I wasn’t sure whether to consider this a pilot or just a season premiere, and I think I’m leaning more towards the latter. I thought at least that it was worth doing a full written review rather than just a short video, and I’ll continue watching even if I’m not sure it needed to be brought back. Looking back at my reviews of the show’s original run, I remembered that I, like most, was a big fan of seasons one and four, and, unlike most, I was impressed with seasons five, six, and seven. I had mixed feelings on season two, didn’t love season three, and wasn’t very fond of the eighth and, at the time, final season. The finale was far from memorable, but I wasn’t opposed to the idea of it coming back since, when it was good, it was very good. There was a lot of exposition here, with Deb stepping in for Harry as Dexter’s new imagined moral compass, complete with her own personality that was rather blunt and harsh with her brother about what he should do with his life. James Lindsay has really endeared himself to everyone in his small town, including his girlfriend Angela, who happens to be the chief of police. He was doing so well but Matt was practically asking to be killed, poking and prodding Dexter while he was trying to ignore him and just live his life. Keeping his reignited habit a secret is going to be difficult enough, and now he’ll also have to find a way to explain who he is to Harrison and who Harrison is to the people in his new life. That should be interesting, but I need another episode to see what this season will really look like.
