#Dexter - Zábava
You know hearing the entire story in one go made me think the ending was alright but I can imagine just how infuriating it must be for viewers after years of investment.
I was watching it live, and I was surprised, but not devastated.
I love the show has a whole beyond some flaws, the ending was fitting to me
i think the 10-episodes sequel season will give some more closure now.
Same here. I think the ending would've been recieved a lot better in today's era than when it originally aired.
@@chinmayasinghrawat4622 after how GoT Ended, I think it would've been worse. I think the issue is people think that art shouldn't require a suspension of disbelief. If you can't find a real life parallel, you can't imagine it. In a story book, dexter works VERY well.
Rita's death was hands down one of the best well played out story lines ever. NO ONE saw it coming.
ik I sure as hell didn't see it coming
Omg the pure shock that ran thru my veins
yeah, for me it was the most disturbing movie twist ever. it took me a couple of weeks to proceed =(
You're right, didn't see it coming, but I was thrilled. Rita's constant nagging and bossiness and guilt tripping Dexter was intolerable.
Easily the best season
I can't believe how much of this series I forgot considering how much I loved it. So glad to watch this recap prior to start watching the new episodes.
Same here lol
Literally thinking the SAME thing.
Dexter had quite a few women...I was so sleep on him! 🥴
Same!
Same here!
I forgot this dude had a whole son
“He tries the Ross defense, we were on a break”. That was hilarious! I appreciate those moments so much
Who doesn’t enjoy the Ross defense
But they were tho
@@Danlife112 I actually agree!
Also the “and Dexter is fully erect!” when he finds out lumen wants to kill the rest of the barrel girl gang.
And Dexters like “UH, WOULD YOU BELIEVE SELF DEFENSE?”
Howling.
“If you care about Bautista’s love life,” LOL
we don't do that here
I was JUST ABOUT to comment the SAME THING!!!😂😂😂
😂 😂 😂
That’s the neat part. You don’t.
Bautista is the lead right?😂
You have done us such a public service! I am so happy I found this! I really didn't want to watch all 8 seasons, again, before watching the new series, Dexter: New Blood, but knew I'd want to refresh my monkey mind about the finer points. You did an amazing job! And your sense of humor was an added bonus! :)
I rewatched the series after finishing New Blood and I honestly feel like the first 2 seasons were the most solid as far as the plots go. Season 4 with the trinity killer had so much potential early on but Dexter’s bad decisions halfway through basically ruined his entire life 😂
Is new blood any good?
The first four seasons of this show is some of the best television ever made.
By far still the best movie and series recap in the internet. OG Man of Recaps!
hail to the king of recaps 🙏
Let's start a cult guys LUL
Definitely! Every time I have to watch someone else's recap I wish it was Man of recaps instead, he's the best
Facts
Yes!! I've never had time to watch this great series, but now I don't need to. Thank you, MoR!!
They killed doakes a season too early that guy was awesome
Doakes
They killed him because he was too good..
@@sophiawilson8696 yup that's what I said
I agree he was a great character to hate
I miss Dexter.
I miss the show.
I will comment this on Dexter video every year, so he knows he always missed for decades.
Starting the new series and definitely needed a recap. Once I found "The Man of Recaps" recap on Dexter, I knew I was all set. Love your videos and commentary. Keep up the great work!
You have no idea how bad I wanted this. I literally was looking for a dexfer recap a few weeks ago and was sad when you didn’t have one
You wished it into existence, Brady.
"No, come one? We are NOT doing this plot line!"
Literally me whenever I see an adopted sibling relationship in movies and tv🤢 neither I, nor any of my adoptee friends, can even think of that as an option, it's just, so wrong
Same thing with Barry and Iris Allen they grew up together it’s so weird.
@@DarkMayhem666 nah it’s not. Barry has always had a crush on Iris. Joe took him in so he wouldn’t go into the system. Barry and Iris never had a sibling relationship. They were best friends when they were kids. Dexter and Deb were not. Dexter and Deb grew up together as siblings. That’s the difference. Barry and Iris never called each other brother and sister. The only people who hate the idea of this version of Barry and Iris is because Iris is black and they need to find any way to discredit their relationship.
@@xshewritesinblacknwhitex perfectly said
@@DarkMayhem666 ikr they don't even have anything in common
I'm perplexed that people draw the line there in a show about a mass murderer.
Watching New Blood. But didn't feel like re-watching the entire series before starting New Blood, so thank you for this, kind sir. Needed a refresher.
