Dexter: What Could The Harrison Spin-Off Series Look Like?

gamerant.com:

Dexter: New Blood, the sequel/reboot series of the Showtime series titled Dexter, concluded at the beginning of this year. As fans of the series will remember, the season ended with Dexter being killed semi-reluctantly by his son, Harrison, a dark and unhappy ending for the unlikely anti-hero.

Writer Clyde Phillips clarified this creative decision by saying that Dexter is a serial killer and, therefore, it would make no sense for him to have a happy ending. Many fans were unhappy with this conclusion and pointed to some of the character’s more human traits as evidence that he’s not that bad of a person, but regardless of these feelings, the ending closed this chapter of Dexter. Despite this mixed reception, Showtime are actively developing a spin-off of New Blood starring Harrison Morgan, but the definitive nature of the ending of the last episode leaves some confusion as to the plot of a potential new season. Still, some clues remain as to what a Harrison spin-off of Dexter: New Blood could be about.

The whole point of reviving the infamous TV anti-hero in Dexter: New Blood was to give fans a more satisfying ending than the original series did. The original show ended with the title character’s sister, Deb, dying and Dexter himself isolating away from everyone else, abandoning his son in the process. Star Michael C. Hall admitted that the first ending wasn’t to his liking, but backed the creative decisions seen at the conclusion of New Blood, which interestingly doubled down on the themes of the original ending. Dexter being painted as an inherently bad character after years of moral grayness and ambiguity happened in both endings, which some viewers didn’t exactly appreciate.
