Season 1 Review:
Dexter: Original Sin gets off to a rough start, reminding us that there was little need for a prequel about Dexter Morgan – so much that’s in this premiere episode was already depicted or explained in the original series. There’s also a struggle to overcome the “Dexter Babies” vibe given off by the new actors.

Season 1 Review:
One of the interesting things about Original Sin is that we already know a great deal about Dexter Morgan from the original series, including how his father Harry shaped his control over his “Dark Passenger” and how the murder of his mother shaped his personal demons. So seeing it all played out sometimes feels a bit like watching a community theater version of a play you know by heart. It also doesn’t help at all that several of the major players seem miscast or poorly directed at best.

Season 1 Review:
Gibson lacks some of the charisma Hall brought to the original Dexter, and without that pull, it's sometimes hard to root for a guy who doesn't feel much of anything except for an obsession with blood. The arrival of a new, younger Dexter back on our screens shouldn't be this dull.
