Feeling like a retro Dexter

Very much in the vain of the first seasons of the show, there seems to be a good balance of humor, suspense, and character moments that feel familiar, but that we love. This is 100% for fans of the show, however one could just hop in this prequel season and enjoy it. Also, an over abundance of fan service is present, which is great for fans. Fortunately the show doesn't just rely of fan service, as it is added to what is so far a solid start to a good story. The actors are doing awesome, and the writing is on point! Any flaws that are present in this show is nothing the original show wasn't guilt of, (cheesy diologue, ect). Also it was great seeing Camilla!! So far, I'm digging the series. Can't wait for Resurrection.

Trivia
The name on Dexter's fake ID is Patrick Bateman - the titular character in "American Psycho," a best selling novel that was published in March 1991, thus only a couple of months prior to the events of the series. An early scene had also shown a copy of the novel, while in the original series, Dexter is revealed to be clinging to this alias in an effort to obtain M99.

Goofs
