Online Watch Dexter Full Episode Watch Stream HD Video on Internet TV.Debra attempts to cure Dexter of his killer tendencies. Meanwhile, the Mike Anderson case leads to the Ukrainian mob and a vengeful Louis won't stop meddling with Dexter's life.Based on novels by author Jeff Lindsay, Dexter follows the life of Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall), a charismatic blood spatter analyst who works in the forensics at the Miami Metro Police Department. On the outside, Dexter seems like the perfect guy -- he has a sister, Debra (Jennifer Carpenter), that adores him and a steady girlfriend, Rita (Julie Benz), with two kids that look up to him. However, what they don't know is that Dexter moonlights as a serial killer, only he isn't your typical killer. Basing his life on the teachings of his foster father, Dexter only kills people who truly deserve it: he ensures that those who got away with horrible crimes will never kill again.
The seventh season begins right where the last left off: With Deb seeing Dexter plunge a knife into Travis Marshall’s chest, and Dexter trying to explain to Deb what he’s just done.
I’m sure many of you hardcore fans have either seen the opening scenes that Showtime released after Comic-Con, or maybe you’ve seen the spoiler-filled trailers they’ve been running on the channel for about a month, but I was actually very happy with the opening scene. I loved that Deb didn’t let Dexter off the hook immediately.
After her creepy feelings for Dexter from last season (we’ll get back to that later), I was afraid that she’d just let Dexter go after he gave her the usual weak explanations that normally get him out of trouble. That’s why I was so glad to hear her question his excuses, especially considering how lame they were.
“I just lost control”, Dex explains weakly. “Doesn’t explain why he’s wrapped up like that” Deb responds.
You’re right, Deb, it doesn’t! I feel like Dexter’s poor excuses and lies have weaseled him out of so many situations in the past, so it’s good to see somebody call him out. According to the Dexter Wiki, (you can check it out dexter.wikia.com)
Dexter Morgan has killed 117 people! And that’s just the ones that have been confirmed on the show! At a certain point, the people close to him have got to find out the truth.
I also feel like Dexter wasn’t doing himself any favors. He definitely came off as a little too cool and collected after he was caught. He could have acted a bit more amateurish and out of his element, and it probably would have gone a long way to keeping Deb convinced that Travis was a one-time thing.
Instead he says stuff like “I know what I’m doing” (Why would you say that?!), and is a little too quick with solutions and ideas of how to rectify the situation. He was so quick to come to a solution that he actually didn’t realize he’d left Travis’ blood side behind! More on that later!
We got a little more on Louis, Jamie Batista’s boyfriend and newest member of the Miami Metro forensics team. Dex caught Louis going through his computer, and we later found out it was to cancel Dexter’s credit card! We’re not sure yet exactly what Louis’ end game is, but the fact that he has the prosthetic hand from the Ice Truck Killer case AND he knows enough about Dexter to mail it to him, it seems like he knows a little too much about Mr. Morgan. What do you think Louis is going to do? Could he perhaps be the third Moser brother; Dexter and Brian’s baby bro?
With all of these intriguing developments going on, setting up what promises to be a great season, we get to the terrible scene of Mike getting shot.
I’m not saying I was a huge Mike fan, as he never really got a chance to do much on the show, but that had to be one of the most anti-climactic death scenes we’ve ever seen. Seeing the whole team salute to him was so cheesy, and you never got the sense that really anybody was too broken up about it. RIP Mike Anderson…I guess…
As for the rest of the people at Miami Metro, there’s not that much to report. Quinn is still a reprehensible jerk, but at least Batista is calling him out on it a little more.
The only other member of Metro that I’m really interested in now is LaGuerta! I know! It’s crazy that one of my most hated characters from the last few seasons has actually been given a good storyline, but she found Travis’ blood slide from the church and is starting to link it with the blood slides that Doakes took back in season two! Another big call back! Way to go, Dexter writers! I’ve really hated LaGuerta of late, but here’s hoping she can really do something with a good story.
I was wondering if they’d show Travis’ face; If they’d get Colin Hanks to do one last scene. They got pretty darn close, but I guess they were able to get away with just a lookalike.
- It’s kind of funny that James Remar is noticeably older as Dexter and Debra’s dad, even though it’s supposed to be a younger him in a flashback.
Although I am not a regular proponent of serial television shows, the eclectic, in-depth storyline and character development in Dexter are far beyond what I expected from Showtime or any network other than HBO. Dexter is a unique insight into the mind of a serial killer protected by his occupation as well as the lessons derived from his father's teachings.
By having a resounding premise of catching a notorious serial killer while trying to conceal his own identity, Dexter enters each week with a new sociological dilemma as well as a new criminal to dispatch. What is best about Dexter is his own personal facade of trying to be normal.
While other characters in the show are obviously dysfunctional, the audience are privileged to see the flaws of Dexter while people within his own world cannot. Darkly humorous, well-paced, and morbidly addictive Dexter is the best show of 2006, without a doubt.
