gah, GAH, oh fucking gah, people. THAT IS TELEVISION.
i'm having, like. tv-related afterglow right now. i know that's TMI but you'll just have to suffer with me, because honestly, TV hasn't been this awesome since twin peaks and i know i love supernatural and it's my primary fandom and it still is and always will be but there are eight jillion times an episode that i want to shriek at the writers, still, and i swear to god if i met the dexter writers i may, possibly, have to kiss them a little. bring them coffee.
DOAKES. when he said "dexter", i think i died a little. they showed his body in the fire, the explosion hitting him, aigh aigh oh, james, i will miss you SO MUCH. and poor maria, jesus, what's she gonna do now?
batista, as ever, i want ur babiez. pls to be hooking up with deb now that she is awesome and lundi (CRY CRY CRY I MISS U ALREADYS) is out of the picture.
lila. holy man. it was good while it lasted, baby, and that scene in the aquarium was so fucking surreal. dexter's monster personified, and he danced with her in the pale moonlight. of course she had to die in the end, of course it had to be dexter who did it, of course.
and of course dex himself, preparing to commit suicide. giving away all his possessions, saying goodbyes, doing the things he wanted to. and in the end, he chooses life, and it's deb that helps him come to it. running through the green green grass with rita and cody and astor, god. the credits montage. FUCKKKK, i can't take it.
i love this show, holy fuck.

When Dexter tracked Lila all the way to where she was hiding... I may have squeed.
There's nothing else on tv like this show.

God. Dexter. God.

Lila. Wow. That is one crazy bitch. I was so happy to see that postcard.
And I didn't want to get choked up at the end with Doakes' funeral (because I fucking hated the actor who played him--hack, but goddamnit if they didn't manage to make me like the bastard and feel bad for him. The only time I ever saw that character as vaguely human and realistically portrayed was when he was in the cage.
I really love that Dexter had happy sex with Rita. Such a change from the tentative, unable-to-get-it up boy in season 1. I guess I can thank Lila for that. And I actually yelled "What the fuck are you doing Dexter?" when he kissed her at the aquarium.
Lundy. Who would've thought? And I actually went a bit wibbly over Deb's reaction to making the choice at the taxi.
Fuck. That's good shit right there. Can't believe it's over.

Date: 2007-12-20 12:20 pm (UTC)If I thought that I could stand the suspense, I'd have killed Showtime and held out for the DVDs. Stupid, wonderful Michael C Hall and his *perfect* portrayal of Dexter Morgan! I can't tell you how much it annoys me that his Dexter is better than my imaginary, reading-the-books Dexter.
That never happens.
