This Julia Styles character storyline on season 5 of Dexter is so bad.

Second worst season, behind the truly awful Colin Hanks one.

It's Season 6, it's so bad.

Season 4 was good. I don't think it was as good as season 2.

It’s been so long since I’ve seen season 2 I’m not sure if I can compare. 3 was underwhelming.

I may take a long break after this season. The Dexter character himself is so good I keep coming back amongst the rest of the crap.

Mickey wrote:We never saw the movie because it had been so long since we watched the series that we kept putting off doing the requisite refresher we would have to do, but at this point we should probably just watch the series again. I've seen it twice but it's so dense I'm sure it would reward another go.
i wonder what you’d make of the movie. i think it’s pretty shit. but i still worship at the altar of milch, even if he was hopelessly cracked (before the dementia really progressed). his lectures are a curdled aioli of recovery speak & kierkegaard. great artist and hellishly funny tho

I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Good show, but I also abandoned it at some point. Can be a bit much.

Awful show. First season kind of fun but was off the rails from like the second episode.
Can’t wait!
