I hope so. I'm not so big on the Smits. Never was.

He always seems to be overreaching. In the last three roles I can remember him in (West Wing, Cane and Dexter) he seemingly plays an actor that is working too hard to deliver his lines...

Re: Dexter: Season 3 - Episode Discussion

I finally caught up with last week's episode of Dexter. It was a bit slow and not much really happened. There was a lot of character base laying with Quinn and Ramone (along with a sizable Rita/marriage angle.) There have to be "informational episodes" now and again to set up the big reveals.

I am still going with Quinn as the serial killer this season (and I am also guessing Ramone eventually ends up dead.)

On a positive note, tonight's preview looked really good!

Re: Dexter: Season 3 - Episode Discussion

I just finished watching it for the second time.

My hope is that Dexter wakes up and realizes that Miguel is not good for him. It's making him sloppy and veering off his course. On the one hand it is a convenient friendship and Dexter can claim that Miguel turned him into this monster if he should ever get caught.

This plot line needs to pick up pace. In season 2 we were knee deep in plot thickness by this point.

Re: Dexter: Season 3 - Episode Discussion

I'm not sure if it is me or if I am really not enjoying this season because it's not that great. But it's probably neither and I'm just letting my illogical hate of Jimmy Smits cloud my judgment.

I want to shake Dexter. WTF are you thinking dude! Miguel is not your friend. OMG Dex is going to get caught.

Also, the skinner...my husband thinks it's the new detective, but I just think that's too handy. Then again so is Ramon. hmmm. I kind of like the new detective and think that would be a good hook-up for Deb.

About Dexter and Miguel's little partnership, I am thoroughly confused. He obviously set Dex up with this kill by eliminating a threat to his family, but how is that possible when Dex said he'd been waiting 10 years to do this guy???? It doesn't compute for me, but I must have missed something. Dex is pretty thorough, you'd think he'd know what the guy looked like. But the dude seemed genuine when he uttered you have the wrong guy just as Dexter gagged him.

I am two weeks behind now....

I guess that tells the story of where I am in regards to this season.

I am going to be 4 weeks behind after tonight. Is the story turning? Is it getting better?
