using "secure" methods to get my hands on this puppy.

saddest part when Christine shoots her self because her father wnats nothing to do with her.

anyone played the dexter video game on the iphone?

awesome how deb found out dexter is a serial killer.

I didn't pick up on the fact that Deb realises Dexter is a serial killer. Just that he's the ice truck killers brother.

awesome how deb found out dexter is a serial killer.

I cant believe he just killed her instead of trying to get her on board!!!!

What? Dexter kill Deb?

It was awesome

Wow. epic ep.
Whilst it sadens me I am glad she's dead.

I'm so looking forward to next season. Me thinks we will see a rather brutal dexter with his killings and mabye even have the entire season about him being tracked again by his department

wait wait wait
is there two different episodes out?

cause I got something different than Dexter killing Deb

Spoiler:
trinity kills rita

anyone else?

I thought she was just taking a nice bath in red cordial.

I'm with you on that teq. Also there isn't two eps lol, thats just qgl at work.

is there two different episodes out?

there must be 3 different episodes, cos in mine Snape dies.

Hmm, I didn't like the ending to that at all.

8-(

I'm now confused

By didn't like you mean "holy wtf, why the hell.. nooooooo"? or "Worst. Ending. Ever" ?

I loved it, ending was one hell of a shock and something I didn't see coming. That said, this could be considered one of those "jump the shark" moments where if handled right, Dexter will continue to be one of the best shows on TV. Or if they balls it, then well........

I'm going with the dream thing too

nah, its not a dream. the show needed something like that to happen to make each season different. it cant continue on being the same family man.

dexter season 5... He's back.... And he's pissed...

i just wanted to say i haven't read any of this, goddamn spoilers.

Yeah I hope it's not a cop out and it's being a dream... this situation sets up the next season to be very interesting.

Can I watch Season 4 without watching the other seasons? I definitely saw the first few episodes, and I kinda watched most of season 1, I know about the ice truck killer and who he was, and I know what happens with the black bald cop and dexter's woman and things like that from seeing random eps on TV. It's just I'm having John Lithgow cravings.

And deny yourself the previous 3 seasons of what is arguably some of the best TV around currently? Whilst you can generally pick it up from anywhere, you'll be doing yourself a massive disservice by not watching the first 3 seasons.

It's just that there is a lot of death to watch through in 3 seasons, and it seems demotivating :/
I had the same problem with Six Feet Under, I could tell it was a great show, but it's not fun to crack on an episode of the bloody funeral corpse hour.

Its about time dexters fariytale life got a bit of a shock, a nice way to go about it imo!

I think the producers realised viewers were getting kind of sick of the juggling act of dexter. Next seasons should be good, back to the style of s1 but.. with anger!

for anyone who has read the books, this shouldn't come as a surprise

Spoiler:
he trains cody/astor/harrison to become just like him

Except I doubt they're going to pursue the Cody/Astor angle. The series seems to have taken elements from the first two books only, ignoring the third onwards. If they pull a Desperate Housewives and jump 5-10 years in to the future, then they might start the "Harrison = mini Dex" story angle (although I'd put pulling this sort of trick squarely in the realm of shark jumping).

isnt he possessed by a demon in the novels?

Dexter in the Dark had some supernatural stuff (but I'm only 3/4 the way through it, I've already read up what goes on online ages back), although I believe the author ditched most of this after people were getting turned off by it. They definitely go on about the Dark Passenger being something more, although I've always taken it to be a metaphor for his f***ed up subconscious..

Yeah, I doubt you can really use the books as any sort of guide as to where the show is going to go anymore.

Also, that was a f***ing awesome season, I found Season 3 a bit meh, but that was a f***ing awesome return to form.

John Lithgow's character made this season. Saddens me that all the good series are only 13eps long.

That's the best bit about Dexter - that it's only 12 episodes long. No filler or fudging to make up time, which makes all the difference I reckon..

I had no idea that this was based on a novel series. Looks like I know what i'm buying next payday

I'm rapidly running out of shows to watch.

Not a bad ending but SoA's season ending was a mile better than Dexters. I especially felt that Arthur's death was a little bit of a let down after all the build up.

Never really got into Dexter.

Strangely enough Dollhouse seems to be getting better? Almost as though someone kicked the writers in the arse and told them to f***ing get on with it.

Almost as though someone kicked the writers in the arse and told them to f***ing get on with it.

probably because its been axed and theres only 5 eps left. but yer its been pretty awesome since it came back from break.

probably because its been axed and theres only 5 eps left

That's actually good news if it means they are tying it down in that time frame. I don't want another series of tedious plot development that could be squeezed into 4 eps.

K-Mart has the Omnibus which collects the first 3 books currently for $22.75.

it was ok, but how did arthur find where he lived? mmmm

how did arthur find where he lived

Thats what I wondered. Finding out where he lived fair enough but Rita? Far fetched. Mabye it was another killer which season 6 will focus on dexter becoming obsessed with trying to find and kill them

I'm sure there was something at Deb's apartment that would indicate his new address.

