So I thought it was funny that during the Showtime presentation last week, the president of the network said he has no regrets with the way Dexter ended. That the idea of killing off Dexter was never even mentioned.
That is because THE EXECUTIVES MADE IT CLEAR TO THE WRITING ROOM THAT IT WAS NOT AN OPTION YOU ****! Showtime executives wanted a Dexter spin off and the only way to keep that going was keep Dexter alive.
More fun stuff from Showtime: The showrunners at Masters of Sex (which is amazing and you should watch it) had a four season window to tell the story they wanted to tell. Once again, Showtime executives have told them to stretch that out to 6 seasons.
So when Masters of Sex starts spinning its wheels in Season 2, you'll know why.
