| The thing that really surprised me was that the subplots with Angel and Matsuka went nowhere. In Breaking Bad, every sub plot meant something and contributed to the work as a whole. (Except for Marie's shoplifting.) The stuff in Dexter with those two (and Quinn) had nothing to do with Dexter, had nothing to do with any larger plots that made up the basis of a season and could be almost completely removed from each episode with no loss to the greater story they were trying to tell about Dexter himself.
They had a show named after a character. The other characters exist because they have something to do with the eponymous character. But not here. It was amazingly incompetent. And everything I remember reading from the writers and show runners has them coming off like they think they did an amazing job. ICJ |

Here I chronicle the downfall of Dexter by 03/09/2014, 12:56am PST  I didn't stick with it but it seems like the show's mortal sin was by 03/09/2014, 6:21am PDT Didnt the books have Dexter's dark passenger be an actual evil god of antiquity? NT by 03/09/2014, 12:31pm PDT I have heard that is the case. They would need to diverge before that. by 03/09/2014, 2:20pm PDT Try reading a couple pages from the Sookie Stackhouse books NT by 03/09/2014, 3:48pm PDT What is the world coming to when a show about a metaserial killer goes downhill?
