One week after the finale aired, it's time to grade Season 1 as a whole!
After an intense 10-week run, Dexter: Original Sin, the highly anticipated prequel series set in 1991 Miami—15 years before the events of the original Dexter—has officially wrapped up its first season.
When the prequel was first announced on May 23, 2024, many fans were skeptical about revisiting Dexter’s origins. However, as months passed, opinions started shifting. By the time Dexter: Original Sin premiered on December 13 on Paramount+ with Showtime, the excitement had grown—and as the season progressed, fan reactions changed dramatically, with many praising the show’s execution.
With younger versions of beloved characters brought to life by a stellar cast, a gripping storyline, thrilling Easter eggs, and surprise character returns, Dexter: Original Sin quickly became a fan-favorite. The show captured the signature Dexter atmosphere, enhanced by the unmistakable Miami vibe and the return of Daniel Licht’s haunting original soundtrack, making it feel like a seamless extension of the franchise.
Now that it's been a full week since the Season 1 finale, Code Blues, debuted, it's the perfect time for fans to reflect on the season as a whole.
