I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you are speaking here about one season (season 6) and were trying to say Colin Hanks and Edward James Olmos.

Dexter went from an emotionless sociopath with a lust for highly precise killing to an emotional little bitch in S5.

Been a while since I've seen it, but is that when Harrison was introduced? If so, I can buy that explanation.

1-4 was the best seasons, but the last few aren't as bad as everyone makes them out to be. I'd watch the whole thing.

Pretend like the season 4 finale is the series finale. You will thank me later

The religious season was season 6. I think he just got confused and meant to say Olmos.

Season 4 is the best season of Dexter.

While quality dips after 4 it is still worth finishing.

Both are hot, but I prefer Julie Benz. Loved he character, except I just don't see how a woman like that put up with all that bullshite.

It was EJ Olmos, thanks

Not sure why I thought it was Lithgow. I didn't sleep last night either. Still no excuse. I just misremembered.

I thought season 6 started off promising but just lost interest. Just my opinion. Perhaps a rewatch would be helpful.

If y'all like it then I really think he should just watch the whole series. I really didn't mind season 5. It wasn't great and of course I would have preferred another route but season 4 happened and was the best outside of one (trying not to spoil)

The final season ended all over the place because of some sort of dispute with maybe the writers?? I don't remember but something changed. The original writers or creator didn't even like it I believe?

No it's not. She's not even at her hottest in any part of Dexter.

Just watch Chuck and google more pictures of her.

She is just so sexy in Chuck. Pictures don't really bring out her sex appeal.

Sadly, she couldn't even keep Chuck going for me. Gave up on it pretty quick.

Remember in the first episode, where Dexter talks about how he has absolutely no feelings or emotions yet has a large circle of friends and co-workers.

The show is his journey to the opposite of that.

Just watch the whole series, damnit. The way it ends is perfect if you keep that first bit in mind. Everybody wants to be a critic, but they all get it dead wrong. The worst thing about the show is the season to season continuity with some of the characters and their backstories, but that ultimately doesn't affect the development of Dexter character.

She had the potential to be absolutely perfect. There really was nothing you could change about her at times

I still say stop after the first episode of season five.

The season five premiere would make a good makeshift finale, I think.

Stop after 6. While 4 is peak, 5 and 6 are ok.
