    Critic’s Ranking: 5 / 5.0

    Dexter: Unique Sin has formally entered the scene, and it’s already giving NCIS: Origins a run for its cash.

    Whereas NCIS: Origins explores the backstory of our beloved Leroy Jethro Gibbs, Dexter: Unique Sin takes us again to the twisted beginnings of certainly one of TV’s most iconic anti-heroes — Dexter Morgan.

    On Dexter: Unique Sin Season 1, Episode 1, we’re transported to 1991, the place we witness the early formation of Dexter’s homicidal urges. And let me let you know — it doesn’t disappoint.

    Michael C. Corridor is again, bringing his signature Dexter attraction to the narration, reminding us why we fell in love with this character (and the OG sequence) within the first place.

    And Patrick Gibson? He nails younger Dexter — capturing every little thing from the eerie calm to the awkwardness that made the unique Dexter such a compelling character.

    It’s not simply the younger Dexter who impresses, although. The Dexter: Unique Sin solid is full of incredible performances.

    From Molly Brown as Debra to Christian Slater as Harry, James Martinez as Angel,  Christina Milian as Maria as Maria,  and Alex Shimizu as Vince, they carry the OG characters again to life with exceptional accuracy.

    Even the newcomers — Sarah Michelle Gellar as Tanya Martin and Patrick Dempsey as Captain Aaron Spencer — add a recent dynamic to the present.

    Now, let’s rewind a bit earlier than we dive into the sequence premiere.

    The unique Dexter sequence ran from 2006 to 2013, spanning eight seasons of suspense, thrills, and a variety of bloody enjoyable. However, as many followers will agree, the ultimate season left a nasty style in our mouths.

    That’s when Showtime gave us Dexter: New Blood in 2021, delivering the ending Dexter deserved after that infamous finale: Dexter Season 8, Episode 12, “Keep in mind the Monsters?”. It was the redemption all of us wanted.

    However now we’re going again — approach again.

    The premiere of Dexter: Unique Sin provides us a recent have a look at how Dexter’s darkish passenger was born, and from what we’ve seen thus far, that is going to be a wild experience.

    With a stellar solid and a few killer (pun supposed) performances, this sequence is shaping as much as be a present we didn’t know we wanted.

    On this first hour, we meet Dexter as he’s being revived within the hospital after being shot by his son, Harrison

    (The capturing occurred within the last episode of Dexter: New Blood and appears to be establishing the premise for the sequel to that sequence — Dexter: Resurrection).

    After flatlining for a couple of minutes, he’s resuscitated and, by way of narration, talks about how life flashes earlier than your eyes, and that is the place his story begins — type of. We see his beginning after which flash ahead to life with Harry and his household.

    I think about we’ll be delving into all the remainder of how he got here to be with Harry Morgan and his household in some unspecified time in the future, however this hour, we’re beginning with Dexter’s first kill.

    (Picture Credit score: Patrick Wymore/Paramount+ with Showtime)

     Who would have thought Dexter’s first sufferer can be an “Angel of Dying” within the type of a nurse who believed she was serving to her sufferers by ending their struggling?

    However her mistake was focusing on Harry, who had a coronary heart assault and ended up within the hospital the place the nurse labored.

    Dexter’s urge to kill was inconceivable to suppress, and Harry wasn’t blind to it. In a second of each understanding and maybe desperation, Harry gave Dexter the inexperienced mild to take out the nurse.

    It wasn’t about Harry’s personal wants (although he actually wasn’t able to die) — it made sense in his thoughts to let Dexter launch his darkish urges on those that actually deserved it.

    Harry had been making an attempt every little thing to divert Dexter’s urgings — from searching journeys to permitting him to principally eat uncooked meat — however deep down, he should have identified he couldn’t comprise Dexter without end.

    This was a person who hid clippings of notorious serial killers like Ted Bundy, the Night time Stalker, and the Zodiac Killer inside his Playboy journal.