My exact thoughts
"Yeah, its weird you wrapped him in plastic first, but i guess." Hahahahaha
Dude has lots of feelings for someone with no feelings,
On another note, poison lady was the second worst love interest he had and he left his kid with her.
yeah, she was way too carazy
@@howard5992 Better her than Lila
Everyone has feelings, even psychopaths. They just have very little and have no empathy for random people
@@dansterstuff Pretty sure he said he doesn't feel in the show.
So who is first?
This is honestly the coolest recap I have ever seen you do; and, I never even watched Dexter.
As someone who devoted years to the show, I friggin love this recap XD
This recap got interested in watching Dexter!
The dude sounds like he’s on methamphetamine, but isn’t cool enough to actually use drugs.
I have just discovered the most important, life-changing channel on CZcams. Thank you, Man Of Recaps.
Dude... that was EPIC! I had watched that whole thing but had forgotten a lot and your recap was perfect. Hilarious delivery, too. 💯
These recaps have perfect amount of detail without explaining every plot point to death
"Her name is Lumen, which, of course, is not a name" :)
I thought the original ending was at least decent. Living as a lumberjack is Dexter's way of punishing himself by constantly subjecting himself to the sound of chainsaws (which killed his mother) as his penance.
Thanks for making this video. You deserve millions of subs for the effort put into these. Made me rethink the series and appreciate the story more.
"there's more guys Hey do you want to help me kill them?"
"And Dexter is FULLY ERECT" 💀😭
😆😆😆
DEXTER’S EVEN ERECTER
I completely forgot Bautista even had a love life))
Your recaps are the best!
@J N u r absolutely right. i shouldn't have could. Bautista deserved better.
Absolutely love the way this guy recaps movies/shows 😂 “Dexter’s like ‘cmon Dad, you’re harshin’ my vibe” 😭😭😭
That's THE funniest and most well spoken recap of anything I've ever seen. I cracked up in a whole body laughter plenty of times ! Awesome stuff!!
bro you killed it with this one. Haven't seen a single episode but this did it for me.
Season 1-4 still good to watch. Skip the others.
@@djpstacked no 5-8 are great too
You should, is a great show the whole way through
Your commentary is absolutley hillarious... How you describe plot twists " OH NO !" This is pure gold ! Thank you !
Idk why I'm watching this, but it's EXACTLY what I wanted and you've clearly put a lot of time into it. Thank you man!
"He tries the Ross defense" you are an absolute legend my man!
Seasons 1-4 are just real real good, 5-8 are not as bad as people remember, I really enjoyed them
honestly, I loved every season
I enjoyed all the seasons and even the finale which gets a tremendous amount of hate
I have to disagree. I binged watched the show this year and clearly noticed "the change" as the seasons progressed. So that could be a factor as I didnt have a break in between to forget past plots. Id say:
1-4: is the best
5 - 6: ok
7: took a break from watching at the middle (when he met hanna) Then continued on.
8: I could tolerate the first couple of episodes & then I slowly got angry. I still finished it because I wanted to watch the revival series.
I think I watched a recap of some of season 7 & 8 episodes because I couldnt bear watching dexter slowly dig his grave by making multiple stupid decisions.
@@k.a._135 I mean, he was essentially undergoing therapy. With volatile people, therapy is very dangerous, which is why a good counselor will employ methods to minimize risk to themselves. And if that person is also a serial killer....well. Psychologist here.
Honestly, the stupid mistakes were on the part of his "therapist". His own mistakes were more like dominoes, the volatiles reactions of an unstabled and damaged mind trying to heal. Further made worse, of course, by the events that happened, like losing sources of that healing.
Also, I was referring to his "therapist" in season 8.
@@Sohbek but he only had a therapist for one season (where he was so stressed & tense he couldnt sleep with Rita. Then learn to let it go). How could that extend to the rest of the series where he was essentially making rash decisions by himself (without a therapist following up on him).
What personally annoyed me is that he *repeated the same mistakes* over and over again *without learning from it* until it ruined him. I can understand him longing to have someone understand him & repeatedly getting hurt as a result, but how many times does he have to get hurt to understand that he shouldn't underestimate his enemy / people he tries to kill ? Specially after they know who you are/ where you live. Wasnt trinity enough for him to learn to never to delay a kill regardless ? *Thats what irritated me the most in the final half season 8 because he actually did that.*
We could say his increased mistakes & disregard to the past were due to him healing and becomming more human + *optimistic* (he didnt even want to kill anymore at the end of season 8 & was hopeful for a better life), but it still managed to annoy me how unaware he was of this. It was painful to watch someone lose everything because of the *same horrible mistake.* it was hard to watch.
