Dexter: Resurrection Brings Back Something I Didn't Realize I Was Missing So Hard In The New Blood Season
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Light spoilers below for the first two episodes of Dexter: Resurrection, so be warned if you haven't yet watched on Showtime or via Paramount+ subscription. The Dexter-verse is quite the odd duck of a TV franchise. The latest spinoff, Dexter: Resurrection, was directly set up in the premiere of the prequel Original Sin, following the titular character seemingly being killed off at the end of the first sequel series New Blood. Michael C. Hall's latest venture as the code-following killer even brings back characters unseen since early seasons of the flagship thriller. Perhaps most importantly, from a lore perspective, it welcomes back 'Harry Morgan.' Indeed, watching Dexter: Resurrection's first two episodes (and then some) was often at its most fun when James Remar's Harry and Hall's fatherhood-complicating character are sharing the screen together. As ashamed as I am to admit it, I didn't even realize how much I missed this element throughout watching Harrison's journey in and around Iron Lake. James Remar's Harry Was Understandably Absent From Dexter: New Blood For eight seasons, James Remar served as both the canonically accurate Harry Morgan (via flashbacks) and as the phantom-ification of Dexter's conscience, and aided in the vast majority of Dexter's actions throughout that run. In making the radical decisions to legally fake his death and to adopt another persona far away from the tanned population of Miami, he became Jim Lindsay. Unlike Miami Metro's former blood spatter mastermind, Jim Lindsay didn't have an innate need for Harry Morgan's advice. As such, James Remar didn't have a presence in New Blood, so we didn't get to see if non-real Harry would have changed from his signature blue shirt into warmer clothes for New York's snowy weather. Then, when Dexter: Original Sin dove into the Morgan family's backstory, it was Christian Slater who introduced the Harry Code to Patrick Gibson's Dex. Sure, the prolific stage actor appeared on the after show Dexter: Final Cut to share his thoughts on things, but not as Harry. Harry's Return In Dexter: Resurrection Reminded Me How Hard I Actually Missed His Excellent Pop-Ins I guess after years of rewatching the O.G. run's earlier seasons, I took for James Remar's presence for granted, and didn't acknowledge his absence in New Blood as forward-facing as I should have. Because holy shit, Dexter: Resurrection immediately profits off of bringing Harry back into the folds of Dexter's mind. Watching the various (and often hilarious) ways he pops into these new scenes served as a a fantastic reminder of the glory days. The second episode, 'Camera Shy,' features an early scene where Dexter infiltrates the hotel room where Harrison went buck on that would-be rapist's face with a toilet tank lid. When his non-professional investigation is interrupted by the actual professionals (and the cartoonish hotel manager), Dexter pulls the old 'hide in the closet' move. Which is of course both a perfect and imperfect time for Harry to dispense his two cents, as seeing Remar suddenly appear next to Hall in such a cramped setting is going to make my Top 10 moments of the season. More On Dexter: Resurrection Modern Family's Eric Stonestreet And Jessica Jones' Krysten Ritter Are Used To Huge Fandoms, But Told Me Why They Were 'Blown Away' Joining Dexter: Resurrection's Cast I don't need or want Dexter's inner monologues with Harry to skew too humorous, mind you. I'll freely admit to thinking some of those scenes can be criminally heavy-handed, and always appreciate when levity is mixed in, but I'm fine with those maintaining their emotional core as Dexter works out his issues. In fact, I think it's even more brilliant when Harry appears out of nowhere in the strangest context, and it isn't played for a joke, since it's precisely that tonal juxtaposition that I love to see in this weird-ass show. Dexter: Resurrection Also Earns My Love For Bringing David Magidoff's Teddy Back While James Remar's Harry was present during Dexter and missing from New Blood, the opposite was true for David Magidoff's Teddy Reed, who was first introduced as a wet-behind-the-ears officer for Iron Lake's police department. Every show needs a character like Teddy, and while I fully wanted him to continue serving a role in this world, I didn't actually expect to see him back in the narrative for Resurrection given the change in setting. Let me offer a sincere slow clap for showrunner Clyde Phillips & Co. for making sure to not only bring back the character that was sorely missing from New Blood, but also for bringing back my favorite new element from that one-off season. Now who do I have to talk to about pitching a new spinoff where Teddy solves crimes with the actual ghost of Harry Morgan? Surely someone will help me bring that idea to the 2025 TV schedule. Anybody? While I wait for answers, be sure to watch new episodes of Dexter: Resurrection when they hit Paramount+ on Fridays, or when they air on Showtime on Sunday nights at 8:00 p.m. ET.