Yeah they arent going to have arthur pick up the envelope with dexters new address on it are they, would have made what was going to happen a bit too obvious.

The series seems to have taken elements from the first two books only, ignoring the third onwards.

I skipped the third book after hearing it was s***, but season 4 definitely took elements from the 4th book. In the book, he unintentionally kills his first innocent, Debra gets attacked and hospitalised, and something else I can't remember right now.

I'm pretty bummed about that ending. I didn't want Rita to die. :(

Yeah, I was thinking it wasn't Arthur as well, because the way that the killer left Harrison sitting in the pool of blood, its like it was done by someone who knew Dexter and knew what happened to him as a kid.

And if it was Arthur, does that mean naked John Lithgow was in the bath fondling Rita? Cos I don't want to think about that :(

Spoiler:
so I watched this with my mrs and when she saw Rita in the tub she was blown away, she goes to me "and you know whats really messed up? he knew about her dead at home the whole time he was inside the kill room"



so true

of course it was Arhtur!?@

Boy Abducted, Woman killed in bath, man bashed over the head with hammer and the other one
he just abducted that boy not long before this bitch dies in a tub?

2 + 2 people

yeah it was arthur, baby in blood was just a coincidence added for dramatic effect.

I knew something was up leading up to the end, it was just too happy and nice to wrap up like that, I had a sickly feeling in my stomach something bad was about to happen.

Also, John Lithgow is really good at saying "c***" and putting some real venom behind it. Like in that thanksgiving episode, when his wife speaks out of turn and he tells her to shutup. It was so harsh and brutal and came out of nowhere that I laughed.

He should absolutely win an award for his part in that season.

I would expect him to win an Emmy, he was brilliant.

He does make a rather awesome villain doesn't he? I remember when I was in melbourne watching that thanksgiving episode and he spouted out that "shut up c***" line I, and everyone else I was watching it with just burst out laughing. Just totally took everyone by surprise

Well, the Golden Globe nominations are out and Dexter picked up 3: Best Drama, MCH for Best Actor (drama) and John Lithgow for Best Supporting Actor (drama). Here's hoping the guys actually pick up an award this year, as I think they've missed out the last few times. If not, MTV needs to have a special category in one of their irrelevant award shows for "Best usage of the word c*** in a TV series". Lithgow would definitely have it won hands down :P

yeah I pissed myself when he said that in the thanksgiving ep too

amazing.

all throughout this season i kept thinking to myself, god she's getting annoying.

LOL

Arther meeting Christine in the carpark and then goes back to his car and he screams "stupid f***ing c***!"

i just realised that the kid who stars as harrison is going to be one messed up little kid when he grows up irl.

cause he sat in red paint in a bathroom while his supporting actress played dead?

Yeah, the c*** outburst was hilarious. I hope Lithgow wins an award for his performance, because he was unbelievably awesome.

Awesome series, I reckon they can squeeze at least 2 more decent seasons out of Dexter.

Also I went to Brisbane writer's festival this year and got the author of the books to sign a copy for my gf, I listened to him talk and he was a bit of wank also she ended up not being able to read the books, said they were pretty average and different plot to the show fwiw.

They so need to make a prequel spin-off with Doakes and Masuka, that would f***ing rock. Masuka making vulgar comments and Doakes telling him to shut the f*** up.

Doakes should have his own shown - he was awesome.

not sure if anyone noticed this, but rita dying completed the cycle.

kid goes missing, woman commits suicide, man killed by a hammer, woman dies in bathtub.

yeah^ awesome, awesome show.

not sure if anyone noticed this, but rita dying completed the cycle. kid goes missing, woman commits suicide, man killed by a hammer, woman dies in bathtub.

I thought it was kid missing, bathtub, jumper, then bludgeoning? Which wouldn't really work, they all happened, just not in order. Dexter did finish it though.

kid goes missing, woman commits suicide, man killed by a hammer, woman dies in bathtub.

She died before Arthur got hammered, and the kid lived.

^^^ Maybe they'll find another kid missing in the next season?

I thought it was
1. Kid
2. Bathtub
3. Jumper
4. Bludgoning.

I thought it was the Trinity killer only 3 kills what's the kid?

just when i was getting bored with the show, they kill off the most annoying character... BRAVO!

There was pros and cons to Rita

Whiney bitch ... epic rack

Although lately I do agree the whiney bitch syndrome was in the lead.

her rack wasn't that great

epic body enough

Maybe they'll bring Rita back as Darla the Vampire.

You couldnt see her epic rack coz all she got to wear were f***ing sunday dresses!

u reckon rita will start appearing like dexter's dad does, giving him moral advice.

get the whole good angel/devil angle going

Hopefully she comes back as a naked angel

hopefully she never comes back. hated her character since season 2.

woah, just finished watching final ep then;

zomg, what a finish!

loved series 4, john lithgow was AWESOME, much better story than series 3

I hate to say it, but these 3 lines are exactly how I feel. Damn you spook.

<3 :)

Just finished watching the season. It was okay, but I don't think it was anything special.

