Thanks for bringing up this thread. I meant to ask: How was season 3? Anyone here seen it? Is it on par with Season 1 and/or 2? I am not sure I should order it as I am concerned whether it will be just more of the same...

Just as good if not better. Jimmy Smits makes agreat new best friend for Dexter. If you liked S1 & S2 you will definitely enjoy S3

Thanks, that sounds great. I'll order it i September together with Big Bang Theory... (DeepDiscount sucked my entire DVD budget.....and then some )

Showtime has confirmed news that Julia Stiles will appear in ten episodes of "Dexter" this season. According to the channel, Stiles will "play a mysterious young woman who forms a unique relationship with Dexter article at Variety.com WARNING - ARTICLE CONTAINS MAJOR SEASON 4 SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!

If you haven't seen Season 4 yet avoid and and all articles or discussions regarding this.

With that said I can't wait to see what my favorite serial killer has in store for Jason Bourne's girlfriend

I recently came about another casting article for S5 that contained a major spoiler for S4 without any warning. I usually don't mind spoiler, but that one had me stumped.

The article mentioned that Julie Benz has been cast for S5, despite being killed by Trinity in S4.

Maybe for flashback scenes...or maybe Dexter is going to flip out a bit and see her ghost or something.

Most likely. The article also mentioned that she was killed on screen, i.e. there is no doubt about her being really most sincerely dead.

With "stumped" I meant frustrated. I wish I wouldn't know that particular fact before watching S4.

Ahh..ok.  I understand that.  I've accidentally found out stuff in advance that I would have preferred not knowing too.

I can certainly sympathize with you Mathias. It's a shame you stumbled across that article. It's one of those spoilers that is hard hide for any length of time though. Still, the writer of the article should at the very least get slapped around a bit.  

Something similar happened to me a while ago. It had to do with the series 24. I watched season 2 before season 1 without realizing

Nina, who was a bad guy in S2 was a good guy until the last episode of S1. Pretty anti-climatic knowing all along who the mole was.

I saw an article 1 or 2 days after the season finale of Dexter that had a spoiler right in the title

I can't remember exactly what it said, but it was something about Dead Dexter Actress Resurrected on Desperate Housewives...and there was a big picture of Julie Benz.  That's how I found out she died.

I'm also a bit wary of the implied rehash-factor. I mean, S4 (like S1) seems to have

as the antagonist while S5 (like S2) has Dexter in relationship with a mysterious woman.

I started watching Dexter season 1, episode 1 on Sep 4th 2010. Last night I finished with the last episode of season 4.

I'm not really sure if I'm going to miss Rita. She has become a bit clingy in the fourth season.

I guess that means you liked it. 

[DJ Doena]

Nah, totally boring...

Now I'm not sure if I should watch it on a weekly basis or wait til the fifth season is over.

[Achim]

Yeah, I can see how you finished all seasons quickly to get over with it then