I Watched Dexter: New Blood Before Resurrection, And There's A Pattern In The Spinoffs That's Giving Me Breaking Bad Vibes
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Warning! The following contains spoilers for Dexter: Resurrection. Stream episodes now with a Paramount+ subscription, and read at your own risk! Dexter Morgan's story is continuing with Dexter: Resurrection not long after it seemed New Blood was the endgame. The story picks up where the last one left off, but with everyone's favorite serial killer-killer settling up in New York City to help clean up the latest deadly mess made by his son Harrison. I'm loving the episodes we've seen so far, especially with the continuation giving me major Breaking Bad vibes the longer we get into it. For all the nostalgia and love I have for the classic series (I also love that James Remar is back), I think the original Dexter did the series a disservice that the revival is fixing. It feels like Dexter is in his "Heisenberg" era in these new episodes, and if that's confusing, allow me to break it down. Both Dexter And Walter White Are Easy To Root For, Despite Their Crimes Breaking Bad and Dexter do a great job at taking unsavory individuals (a drug dealer and serial killer) and making them sympathetic. Both are similar in how they execute it as well, giving them noble intentions behind the despicable things they do. For Walter, this was raising as much money as he could to ensure his family was taken care of after he died of cancer. Of course, for Dexter, it's killing violent criminals who have either evaded the law or are operating completely under the radar. In real life, I think many of us could confidently say we won't root for these types of people in any scenario. Of course, Breaking Bad and Dexter both try to paint their heroes in the most favorable light possible, to the point that the fandom is tricked into villainizing more rational characters like Skyler White or Maria LaGuerta. These two characters in particular I like to compare, because both shows used illicit affairs to paint them in an unfavorable light. No one likes a cheater, and I applaud both for using that to make the audience more in the corner of the clear bad guys of the show, just because they were shown something unsavory about a character they might otherwise empathize with. Part Of What Made Breaking Bad Incredible Was How It Reshaped Walter White Breaking Bad is widely regarded as one of the greatest shows of all time for many reasons, but for me, what sends it over the top is how it reshapes how the viewer feels about Walter White. Throughout the entire series, we see him evolve from a man who is clearly out of his depth to the mythical figure we come to know as "Heisenberg." A lowly school teacher turns into a drug kingpin throughout the length of the series, and ultimately becomes a terrible person in the process. What starts out as a quest to financially support his family after his death soon becomes a quest to gain as much money and power as possible. He seems to get a great sense of pride that he was manufacturing the best meth in the southwestern United States. It becomes all-consuming, and the deeper he gets, the more willing he is to do despicable things to maintain the status quo. There are plenty of mind-blowing moments where you simply can't believe the person he's become, from allowing Jesse Pinkman's girlfriend Jane to die, to poisoning a child. Dexter also has its share of mind-blowing moments, but the series lacked the kind of gut-punch that made you feel guilty for rooting for Dexter. Even when he let Doakes die, I didn't really feel too bad for the sergeant, despite having plenty of reason to. Doakes is essentially a villain because he's a good cop who had a suspicion that his colleague was up to some shady stuff, and it turns out he was 100% spot on. At the end of Dexter, Morgan ends up getting away with it all and living in the woods. Not the sort of justice he ultimately deserved as a serial killer, which is ultimately delivered in the novels. Dexter New Blood And Resurrection Have Leaned Into Reminding Us That He Is Not A Good Person, Despite His Own Opinion Dexter: New Blood and Resurrection have done a good job thus far of bringing the thing that made Breaking Bad great into its latest