F Is for Fuck-Up

Scenes feel rapid paced. All of these episodes feel rushed, unlike the original Dexter series, where there was time to express a scene. Now everything feels like it was made for people who'd glance at their phone periodically.

The scene with the cop walking in an finding her favorite guitar was so incredibly expected that I said her exact line before she said it herself, which we all laughed at. There was no tension at all. I could have yawned.

When Dexter gets home, Harry is already going off on him and asks why Dexter didn't tell him what happened to Mad Dogg with the whole "when were you gonna tell me?!" spiel. Mind you Dexter just came back from ensuring his following of the code.

What was he gonna do? Break the code and call from a booth which would trade the call to the crime if they investigated his death?

Was Dexter supposed to notify him through carrier pigeon?

I could go on about how this series fails the original, but let's just end it there.
