I didn't like season 5, never got into the character of Lumen. 6 was pretty good though, and I enjoyed 7 cause I had some weird crush on Hannah

She was so mysterious and unstable and stuff. Got drawn to that for some reason, hahaI don't blame you. Hannah is definitely pretty damn sexy.
...6 was pretty good though...
Lmao"Then I Goggled your name. Yeah, that's right dick-wad..."

Having Deb shoot LaGuerta was pretty lame
The character Lumen may not have been good (I personally didn't mind her at all and thought she was a good add for this stand-alone season), but she actually served a larger purpose that I think people miss. She helped Dexter discover emotions and feelings that he had thought he didn't have...I'll go to spoiler text for the following, in case there are people who are just now catching up:
[spoil]When he breaks the plate and curls up at the end when she leaves is a powerful moment in Dexter's history, it showed that he could develop feelings and could in fact love someone (romantically) completely. He liked Rita, but I don't think he truly loved her...but he did "fall in love" (for the first time to Viewers) with Lumen[/spoil]
I shot an episode of an upcoming TV show with Lauren Velez, the woman who played LaGuerta. We talked about Dexter for a few minutes. What it boiled down to is she said she felt the first four or five season were some of the best TV she's ever seen. After that no one on the crew really had any idea what the writers were doing but they went along.
I don't recall ever seeing Jennifer Carpenter called a good actress in this before.

I'm pretty sure they started dating during the show. Not together anymore though.Yea she is not a good actress, correct me if im wrong but isnt she dating or married to Michael C Hall and thats why she got the job?
Problems with the 2nd half of the show...
1) During the first 4 Seasons, Dexter was scared to get caught. He was cautious. Safe. The tension was contagious.
After Season 4, he didn't seem worried. He killed without thought or concern. The best example was the killing of the hit man by the Ukrainian kingpin on the big boat. Dexter hung around to wash down the blood - in broad daylight. Just ridiculous.
2) After Season 4, in ONE (and only ONE) way the show became more realistic....
The other characters had their own lives and didn't seem to notice what Dexter did. This is the way it would be in real life but it detracted from the show. They needed a Doakes.
3) The incest angle was silly and an uncomfortable distraction.
4) While Jennifer Carpenter acting was first rate (really well done), Dexter's character had no range at all. Same old "Dex".
Anyway, I am 3 episodes into Season 8 and I predict:
A) Dexter will survive the finale - but by the slimmest of margins. They will want to keep the possibility of a Season 9.
B) Charlotte Rampling will be a bad guy and a serial killer.
C) Debra will die.
We'll see... (* No comments, either Yay or Nay, please. Right or wrong, I want to be surprised. *)
I can't wait until you see what happens.
