Dexter's Inner Voice (voice) Simply put, not good. The unimaginative and rather cheesily titled "Dexter Original Sin" is, unlike the original series, about as subtle as a meat clever. The sense of light, sophisticated handling associated with the original series, is largely absent.Instead, the treatment is over the top, at times bordering on the ridiculous. We see Dexter looking at a girly mag but no he's really fawning over news cuttings of serial killer Ted Bundy wedged between its pristine pages. Oh and his sister ends up passed out drunk at a party about to be raped but after Dexter intercedes to save her, she can still apparently "take care of herself".

It's worth it. The casting has some eerily similar actors. Like Angel and the lab partner, I mean holy crap, it's hard to believe it's not the same actors thrown in a time machine. Deb on the other hand, what is going on there? I mean, Deb in the contemporary Dexter show is borderline anorexic. This younger actor is chubby and gets more overweight for each episode. I mean, wow, in episode 10! How did they not instruct her to lose weight as part of the contract. Deb is my favorite character in the contemporary Dexter, and Jen…