stories. Via Harrison, his former girlfriend Angela Bishop, and now his old colleague Angel Batista, we're slowly being shown again that, at the end of the day, Dexter Morgan is a serial killer. Sure, he often tries to kill others who committed heinous crimes and act by his code, but he still only does this because he struggles to resist an urge to kill. Harry's code or not, he's not a good person, and even his own son recognized that. Even recently in Resurrection, when Dexter went on a manhunt for a serial killer that was using his moniker as "The Dark Passenger," it was more about his pride and the thrill of a kill than it ever really was about a moral code. What's also true is that Dexter is a survivalist first and foremost. He went and killed the innocent Sergeant Logan under the guise that it was necessary to save Harrison. In reality, he doesn't really want to face any retribution for his various crimes despite the noble intentions he claims to have for his hundreds of murders. If he did, he wouldn't have fled the city when Angel Batista went to visit him at the start of Resurrection, and I'll be curious to see how he responds should his former friend and colleague get a little too close to the truth later in the series. It really feels like the revival is finally showing us the plot lines that prove Dexter is not the hero the original series portrayed him as, and I'm all here for it, assuming they stick the landing. Catch new episodes of Dexter: Resurrection on Fridays with a Paramount+ subscription, or on Showtime on Sundays at 8:00 p.m. ET. I'm very excited to see how the rest of this season goes, and if Dexter is going to reunite with his son after they parted ways at the end of New Blood. Solve the daily Crossword

'South Park' creators 'apologize' for latest Trump episode: 'We're terribly sorry'
SAN DIEGO – The day after one of the most controversial episodes in the show's history, 'South Park' creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone had a succinct response to the ruckus they caused. 'We're terribly sorry,' Parker said with a sly grin at a Comedy Central's Comic-Con animation panel next to Stone, 'Beavis and Butt-Head' honcho Mike Judge and 'Digiman' creator Andy Samberg. The Season 27 premiere of 'South Park' tore into President Donald Trump, showing him literally getting into bed naked with Satan, and referenced their Paramount bosses' settlement with the president, the '60 Minutes' flap and the surprise cancellation of CBS's "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert." All followed Wednesday by an agreement between Paramount and the 'South Park' creators for 50 new episodes and a lucrative new streaming deal on Paramount+. White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers slammed the episode in a statement to USA TODAY, calling "South Park" a "fourth-rate show" that "hasn't been relevant for over 20 years." When Comic-Con panel moderator Josh Horowitz joked that he had a subpoena with him, Parker responded, 'It's fine; we're ready.' Parker and Stone talked at length about the speed of today's topical comedy and making newsy jokes. 'It's not just 'SNL' anymore,' Stone said. Parker revealed that they were at their studios this morning trying to figure out next week's episode. 'Right now we don't know,' Parker said. 'It's super stressful.' And when working on the July 23 season premiere, 'three days ago I didn't know if anyone's going to like this,' Parker added. They were looking at newspapers and changing things on the fly right up until they needed to be done. As far as big ideas for the season go, 'my whiteboard's blank, dude,' Parker said. So much so that when they were asked to do a summer promo video hyping the new season, they made up a bunch of scenes just for that sizzle reel. 'You seriously think we went and made a bunch of shows ahead of time and banked them?' Then Stone chimed in, mock seriously: 'No politics. We're not doing any of that (stuff).' Stone said he feels most competitive with 'what the kids are doing on TikTok and YouTube.' In fact, he and Parker admitted they now get a lot of their entertainment online and from social media. 'We have a great gig, but I'm jealous. You see someone do something in their front yard and it's really funny.' Contributing: Brendan Morrow
