Dexter: Resurrection Review
Ten years after the original series ended, there’s still no telling when the franchise will wrap up, and that’s a good thing, considering the show’s global fanbase and Michael C. Hall’s consistently compelling portrayal of the titular character.
Like the earlier sequel Dexter: New Blood and the prequel Dexter: Original Sin, Dexter: Resurrection continues the title character’s complex journey as a serial killer who was methodically trained by his adoptive father, who was a cop, to channel his homicidal urges toward eliminating others like him. In doing so, he satisfies his thirst for blood while ridding the world of psychopaths and criminals who prey on the weak and innocent.
Picking up where “New Blood” left off, Dexter: Resurrection has been well received by both critics and audiences. It currently holds an 87% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a 9.1/10 on IMDb, a testament to the enduring talent of the main cast and the creative team behind this long-running franchise. As for its streaming numbers, it became Showtime's most-streamed series during launch, drawing 3.1 million global cross-platform viewers within the first three days.
