Colin Hanks was a guest on NPR's Wait Wait Don't Tell Me today.
He sounds just like his father and he's almost as funny.
Hard to imagine Mr. "Last-Nice-Guy-in-Hollywood" Jr. playing a serial killer. I bet he's really creepy and effective, though.

Ok, thanks Aries.
This week's episode was superb. I can't wait till next week!!
I agree. I'm so sad Brother Sam is gone. I always thought it was weird that the dog didn't bark at all at the guy who shot him. When they showed the video, I instantly knew it was Nick. Looks like Rudy is back!!! This should be interesting!
I have to correct myself and say that I meant Brian, not Rudy. Rudy was his fake name!
Great memory, Morbid - you rock! I think of him as Rudy, too! So glad I watch the show with my husband because he helps get me through my blonde moments. "Isn't that Rudy ice-truck-killer guy dead?" "Yes, honey...he's appearing as a ghost, just like Dexter's father." "Ohhhhh...[munches more Reese's Pieces]"
I'm the same way regarding spoilers as well - I want to be totally surprised by each episode
I posit that Deb really *did* love Quinn, at least at some point in the past, but she was too stunned to answer & say so at that moment because he was being a drunken dillweed at her party! Love how his "date" figured out he was being a jerk and blew him off!

haha Blonde moments. Yeah, Dexter's interactions with Brian are too real. I almost wish that they didn't let Brian touch things or hand things over to Dexter. His dad never does that (well, except for when he closed the door to Dexter's car when he arrived in Miami), so I found that to be weird. I hope he doesn't come back. He's a bit too evil and makes Dexter do things that could make him get caught.
Hey peeps what do you think of this years dexter and the finale? What are your opinion on how the next season may go?
I think the show is losing steam, but I thought it was a great finale. I only had one major issue. They started to make Louis out like he was a plotline waiting to explode, then ppphhhtttt..... Nothin'. I also find it ironic that right after Jennifer Carpenter and Michael C. Hall finalized their divorce, they wrote in that she's in love with him.
Louis is to-be-continued in Season 7. I saw an interview with the producer of the show that says everything that has happened in the last 6 seasons will be explained and answered in the next two (rumored to be three, maybe!) seasons.
The Deb and Dex think is a little skeevy - but Dexter doesn't feel the same about Deb and barely even knows she's there half the time. I think her feelings will help keep Dex from being turned in and with the way she feels about that "fucker" Travis (as she put it), I'm pretty sure she'll be okay with Dex doing him in - especially if he explains to her that he had tried to kill Harrison.
I wouldn't doubt if they decide to make it look as they found Travis (after devising some plan) dead - so Deb looks good for her job and shows up LaGuerta.
Also I have the feeling that therapist Deb has been seeing is nothing but a mind-fuck and maybe LaGuerta is in on it somehow, since Deb is on the verge of a nervous breakdown and this is LaGuerta's way to eliminate her before Deb tries to do any kind of snooping around and fuck her over like LG did to Matthews.
All in all, while some of it was predictable, I thought it was pretty good. I like all the little side storylines they had going - the tooth fairy guy, the night at the high school reunion and whatever else going on.
I LOVE this show, and while people have been bashing this season left and right on other boards, I just say "fuck them". It's pure mindless entertainment for me.
And I know the next 10 months before Season 7 comes around is going to be pure, fuckin' agonizing torture! Augh!
damn 10 months!! ugh i hate waiting, its worth the wait but still i want it now hehehe.

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.
I have a very vague memory of her. Bipolar and trying to buy a plane ticket after calling her family a bunch of terrorists? Good thing her family alerted the cops or who knows what the hell would've happened to her.
.
Seen it already but probably not everyone has yet. Thanks Aries
.
So excited, the season with Lithgow was genius, they totally lost me with Lumen, this past season's twist was apparent from the get go. This season better rock.
Oh, I think it will. Dexter hasn't let me down yet.
If it ever starts to suck continuously, I'll be the first one yelling take it off the air. I hate when good shows are allowed to go to shit. So far, this one's all good to me.
.
Ohhhhh SNAP!! This is looking good!

Wow, no mention of the premiere episode of Dexter season 7?
I thought it was really good. Deb knows about Dexter straight out of the gate. No pussy-footin' around and dragging it out. This looks like a really good season.
I got a sneak peek clip of episode two after Deb confronts Dexter. Some really good acting on her part.

