Dexter returns on Sept. 25, 2011 with season six and more crazy stuff from our favorite serial killer. Getting pretty excited to see in what new directions they take the character. Here are a couple trailers. Don't watch the first trailer unless you want spoilers for the previous seasons.

A message from Dexter (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-IXnlkgUwQ#ws)
Yay! Hope some more of you forums regulars jump on the Dexter bandwagon. This show is awesome. The best thing about the upcoming new season is that we are kind of in reboot territory...you don't really need to have watched the previous seasons to worry about what's going on.
I can't wait!! Love this crazy series!!
Joby and Al, they don't know what they are missing. This show has been a big favorite of mine since I got caught up on it a couple years back. Can't wait for the new season too.
I agree Rico. I started watching it because a co-worker of mine mentioned it, so I thought I'd give it a shot...three seasons later and I'm even more hooked than ever! :)
My younger son got me into the series. He watched it before me and even read a couple of the books and told me I had to see this series. Been hooked ever since!
Just finished season 5 & can't wait for the next one! Just found this little titbit of info

For the "Dexter" fans, episode one for season six has been "leaked" onto the internet.
(and OMG - it's awesome!)
But, if you still want to wait, season six starts Sunday, Oct. 2nd!

Thank God (Dexter Season 6 Spot) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcQT5kEb2ws#ws)
Thanks for the tip Rico.
Great episode!!!!! Cannot wait for the season to start in earnest.
[spoiler]Not sure about Colin Hanks. He was sufficiently creepy in his couple scenes but I'm afraid he just looks a bit too much like Forrest Gump to be scary enough to be effective. EJO was awesome though. I absolutely LOVED the scenes at the high school reunion. Dex on the dance floor was priceless! This is going to be a great season![/spoiler]
Yes, this was a great start to the season. My wife is upset that "Adama" is now a creepy guy, but I love it. Dexter is now such a fully realized and sympathetic character it's hard to remember that he's a serial killer.
Yep, I have a feeling this is going to be an awesome season. Can't wait for episode two!
Three episodes in now and I'm really enjoying this season. Not a lot has been revealed yet, but they seem to be putting several things into play. Still one of the best series around!
The final images from the last episode were pretty disturbing. If it weren't for the preview of the next episode that plays immediately after the episode ends I think it would have been an alot more of an effective "WTF" moment. I agree though, great season so far. I like every subplot as well...Deb's story, Matsuka and his intern, everything is interesting and gripping.
Joby - don't watch those previews! :)
You know, after last season I expected this season to be even better....AND I WAS RIGHT! What an awesome season!
Everyone still enjoying? [spoiler]Has anyone noticed or started to think that EJO just isn't real? When I saw the picture of his face on the front page of the Miami newspaper with the headline "Doomsday Killer" and his sitting in the middle of a resturaunt with no one batting an eye it made me kind of feel like Trevor is just a whack job hallucinating his relationship with his old Professor. I think EJO could have been Trevor's first kill[/spoiler]
I'm still loving this episode. Especially the
[spoiler] angel death where the police activated a trip wire and caused the victims death as angel wings unfolded. That was pretty grotesque!![/spoiler]
And in relation to the above theory
[spoiler]
I'd heard this theory suggested on the Dissecting Dexter Podcast. The host, Gareth suggested that we hadn't seen him interact with any objects or physical things on screen. Next episode, he picks up a bag of mannequin heads. I think it would have been interesting to see the killer with his own Harry ghost/conscience/imaginary friend. But I don't think they are going that way with it...[/spoiler]

Haven't listened to that...I'll have to check it out
It's a really good podcast I've recently gotten into. I think Gareth is a Treks In Sci-Fi listener. I know he listens to Waffle On and Take Him With You. He even provided a voice recently for the Halloween special Highway To Mars.
Not the most recent episode, but was anyone else...
[spoiler]totally psyched to see Cpt. Jellico FINALLY get what was coming to him? Seriosly Ronny Cox did a great job in episode three, didn't he? [/spoiler]
I think this has been the most kick butt season yet! Dexter keeps getting better and better:
[spoiler]I LOVED how the last episode went! When Brother Sam was shot, I was bummed and very intrigued when, on his death bed (literally), he asked Dexter to forgive the man who shot him. You could SEE the torment in Dexters eyes as he struggled with the choice. Then, in the end, the jerk wad made Dexters decision for him didn't he? That was FANTASTIC! Can't wait for next week...[/spoiler]

I have to agree.[spoiler] The turn around was absolutely amazing. I think the tone of the Season has just done a total u-turn. I reckon Dexter is going to turn his back on his attempts to learn to be "normal" and take a few steps backwards in his journey to becoming more human....[/spoiler]

