Key background

After more than a decade since the original series wrapped and a short-lived sequel in Dexter: New Blood, the franchise returns again – this time with a series that’s already outpacing its predecessors critically.

Dexter: Resurrection picks up with Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall) recovering from a near-fatal gunshot wound inflicted by his son, Harrison. Alone and unsure of his son’s whereabouts, he follows a trail to New York City, only to discover that the past he tried to bury is catching up.

Angel Batista (David Zayas) resurfaces (apparently still a big fedora guy) from Miami Metro, pushing Dexter to confront the wreckage of his old life just as a new wave of danger takes shape. The cast includes returning names from the original run – James Remar as Harry Morgan – and expands with Peter Dinklage, Uma Thurman, Krysten Ritter, and Neil Patrick Harris joining in new roles.

Critics have responded positively, with early Rotten Tomatoes scores placing Resurrection at a franchise-best 100% “fresh” rating.

Reviewers are noting a return to form under original showrunner Clyde Phillips, who previously helmed the show’s first four seasons.
