The second season of Dexter first aired on September 30th, 2007, almost one year after the start of the first season. It was followed by a sequel called Dexter: New Blood, which was released in late 2021. They have also released ten episodes of a new spin-off series called Dexter: Original Sin, and its season finale was released on February 14th. Dexter was first developed by James Manos Jr., with the main writers being Clyde Phillips, Scott Buck and multiple others.
The show Dexter is about a blood splatter analyst who works for the Miami Police Department. He works for them during the day, but at night, he kills criminals who either haven’t been caught, or who haven’t been punished enough by the law. We later find out that horrible events from his childhood have helped to shape the adult that Dexter eventually becomes.
Dexter, Season 2 is full of mystery, action, and drama. The main story is captivating, which makes you want to binge-watch the whole season, and the action is perfect, especially when Dexter’s victims retaliate against him.
Michael C. Hall is a great actor, but his performance as Dexter makes him look like an even better actor. This season will interest everyone, as it is one of the best ones in the entire history of the show.
Season 2 begins with Dexter struggling to kill anyone else, after murdering his older brother, the Ice Truck Killer. Later on, he meets Lila in a Narcotics Anonymous meeting, after Rita, Dexter’s wife, discovers that he planted drugs in Paul’s hotel room. Soon afterwards, all of Dexter’s victims are found by a few treasure hunters and the hunt for the Bay Harbor Butcher begins.
Season 2 is so great, because so many events occur in that one season, especially after all of Dexter’s victims are discovered. This development in the story is a good thing, because it adds more to the plot to the series, so it doesn’t stay repetitive. But the most interesting thing about the season is the conflict that occurs between Dexter and Officer Doakes.
One of the most intriguing factors of Dexter is the serial killer that is featured during every season. The best serial killers are the Ice Truck Killer, Trinity, and the Doomsday Killer. These are the best antagonists in the series, because unlike the other villains, the ways they kill are usually surprising.
The actors and music in this series are also terrific. The actors are perfect in every scene, as their performances are some of the best out there. The songs are also great, as they match every scene they appear in. For example, when Dexter is going to kill a new serial killer, a song starts playing that completely complements the scene.
If you enjoy Dexter, I suggest you go and watch Dexter: New Blood and Dexter: Original Sin, as they both tell us more about Dexter’s past and future. These shows are killer!
