Critics Reviews

Richard Rys New York Magazine/Vulture The writers are treading water, waiting for the green light to send this story where we all know it eventually is going. Jan 9, 2019 Full Review Ian Grey Salon.com Wherein a series that once deftly balanced dry wit and pulp opera becomes paralyzed by chatter, and the most memorable scene involves a floater's gut leaking CGI snakes. Jan 9, 2019 Full Review Martin Chilton Daily Telegraph (UK) The early Dexters were clever, sly and engrossing but, sad to say, the show seems to be suffering a slow and painful death. Rated: 1.5/5 Jan 9, 2019 Full Review Bill Chambers Film Freak Central The reason America loves "Dexter" is because he's not a serial killer but, increasingly literally, Batman. To me, though, he's starting to feel a bit too much like Mike Judge's Milton... Mar 3, 2022 Full Review Matt Barber Den of Geek After a slow start, the season hits its stride. The end of episode three... is a spectacular moment of morbid art, characteristic of the series, that easily makes up for its seemingly leisurely narrative set-up. Rated: 4/5 Apr 3, 2020 Full Review Kevin Yeoman Screen Rant Dexter focused too intently on pulling a fast one on its audience, and unfortunately sacrificed much of the season in the process.

Audience Reviews

matthias s "Dexter" Season 6: Entertaining but Not as GoodSeason 6 of "Dexter" isn't quite up to par with its predecessors, but it still offers an enjoyable ride. Despite a drop in quality, it's worth a watch for fans craving more of Dexter's dark charm. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/13/24 Full Review Jane K The bungling of every crime scene is cringeworthy. Gratuitous nudity, bad writing...comic relief with baptista and Quinn? Please. Dexter and supporting characters continue to carry the season. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 11/06/23 Full Review NONBELIEVER A bad season of Dexter would be considered the best season for another show. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/02/23 Full Review Juan B Dexter is getting into religion… nice. And this season just might prove that Dexter is human after all but in our minds he'll still be a different kind of beast. A neat one. Excellent season with a great villain, and an unbelievable but-was-expected-to-happen-sooner-or-later ending. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/19/23 Full Review Jackson87 Dexter season 6 was a disappointing continuation of the series. The plot was convoluted and lacked the suspense and intensity of previous seasons. The addition of a religious angle to the story felt forced and did not add anything substantial to the overall narrative. The new characters introduced were forgettable and lacked depth. Additionally, the season finale was anticlimactic and did not leave viewers on the edge of their seats like previous seasons. Overall, Dexter season 6 was a lackluster addition to the series and failed to live up to its potential. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/01/23 Full Review The ung B it's a good season, better than the 5 Showing religious elements was an interesting way to add a different symbolism to the show, overall well written and well acted. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
