A beloved crime drama will finally be making its way back to Netflix, with the streaming platform announcing that the entire eight seasons of Dexter will become a part of their catalog once more on June 19. The thrilling series about a forensic expert when it comes to bloodstain pattern analysis hasn't been seen on Netflix for a long time, but hardcore followers of the show will get yet another chance to relive their favorite moments from the project created by James Manos Jr. An unforgettable story of blood and betrayal starring Michael C. Hall as the titular character will be coming back, more than a decade after the original series came to an end.

Dexter introduced the titular character as someone who witnessed the brutal murder of his mother at a young age. After being adopted by Miami police officer Harry Morgan (James Remar), the young man was inspired to become the forensics expert seen over the course of the show. However, Dexter quickly becomes a vigilante who uses his own job to cover up his crimes, as he attempts to behave like a normal person even if he can't seem to understand the experience. Part of what made Dexter such a beloved title over the years was its supporting cast, who stuck around while the criminal continued his quest of helping his community in unconventional ways.

Dexter also featured performances from Jennifer Carpenter, Erik King and Lauren Vlez, with all the actors being part of the main cast at different points of the story. The original title ran for over the course of eight seasons, and while it seemed that audiences had seen the last of the character, the story of Dexter Morgan wasn't over, allowing Michael C. Hall to return to the role of the twisted vigilante once more.

Dexter: New Blood premiered on Showtime eight years after the original story came to a close, and it followed the titular character after he had faked his death during a hurricane. After establishing a romantic relationship with Angela Bishop (Julia Jones), the character is afraid to find out if his dark past will catch up to him in a thrilling continuation of the story fans know and love. A second season of Dexter: New Blood centered around the protagonist's son is currently in development, even if a release date hasn't been set by the network.

The very first season of Dexter was based on "Darkly Dreaming Dexter," a novel written by Jeff Lindsay that turned out to be the first in a series of stories following the titular character. However, after the first season of the television adaptation was released, the team behind the project took their version of the character in a different direction, even if Lindsay continued to write novels about the methodic killer. The most recent title in the book series, "Dexter Is Dead", was released almost a decade ago, while the legacy of the protagonist continued to expand on television through the series developed by James Manos Jr. Dexter's imminent return to Netflix will also allow viewers who missed the story when it was aired for the first time to dive deep into the psychology of the unpredictable character.

There is a plethora of crime dramas currently on the streaming services, and a classic serial killer drama has just returned to Netflix in the US. It's time for subscribers to revisit all 8 seasons of Dexter on Netflix from today (June 19). Michael C. Hall played the killer with a code in 96 jaw-dropping episodes, before reprising the role in spin off, Dexter: New Blood in 2021.

It seems like a good time to binge all the original episodes before the prequel series, Dexter: Original Sin is launched on Showtime in the not too distant future, with filming underway. The original series featured a superb supporting cast, including Jennifer Carpenter, David Zayas, Luna Lauren Velez, C S. Lee, Desmond Harrington and James Remar. It also featured a string of stunning guest stars portraying Dexter's killer enemies, including John Lithgow as the Trinity Killer, Jimmy Smiths as dodgy DA, Miguel Prado, Jonny Lee Miller as motivational speaker Jordan Chase and Colin Hanks as the Doomsday Killer.

Dexter launched on Showtime back in 2006, and it was based on Jeff Lindsay's series of books. As the seasons went on, the series deviated from the books and created a brand-new direction for the titular serial killer, played by Michael C. Hall, who landed the role soon after his five-season run as funeral director, David Fisher on Six Feet Under came to an end.

The vicarious thrill of watching Dexter was seeing a serial killer who had a code of killing that only targeted bad people, making him one of the most complex characters in the age of antiheroes. Dexter's urge to kill was known as his dark passenger, and he faced off against many villains throughout the show's 8-year-run. Fans can now relive every kill on Netflix after all 96 episodes returned to the streaming platform on June 19.

Meet Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall): a blood spatter analyst at the Miami Metro Police Department and avenging serial killer by night, who takes out the many suspects who slip through the police's net, and wraps them up in plastic, kills them and dumps them in the ocean.

