OK, so we’re into the last third of the third series of Dexter in this country, and we’re not going to see series four until next year on FX, but here’s a little nugget that should whet the appetite. Dexter is one of of my favourite shows, but in this series it pains me to say that it hasn’t been the best. Michael C Hall and Jennifer Carpenter are still brilliant, and I still love the little bubbling storylines involving Laguerta, Batista and Masuka, but the core storyline involving Dexter and Prado had run its course after a couple of episodes. Series four? This much I know – John Lithgow will be joining the cast as a serial killer who Dexter becomes interested in, and Lundy returns. But the biggest talking point is Dexter becoming a father, and this is what this slightly creepy promo poster uses as its backdrop. Have a look after the jump.
