter: Original Sin was terrific from beginning to end. Now we have Dexter: Resurrection. So far it's the Dexter we've all come to love. I'd absolutely recommend this to any Dexter fans just to see Michael C. Hall back as Dexter. That's worth watching alone and again, the show itself is really good. Let's just all pray they don't botch the ending like they did with Dexter and New Blood.
