Well the problem I had was the fact there was only one officer on the roof looking out for Travis, you'd expect at least two? Which explains how he got out unseen as well ;) (service lift?).

yup, when it cut to that seen i was like WTF one guy, seriously. :laugh:

The way Dexter was able to get Harrison and Travis off the roof was simple: TV Magic. It's the same reason why we very rarely see characters eating out of necessity, but only at dinner scenes, or why on 24 no one ever has to eat or go to the bathroom for a whole 24hrs, and Jack Bauer can move across the whole damn city and stop terrorist activities so quickly. It will never make sense lol.

Was a fan of the season right up until the deb has feelings for her non-blood related brother. Just creeped me out too much, I am sure it is all very possible but I just dont think the writers had to take this path. Also not a huge fan of deb being a witness now, it leaves Dexter very few options. Oh well, even with these problems I have with the show its still one of the last entertaining shows I have left.

In the end, if Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter can't stand each other while on set, maybe it's time for someone to leave, and it's not going to be the star of the show.

Bingo. Just a theory of mine, but this could be the way to end their "great friendship" after getting married and divorced. :laugh:

And I think the whole theme of this Season was Dexter was being careless and sloppy. He messed up multiple times, very unlike him, but you can say it was all because of Harrison ultimately. I think it is a metaphor that parents do not always do the right things even though they have the best intentions.

I agree with you, but 24 is just on another completely different planet of inconceivability :D

I'm seeing a lot of people write Deb off the show because of Carpenter's relationship with Hall, but I wouldn't be so sure about that. In a recent interview with Parade, she stated, "It's sacred for an actor to keep their personal life personal. I would like to reassure all Dexter fans that the show is and always has been paramount. We?ve always done a nice job of protecting it and each other. We play important roles in each other?s lives and always will. Our friendship is true and strong and always will be as far as I?m concerned."

I thought that was more rumor and they got over their differences.

I actually read the interview, and also Howard Stern has been talking about Hall a lot lately as Hall was a guest on a show called Geektime that Howard has on his SiriusXM channels that is about all things geeky and Howard was reading lines from this interview (and granted, more or less making fun of them). But I am just going on the hunch that it is damn hard to maintain a professional relationship with someone you were married to. And I also feel that not for nothing Actors are a pretty eccentric breed at the end of the day that are real good and saying the politically correct thing about their costars. As I said it is just a theory and I could be way off, but just looking at the whole situation from the outside, not knowing anyone involved other than their public persona, I just feel that is an awkward situation for anyone, actor, plumber, teacher, garbage man. So really just going off of that.

Regardless of the personal drama (or no drama depending on who you listen to), I'm really interested to see how this all plays out next season. I'm hoping they bring Dexter back to how he used to be though, with more killings of criminals than waiting most of the season for 1 big kill. It's just not quite as satisfying. The other kills are like the appetizers because you know what's coming, but still can't wait. This time, it was just pretty random all around.

ZOMG this show creeps me out.

BUT its getting amazing! Debra will find out, and they will do the nasty.

I don't find it creepy, just a bit ludicrous so far but that can change depending on how they explain it.

Basically we're to believe that Deb (from everything thats suggested in the show) never had any physical attraction to her brother before, but since her psychologist's theory "makes so much sense", she now feels like she needs to have sex with him. She doesn't spend more than a day thinking over whether her psychologist is right. She had a dream about it the following night, so she must be right.

Of course, Deb seems like a very insecure person who, because she's always in self-doubt, is very impressionable. It would be more believable that she was too easily led on by what her therapist was saying than she actually was secretly in love with him. And her therapist would, of course, be horrible at her job for not realizing that possibility.

We'll see, I guess.

just started Season 6 E1 :)

No spoilers please

The season finale was almost 2 weeks ago, it's too late to say no spoilers lol. If you don't want spoilers, reading this thread is a bad idea.

In the end, if Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter can't stand each other while on set, maybe it's time for someone to leave, and it's not going to be the star of the show.

How do we know they don't get along?

As for Dexter, I find Deb extremely attractive especially when she cusses all the time. They need to have her be slutty again like the first few seasons, ha.

    • FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 by Razvan Serea FotoSketcher Studio is a free creative tool that instantly turns your photos into artwork. With just a few clicks, you can apply styles like pencil sketches, watercolor, oil painting, ink drawings, cartoons, and abstract effects. Powerful yet simple sliders let you adjust every detail to match your vision, from subtle enhancements to bold artistic transformations. You can also improve your images with tools for contrast, sharpness, color, and brightness, plus add frames and text. It supports JPEG, PNG (including transparency), BMP, and WebP formats for both opening and exporting. Available for Windows (64-bit) and macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), FotoSketcher also offers batch processing, manual retouching, and custom effects for advanced users. Completely free, including commercial use, with no ads or spyware. FotoSketcher Studio 4.30 changelog: New LUTs effect In the Photo Lab category you will find a new LUTs (Lookup Tables) effect for custom colour grading. It comes with 18 presets built right into the application (Cinematic, Kodachrome, Golden hour, Portrait and more), each with a live preview so you can see the look before applying it. Right-click the preview to compare with your original image. And if you have your own .cube files, you can load those from disk too. New "Stylize" category Added a brand-new Stylize category with four new effects. Three of them (Mosaic, Circles and Triangles) are built on the same space-filling idea, turning your photo into tiled mosaics, clusters of circles, or a low-poly triangle look. The fourth, Cartoon, is a bit different: it gives a clean graphic style with defined lines and solid colours. A little tip - set the colour intensity to 0 and Cartoon draws a pure outline drawing with no fill. Combined with the "Do not erase background" option, you can run it on top of any other effect to add crisp contours in two quick steps. Auto-Enhance and Full Reset Two small but handy additions. Auto-Enhance (just press E) tries to optimise your source photo - exposure, white balance, local contrast - for a 'dehazed', natural-looking starting point. And Full Reset clears everything back to a clean slate in one step (working image, history, LUT, script, brushes and sliders) without having to close and reopen the program. Press Ctrl+Shift+N, or right-click the exit button. Scripts The script engine has been updated to support all the new effects, with a few new commands and improved help. If you would like some inspiration, the recent scripting tutorial on this blog walks through several ready-made example scripts. The usual improvements The interface now uses new colour accents for better readability, the history gallery has had a few tweaks, and you can now open .webp images directly. On top of that, this release includes some performance improvements and a good number of bug fixes.
