Was Dexter ever good? (part 1)

The complete deep dive is out now! Watch here:    • was dexter ever good?   Dexter is a serial drama about a serial villain, a police procedural with a cynical eye on the cops, a dark comedy without anything that funny, and many other buzzwords. Since the show ended over a decade ago, the consensus online is that the first four seasons were unparalleled high art - leaving everything to fall apart in the second half. Is this fair? Is Dexter a great drama, or is it instead closer to the police procedurals it deconstructs?
