A Strong and Logical Return with Minor Flaws
The premiere episode of Dexter: Resurrection delivers a convincing explanation for Dexter's survival, grounding the story in a plausible medical scenario. The emotional core, focusing on Dexter's concern for his son Harrison, is compelling, though Harrison's psychological depth remains underexplored.
The pacing suffers slightly from Dexter's rapid recovery, which feels rushed. The New York setting and the police investigation add fresh tension and complexity, while the return of familiar characters enriches the narrative.
Visually, the episode maintains a dark, stylish tone consistent with the original series. Overall, it's a promising start that sets up intriguing conflicts, though further character development-especially of Harrison-is needed to fully engage the audience.
