GameTime Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 (edited) I don't think I've EVER hated a character as much as the new Dexter. He's incredibly painful. I actually like sarcasm, but he takes it way, way too far. Everything he says is full of sarcasm, he's completely over the top. I think I've laughed at about 2 things he's said in a month. He better ease up on it because he's driving me insane, so much so that I had to turn off last nights episode because I couldn't take him any more. It's like they're trying to develop a new Robbie, problem is that Robbie was an exceptional character, lots of depth, and was legitimately funny whereas Dexter is just plain annoying and forced.

alexx Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 ^I actually found Robbie to be all of the things you just said about Dex. Imo its not fair to compare the two since Dexter has been on for a few weeks, Robbie was there years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but I found Robbie instantly likeable, whereas I'm not even sure that the actor who plays Dexter can do anything else OTHER than act sarcastic. He's so forced in everything he does, not the least bit funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halcyon06 Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 Although way more attractive than the old Dexter, he's waaaaay to sarcastic. Its so annoying! If he pulled it back just a bit I think I could really like him! So far I just want to SCREAM at him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zetti Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 I love his sarky comments, I love him more than the other one! He is such a breath of fresh air although when he was talking to Romeo about Annie, I couldnt really get to grips with it, it took me a few moments to realise that he used to date her.

oseri Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 I think he's working well so far; I quite like that he goes too far sometimes, like telling Romeo about Indi's dream. It's also interesting that he seems to care about fitting in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dncllpyk Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 I think the new Dexter is great. The new actor has actually worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current writers have no idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameTime Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 (edited) I watched all the eps via the 'H&A catch-up' and was pleasantly surprised, a very decent week, especially the first 2-3 nights. Liked Xavier's scene with Palmer about doing the opposite. I'd obviously like to discuss this in the H&A forum but for some reason it says 'Protected Forum'??