This has reminded me how much I loved the first 4 seasons of this show. I can’t wait for the upcoming return of Dexter. I really hope the new season gives me a better sense of closure than what they came up with originally.
:/
Amazing recap. Covered everything important that happened in all the 96 episodes and made it amusing.
Thanks for the great recap! I felt like I watched the whole show for the first time again. I didn't realise I'd forgotten so much of it that I didn't see some of the twists coming!!
Thank you for the recap on Battista's love life!!!
imo the supporting cast was the stars of the show.
I like how I was thinking about watching this again, recap of the show appears, watches the recap, finds out Dexter is coming back. 10/10 experience.
@J N Iirc, his Awakening sparked before Lilah, but his time with her brought it to an unmistakable bon fire. Rita started feeling frisky first and Dexter thought their relationship might be screwed since he wasn't feeling yet.
dude. thanks for taking the time to do this. Really helps jog the memory. Loved all the humor as well.
You are fantastic! Saved me so much time with Dexter! I never could get past the second season.
I love your recaps. Even on series that I watched to completion, going through the recaps give me an "Oh yeah, that plot" feeling.
Dude... The Ross defense killed me 🤣🤣
Wow. Such a great video. If all your recaps are like this, I think I'll just watch recaps instead of whole series. Think of all the series I can come to know in enough depth in such a small amount of time. Life changing, that's what that is!
This was awesome! I totally forgot about certain parts so this was a super cool and fun reminder. Thank you! Xxx
This really is the perfect recap channel. you have 100% of my support!
I loved dexter at 15 but now I can’t think of rewatching before the next series thank you!
Wow, thanks for the great recap! I'm watching it for the first time and haven't gotten over Rita's death. I'm still disturbed, and thanks to you, I now have the certainty that I won't continue watching it but will finish Dexter. I'll just imagine that he never got caught, continues to kill bad guys, and leads a happy life with Rita and the family.
The best recap on Dexter I've seen on CZcams.
Too many funny lines of yours for me to quote here hehe
I like your sense of humour, your voice and your insight.
Keep up your awesome content, Man of Recaps!
Your fan and subscriber from Sydney, Australia
My god, thank you so much for this, I was searching CZcams for a recap and didn't find anything. Finally the best recap channel dropped this
I love a good series recap. Only watched up to season 5 so this has me nice and caught up, ready for more stabbage to come.
Tbh I stopped enjoying the show after s5. You probably got lucky.
honestly you can stop right there. as a huge Dexter fan, first 5 seasons were perfect.. after that it was only downhill. last 2 were absolutely terrible.
@@mayaamis i heard that first 4 were the best. The other 4 were fades of dying series.
This recap was AMAZING! Thank you ❤️
'Meet Dexter, a nice normal guy.. ' lol this should be good.
I would recommend rewatching the first and fourth season because they're too special.
This is your best recap yet, absolutely amazing video! I didn't have it in me to watch all the seasons of Dexter, but I really wanted to find out what happened. Thank you!
Just stumbled across this recap. Excellent job! That was great...and funny! All caught up again for the new season. Thank you.
I just want to thank you for the multitude of hours you must have spent going through all of the footage to recap this. Great job!!
Love the "Would you believe self defense?" meme.
OMG IVE REQUESTED THIS FOR THE LONGEST THANK YOU SO MUCH YOURE THE BEST!!!!!!!
Love the video! You're helping me watch TV shows I never thought I'd have the time
These full show reviews are just tremendous mate. I think many would be grateful for a Suits and The Wire recaps as those shows have ended and were popular. Longtime fan. Thanks.
This was BRILLIANT. I didn't make it through the whole series, but this was SO much better!
My side story that led me to appreciate Dexter:
I spent from 11 years old to 40 years old in what many people consider to be a religious cult.
It was a very restrictive life, so much so, that, often, in order to have a normal existence, a lot of people chose to live what the religion called a 'double-life'. That is, putting on a public persona of being an obedient member, faithful, dedicated, and a person who followed the endless rules that were there to prevent us from being so-called 'sinners', while secretly doing things that were forbidden by the religion, hoping not to get caught; most of our recreational options were dictated by the religion, as well as most of our time outside of necessary obligations like work.
I lived that 'double-life' too, trying to be a good member of the religion, while having skeletons in my closet; discovery of those skeletons could lead to expulsion and the loss of your entire network which could include family. I have family that haven't spoken to me in 9 years; people I considered friends for decades will never speak to me unless I return to the cult.
