How Dexter: Resurrection Sets Up Season 2 and Beyond

by

The last episode of “Dexter: Resurrection” has aired, and it surprisingly wraps up many plotlines, yet leaves some for Season 2. For a series that ended twice and has been controversial, it’s surprising how much fans have loved this revival. It delivers what fans have longed for while keeping things interesting and innovative. The show also took risks, even though many predicted them early in the season.

The revival series titled “Dexter: Resurrection” surprisingly eliminated some cherished characters from the past, yet it stirred minimal controversy given the franchise’s history of causing fan outrage. Remarkably, this season has left fans feeling a sense of optimism for the franchise – an emotion seldom felt in recent times. Despite “Dexter: New Blood” receiving acclaim during its initial broadcast and facing backlash only with the finale premiere, it seems the current season will avoid mass negative reviews. With all that considered, let’s explore how “Dexter: Resurrection” paves the way for Season 2 and possibly beyond.

Dexter: Resurrection Episode 10 Sets Up a Big Future for the Show

Resurrection” concludes neatly, leaving little room for major plot twists that might typically leave viewers on edge if it were truly the last season. Nevertheless, the series lays groundwork for future murder and drama. The most significant loose end is left dangling – Al managed to elude Dexter in a previous episode of “Dexter: Resurrection”, an unprecedented escape that usually doesn’t stick. Despite expectations that he would reappear, Al was absent for the remainder of the season, leaving some fans surprised and curious about his potential return.

As I found myself ensnared within Prater’s imposing vault, my curiosity piqued as I stumbled upon an array of files detailing multiple serial killers under his watch. Upon securing my freedom, I couldn’t resist the urge to grab several of these incriminating documents and cram them into a bag – all against Harry’s frantic pleas to leave them behind. The adrenaline coursed through me as it became evident that I was determined to utilize these files for my own justice, aiming to bring each one of those killers to account. Yet, amidst the heat of the moment, I left a few of those incriminating files behind – knowing full well that they would still serve as vital evidence in apprehending these monsters at large.

One character that he successfully keeps in his grasp is Al’s. It appears probable that Dexter will pursue Al to Wisconsin and complete his mission. While Al might not seem compelling enough for an entire season, it could be more fitting to present this as a standalone episode or perhaps the first part of two episodes to kick off Season 2. A comparison can be drawn with the Nebraska episode from Season 6, where Dexter journeyed to the Midwest to confront Jonah Mitchell.

Dexter doesn’t just have Al in his crosshairs; there are other potential victims as well. Dexter collected a pile of various documents, some details about which remain unknown. It appears doubtful that all these people reside in New York City, though one is indeed based in Yonkers, NY. Could it be that the subsequent seasons of Dexter: Resurrection might unfold in different states or even foreign countries? While it’s uncertain, such a development would certainly add novelty and excitement to the series.

In principle, the series could potentially continue for several years, given Dexter’s extensive collection of files. It’ll be intriguing to watch as his tally of victims might increase further. It seems that there are significant plans ahead for the revival of Dexter, as confirmed by writer and producer Scott Reynolds, who has outlined three seasons of Dexter: Resurrection, with potential for more if Michael C. Hall agrees to return. However, the specifics of these upcoming stories remain unclear.

After wrapping up the season quite neatly, Charley has left the show alive but it seems unlikely she’ll return, as Prater is deceased and she ended her association with him. Harrison is happily in a relationship, Batista is no longer around, having met his end. Detective Wallace discovered the identity of the New York Ripper, which will likely result in an immediate arrest instead of prolonging the conflict throughout the season. There’s a chance Joey Quinn might reappear in Dexter: Resurrection Season 2 since he knows Batista was in New York and may learn about his death. However, whether that leads him to Dexter is still uncertain.