Season 1 sees Dexter come up against a formidable adversary known as The Ice Truck Killer (Christian Camargo), who dismembers and drains the blood from his victims. Dexter must track the killer down, who ends up being someone from his past, before he can kill those closest to him, including his sister and up-and-coming detective, Debra Morgan (Jennifer Carpenter).

The twist in season 2 is that the villain Miami Metro are trying to track down is... Dexter Morgan. When a series of dismembered bodies are found in bags in the ocean, an investigation is launched into a potential serial killer who is dubbed 'The Bay Harbor Butcher.'

Dexter must cover up his true identity as the Butcher, as FBI agent Frank Lundy (Keith Carradine) arrives in Miami to investigate the series of murders, while Detective James Doakes (Erik King) begins to piece to figure out Dexter isn't who he claims to be on the surface.

Dexter makes the mistake of killing the brother of the Miami DA, Miguel Prado (Jimmy Smits), opening up a can of worms. However, the pair become friendly, and Dexter finally thinks he has someone who can share his dark passenger with.

Miguel Prado is less than interested in Dexter's code, and when he murders an innocent defense attorney, he becomes a target for Dexter's kill table. As well as the drama with Miguel, Dexter must assist Miami Metro in bringing down a brutal serial killer known as The Skinner.

Arguably the best season of Dexter, Season 4 sees the introduction of one of the best villains in the series, The Trinity Killer (John Lithgow), who is planning his next series of murders. Frank Lundy is back on the case, and also rekindles his romance with Debra, before tragedy strikes, and he is killed.

Dexter befriends Trinity (a.k.a. Arthur Mitchell) and discovers they aren't too different from one another in many ways. Dexter is dealing with the birth of his son, Harrison, while Trinity has a family of his own. Dexter plays with the older serial killer a bit too much, and the season ends in tragedy with Rita's brutal death at the hands of Trinity.

Dexter is in a bad place after Rita's death, and seeks comfort in a young woman called Lumen (Julia Stiles) who he rescues from captivity, and the pair become lovers, and seek revenge on the man responsible for the abuse she suffered.

Dexter and Debra's relationship has hit rock bottom after the lieutenant of Miami Metro found Dexter in the middle of killing Travis Marshall (a.k.a. The Doomsday Killer) in an abandoned church. But her love for her brother conquers everything, and she covers up the murder, and goes against all her principles.

Unfortunately for the Morgans, LaGuerta discovers a blood slide at the crime scene, and opens up the Bay Harbor Butcher case again, and Debra must make a fatal choice between her serial killing brother and the woman who made her a detective. Dexter also faces off against a formidable gangster called Isaak Sirko (the late Ray Stevenson), who is less than pleased that Dexter murdered his lover.

It all comes to an end in an explosive final season, as Dexter discovers the origins of Harry's code, after Dr Evelyn Vogel (Charlotte Rampling) turns up in Miami to help with the investigation into a serial killer known as The Brain Surgeon.

Turns out, it was Vogel who originated the code, after advising Dexter's adoptive father, Harry, when Dexter was just a young boy. Dexter must also contend with the possibility of not killing again, as he seeks a fresh start with fellow serial killer, Hannah McKay (Yvonne Strahovski), when she resurfaces after being on the run.

Dexter is an American crime drama television series that aired on Showtime from October 1, 2006, to September 22, 2013.[1] Set in Miami, the series centers on Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall), a forensic technician specializing in blood spatter analysis for the fictional Miami Metro Police Department, who leads a secret parallel life as a vigilante serial killer, hunting down murderers who have not been adequately punished by the justice system due to corruption or legal technicalities. The show's first season was derived from the novel Darkly Dreaming Dexter (2004), the first in a series of novels by Jeff Lindsay. It was adapted for television by James Manos Jr., who wrote the first episode.[2] Subsequent seasons evolved independently of Lindsay's works while using many of the same characters and concepts.

The series enjoyed mostly positive reviews throughout its run. The first four seasons were widely praised, but reception dropped considerably as the series progressed. The show has received myriad awards, including two Golden Globes won by Hall and John Lithgow for their roles as Dexter Morgan and Arthur Mitchell, respectively. Season four aired its season finale on December 13, 2009, to a record-breaking audience of 2.6 million viewers, making it the most-watched original series episode ever on Showtime at that time.[3][4]