Anyway, one day a thought occurred to me that turned it all upside down. I didn't want to pretend anymore, nor did I want people heavily dictating my life at every angle. I walked away and lost everything. In the first year or so, all I did was go to work, return home, and watch TV, I had no clue how to make friends outside of the religion since we were taught people outside of it were 'bad' (it took a long time to start working at it). Shows like Dexter were my saving grace during that very lonely period.
Dexter was especially cathartic, because I really identified with him having to hide who he was while trying to conduct his 'legal' affairs; every time he almost got caught was a moment of complete identification for me with Dexter; because I knew what that felt like. Totally different 'crimes' but probably the similar feelings of " oh sh*t , I'm caught my life is over ". What a great show. Will always have a special place in my heart for Dexter.
have you seen the movie: Legend of 1900?
that movie is a tale of one mans isolation from family or connections while also truly connected to his saving grace.
The religion is ISLAM
I know this comment is two years old, but... were you a Jehovah Witness? Or possibly a Mormon?
This was the best Recap I have Ever Watched.. Thank You!
i was in the middle of dexter when it was taken off netflix. this showed me everything i needed for new blood! great job
Amazing that recap. So helpful. I read all the books and watched the entire series, but barely remember all this detail. Soo cool!
Thank you for the hard work you put into your videos man of recaps and thanks for doing dexter this series is amazing! Can't wait for the new season
wow, I saw the series originally but wanted a quick catch up and...this was so well done. entertaining, fun and to the point! very well done!! got me all excited to watch the new season, thank you Man Of Recaps!
I still don't understand how you don't have 10M subs by now...u are very clearly and obviously the best recap channel on youtube
.Thank you so much for this Recap. I love this Series from the beginning up to the end despite the ending. So hype for the new series.
That was an amazing recap! I can’t wait to watch more of your work!
Great recap- thanks!
I've seen this entire series know every detail and yet I still watch your recap two times all the way through LOL you are amazing and you deserve way more subscribers
I was waiting for something hot, and man, is this such a fire recap!!
You are a mad genius. I love your videos -- laughed out loud all the way through!
I'm so glad that I came across this recap! I forgot so much of the show and I'm about to watch Dexter New Blood and this was so helpful.
Take a shot every time he says "Get It ON!"
Dude is so great and entertaining. Watched this all the way through even though I came here looking for a completely different show!
man i was trying to contain my laughter for most of the time, letting out a little "haha" but one with hannah got me dying, wild ride from 19:00 - 11 is priceless, couldnt stop laughing while re.watchig it ahaha, man ur amazing, anyway cant wait for new season!
Thank-you so much for this! Wanted to watch the new season and watched your recap to refresh my memory. Great job!
Excellent man, excellent! I was so engrossed I was actually watching the vid, listening 2 UR voice like it was the actual series! 😍 Great job!
Nice!!!
Thank you so much, Man of Recaps!!
This was so helpful, funny, and well paced, thank you!
Great Job! So glad to find your channel. I know it has to be a helluva lot of work!!
That recap was AWESOME!! Thanks for that! Cant wait for the new show.
I wanted to recommend dexter recap so many times, especially when the new season was announced but I kinda had the feeling you were gonna do it anyway.
Thank you, this was godsent! Been watching you for years and you've saved me so much time with a lot of shows 💪
Been Waiting for this! Thank You.
Every time he says “And the siblings find a new, new normal,” I crack up 😂🙌🏼
Okay, the "Ross Defense" should totally be a thing for all types of series.
Thanks Sir, I really really needed this. I wanted to recap Dexter but its too much to re-watch everything and you managed to recap it all in under 30 min. Thank you! I'm ready for the new season!
"surprise mf" missed that part
This was so awesome! Many thanks, friend. I had forgotten so much. Now I can officially start the new season!
Amazing recap. This is a must for people that forgot things and want to watch the new season. This is definitely a 10/10.
I can't begin to tell you how grateful I am for this recap. Smart, to the point, fun, well narrated, great edit! Exactly what I needed!!
There's so much content out there and Dexter went under my radar (as well as plenty of other shows). I accept I'll never catch up on them all and need to pick and choose.
I certainly don't have time for 'bad seasons' or bloated side plots which I suspected of Dexter. I watched this video carefully, paused it, rewound stuff, took breaks, and was suprisingly entertained, shocked, even moved despite the recap format. Please keep up this great work!
This was a really good recap, exactly what I was looking for as I start New Blood. Thanks!
"You avenged my brother, you're my best friend" 😂😂😂
I just saved myself an entire week of binging on Dexter with this recap. Thanks man.
Incredible recap!
Great recap and great sense of humor.
Perfect, thanks for the solid recap. Just what I needed before New Blood.
Your summary is great and you told it in an absolutely captivating way. Thank you!!
