So, any Dexter fans here? How did you like the first episode?

(This thread will contain spoilers for episodes that have already aired., but please avoid spoilers about episodes not aired yet, even if they were on previews.)

For a moment I thought that this season could be actually about Dexter running away and trying to start a new life (or being hunted by the FBI). Looks like that's not what they are going to do.
It looks like they wil keep Julie Benz around for flashbacks for a while.

I couldn't really say what I would do if I had to tell my kids that her mother died. I don't really think my handling of it would be any better then that of Dexter. Does that make me a sociopath or Dexter normal?

I liked it. It was kind of letting the audience have a chance to say goodbye, and sets the scene for this season. I don't think there'll be a cop out and the kids sent to stay with the grandparents, allowing Dexter to be a single bachelor killer again. Much of the tension in the show arises from Dex trying to be normal and that would be too easy.
