Well if tonight was the season finale of Dexter then i'm somehwat upset. There are several unanswered questions, I know they can start the next season off right where this one ended but still. And since when does Dexter strangle people? I know he wanted people to think that the skinner killed him, but I don't remember the skinner ever strangling anybody. What about Dexters wedding? What about George King? Somebody please explain this to me.

It isn't the finale. The next episode, the finale, he has to deal with Ramone and the wedding. He strangled him because Miguel strangled Ellen Wolf. I'm confused since he killed him already, he can't flay him in the same manner the Skinner did everyone else so how will it get pinned on the Skinner. I don't like how by developing everyone's character, they simply get them a date.

Ok, well now that I know it wasn't the finale that makes things better. I can now not wait for next week.

Isn't Deborah going to be curious that he asked her to be his best man and then Miguel dies leaving a spot for a new best man?

Yeah that could be weird. Dexter has really gotten himself into a bit of trouble here. I still find it weird that he strangled him...

Anybody here old enough to remember The Wonder Years? I loved that show when I was in late-Elementary School and I would also occasionally watch it when I was a high school freshman (it aired from I think 1988 to 1993). Of course, now that I'm 26 years old, I can't exactly relate to it the way I could as a kid. But I still think it was a great show.

Here's an episode link on Youtube:

Ehhh, I can see where you're coming from. I never found it to be nearly as preachy or insulting to your intelligence as your average government-sponsored after school special, though. That was probably one of the best things about the show. It handled these kinds of situations maturely, without being overly moralistic or sappy.

Season finale of Dexter was good. Too bad we now have to wait for the next season. Thank god for Rogers On Demand, I can watch any episode from season 3 whenever I want. If I am not mistaken, season 2 is also still on demand. Maybe I will watch them back to back.

That finale was so amazing. I just finished watching it. Making him actually have emotions is so awesome and that dialogue between him and King was soooo badass not to mention the following fight scene. It wrapped up quite nicely. For starting out slow, it may be the best season just because of the last few episodes.

The only problem I have with the fight scene is that it was over so quick. Plus how the hell did Dexter get out of the building with the cops ther, get to the hospital and get a cast on is arm, change his clothes and make it to the wedding before dark? He must be a very fast runner. Or not live too far away from the abandoned factory. Anyway, I am nitpicking. It was awesome, and I can't wait to see what happends next season. Especially with the blood dripping on Ritas dress.

I think it was really early in the morning. The skinner clubbed him around eight at night and so he woke up around seven in the morning? Oh but everyone was at work and yeah they just stretched the time but it worked. Oh and the short fight is more realistic, especially with a broken hand? Throwing him in front of the car was so awesome.

Top chef is so awesome :wub:

Also, anyone still watch Heroes? The show is flawed, but it is pretty entertaining and I still like to watch it. The season finale was good and I'm actually excited for the next Volume or whatever.

traptunderice · **Posted:** Fri Dec 19, 2008 4:27 am

I kept up with Top Chef when it first aired but it's basically the same every season and the contestants are usually douchebags leaving you no one to root for.

I just started watching Heroes this season. It is extremely flawed but hopefully with teh changes they're making next season will fix that. By killing everyone off and trying to return everyone to normal lives, the show will become better.

Been watching Season 1 of Californication lately; a funny, if sometimes overly dramatic, overall good show, though nothing special. Duchovny does a good job, and I do like the fact that all the books he's written take their titles from Slayer albums. :dio:

I'm thinking about watching that show. Do you think I'd like it if I'm into more dramas than comedies?

I'm 9 episodes in, and I'd say the drama only starts getting good at around episode 8, though there are some good moments in earlier episodes. Generally, though, so far I've enjoyed it much more for the comedy than the drama, which has gotten cheesy at points. Still recommended, just don't expect anything too amazing.

Is anyone looking forward to the new season of 24?

Yes.

Everything after season three has been pretty shitty, but I'm still hoping that they'll recapture some of the awesomeness that is seasons one and two.

Also, looking forward to seeing the ending of Battlestar Galactica like crazy.

1 episode in. I thought Americans didn't like seeing breasts on their TV?
