Maybe going into all the details was to much for her. After all she did puke her guts out and have a mini nervous breakdown. I am sure she will get more info later in the show. It's only the second episode though and they have covered his life for the past six seasons so more should be on the way!

She is shocked and needs time to process all this. Isn´t in normal that the necessary question come to mind step by step? <br /><br />Btw, I think it´s strange and don´t like it at all how they (not) handeled the fact that Dexter has a son. I mean, he gets raised by the nanny most of the time, which is pretty odd, but know Jamie is practically the parent/guardian and Deb and Dex don´t care and Jamie doesn´t seemed to be surprised. <br /><br />The start of the season was quite good and I can only hope that they won´t ruin it like season 5.

It felt like they really couldn't be bothered with it, which takes the piss a bit after 6 season of build-up. She should be asking about every single person who ever has died around them. She might well do so in future episodes, but it should have been done way before she decided to try and change him.MischievousNinjanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-43745959652174906822012-10-08T19:57:40.714-04:002012-10-08T19:57:40.714-04:00I know that Dexter is make believe, but I find mys...I know that Dexter is make believe, but I find myself too often asking "Who is watching the baby?" When Jamie was at Greene's house last season and Dex was out killing, who was watching Harrison? I wish Dex would send him to grandmas's house, which is what should happen here. Deb should insist on it. Send Harrison away for a few weeks while Dex sorts his shit out. If Jamie is a live in sitter, send her along too. Kill a couple of birds with one stone. As the mom of four boys, I just can't take myself outside of the worry over Harrison to settle into a lot of this story. Having said that, BRILLIANT acting by both Hall and Carpenter. What they showed us with their actions was priceless. Breaking Bad and Homeland may end up eating this at next year's Emmys.

Oh, my, the level of emotions Jennifer's performance sent me through, from the retching to the punch, I was so involved, teary, laughing and gasping through the whole thing. That is how to write 'Dexter'! Loved the bits of levity sprinkled into a very serious situation and also the unexpected deaths. It even felt like Matsuka was back on his game. <br /><br />The bad, the child care situation and how it's being handled, maybe Jamie should be explained as being the live-in nanny. What was with Dexter and Green's 5 o'clock shadows/beards? Still don't like what they're doing with Quinn, he's so one-note, also the actor needs to eat a little more, he looks scarily gaunt and it's distracting. Anyway, the writing seems like it's back on track, I'm impressed so far. Isn't there supposed be an 8th and last season? I think so.Maninoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-76986330054815657152012-10-08T09:46:15.020-04:002012-10-08T09:46:15.020-04:00Totally agreeing with you all.

(In a parallel Universe, quick ! we have to create a show featuring her and Micheal Emerson and a few great TV actors; that'd be spectacular)<br /><br />Quoting you Billie : " And I love that I don't know". Yes indeed, I used to watch a few shows after reading spoilers on the web, not a good thing. Now, I'm all excited about the possibilities this show will end...Oh boy. Oh my. Ten more eps and it's over.<br /><br />Great, great episode. Dexter at its very best. If they keep this level for the rest of the season, indeed, it will be an epic one.<br /><br />Oh ! Next week : blast from the past. (no spoilers, but I'll be happy to see this face again) (oh ya) (aw crap, still the Americanized accent)celticmarchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06018881585193380762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-25253869051286943792012-10-08T09:28:58.275-04:002012-10-08T09:28:58.275-04:00Really good episode.

I'll probably miss stuff that way. But if I miss something important, I'm sure someone will bring it up in a comment. :)Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-76399783784868007552012-10-08T00:13:26.739-04:002012-10-08T00:13:26.739-04:00Wow quick post Billie!

I know they visited him later but how can he go on living with deb while Harrison lives at his apartment with Jamie. Was kidnapping Greene just part of his plan to manipulate Deb to start trusting him again? Lots of people seem hot on his trail so I am excited to see what happens!
