Starting this series I had such little expectations which I am sure is the same response almost every watcher had, even including the hardcore fans of Dexter. It really seemed like this was going to be a cash grab and nothing more. Nevertheless, the past few episodes have continued to prove that statement wrong, with episode 7 having one of the most shocking plot twists, and episode 8 setting things into place for the final two episodes of the series. The focus on some of the OG characters from Dexter being brought into the lens and also cameos of some of the original characters has been fantastic and feels natural and not just something that's done to "wow" the loyal fans. With all that being said, I cannot WAIT for the final two episodes within the coming weeks.
Not only is this good. But now we are getting to the same quality of the first four seasons of the original. The writing, acting and cinematography were impeccable. It seems like the horrid original ending has been put far behind this franchise especially with the success of New Blood making up for it. I'm not all for dragging out a franchise but if the spin offs are gold keep them coming (The walking dead's have been good as well come to think of it). I only hope they can end this on an impeccable note and if resurrection is at the same quality I cannot wait. I thought this was going to be horrible but I'm going to have to eat my words.
I had an amazing experience watching this episode, plot, characters, plot twists, perfect dramatic flashbacks lines as well as original suspenseful lines. I really felt like I was watching original Dexter, and sometimes even better version of it!! I don't remember when I was enjoying serious this much for the last time!!! Every I REPEAT every line in the episode was just outstanding!! I didn't expect that the prequel show could affect me and amaze me this much, really.. I hardly reccommend every fan of Dexter or just a regular Dexter enjoyer to watch this episode! I assure you, you won't be disappointed..

Absolute cinema from beginning to end, with countless shocks and intense events that were executed seamlessly. The pacing was masterful, keeping viewers on edge while delivering each twist with precision. The writing, direction, and performances were top-notch, making this episode a standout in both Dexter and New Blood. Every moment was crafted with care, ensuring an unforgettable experience. From character arcs to cinematography, everything felt meticulously planned. This may very well be one of the best episodes in the entire series, leaving a lasting impact on fans , All we are hoping for is a great ending.

I think this is probably one of the best episodes of Dexter that I've ever seen. And I say this, including the original series. Very realistic and concise plot, all things connect in a wealth of details. All the callbacks were a welcome surprise - almost building on nostalgia, every scene taught me something. For a die hard fan of Dexter such as myself this episode provided clarity. It reminded me of why I love this series so much. Albeit excited when it comes to anything Dexter, I was having a hard time placing Deb - Jennifer Carpenter set the bar for the role very high. But now it feels like Molly Brown finally stepped into Jennifer's shoes in every sense. Everything is coming together and it feels like home now. On another note, Harry Morgan is absolutely to blame for everything that unfolded in both Dexter and Debra's lives. Next episode is going to be a wild ride.
