Surprising indeed. I am still in a state of shock at Dexter's season finale for Season 7. Who wouldn't? As Deb and Dexter seemingly walking away with "another" murder - this time, Miami Metro's Captain LaGuerta.
Dexter blurted "Do what you gotta do", a familiar line from Hannah McKay that got Debrah to shoot and kill LaGuerta over her brother, and love, Dexter. I got to admit that this is one of my favorite seasons of Dexter along with season 4 where the Trinity Killer rummaged Dexter's life and evidently killing his wife Rita on that same season.
I feel awful that LaGuerta has to leave the show in that fashion, but it seem to be obvious that she'll get killed in this season.She's been consistently persistent and got too nosy with the Bay Harbor Butcher case and framing Dexter in killing Estrada. I, seriously, was not expecting Deb to pull the trigger. That scene came out of nowhere.
Deb made an ultimate sacrifice and again proved her love to Dexter by killing Lauren Velez's character. Man, that was breathtaking!
I have a lot of reasons why I need to watch out for Dexter's upcoming season 8 on September. Hannah McKay played by Yvonne Strahovski will definitely be back and I am so looking forward to it. She makes me like her and hate her all at the same time.
They said that the next season will be the last of this Showtime masterpiece but there were also news circulating Hollywood that there may be a season 9. That is music to my ears. Dexter doesn't fit to end in one more season primarily because a lot of loose ends and secrets to be revealed. An appropriate season 9 should be set for conclusions and closures for each characters.
It's sucks to wait for another 9 months just to see what's next after LaGuerta's untimely death. I'm afraid either Batista or Joey might not come back (oh no!) but who knows.
All I know is that it just keeps getting better and better and the producers are doing pretty well in having Dexter fans get hooked every second of it.