(sorry, couldn't embed it!)
I liked it except for a few nitpicks. My biggest was the airport kill, no way in hell he could have gotten away with that. I also didn't like Deb going to a gas station very close to the church, the local gas station cameras would be checked. Jennifer Carpenter is at her most amazing when she is scared. The ending of the premiere made up for everything though.
For the most part enjoyed the first episode of season. Dexter looks really tired and stressed. As does Deb. We will see...
Even if it's due to them working together after the divorce or to his recovery from cancer, it works well with what's going on in the show right now. Could also be top notch acting. Either way, both of their characters would naturally look stressed right now. He has to admit he's a serial killer to the person who the truth will hirt most - especially if she finds out the history of it, including the part Harry played in helping Dex evolve.

Yep. LaGuerta and Angel's marriage just never sat right with me. And she's a bitchy, sycophantic pain in the ass,, which doesn't help too many people I know have any empathy for her character. The only time I liked her character was when she realized what Miguel was really like.
.
I used to watch Dexter religiously. I thought the very first episode was AWESOME! I was hooked! The last season I watched was with Lithgow. I really need to get caught up! I'm for sure gonna watch the last season. I hope he doesn't get caught!
Does it seem like Dexter is getting more evil or is it just me?
I can't stand Debra, I just want her out of the show
BTW I just thought of this great & fun game....
Before there is a public finish date for Dexter, why don't we post here what you want, how you want Dexter to end.?
I say season by season Debra starts to piece together that Dexter is the original serial killer after some scuba divers go down for their enjoyment, only to find the trash bags down at the bottom. The trash bags are collected & opened & guess what.... they are the remains if any, of Dexter's victims.
Debra traps Dexter as she loves her job so much and her hands are tied & she has to shoot him. Dexter is dead, Debra is..... I really hate to say this because i effin hate her with all my fibers.....is a hero. Then she quits the homicide work.
I am in season 6 and haven't started it yet- actually only onto the 2nd DVD.
PS anyone find it odd that Debra doesn't have flashbacks? It just occurred to me.

She does. In seasons 2 and 5.
.
I really love Deb. She's one of my favorites on the show. I especially love her potty mouth - probably because I have one of my own!
I don't see Deb dying on the show. I think she comes to accept Dexter for what he is. Altho if the show is going to end at Season 8, it's going to go out with some sort of bang to tie it all up pretty neatly.
You can't go far once people, especially Deb of all people, discover who Dexter is. Unless the people are going to agree with the fact that 'oh Dexter just kills bad guys. Okay then, I understand, cool. Next case...'
In the actual Dexter books - she does come to accept him.
They look fantabulous! And that chef's got quite the tongue twister of a name, lol.
.
This season, only one episode in, seems to have better footing than the last two. Especially five. That season, overall, I think was it's weakest. Last season, I felt okay with. Wasn't really amazing, yet not as low as five.
After watching the premier last week, I've been stoked about Dexter again. I can't wait until tomorrow's next episode
And those cupcakes look really cool!
What? Surprised to be the first to post about the latest episode...but I'm having insomnia...
pretty much loved it, except hard to believe how Deb's processing Dexter's dark passenger. Annoying character at times, but very well-portrayed IMO. When she punched him, I thought it might've been real, considering the emotional background of both characters and the actors themselves.
Love the twists and turns with Dexter's "harmless" stalker. As for this Russian mafia tie-in, we'll see...

Based on what I saw for the preview for episode 3...Louis is not long for this world. He was on the boat when the Russian Mafia stepped up for a visit.
This certainly has taken an upswing for the best now that Deb knows about Dexter’s secret. Can’t wait until next weeks episode now
What's all this fuss I hear about the Speltzer boy?
.
LOVED this week's episode!!! The scene where Deb tried to save the girl in the freaky-deaky's house was so Clarice/Buffalo Bill. Ooo!!! And complete left-turn with Louis (well, maybe you all saw it coming, but...when I watch suspense/horror shows/movies, I suspend the prediction part of my brain and just ride the roller-coaster). LOVE.
Still waiting to see what LaGuerta's gonna do.

SC.. What are your thoughts on this season so far?
Why just me? Not to be a butthole but I can listen to what I think all day long. So, what do you Boots, and all of you guys think?
Overall I think it's a dandy season. But nothing has topped Trinity yet, imo. Nothing.
.
You are such a brat. Dexter though... It's not catching me again this season. I want it to, but it's just not happening. I think the actor that plays Quinn needs some help outside of the show, and his plot is so damn boring. I'm with you on the Trinity season, that was some gooooood shit. I refused to watch this show at first because i'm a 6 Feet Under fanatic. I started from the first season, and watched it when it was new during Trinity. We watch Dexter and Homeland every Sunday, and Homeland is what i'm diggin' the most right now. The Russian "villian" this year, is just not doing it for me.Why just me? Not to be a butthole but I can listen to what I think all day long.
Possible spoilers about what happens the rest of the season. Do NOT click the link if you don't want to know!