Didn't really see the ending coming.

John Lithgow played a fantastic role in this season.

This season was a lot better than 3, but still has nothing on season 1 and 2

f***ing woah!!!

All hyped up and cheering for Team Dexter, all ready for him to go on his honeymoon and BAM - f***ing heartbreaking.

That was a really downer ending

f*** she was annoying though Kat

hint hint

I'm not sure which was worse, this shows ending or Californication. Both nightmare scenarios ha ha

Hoping season 5 follows some of the book story lines a bit more. After reading them all it's quite wierd how bloody different they are.

Spoiler:
LaGuerta dies at the end of book 1. Doakes isn't killed in book 2 but has both his hands, feet and his tongue cut off/out because of the killer. Astor and Cody are killers like dexter so he starts to train them in books 3 and 4


Really hoping they find a way of adding the whole children thing into the tv show. Now is about as good a time as any to run with it.

Ugh, wish you had specified that it was a book spoiler :( though I should have gathered that it was going to be from the rest of your post.

cali ending was pretty full on too;

good job after how s*** the penultimate episode was

f*** she was annoying though Kat

I don't give a s*** about Rita.
I nearly cried thinking about Harrison here all day by himself and what he went through.

Heavy ending!!!

are you being serious? that's a pretty serious emotional investment you've made in a tv show there.. fark.

He'll be fine, he wont remember it anyway

Really the first thing that went through my head was "trinitied" (in voice over from mortal combat)

I am a mother. I cry watching huggie ads

yer, theres some switch that gets thrown when you procreate.

it makes you get all sad and weepy and s*** when you see little ones going through tough times

i used to eat babies for breakfast but even i felt a little sad about poor harrison

fkn lol

I am a mother. I cry watching huggie ads

u cant use "oh im pregnant my hormons are crazy" all ur life kat

Being crazy due to hormones is not the same as getting teary watching things that involve children.
I don't agree with women using hormones as an excuse.

my mrs doesn't cry when she sees huggies ads, nor whilst watching television
I think you're missing a few brain cells

that diaper add with the baby "exploding" his ass all inside the car is f***in wrong. who the f*** stands there, in their work clothes, and smiles as the baby takes a piss in ur face and on ur clothes. NO1!

my mrs doesn't cry when she sees huggies ads, nor whilst watching television I think you're missing a few brain cells

Don't bring your wife into an argument unless you can handle s*** being said about her. Which I know you can't

Katzing. It's a rare but wonderful thing.

Lately, there's been more rage on QGL than usual.

what have you got Kat, cause I'm pretty sure the only person on this whole forum who has even met her is paveway

where as, the whole forum has seen all of your business

Was simply going to point out that maybe the problem is with your wife. maybe some PND? Maybe being a cold hearted bitch.

Who knows.

Spook backed me up on the emotional side of things - so maybe it's your wife that's the odd one out and not me?

To be honest I don't really care. You're the one who felt the need to make an issue out of it and put your wife up as a comparison.

good for you and your wife. i hope you guys are happy

hahaha this is easily the dumbest things you've said in ages
maybe she's not completely f***ing reh-tard and she can distinguish reality from fiction

she's the one with the psych degree though, so maybe I'll let her decide

teq: Honestly, you don't like me. I get it. But me finding fictional things sad doesn't make me f***ing retarded.

reh-tard

diagnosing PND from your keyboard based purely upon not crying over a TV show does

Dexter finale didn't have as much drama as this thread

I cried when the David Tennant version of Doctor Who died :(

And he was all like "But I don't want to go!" and I was like "I don't want you to go either!"

And i was like "Just f*** off already c***, and take Donna with you"

last edited by Bah at 18:25:17 03/Jan/10

teq is the new kat.

even worse

srsly stfu teq.

I have already f***ed all of your 72 virgins, they loved my dirty feet

teq is the new kat.

even worse

This!

On a more serious note though...if Season 5 is about Dexter getting a baby sitter...I'm not going to be happy...

its funny teq, if i were to say i f***ed your wife and your child is actually mine - that would really offend you.

but i wont go there!

ps. a2m, she loved it!

classy.

I cried when the David Tennant version of Doctor Who died :(

:( Best Doctor ever. Hopefully the new one gets his own personality and doesn't just become Tennant v2.

no it wouldn't greazy, cause muhammad came down from the clouds and told me that my baby will be the next prophet
and that I should wash his feet in the bath, not in a hand basin

then I was all like, aye f*** off - you're not real, I bought eckies not acid!@@!!@!@%!%!@%

stfu teq

hahaha

I <3 you guys, even if you are all completely f***ing delusional

try harder to offend me fgt`

pretty sure I've achieved what I set out to do

to not stfu?

nope the knob shiner hasnt done that.

Hoping season 5 follows some of the book story lines a bit more. After reading them all it's quite wierd how bloody different they are.

aurgh - I gotta start reading more fiction

I really want to get the Mrs into this show but she hasn't the stomach for it

so much <3 for the teq, I love you mulims too