That would be my preference! I don't think anyone was really happy with Dexter as family man that had developed over the first few seasons, [spoiler]hence the annihilation or elimination of most of his immediate family[/spoiler] and I would be very glad to see him back to his roots again. We're likely to get at least two more seasons of the show so I wouldn't be expecting him to get discovered for who he really is any time soon anyway.
Great recent episode (ep. 6), but you can put me in the camp of not minding when Dexter tried to be a normal, family man. The most interesting thing about his character and this series is his struggle between the light and the darkness. If he gives up on that he'll be lost. Even in season one he was like this. He has never reveled or enjoyed the darkness, he just deals with it. But he has always tried to make his way more to the light. Anyway, just my views and the way I see the character and the series.
Interesting, in the books he is generally a much darker character. Looks like we're gonna see just how dark Dex can get over the next few episodes!
Looks like Season six is finally really heating up. I really enjoyed the last episode, while I felt the ones prior to that were kind of meandering without a sense of direction or purpose. I've read that show runners have stated that events in the last two episodes of this season will resonate through the last two seasons of the show, and shift things towards an endgame for the series. Anyone have any predictions what that might be?
A couple spoilery observations:
[spoiler] I find it hard to believe that Dexter thinks it's a good idea to have Batista's sister so close all the time as Harrison's primary caretaker. It seems like something is going on with him that is driving him towards carelessness and a recklessness that we haven't seen in his character before. Also, it makes me very nervous having that super computer hacker/programmer guy poking around in Dexter's office near his computer. I would think Dex might feel the same way, knowing this guys skills and abilities. Finally, things seem to be too sweetness and light for Deb right now: she's making great strides in therapy, realizing some of her childhood traumas and how they affect her day to day. She's easing in to her new job, and has leverage on the big boss and Laguerta which she'll be able to use to her advantage. Things are going to fall apart for her soon, I believe. She's the writers on this show's favorite whipping-girl, and I anticipate things getting bad quickly in her life. Possibly by finding out that the most important person in her life is hiding a huge secret?[/spoiler]
One thing that has been pointed out on Dissecting Dexter throughout this Season is...
[spoiler]
....Dexter's lack of care when carrying out murders. He seems to be leaving definite clues that could later bite him him in the butt.
Episode 1 began wioth him calling for an ambulance so he could "despatch" the two ambulance killers. It appeared that he used his own phone. Wouldn't the police become suspicious when 2 ambulance men disappeared and investigate the last call. And even if it wasn't his own phone, what about the 911 recordings? He didn't disguise his voice.
When he killed his ex-high school jock "friend" from his childhood. He stole the promiscuous woman's phone to text the jock. When he disappears, wouldn't the police investigate his mobile. See the text and trace it back to her. All they have to ask her is "when did you last see your phone? And who was you with at this reunion?"
Not to mention the daylight bathroom beating and the body hidden in the grain silo. I think they are deliberately leaving an evidence trail to link Dexter to a number of the murders. A future storyline perhaps? With only two seasons to go, it's sure to happen at some point.
[/spoiler]
Also, I stated that Gareth from Dissecting Dexter was a THWY listener and appeared in the halloween Highway To Mars. I was mistaken....different Gareth **face-palm**
You know how confusing it sometimes gets with so many internet peoples....
Dexter season finale!
HOLY FRAK!!!!

I know, RIGHT?
Have to wait until next fall after that? Unbelievable.
Talk about your cliff hangers, come on now...that's just not fair.
Well, next season is certainly all set up now. And not just the cliff hanger ending...
I have to say, I really didn't see that ending coming. Definitely a big event. Let's keep it quiet or use spoiler tags until others have had a chance to see it (or at least a couple weeks go by). Pretty wild way to end the season. :)

[spoiler]I assumed that the final Season was going to be set up this way. I could definitely see it coming eventually, just not so soon. I think the Bay Harbour Butcher hand at his home will also come into play for sure.
Also, I really do think Dexter has been less than careful this season. At first, I thought it was poor writing. Now I think it is all deliberate.
The first episode opened with him calling 911 for an ambulance so he could dispose of the ambulancemen. Aren't all 911 messages recorded?
The ex-high school jock at the school reunion. He text him from that "friendly" ladies mobile. When the police trace that back and ask, where were you when you lost your mobile? And who was at the reunion?
The body in the grain silo....Deb's knows he was down there[/spoiler]
There have been countless others too that I'm struggling to recollect.
I think that next season is going to be very interesting
AWESOME SEASON FINALE!!! OMG!!!!! Cannot wait for next season!!

Actually my biggest issue with this season has been how predictable everything has seemed to me. I predicted every big reveal this season (actually in this thread if you read back ;) ) It was more difficult for me to enjoy the "surprises" this season because to me they were pretty obvious fairly early on. I can't say that for any other season of this show, I've always been sufficiently shocked and surprised by the twists and turns Dex's life has taken, so perhaps it's due to a decline in the writing?
All that being said, I am still on board for the duration, and am right there with you in that I cannt wait for the next season to start. Bring it on!!!

Really? I was actually surprised by one thing:
[spoiler]Prof. Geller was actually dead. And Travis was a nut job. But I must admit, I did see that Deb would find out somehow about Dexter. [/spoiler]
But, I am truly into this show 100%.

I think they relied too much on this for the Season. I probably wouldn't have seen it coming if I hadn't have been listening to a Dexter podcast. This theory came in within the first couple of episodes airing and, as the season went on, it became obvious that the story was going to go this way.
If you managed to watch it without seeing it coming, I'm sure it would have been a whole lot ,more enjoyable. The trouble with watching whilst listening to podcasts about it is that they can call something before you are ready to realise it. At the same time, stuff is pointed out that you miss and it can also enhance your pleasure. Pot luck I think...
