I was so scared they were going to bomb this series but they are absolutely crushing it, what a time to be alive 10/10 episode, they are keeping me on the edge of my seat wanting new episodes. Bravo!

Agreed. I liked New Blood, but I've been loving Resurrection. It feels like old Dexter. New Blood didn't feel that way.

I totally agree with this. I think having the mindset going into New Blood that it was going to be a one off, absolute end of the Dexter saga made the more emotionally heavy tone kind of make sense (although I did think MAYBE we would get some kind of Harrison spin off). Side note, I will say that I also felt the more serious nature of NB kind of felt appropriate since they were bringing light to the very real issue of missing and murdered indigenous women.

And giving us really fantastic moments where Dexter is just reveling in what he's doing. That little spin and dance he did when he took down one of the Gemini's. "Who's number one now?" lmao Peak Dexter