    (Picture Credit score: Patrick Wymore/Paramount+ with Showtime)

    That was his turn-on –- not the bare girls in these pages. He was nonetheless a virgin (and he wasn’t speaking within the sexual sense.)

    He questioned if he would ever make it into the newspapers, ought to he ever go full-throttle into serial killing. He additionally questioned if he’d get a nickname if he had been ever caught. These killers had been his idols.

    And though Dexter knew this lady was killing sufferers, he nonetheless double-checked to ensure his suspicions had been right earlier than he even broached the topic with Harry.

    So, Nurse Dying was really a blessing in disguise.

    (Picture Credit score: Patrick Wymore/Paramount+ with Showtime)

    Harry isn’t a monster — he’s a person who needs to guard his household.

    Letting Dexter act on his darkish urges is the very last thing he’d ever want for, but when Harry had been to die, who can be there to information Dexter and hold him from changing into a monster himself?

    In a flashback, we see Harry distracted by a baseball recreation whereas his younger son, Junior, wandered into the yard and tragically drowned within the pool.

    Although this episode doesn’t totally discover how Harry got here to undertake Dexter (a few of that was revealed within the unique sequence), it’s clear that this traumatic loss is what’s driving Harry to make choices he may by no means have made as a cop.

    What we’re witnessing is a father making an attempt to guard his son — his soon-to-be serial killer son — by permitting him to satisfy his urges in a approach he believes is managed.

    (Picture Credit score: Patrick Wymore/Paramount+ with Showtime)

    Harry’s want to remain alive is rooted in his need to guard his youngsters, which is why he in the end gave Dexter the go-ahead to handle Nurse Dying.

    Dexter by no means would have gone by way of with it had Harry not allowed it.

    What’s fascinating is that Harry had no response to how Dexter disposed of the nurse’s physique.

    Much more fascinating is how open and trustworthy Dexter was with Harry — he was the one particular person Dexter could possibly be actually himself with, till later with Hannah and Debra.

    Talking of Debra, the connection we noticed between these two siblings within the OG sequence, is on full show right here. It hasn’t modified. However what we do see is how Dexter has adopted his father’s protecting instincts.

    This was evident when Dexter accompanied Debra to a school occasion the place she was virtually raped after passing out drunk on the mattress.

    (Picture Credit score: Patrick Wymore/Paramount+ with Showtime)

    Dexter didn’t hesitate to take the man out, and had it not been for Debra, Dexter may’ve really killed the man.

    Debra didn’t even understand she wanted defending, however she was grateful that Dexter was there. Their bond, strengthened throughout their father’s hospital keep, showcased their awkward however unbreakable connection.

    She even confirmed up at his pre-med commencement after he blew off her championship volleyball recreation as a result of he feeding Nurse Dying to the alligators.

    Whereas the connection we noticed within the OG Dexter stays, this sequence provides us a deeper understanding of what actually made it so sturdy.

    To say Dexter: Unique Sin provides off OG Dexter vibes is an understatement. It’s phenomenal in each approach, and every episode will possible warrant a rewatch, due to all of the intelligent callbacks to the unique sequence.

    For instance, when Dexter performs an post-mortem in his pre-med class, he’s fascinated by the truth that the physique has no blood — a nod to Dexter Season 1, Episode 1 “Dexter.”

    (Picture Credit score: Patrick Wymore/Paramount+ with Showtime)

    And that’s simply certainly one of many callbacks (the opening, the mosquito, the haircut). Plus, the music is on level, with tracks from Naughty by Nature, Vanilla Ice, and Poison including to the nostalgia.

    (And all these different particulars I didn’t element like what makes him completely satisfied? American Psycho).

    And Sarah Michelle Gellar as Dexter’s forensics mentor at his new job at Miami Dade Metro? Undoubtedly the cherry on high.

    All in all, it was a well-written, well-acted premiere, and I can’t wait to see the place the subsequent episode takes us.
