Dexter: New Blood – How The Serial Killer’s Return Fixed The Show’s Ending

Dexter: New Blood saw the long-awaited return of the legendary serial killer and uses the 2015 novel Dexter Is Dead as a source text. The revival series premiered in November 2021, set 10 years after the Dexter original series finale, “Remember the Monsters?” It’s loosely based on Jeff Lindsay’s final novel in his Dexter series but with some significant changes. The original Dexter follows the titular Dexter Morgan, a man who from a young age, developed sociopathic tendencies. His foster father taught Dexter to channel his violent urges into vigilantism aimed at society’s most violent and evil murderers.
