Lyla is gorgeous naked.

I kind of hope Dexter gets caught. As great as this show is, that seems to be the only end that makes sense.

However, at the end of last season's finale I got the impression that Deb is now aware of the true Dexter. But they've made no mention or even hinted at that this season. I guess my impression was wrong.

The question Deb asked walking in on Dexter...

Best line I've heard in a long time.

Lyla is a psycho. Makes her all the more intriguing.

Something about Deb having a crush on Lundy is disturbing. She was relating the guy to her father in earlier episodes.

Doakes is going to die.

Doakes is going to ... be framed.

Awesome..awesome show. My favorite show on cable by far. It just gets better and better, Dexter know how to manipulate and get things to work out how he needs them too.

Has anyone read the Dexter books that this show is based on? I plan on picking them up soon..I think there are 3 novels.

this show is phenomenal. I really liked the first season, but knew what the twist was the second a certain character was introduced. Even with that being said, I still thought the show was one of the better things on TV. The second season though? It blows away the first season IMO. I have no idea where this thing's headed.

I couldn't agree more!
I just watched last weeks episode and I can't wait for the next one.
I have no idea where this show is going to go.
Great, inspired, television!

I want to watch the last three episodes of the season now, not over the next three weeks.

Somebody make it happen.

seriously - I was actually SHOCKED when the preview for next week said there were three more weeks left. I thought at MOST two and actually thought last night's was the penultimate episode. How much crazier is this **** gonna get? I mean, it's INSANE as it is right now.

This has to be the most entertaining show on TV, its only flaw, and its a very small one, is that Dexter's sister Deborah isn't much in the acting department.

I can't wait to see how they resolve the Dokes(Doaks?) stuff. IMO there is no way out that doesn't involve the death of him or Dexter.

okay, I'm gonna call my shot - I don't know exactly how this is gonna happen, but Deb is gonna realize Dexter's the Butcher and she's gonna save his ass someway or another. That convo with LaGuerta about doing something for someone you care about, even though it might hurt your career was a plant for everything that follows.

Wasn't Deb awake during the finale last season when Dexter and his brother were talking about killling people? When his brother was trying to talk him into killing Deb?

I could swear her eyes were open during that.

Lyla is dead. Doakes has to die, unless they follow through with the planting of the killing kit in the bay. A Doakes trial for season 3?

was anyone else a little letdown by the finale? the build up was so intense all season long and the episode was solid, but it wasn't mind blowing to me.

No letdown for me.

Doakes dead. Lyla dead. Dexter still free.

I thought for sure he was going to KO Deb. Would've added some exceptional drama to the show.

But it was wrapped decent enough to continue for at least another season.

It'll interesting next season to see who/what the bad guy will be.

I thought the finale was ok - solid, but no cliff-hanger to make me anxious for next season.

still - this is a fantastic show - love it.

What cliff hanger from season one was there to get you anxious about season two?

I personally thought it was great. Loose ends were tied up. Doakes, Lyla, Rita, and Deb all came to satisfying conclusions IMO.

I'm pretty fired up for next season already.

AFI named Dexter one of the top 10 TV shows for 2007. I'm so looking forward to next season. They wrapped up everything nice and neat, its funny how things just have a way of working out for Dexter.

Here is the list of the top 10 shows from AFI...

"This year, “Ugly Betty,” serial killer thriller “Dexter,” Chris Rock’s “Everybody Hates Chris,” NBC’s high school football drama “Friday Night Lights,” “30 Rock,” HBO’s relationship drama “Tell Me You Love Me,” Sundance favorite and British political drama “Longford,” AMC’s depiction of 1960’s ad agency executives ”Mad Men,” and long time critical darling “The Sopranos” all made the cut
