Wow, I did not expect that this would be this much of a trainwreck. A show notorious for its terrible ending doubles down with an even worse second ending. Let's start with the dead person Dexter's talking to this time around, Debra. We see a much different Debra, a Debra who apparently hates Dexter even going as far as calling him a monster and saying it's his fault she died. Directly contradicting the character in the main show. Then, we have Angela. A small town cop who couldn't solve missing person cases for over ten years solves the Bay Harbour Butcher case. She does so with a simple Google search. The search was "ketamine miami homicide" which somehow turned up BHB. Dexter had never used ketamine before so it's both a contrivance and a retconning, great job. The main show spent multiple seasons showing us that Dexter is not just some psychopath but is a human capable of love and more than just a cover life. Well, here he is a much different person. He's incredibly sloppy. A man who got away with hundreds of murders is worse at covering up than some small-town serial killer (Kurt Coldwell.) And, for some reason kills Logan (a cop) to escape his cell. Angela had only one piece of circumstantial evidence against him. Any decent lawyer would've gotten him out of that. Not to mention he could've just knocked him out. It ends with my beloved Dexter being gunned down like some animal by his own son. Absolutely terrible.
