Dexter: Resurrection Takes Like a Storm
Dexter: Resurrection, available on Paramount+, brings a new perspective to the legendary character’s story. Set after the events of Dexter: New Blood, the series has been a hit since its premiere. With a 100% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes, the series has been met with enthusiasm from both fans and critics.
Why Is the New Dexter Series So Popular?
Dexter: Resurrection begins immediately after the events of New Blood. Dexter Morgan, shot by his own son Harrison and put into a coma, wakes up weeks later. Learning of Harrison’s disappearance, Dexter confronts his regrets and sets off for New York. His goal is to find his son and make amends for his past actions.
But this journey isn’t easy. As Dexter’s past gradually comes back to haunt him, Angel Batista from Miami Metro enters the story, leaving questions unanswered. In this new season, where father and son confront their darker sides, viewers are treated to a deeper, more dramatic, and psychologically intense narrative.
Critics are praising the series’ pacing, dark humor, and character depth. In addition to receiving a perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes, 92% of viewers have given it a positive review. Michael C. Hall’s performance is once again a standout, while newcomers like Peter Dinklage and Uma Thurman add a unique dynamic to the series.
With Clyde Phillips back at the helm, the project marks the kind of return Dexter fans have been waiting for for years. The script, dramatic structure, and visual atmosphere that surpassed New Blood elevate Resurrection from a mere sequel into a truly remarkable production. The series is currently available on Paramount+.
