Before that, I thought that the story of Levi Reed would be the main one in the season, and he himself would be the final victim, but apparently we will say goodbye to him in the next episode already. And the kidnapping and murder of the judge's son are not connected with his case.
But I really don't want Tanya, Dexter's boss, to be the main villain. It's going to be kind of corny... However, her love of betting, revealed in this series, is alarming, a frequent motive for crimes.

And it pleases me how Dexter gradually, step by step, comes to his ideal process. So the horse tranquilizer appeared.

@porco: for some reason, I have suspicions that he is the son or relative of that Levi Reed, otherwise there is no need to lead the storyline of this kid. He's too good.
Still, some difficulties should appear.

Just in the last episode, I thought when Dexter's grandfather ran off the table: well, it's time to think of a tranquilizer!". And in this episode, he's one step closer to the perfect murder, really!
At first, it seemed that the actress for the role of Deb was a complete miskast. The more I look at it, the more it seems similar. Although it wasn't easy to choose an actress for this role, Jennifer Carpenter probably has a very non-trivial appearance, there are its own highlights.
In this episode, I was very confused by the court. How everyone communicates with each other, how the process itself goes. And that just like that, a lawyer brings in a witness who was not documented anywhere in the case, talks about an alibi. And the judge just: "Oh, well, OK, since the police have fucked up, then we let them go."

@LoveToBones: That's the problem, actually, that the witness' testimony is not recorded anywhere. It turned out that the detective, without legitimate grounds, excluded information important to the case that contradicts the charges, in fact, the case was falsified.
He could have accepted the testimony and ordered an expert examination that would have allowed these statements to be withdrawn, but, alas, he did not do so.

It seems to me that Debra's boyfriend will turn out to be some kind of scoundrel, whom Dexter will then multiply by zero. However, this is too predictable a move. Let's take a look...

The Miami evening scene at the end near the sea immerses Dexter in episode 4 of season 12 with the help of music and the moon. It's as if you can hear it in the depths of your soul"I wonder if Rita is looking at this same moon at this same moment. I like that - connected by light."

The series forced me (I didn't resist XD) to start reviewing the orginal once again.

I think it would be better if, instead of a synthetic retconning prequel, they would break into the multiverse and shoot several episodes on the topic of "what if".
A universe where Harry didn't adopt Dexter.
The universe where Harry adopted both brothers.
The universe where Dexter confesses to Deb at the end of the second season that he is a maniac. Or surrenders to the authorities right away. Or both.

And it would be much more interesting and effective than the way this series was shot. Since you're milking a cow to the fullest, sucking the adventure out of your finger...

Maybe I have high expectations. But even the screen saver is strangely cut and doesn't get to the beat of the melody. The plots are fine, but the directing obviously let me down.

@Da6kaz: It is almost never impossible to repeat the original, but you can capture the spirit and atmosphere. I've watched the original Dexter since its release, of course in the legendary voiceover, one of my favorite series. So for me, the prequel is very good, even after all this time, (it's scary to think how much) the atmosphere and characters still respond, and it brings back memories of watching the original. The sequel was bad, but Michael was happy.

@Sich666: The legendary voice acting is the original voice actors, right?

The sequel started out very cool, the first couple of episodes just made me believe in myself, but unfortunately very stupid pianos in the bushes made the end of the season even worse than the end of the original.

@Xenobait: The original voices of the actors, in general, can hardly be called voiceover, although of course the movie is overdubbed. I mean, it's the Russian voiceover from novafilm, it's Dexter's legendary voiceover. As for the sequel, it was completely different, it's anything but Dexter, there's no atmosphere, and the script is bad. They were very close to the original, they came up with high quality.

I didn't really understand how (and why?) they were going to/are making a Dexter prequel.
But looking at it like that, "on trial," yeah, so he's dying... my whole life is before my eyes..
Well, let's go. It's better than the "last season", which is considered a separate series.
Review Dexter again by scholey.

I didn't recognize Buffy at first, I found out something about Buffy from the comments, well, yes, now that I find out, it really looks like it)) although I just watched Buffy in another round last year. I just didn't expect her to be here.

(not) by the way, another Charmed circle mentioned Buffy in some episode.
And then, well, not Buffy, but just the same actress, well, anyway, it turned out that first I reviewed Buffy, then there was a mention in Charmed, and now the same actress is here.

So that's where the idea of the tranquilizer came from. Wait, how did he "turn off" people before him?

Is someone here saying something about a book, or is there a book? or a TV series based on a book? Or?

And well, the name "offset". yes.
Cutting was written "P - Proyob". well, logically yes.

I just noticed that "FuckUp" (without a hyphen) and "armhole" are the same length.

Yeah, if Harry had DRUNKENLY tried to shoot Reed on the day he lost to him in court, then he would definitely have become the first suspect. Dex is great. And yes, I still don't understand how they order drinks in bars. Like, I need a double Scotch. Is there only one kind of tape? Scotch tape varies, and the price may even vary hundreds of times. Okay, it's just a bar, but at least in the tens. It's just that sometimes you watch American movies, they just call the brand there, but it's not clear here.

In one of the final episodes of season 2 of the original series, when Dexter decided that everything was gone, he asks Deb if she has any weed, otherwise he has never tried it, she is very surprised and asks if he is okay. And when Doakes, in the middle of the same season, tells Deb that Dexter is a drug addict, she tells him that he hasn't even smoked a cigarette in his life.
Apparently, revising the original in parallel was not the best idea, the impression of the new series is spoiled by inconsistencies.

@raziel2011: This may not be a critical problem, but such small things can also slightly spoil the impression. It remains to be attributed to the fact that the series is not a perfect representation of what happened, but a wounded Dexter's recollection of events many years later.
But to be fair, there were inconsistencies in the original series, for example, as Masuka said in season 7 that only Doakes took blood samples on the glasses, and they use cotton swabs in the laboratory... although in season 4, Dexter used such glass when investigating the death of a woman in the bathroom.

Пожалуй, для меня самая главная интрига это что станет с героиней Сары Мишель Геллар, ведь дальше её нет и вроде о ней даже не было воспоминаний (но я не очень хорошо помню оригинал).
Молодая Деб уже не так раздражает, как в начале, тоже интересно как она придёт к тому, чтобы стать копом (возможно этого парня убьют и из-за этого она захочет встать на сторону справедливости и ловить таких убийц) (может тоже в оригинале было, не помню)

@Djigman: Ну кстати да, такое можно вписать в сюжет. Хотя мне кажется, её просто какие-нибудь бандиты убьют, Декстер к ней сильно проникнется и это ещё больше его разозлит по отношению к плохим людям.
Хотя для такого сериала конечно слабовато, скорее всего будет что-то гораздо интереснее.

The trial in this series is a circus on darts. Does anyone seriously believe that a lawyer will be allowed to roll out an alibi from the left witness at the last moment? The judge is like this: "Well, okay, since the police have screwed up everything again, then go for a walk, Vasya!It's like they're all in a comedy drama instead of a crime thriller.
