The finale was a mixed bag. I liked that they brought the ice truck killer in, but was disappointed his only appearance was at the beginning. felt like he’d be popping up a few times through the episode as dexter wrestled with the situation.

i’m so done with the trope of “hacking” a password by finding numbers of special significance to the target, especially when the target is a billionaire clearly with security on his mind.

the scene with Prater on the table was top notch. Dinklage is legit.

claudette's season-liong arc led to almost nothing in the finale. No confrontation with dexter or harrison or prater or anything. just a a dance sequence, which was pretty anticlimactic imo.

the resolution was a bit too easy, especially with all the cops around. Dexter did his thing with Prater and exited without any trouble except for the dumb password thing.

But in the end it was fine and teased next season. Looking forward to it.

That character was so weird and pointless. They made her out to be some sort of autistic savant but she never even considered Dexter a suspect despite mountains of evidence and another cop screaming at her about it.

Then the semi-romance with her partner that went nowhere.

And the dance scene was just...why? So weird.

Agree on all fronts 👍

I wonder if they will continue with the cameos of the old, dead characters ? Probably not, it's probably a first season thing if I had to guess.
Though, I am looking forward to the (maybe) appearances of the newly dead character haha
