Plus, the awful departmental romance has LaGuerta and the Sarge focused on other things.
 I think the writers do a great job of throwing in twists.  I usally anticipate them, but I never saw the reporter as Trinity's daughter, or the ending coming.  And despite the fact that I know Dexter can't and won't get caught for his murderous ways, I still get nervous when he gets (uncharacteristically) careless or when someone gets too close to catching him.  I think that speaks volumes for the writers.
 
 Did you watch the interview after the finale?  I'm looking forward to the darker Dexter next season.  And I'm wondering what the hell they're going to do with those kids.

 One of the writers on Dexter is the ex of a good friend of mine here. According to her (I've never met him) she supported him for years when he was a struggling writer and as soon as that show had any success, he left her for a younger woman. It doesn't seem really like my sort of show anyway, but now I have reason not to watch it out of friend solidarity.
