Dexter season 3 finale coming up!!

[arrow61095]

I have just been starting to get back into this season again the past couple episodes and I am looking forward to the season finale (It is only a matter of time for Miguel's bro).

Personally though, Season 3 just hasn't compared to 1 & 2 (still good, but not great.) I think it is because I hate the pregnancy/marriage subplot, and the antagonists just don't compare.

(Season 1: Ice Truck Killer vs Season 2: Doakes, Lundy, FBI, and Lila vs Season 3: The District Attorney and his family)
Sorry, but The District Attorney and his family just doesn't compare. It hasn't jumped the Shark yet, and I will keep watching.......just not as excited about Season 3 as I was about the end of Seasons 1 & 2.

I remember buying both season 1 and 2 on dvd...and upon watching a couple of episodes from season 1, told my wife about it. She wasnt 'feeling it', that is until she watched it. She is majorly hooked now. I love that show!

I actually think the show keeps getting better and better. Miguel is a different kind of antagonist, and I really like how the show twisted down a different path instead of rehashing things from the past.

Especially last night with the trunk. I never, ever, saw that coming. It was hilarious.

Jimmy Smits has really helped this season

end of season 2? Excited about what...they completely rapped up the story after season 2...he got off scott free...season 3 had to build up a story again, so they couldn't just pick up like they did after 1...and its been pretty damn good

I meant as excited as I was right before the last episode of the season. Season 3 has gotten better since Dexter and Miguel turned on each other and the black bag incident, but I didn't care much for before that when they were "friends" and the show was focussing a lot on Dexter and Rita and the coming baby.


While I am glad that they did not do a re-hashing of previous seasons, I am afraid that the writers may be reaching the end of what they can do with the character (I hope that this isn't true, because I do still like the show).
I also really don't like the pregnancy/marriage sub-plot, since it makes me afraid that the future is:
Season 4: PAPA Dexter
Season 5: The Return of Rudy.

My point is, when compared to a psychopatchic killer (the Ice Truck Killer), an Ex-special forces cop, and the FBI ----------- a glorified lawyer (District Attorney) just doesn't measure up no matter how good the acting is.

This season has been very good. GF watched the first season but didnt like the 2nd. She is hooked on this season.
