Doesn't mean I don't know what channel I'm watching or what show. <br /><br />I'm either comfortable or skeptical when it comes to how these scenes are done. It's great when they're done right, hard to take when they're not. This was in between for me.<br /><br />A lot of men don't care about the context of a sex scene as long as there is one. Go figure.<br /><br />Also I don't think that it's out of character for Dexter to fall for Hannah so hard. He didn't know Lila or Lumen for that long either, and he had sex with them pretty quickly. <br /><br />Maninoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-11235257845895046772012-11-16T12:12:15.130-05:002012-11-16T12:12:15.130-05:00I liked this a lot.

She is a black widow and simply awful and seeing Dexter with her in that way makes me angry. Since when does sex clouds Dexter´s mind? And I hate that he does not see that she uses and plays with him. <br /><br />P.S. Why did my previous comment vanish? :(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-41633702124376185772012-11-13T16:26:32.693-05:002012-11-13T16:26:32.693-05:00It could have been a great season, but then two th...It could have been a great season, but then two things happened: 1) Dex-Hannah lovestory and 2) Quinn-Nadia lovestory. <br /><br />First to Quinn and Nadia. I simply don´t buy it. He throws away his career, risks his friendship to Batista and suddenly does not care for Anderson´s murderer anymore? After all the fuzz he made? He knows her how long? Furthermore it is simply not interesting. I would have never expected me to say this but I would rather have more Laguerta. She has an interesting story but we see nothing of it. <br /><br />Then Dexter and Hannah. Oh my....I don´t know what to say. I don´t buy that Dex is so invested and suddenly thinks he loves her. He too risks everything for a woman he knows for two minutes. His behavior is so un-Dexter it hurts. He always cared for himself and his family and now Hannah seems to be his priority (He ignores his initial judgement again). More or less he aknowledged that he never loved Rita. He changed his mind very quickly, didn´t he. <br /><br />I thought the big bad would be Isaak and I´m disappointed that he´s not. It seems that the big bad of Dexter this season is Dexter himself. He is stupid, sloppy and just unlikable (never thought I´d say that either). I just hope that if he has to chose he chooses Deb and not Hannah. Dex and these unlikable women (Lila, Hannah) are terrible and don´t do the show any good if they overshadow the crime element. <br /><br />I´m rooting for Deb and Batista. I hope they bring Quinn and Dex back on track and if not bust them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-5478163622953342392012-11-13T15:46:29.791-05:002012-11-13T15:46:29.791-05:00I get why some were uncomfortable with the Dexter/...I get why some were uncomfortable with the Dexter/Hannah table scene. It was a lot more explicit than what they usually do on this show, and oddly violent, considering that he wasn't actually hurting her. Fernando, I get what you mean, but calling people 'hypocrites' because they admitted to being uncomfortable doesn't sit well with me. If you're uncomfortable, you're uncomfortable. It's not a reaction you can temper with logic, is it?Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-27925379155341253412012-11-13T15:10:59.257-05:002012-11-13T15:10:59.257-05:00What's with people feeling weird about the sex...What's with people feeling weird about the sex scenes? Are you aware of what show you're watching?<br /><br />So you're OK with all the murdering, blood and gore in the rest of the show but you have to look away on sex scenes? Bunch of hypocrites.<br /><br />I've been a fan of this site for year and this is the first time I have to comment on this kind of ridiculous comments on the content of a show. For that, Billie, I apologize to you.<br /><br />As for the episode, I'll agree with Celticmarc, this was less intense but still good.<br /><br />I do need them to resolve the Quinn story and get him out of the show, he's just annoying. And I guess that overlap between his story and Angel's hints us how Angel's restaurant project will end. From the beginning I thought that was a weird move for Angel's story.<br /><br />And I can't wait to have them come back on the weird Dex-Deb story. There's too much potential on that to ignore it for the rest of the season/series.<br /><br />Great review as usual, Billie. :)Fernandonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-88015675901253093412012-11-12T20:23:40.066-05:002012-11-12T20:23:40.066-05:00I can live with the Dexter sex scenes.

That first sex scene was so 'right out in the open' I kind of had to look away. <br /><br />Also when Hannah was telling her story for Sal I was skeptical of its veracity because for the most part she puts on a show, who knows when she's actually telling the truth or lying? She's so good at it, almost like Dex, except I don't know what her motives are so I take anything she says with a grain of salt. Still riveting, basically because I have no idea where they're going with it. <br /><br />Also think Quinn giving Batista that money was an interesting and logical thing for him to do. It solved a problem for him and probably made him feel less guilty for lying to someone who believes in him. He's still two-faced though. I agree with your grade.Maninoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-80667633432967342052012-11-12T14:23:24.626-05:002012-11-12T14:23:24.626-05:00Watching Dexter or Grey's Anatomy of soft porn...Watching Dexter or Grey's Anatomy of soft porn is the same, it's boringAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-23121001145389230422012-11-12T03:37:17.574-05:002012-11-12T03:37:17.574-05:00Santiago Cabrera needs to stop dying on my shows. ...Santiago Cabrera needs to stop dying on my shows. morgan indiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07633124041567701073noreply@blogger.com
