Yeah one major problem I have with Dexter is their fly by the seat of their pants writing. I remember reading right after the finale aired they didn't know how they where going to go ahead, like what direction the show would take. It's like you just killed the main characters wife and you didn't bother to even plan ahead at the possible consequences here? Thats why i have no faith in the team behind this show. Maybe I'm spoiled with genius' like Shawn Ryan or Kurt Sutter who plan seasons ahead what they are going to do. But IMO killing a major character without any regards to the future seasons is just stupid.

I have a strong feeling that we'll get an incredible season 5 either way.

Feel the same way. Read the article and was pissed when I read that. I hope it doesn't look bad or that I can spot it now that I know he's wearing a wig.

Really glad to hear he is doing well though!

Well it's the last season they have contracts for so who knows. It may end in him getting caught. They said this season starts up right after the end of season 4.

If the shows ends any other way than in the chair, I'll be extremely let down.

+1, or they sign up for another season

question: I can’t go another week without getting some dexter season 5 scoopage! —maria
ausiello: your timing is impeccable, maria. As luck would have it, i can’t go another week without giving you some dexter season 5 scoopage. You’re never going to believe who ends up caring for dexter’s three motherless children. Go ahead, hazard a guess.

[Show spoiler]dex’s in-laws, you say? Wrong! It’s deb! New showrunner chip johannessen tells me that in the wake of rita’s brutal slaying, dex turns to his sister (played by michael c. Hall’s real-life bride, jennifer carpenter) to help care for the kids. And if that’s not problematic enough, all five of them will move into dex’s old (and rather teensy) apartment! “it’s partially funny and partially not,” says johannessen. “deb is not exactly the most maternal person. Nobody quite knows what they’re doing, so there’s a certain kind of struggle to cope.” (for more scoop on dexter‘s fifth season — bowing in september — pick up the new issue of entertainment weekly.)

question: Give me some solid dexter season 5 scoop, spoiler boy. —scott
ausiello: you know that trinity killed rita. I know that trinity killed

[Show spoiler]rita. And dexter knows that trinity killed rita. The police and the fbi, however, don’t know that trinity killed rita. And who’s almost always id’d as the prime suspect in a murder case? That’s right, the spouse. Long story short: Dexter’s nightmare has only just begun.

Per Wikipedia:
As of 2008, electrocution is an optional form of execution in the U.S. states of Alabama, Florida, South Carolina and Virginia, though they allow the prisoner to choose lethal injection as an alternative method. In the states of Kentucky and Tennessee, the electric chair has been retired except for those whose capital crimes were committed prior to legislated dates in 1998 (Kentucky March 31, 1998, Tennessee December 31, 1998) and who choose electrocution. In both states, inmates who do not choose electrocution or inmates who committed their crimes after the designated date are killed by lethal injection. The electric chair is an alternate form of execution approved for potential use in Illinois and Oklahoma if other forms of execution are found unconstitutional in the state at the time of execution.

FLORIDA IS AWESOME! And they say dreams don't come true.

If Dexter were to be killed, it should be by Deb's hands. Not the State.

[WyldeMan45]

This morning Showtime/Paramount have officially announced the title for both formats, putting it on the schedule for August 17th. The running time is 632 minutes for 12 episodes that include season-long guest star John Lithgow (Footloose, 3rd Rock From The Sun). Video is in widescreen, with high-def 1080p on the Blu-ray version. Audio specs aren't provided yet, but are expected to be in line with the previous season sets (which have been English 5.1 Dolby Surround for the DVD, and English 5.1 Dolby TrueHD on the Blu-ray, and both with an option for Spanish 2.0 Dolby).

Nice cant wait to buy this one.

For the people complaining about the wig that Michael will be wearing. I believe he wore it for the last 4-6 episodes of season 4.
